Oh wow I had some vague recollection about Berry as a name but…a quick scroll suggests he was on palliative care for a bit. Sad to read that the account will be closed as well so it’s not that fans who may recall him in the future can revisit…rest in peace.
I remember hearing about this earlier when it was first announced. It’s pretty sad to hear. Berry was one of the of the few early bands that introduced loud Kei. In case for those who haven’t heard the ep.
he was one of my favorite bandmen. if i remember correctly, he was the main composer and influence for many songs of the bands he played in. the style and riffs in bands such as ℃, Schwein and Corpse Corps are so simple yet effective. one of the best composers in the genre that now seems to be called lout kei.
in an old interview for ℃ when asked what his childhood dream was he answered “world domination”. he did achieve that people from all over the world listen and write about him.
he can be proud. may he rest in peace.
curiosity got me and went from the last tweets. Shouldn’t have, the whole details broke my heart and made me feel so bad. Hopefully he’s resting well now.
