Chris Cornell - dead at 52

Kinda shocking news this morning, apparently died after a show in Detroit. No word yet on cause of death.

Awesome talent and one of those just freaking cool guys.

He had a heroin issue way back. They say, that demon never leaves you alone. Hopefully it wasn't the cause.

I am gutted and devastated. I've seen Chris Cornell solo, Soundgarden, and Audioslave. To me, he had one of the best rock voices in world. Incredible writing, especially his solo stuff, and an incredible person. I'm sad and angry that drugs played a huge part in his death. Lane Staley, Scott Weiland, and now Chris are all gone because of drugs. Fucking senseless. This one really stings.

Not many left is there, 4 of the best already gone from that era.

I did not realise his drug issues, what a massive talent though.

Being a big fan of the grunge movement as it really got big right after I graduated from high school, this hits home. Another loss of a music icon.

Suicide. Why Chris why?? I don't understand this one. There didn't seem to be any lows right now. His demons must have gotten to him. Just brutally sad.

Chris Cornell could sign the paint off the walls. Truly one of the best voices in hard rock. Such a loss. Whatever it was, it wasn't worth it.

No matter how dark things seem, the sun will always rise again.
