My morbid fascination with music

[Alex]

Now I find this a bit strange but quite a lot of the music I listen to the singer is dead or the band has a deceased member, so my question is, is this weird or is it the mystique that these musicians have that gets me interested???

generally speaking those bands are good

well yeah, but I mean I decided to check out Avenged Sevenfold because I read The Rev had died

depends.

If you listen to a song you like then realise all the band are alive then kill them just so you can become a fan. That's weird.

Well admittedly I wasn't born when most of the band I listen to had started out ( The Doors, Jimi Hendrix Experience, Joy Division, RHCP) or I wasn't into that type of music when I was growing up

If that was the case, Chris Cornell, Eddie Vedder and a couple of others would be dead

There are plenty of dead shitty musicians.

My favorite band is Mayhem. I think I have the market cornered on dead musicians....

 

[Shadowmancer]

Nah I think Body Count does

The originally Lynard Skynard no? Did they all die?

No not all them just three or four in the plane crash, and then just recently their piano player, even then there are still a few people from the original line-up left.
