R.I.P. Mark Linkous a.k.a. Sparklehorse

Mark Linkous took his own life Saturday evening. For years, apparently, he straddled the line between creation and self destruction, reflecting that struggle in his musical tone, but not necessarily in his lyrics. Linkous made the perfect mood music for empty, darkened rooms, and his talents will be missed.
