UK Indie Band "Viola Beach" Die In Car Crash

Featured Replies

Sad story out of Stockholm, Sweden where all four members of the UK indie band Viola Beach and their manager were killed when their car fell more than 80 feet from a highway bridge into a canal.

 

Viola Beach die in car crash in Sweden - BBC News

 

Here is their most recognizable song

 

"Swings and Waterslides"

 

That's terrible. Any idea as to why the car went of the road?

Did they go over a bridge that was up for something. That was weird.

I'm guessing that they were terribly unfamiliar with the area, and as the driver was approaching the bridge didn't realize that it was the type that raised to let boat traffic through below, and made the unfortunate uninformed decision to continue to keep moving forward.

Yea that's what I took from it as well. Just can't understand how that could happen really. Just seems strange.

So far nothing is definite but here's an interesting article discussing that investigators have taken blood samples to check for drugs or alcohol in their system.

 

Were drink or drugs behind 50mph canal death plunge that killed Viola Beach?

I would buy that. But I thought I read somewhere that they had a driver? Maybe I supplemented the manager as such I dunno.

They're not certain but of the 5 guys in the car they think that the manager was the driver.

 

It is freaky though why in the world he would've been speeding under the circumstances.

On top of the world life is good and then it's over.
