Well this is what I've just heard anyway. I don't have any useful links yet to Coil websites but I'm sure they're easily found. Apparently Jon Balance died on Saturday night after a drunken fall down stairs.
I'm only an on and off Coil fan personally; nevertheless I feel quite shocked and mournful. Sad in fact.

Unlike the other two in the summary, i had no idea who Jon Balence was - But outside of the BBC bullitins i had very little idea who DOB was either...

Here is the link thingy for the website announcement:

I didn't know who the ODB person was either.

Of course everyone will assume from the description that this was either a suicide or a lover's quarel. It definitely says something about the problem with drinking all afternoon.

Ho hum. Thought these things came in 3's. Can they stop now?
