R.I.P. Mark Linkous

posted by The Joe

Sparklehorse played an enormous part in my serious introduction into music, right around 2001, and since then Mark Linkous has been one of my deeply treasured artists. It’s a Wonderful life remains one of my all-time favorite albums that really helped shape my tastes, and as a blogger who’s read by more than three people, I feel it’s my duty to eloquently state that this just fucking sucks.

You will be missed, sir.

“It’s a Wonderful Life”

“Apple Bed”

“Sea of Teeth”
