Estrangement is a far cry from death. Reconcilliation is always possible while life exists. Death removes that possibility. How can you compare the two? [/QUOTE]Yes, estrangement is different than death, but can be just as traumatic. Or take the case where death occurs natually or accidentally after estrangement. Just as with a suicide, there are unresolved issues.
Reconcilliation is still possible though. It is not the same as two people coming to peace with eachother, but inner peace with yourself. It is the same peace that everyone should strive for when a person is permanatly or semi-permanatly removed from our lives on bad terms. It is the same peace we must acheive in estrangement before true reconilliation.
PS: Let me add that I think this band's gimick was in very poor taste. Suicide is a very personal and traumatic thing, not a public show.
