We couldn't believe the news we read today. Mick Karn sadly lost his battle with cancer. The following message comes from his website www.mickkarn.net:

"It's with profound sadness that we have to inform you that Mick finally lost his battle with cancer and passed away peacefully at 4.30pm today, 4th January 2011 at home in Chelsea, London. He was surrounded by his family and friends and will be deeply missed by all."

He is survived by his wife Kyoko, and his son Metis. May his suffering be at an end, may he find eternal peace. Donations may still be made in support of his family here

Thank you.

With great sadness we have to inform you that our good friend Axel passed away on Friday, 6th August 2010 after a long battle with cancer. More than just an able guitarist and album cover designer he was a great person to be with. I had the pleasure of playing with him in the band loomer for five years and he also did the wonderful covers for our album "Final Frames" as well as for our promo "First Frames". We will miss him a lot.

Thank you for all the wonderful moments.
