ABBA drummer Ola Brunkert died when he fell through a glass window separating his kitchen from his garden at his home in Mallorca, Spain. He was found late Sunday: Apparently, the glass shattered, slicing his throat. There’s no announcement at ABBA’s site, but you can read more at CNN. Our thoughts go out to his family and ABBA fans — which is basically everyone, right? — worldwide.

    Not a way I’d want to go out. I never even knew ABBA had a full-time drummer until now.
