just read this. love the Senseless Things, one of the better 90s indie bands IMHO. saw them a few times with Cater USM back in the day and the 'First of Too Many' is one of those albums that i never tire of listening to.

That is sad news. Saw them a few times back in my youth from small venues to Reading festival, actually remember being on stage with him for a few seconds before diving back into the crowd at the Old Trout in Windsor. As a Twickenham resident I’d hoped one day I’d get to see them play a small gig round here some time.  Will be listening to some Senseless Things today.

That's sad.
Saw them live and have a few records.
50 is no age.
Remember them and their contemporaries on the Word.

Also loved the senseless things. Saw them in loads of different places.

Gutted I missed the reunion in 2017.

Sad news.

Really sad, tbh I still most remember him as That Guy That Joined The Wildhearts Then Never Turned Up For The Tour but off the back of that I ended up getting into Senseless Things, and he kept turning up working with other bands and then the next time you heard the name it was rehab or similar... Very sad.
