Pues sí, me enteré al mediodía 


En la web oficial de la banda aún no pone nada, pero os dejo un par de enlaces con la noticia:

DEP 

[AnthonyGil]

Una pena, tan joven...  De momento Riverside quiere guardar respeto hacia la familia. Era pieza importante del grupo, parte del último disco fue compuesto por Mariusz Duda y él, se nota que su trabajo de guitarra era más notable esta vez.

Descanse en Paz Piotr.

[icrp1961]

Hombre, yo lamento la pérdida de cualquier artista y no dejo de hacerlo ahora. Ademas, tenía cuarenta años...
Por lo demás, no tengo discos de Riverside ni los he escuchado, salvo una canción en la primera versión de este foro.

[Boquerón]

Apenas he escuchado a Riverside (temas sueltos) pero es triste que alguien tan joven se vaya.

DEP.

[MrBrain]

Yo tampoco conozco nada de Riverside, pero una autentica pena la muerte tan prematura de alquien con tan sólo 40 años. Descanse en paz.

[Enrique]

Una pena, la verdad.
A mi si me gusta Riverside. Les he visto tres veces, una en Peralta y dos en Madrid. En el último concierto del pasado noviembre en la Joy Eslava le comentamos lo bien que estuvo el concierto y se hizo fotos con la gente. Parecía un tio cercano   

[Mountain]

Joder que palo, no tenía ni idea. A mi me gustan mucho Riverside y precisamente la guitarra de la banda es lo que mas me gusta. Se ha ido un gran músico y con solo 40 años!

Joder que putada!

DEP

DEP 

yo soy fan de la banda que nos regalo el año pasado uno de  los mejores discos del progresivo y es muy triste noticia, además de por la edad, el sonido de su guitarra es muy característico, una marca de la casa. DEP. 

[edumalavida]

Una lástima, lo siento. D.E.P.

[Boquerón]

¿Se sabe la causa del fallecimiento?

[icrp1961]

Lo cierto es que parece un secreto bien guardado.

[Boquerón]

Aparentemente en fotos recientes no se aprecia deterioro físico, no parece que estuviese enfermo de alguna enfermedad terminal.

[Mountain]

La hijaputa de la güadaña aparece cuando quiere y porque quiere, da igual que estés chungo o no, no tiene piedad!

Ayer Mariusz Duda publicó este panegírico de su amigo en la página del grupo en Caralibro, en inglés y polaco:

"One of my favourite mischievous remarks I liked to tease Grudzien with was reminding him the day before his birthday that he's half a year older than me. Just before he turned 40 I said, "Do you know how old I will be on March 15th? Still 39, and you?"

We listened to the same music. We would play Solar Fields or Hedningarna at parties and dance with our eyes closed around an invisible bonfire. In the old Progresja club we would lie on our backs on the small stage in the corner and listen to Archive from the speakers. And to the cool solutions we came up with in "In Two Minds". We would compete with each other as to who was the more loyal Dead Can Dance fan, who loved the band more. I lost ignominiously when I realised that all of his tattoos were connected with Dead Can Dance graphic designs. And that he paid over PLN 500 at an auction for "Into The Labyrinth" vinyl.

We subscribed to the idea that three perfect sounds are more meaningful than twelve played around the guitar neck. We were excited by this emotional approach. I composed songs in such way that he could fill them with those perfect few notes. We completed each other. Right from the beginning of Riverside I knew he was a special guitarist whose playing was made for painting musical landscapes. He had his own original style, and that has always been more important for me than technical contortions and circus tricks. Most of all, he was modest, humble and he knew exactly what he was capable of. And you could hear all that in the way he played. It was incredible and fascinating.

He couldn't disguise emotions. When he was happy, he showed that, jumped for joy, goofed around, and when he was in a bad mood, he couldn't pretend even when he was on stage. He was peeved and everyone could see that. We would then go backstage after a gig and tell him, "f**k, Piotr, people can see that you're pissed off, when will you finally learn to play a bit for them?" And he would shout back, "But that's the way I am and I can't help it!" And indeed that's the way he was. Painfully honest. He played what he could the way he could, he never faked anything. That's the kind of man he was. But we were growing up together. And during our last tour, we were surprised at how many positive emotions we were able to inspire in each other. Especially when we looked and smiled at each other. And that idea to lean back to back while playing "Feel Like Falling" charged our batteries for the entire gig. We were becoming as one on stage, a true band. And it was thanks to him that I wanted us to continue as a band in spite of my solo aspirations.

We learned from each other the most important things. To always remember that, first and foremost, you have to be a good person. To cherish the most valuable characteristics in us. To live a full life and never put it off for later. Whenever I was lost, he was the reason I was able to find myself again. That's the way we influenced, inspired and helped each other. We were like brothers. Sometimes closer, sometimes further apart, but we could always count on each other. We were connected by so much more than music. We were connected by the ability to talk about what most people don't want to talk about, emotions and how we felt, and why we reacted the way we did, and why we were the way we were.

It must be a joke, a grim twist from the damned "Game of Thrones", which we were reading avidly at the same time, checking furtively how many pages the other one had got left to read. A terrible blow as if a baby learning to make its first steps was swept away by that big wrecking ball. And all that's left is a huge black empty hole with remnants of dead flesh around. I feel as if half of my heart was ripped out of my chest, as if half of my soul was taken away from me. I keep crying and I can't get a grip. I feel an immense sea of sadness and pain inside me. Yes, sometimes, to balance things out, I get a glimpse of black humour. Sometimes, I'm simply pissed off. But the truth is, I miss you, Piotr, and I don't know how to cope with it. A lot has ended when you died, a lot has faded, vanished, fallen to pieces. I am simply devastated. I feel as if tides were crashing me against rocks and with every wave it's getting worse. I don't know when the pain will pass but it looks like for now it has to be a part of me. Just like you have been a part of my life.

Farewell my beloved Friend. See you somewhere on the other side"

[AnthonyGil]

Hace nada se anunció los motivos de su fallecimiento: repentino paro cardíaco. 

http://metalsound.es/causa-muerte-riverside-piotr-grudzinski/

Riverside cancela la gira de primavera y planea continuar, aunque parece que se darán un descanso ante tal "duelo". Sí editaran el EP tal y como tenían previsto antes del fallecimiento de Piotr.

Joder! que bonito!

Hasta un tercio de los infartos agudos de miocardio debutan con muerte súbita.
Si pudiera elegir esto es lo que querría para mí.
Obviamente, para sus familiares, amigos, compañeros y allegados ha sido una desgracia mayúscula, pero es que lamuerte es así, siempre injusta. Para los seguidores de Riverside también lo será.

[Pantagruel]

En realidad la fuente más fiable que he leído decía que fue una embolia pulmonar, que tiene síntomas parecidos.

En realidad la fuente más fiable que he leído decía que fue una embolia pulmonar, que tiene síntomas parecidos.

Lo cierto es que una embolia pulmonar masiva tambien te mata. Proviene de una trombosis venosa de la cual el trombo se ha soltado, atraviesa el corazón derecho y se impacta en las arterias pulmonares.
Repito, si es masiva, te puede matar.

[Boquerón]

Mi vecino de 51 años sufrió una embolia pulmonar el verano pasado y no le dio tiempo ni ha decir ayyy. Lo dejó seco. Fulminante.

[zappamacias]

Precioso este hilo 

[icrp1961]

Yo tengo 54, imagínate.
