I feel ashamed to regret ever discovering him its not fair its not his fault. Obivously i still love him and im not any less interested. But i dont know what other emotion to feel. I think the answer is held by the other 4. Sending hugs

a loss like this is painful, especially when it's someone so impactful and yet someone we didn't know personally at all. it makes it harder and sometimes confusing but it's normal to have conflicting emotions like that i think. i feel silly for being so emotional but i can't stop crying every time i listen to their music. it hurts so much to think about how he is just gone now. sending hugs back <3

he meant the world to me. logically i know what happened is reality but a part of me is still rejecting it. it hurts too much to think about. i miss him already. i'm mad at myself for not atempting to see them live sooner, when my finances were in a better place. it's someting i'll never forgive myself for.

BUCK-TICK's Atsushi Sakurai Passes Away at 57 Due to Brainstem Hemorrhage

An Emotional Farewell to the Iconic Vocalist During a Fan Club-Exclusive Performance

The music world is in mourning as Atsushi Sakurai, the charismatic vocalist of the iconic Japanese rock band BUCK-TICK, passed away unexpectedly at the age of 57. The devastating news was officially confirmed, marking a sudden and shocking end to the artist's three-and-a-half-decade-long career.

On the fateful night of October 19th, Sakurai was performing at the fan-club exclusive event "BUCK-TICK FISH TANKer's ONLY 2023" at KT Zepp Yokohama in Kanagawa. Unfortunately, due to his deteriorating health, the performance had to be halted. Despite being rushed to the hospital, Sakurai could not be saved and passed away at 23:09 due to a brainstem hemorrhage. The family, respecting their privacy in this trying time, conducted a private funeral. However, according to the band's management, a memorial to honor Sakurai will be organized at a later date.

BUCK-TICK, composed of Atsushi Sakurai, Hisashi Imai (Guitar), Hidehiko Hoshino (Guitar), Yutaka Higuchi (Bass), and Toll Yagami (Drums), debuted in 1987. They rose to fame in 1988 with the hit single « JUST ONE MORE KISS », propelling them to national stardom. Celebrating their 35th anniversary this year, the band had just hosted a grand anniversary concert in their hometown of Gunma in September. They were just commencing their 36th year in the music industry when this tragic incident occurred.

Sakurai's untimely demise has sent shockwaves through the fan community and the music industry at large. It's a loss that leaves a void difficult to fill. The late singer was renowned for his mesmerizing vocals and enigmatic stage presence, qualities that have touched the lives of countless fans globally. His voice will forever resonate in the hearts of those who admired him. While the band's future remains uncertain, Sakurai's rich legacy ensures that he will continue to inspire generations to come.
