R.I.P. Jakke Hallikainen & Pete "Räkä" Malmi

It's been a sad week. The founder and vocalist of Briard (the first punk band in Finland to release a record), Pete "Räkä" Malmi died on Sunday and the founder, guitarist and (post-split w/Cadgers) vocalist of Kaaos, Jakke Hallikainen, died on Wednesday. Two absolute legends of finnish punk and hardcore lost in a couple of days. Sad, but true.

Did Jakke drink himself to death or what? Last I saw him in Sauna Open Air Festival with Henkka, but didn't speak with him. Damn.
