I just heard about this. Awful. I feel sick to my stomach. XO is one of my favorite records.
I guess I empathize quite a bit because I've had such problems with depression, social anxiety, low self-esteem, etc. over the years. But it breaks my heart to see another great soul give in. Nick Drake, Ian Curtis, Jim Ellison, Mathew Fletcher... now Elliot. Sad. Truly sad.
