Taken from BBC: www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-39960066Chris Cornell has died at the age of 52, his representatives have confirmed. He was best known as the lead singer in Soundgarden and Audioslave, and also performed the theme song to the 2006 James Bond film Casino Royale. In a statement, Cornell's representative Brian Bumbery said his death was "sudden and unexpected". It also said the family would be working closely with the medical examiner to determine the cause and asked for privacy. Cornell died shortly after playing a concert with Soundgarden in Detroit on Wednesday evening. The show was part of a wider tour and the group had a number of live dates scheduled for later this month.

Fuuuuck. It feels like just yesterday Scott Weiland died.
The grunge gods are dwindling. Not many are left from that era. Jerry Cantrell, Dave Grohl, and Vedder are some of the last ones.

"Sudden and unexpectedly" sounds like there is a story behind that one...

What a fucking bummer man, and now stories popped up where the police is investigating this as a suspected suicide.

One of the saddest things I could ever read waking up. Guy was the voice of my generation, one amazing artist, and a truly unique talent. Soundgarden was one of the first bands i ever saw live on the 'Superunknown' tour. I will never forget witnessing 'Fell On Black Days' live, that performance changed me as a music fan, and at the time, a musician. Rest in peace.

52 is way too young. Such a shame, what a great talent. I've never been a super fan of Audioslave or Soundgraden but his iconic presence in the music scene was felt and his loss greatly saddens me.

It's insane because his last tweet seemed so happy who would have thought. RIP to him such a tragedy.
