Vo.喰榴 (Ryuketsu), also known as JEKYLL (ジキル) has passed away on march 13 from an illness. A funeral was held only for his family and friends. He was famous for being the vocalist of bands such as エルム (ELM), KAMIKAZE BOYZ, Ma’die Küsse and more recently 流れる血は君のために (Nagareru Chi wa Kimi no tame ni). ![64367-musician](https://forum.jrockone.com/uploads/default/original/2X/f/fb12850e1ed210be11766b8ca1813563008402e2.jpeg) ![21253-vocalist-casuga](https://forum.jrockone.com/uploads/default/original/2X/8/8af04dde344b83193888ca420801c2cd685c36f9.jpeg) [https://twitter.com/elm\_dream/status/1372412474545242116](https://twitter.com/elm_dream/status/1372412474545242116) ---

This is so fucking disheartening. Jekyll has been around for so long, it’s like we lost a legend. I was never really into Elm and I never listened to his past bands, but I could tell the dude was fucking committed to his craft. I remember when he posted his flyer collection on twitter and I got super jealous of rare ones he had of After effect and other small 90s bands. I need to give Elm another try. This fucking sucks. ---

What kind of illness? Any details? I don’t speak much Japanese so I can’t read anything about it. ---

It doesn’t say anything other than he died suddenly “due to illness.” Let’s not speculate and just be mournful and remember a man who’s had a long career in the industry. ---
