Oh man....

[DJ Saint]

Sad indeed. And wasn't it just last year the loss of John Balance? (EDIT: Balance died in 2004)

Will have to throw on some Coil today...

Thanks for the news

Sleazy was only 55. That was still too young to pass. He had plans of releasing a Coil codex containing a TON of material from Coil and related projects, including some of the works that have now fallen out of print (and with Coil, there are many releases that fetch high sums out in the world due to their non-availability).

RIP Peter. It just is.
