Mark Linkous, who recorded as Sparklehorse, committed suicide Saturday. His family confirmed the situation with a statement posted on the band's website. Sparklehorse was probably best known for the mid-1990s alt-rock fave "Someday I Will Treat You Good," produced by Cracker's David Lowery. Linkous' most recent work is a 2009 collaboration with Danger Mouse called "Dark Night of the Soul." The album, held up by Capitol (because of a Danger Mouse dispute over "The Grey Album") but expected this summer, also features filmmaker David Lynch on vocals, Iggy Pop, Frank Black, Vic Chesnutt, Suzanne Vega, the Strokes' Julian Casablancas, Neutral Milk Hotel's Scott Spillane and Granddaddy's Jason Lytle. Linkous also reportedly was working on a Sparklehorse album for the Anti- label. Linkous, 47, battled depression for years. In 1996, he nearly overdosed on Valium and anti-depressants, damaging his leg muscles. Known for its moody alt-blues/pop, Sparklehorse released four albums, the most recent being 2006's "Dreamt for Light Years in the Belly of a Mountain."
