I'm So Gone: Jay Reatard (1980-2010)


This is kind of fucked up. My first post on this blog was lambasting Jay Reatard for his fall from greatness and now the fucker is actually dead. While I can't say I am too sad about this happening since he was the epitome of a drugged out asswipe, his music did make an impact on me as a music fan. Blood Visions, the whole Reatards discography, and a plethora of various other bands and side projects he did are very worthy efforts and are among the best in rock n roll. I want to forget Reatard as a person but I will not forget the albums.
