i had thought about posting about this but figured someone had already covered it. fucking drag. love Stereolab and hate to see this happen to them and to her.

I've said it before and I'll say it again:
I don't like to hear about anyone dying, but why is it always someone who is real talented and not some recycled crap artist??

[invisibleplanet]

Mary Hansen was indeed a talented woman artist. stereolab's songs were full of soul and meaning. their music innovative and fresh.

do u know their work well, sheridan?

[Sheridan]

I wouldn't say I know their work well. I myself don't actually own any of their cds, but one of my good friends is really into them and I heard quite a bit of their work through him. he would put it on while we played chess and I quite enjoyed it. I should get off my but and go and grab a cd or two.
