You know what, I'm surprised. It wasn't even that long ago where I was talking about how of the grunge vocalists, that Kurt Cobain, Layne Staley and Scott Weiland were all dead, and now Chris Cornell has died too!

Update: After getting more information, it seems that it was a suicide, specifically by hanging:

Horrible. He wasn't even that old. -_-

Yeah, it was a very unexpected death! He was just talking about a concert in Detroit when it happened.

When Scott Weiland, my fav, died a year and a half ago, Chris Cornell did a nice tribute to him:

Damn! That's terrible news!

He had such a strong voice. Loved his Bond theme - You Know My Name.
