I have miss misery on mp3 bassy
 
yep, he sang on "Tore up & broke"
which is indeed on Plastic Fang

in an interview around that time Jon Spencer said that Elliot was a big fan and that he wanted his new album to rock more
 
I suddenly find it eerie that "needle in the hay" is playing during the scene in Tenenbaums when Luke Wilson attempts suicide.........
 
I was thinking of that scene too EP

I'm very frustrated and...almost...angry now

why?

why did he do this?
fuck you for doing this

fuck you for taking away your brilliant music....was it worth it?

I wish he thought before he did it
:( :( :cry:
 
Just heard Miss Misery on the radio driving back from picking up lunch.
Will never understand how someone decides suicide is their best option.
RIP
 
yeah, I heard he died of one stabwound to the heart, thats sad creepy stuff. Stuff done by someone in a very bad state no doubt.....
 
I would also like to send a big FUCK YOU out to the media and angry fans who, rather than give him love and support these past two painful years, harassed him and damned him

I feel that total lack of support is part of this tragedy
