My heart goes out to all the bad music fans mourning his loss.

Pretty sure he meant something to other people and not just music fans. I enjoyed some of their music in the early 2000s, but his death has more impact on me not because of who he was an an individual but because he was partially responsible for creating part of my life experiences.
Music/movies/art for me often coincides within my life experiences and often times musicians songs are etched within my memories of the past. This is why for me, when musicians pass or actors/actresses pass I always feel sad, it's almost as if a piece of my past has died.
As for calling Chester selfish for ending his life, this is simply not the case. It's clearly a mental health issue and being selfish has nothing to do with it.
To be considered selfish, one is doing something for ones own gain or pleasure, by definition. Obviously, when someone commits suicide, they are not doing it for any gain or personal pleasure.
