John Balance of Coil, died in his home on Saturday. He fell from the top landing of his home, landing on his head. Nought but a tragic accident.
I don't know if anyone else here really pays much attention to Coil, and I didn't for a long time, aside from the amazing work they did with NIN remixes and the like, but I started to pay more attention to them lately and this does sadden me greatly.
Seems like another of those weeks when everyone is dying...

Gonna have a drink for him tonight!

We are greatly saddened to have to you that at about 5.30 pm Saturday Nov 13th, Jhonn Balance, was killed in an accident at home.

Under the influence of alcohol he fell from the first floor landing, hitting his head on the floor some 15ft below.

Peter/Sleazy who was in the front room heard the noise, came out investigate and found him unconscious, though still breathing.

Balance was rushed to hospital, where his condition deteriorated, and he died soon after, without ever regaining consciousness.

There is no suggestion that this event was in any way deliberate, in fact, anything other than a tragic accident.

Unusually, Balance had been cheerfull during the day, and was looking forward to seeing Ian at the weekend, and working on new recordings this week
