It’s been less than a week since the music industry lost the up and rising stars of Defying Atmosphere and already tragedy has struck again. This time it was one of Pride’s artists, the cellist from the heavy metal band MANTICORE, known as Superbia Squalo. MANTICORE’s manager tweeted the news late Friday night from a Moscow hospital. Squalo had reportedly been in a bar fight and sustained serious injuries. Shortly after arriving at the emergency room doctors pronounced him dead.

This weekend has been rough for Sevetop Entertainment and the producers of LBC’s Fairy Trials as local network officials discuss whether or not to continue airing reruns of this season’s episodes as originally planned. The show itself has all the ratings and fanbase to keep its Friday night time slot throughout the summer. This isn’t a discussion about cancellation or the next season premiering in Fall. No this is a serious decision in the wake of tragedy.

It is with a sad and heavy heart that we must confirm that three of the four current members of Defying Atmosphere, one of Virgo Records' most popular bands and a staple on the music scene throughout the world, have all been confirmed dead due to a bus crash early this morning.

According to numerous official sources both in Virgo Records and in the Europa Union Police, the final radio transmissions from the band's tour bus indicate that guitarist Greg Universe was under the influence of various drugs, including PCP, all of which were found in the wreckage alongside his body. Its believed he snapped the bus driver's neck as a result, and was subdued by fellow bandmembers who tried to regain control of the tour bus. Unfortunately, they were unable to and the bus plunged down side the Ural Bluffs, 50 miles from Moscow.

Our hearts go out to the families of Greg Universe, Lenneth Valkyrie, and Reimu Hakurei, and we will continue to update you on every and all details on this tragedy as they emerge.

[ That's right. This time, there's no mention of being let go, though nothing else, either. Just a vaguetweet with one of Genos' most popular promoshots that somehow reads almost like a bitter epitaph, though there's no possible reason for that, right? Musicians come and go all the time, right? Squalo's just being dramatic, right? ]

[ His band might have
shoved him into a closet, but they didn't take away his phone, so here we go. Oh, he's upset about Kido, too, but they were never quite as close. A guy's gotta have priorities with his PA-ness after all. And this kind of honor mention is still better than making someone else suffer for his open lashing out. ]

Placing Flowers Over Bones... Or Not?

By: Taykin Flouride


It's been almost a month since the band Flowers Over Bones disappeared and was later declared dead. The up and coming band was no stranger to tragedy. Trouble started when Angel Ramsay disappeared a month before their own disappearance. After much investigation, we have discovered the truth behind Flower Over Bones' exist from the stage.

The band's ties to the mafia had proved too strong to continue their musical careers provided by Edward Blanche, CEO of Virgo Entertainment. Gabby Guns first broke the story with the piece about the band's mafia background, and we can't forget the ancient Okamoto vs Inoue feud revealed in an earlier article. This is just another chapter in the band's long saga of criminal history.

Angel Ramsay was the canary in the coal mine. Their beloved, quiet manager was murdered in cold blood. Flowers Over Bones wanted revenge. Blanche provided the band with a new manager, one with a background in dark alley dealings and assassinations in hopes of appeasing the mob. It would benefit him to continue being in the mob's good favor,and the manager could deal with Ramsay's murder. However, it seems that was not enough for the band.

Now, Virgo Entertainment claims the band to have perished, yet we haven't seen the bodies. They're not dead until we see the bodies. Has Blanche cut his ties with the mob, or is he providing the band with a cover story? There has been a number of firings and disappearances in the music world, including ones related to the band's past like Keith Goodman of the Inoue Clan. Perhaps Flowers Over Bones are hiding Tommy Guns in their instrument cases now.

The truth is that Oikawa had gone out, with his body guard, claiming to want some exercise stopped by the library, quickly copied and pasted the list from a flash drive, and thrown it away as soon as he was done. There was no copy on his personal computer. Once done he headed to his physical therapy appointment. ]
