Good call with the Mayhem post.

I can't really beat that, but i always found Mark Sandman's death quite interesting.

He was the lead singer and bassist for the band Morphine. He died onstage in Italy of a heart attack. He was 46 years old.
The strange thing was that before he got into bands he worked as a taxi driver in Boston and one night one of his punters stabbed him in the heart. He survived, but was obviously never the same health-wise.
If you haven't heard of Morphine, listen to them NOW! They are truly something else.

Also, R.I.P. to Peter Steele from Type O Negative- not really an "interesting" death (it feels so wrong to type those words) but a great big gorgeous giant of a man.
