What's a band that you like that was gone way too soon? (self.asklemmy)

For example, a band like Joy Division. Two masterpiece albums in the form of Unknown Pleasures and Closer, and the untimely death of Ian Curtis cut it all short. They were even heading into the direction that New Order eventually went in, and it would have been interesting to see what Ian Curtis would have done if they fully made the leap into electronic music while he was still alive.

Well said. I also think people would dig more of their catalog/non mainstream recordings. Brad's voice was magic imo.

Pure gold, without a doubt. I've seem them with Rome and while I do like his style, it's just not the same. I was supposed to see them right before Brad's passing.

Rome is no Bradley, but he's excellent in his own respect.
