I believe it was 10 years ago today that we lost Alex Soria. I didnt know him well in life, just a nodding acquaintance, but his death hit me hard, especially as Id already lost five or six other friends & peers to various kinds of misadventure & ill luck in 2004. I was semi-consciously scanning the paper over someones shoulder in a morning rush-hour metro car, when I saw a promo pic of this Nils line-up: cool, I thought, their stuff must be being re-released; then, I saw the words found dead. The following Thursday, there he was on the cover of the Mirror, & didnt know whether to cry or puke: is that what it takes to get noticed? https://youtube/watch?v=6zASecaCtR0
