Damo Suzuki, Pioneering Vocalist of Can, Dead at 74
Briefly

"It is with great sadness that we have to announce the passing of our wonderful friend Damo Suzuki, yesterday, Friday 9th February 2024," a statement posted by Can on Instagram read. "His boundless creative energy has touched so many over the whole world, not just with Can, but also with his all continent spanning Network Tour. Damo's kind soul and cheeky smile will be forever missed."
From there, Suzuki became a full-time member of Can and began recording with them, ultimately resulting in the 1970 album, Soundtracks, which featured his vocals on tracks like "Don't Turn the Light On, Leave Me Alone," "Mother Sky," and "Tango Whiskyman." After that, Suzuki fronted the band for their 1971 release, Tago Mago, which saw their embankment into more inventive, experimental territory, marked by his distinctive vocal delivery.
