Green Day / Blink 182 / AFI producer taken off life support

Acclaimed record producer Jerry Finn passed away yesterday. He was 38 years old.

The man responsible for Green Day's Dookie, Rancid's ...And Out Come The Wolves, Sum 41's All Killer No Filler, Blink 182's Take Off Your Pants And Jacket's, Alkaline Trio's Crimson, AFI's Decemberunderground and +44's When Your Heart Stops Beating albums among others, was taken off life support on August 12.

Finn suffered a severe brain haemorrhage in July and never regained consciousness.

A close friend of Finn said:

"The haemorrhage [did] massive damage to his body which [would have left] him severely disabled and in need of acute care for the rest of his life. We know Jerry wouldn't want to live like this in a vegetative state."

Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this sad time.

Sad news. I own a acouple of albums by him, and Green Day, Blink and AFI is quite a nice list of bands to have worked with.

PS: Mods, can you take some action against the retard again.

rest in peace, jerry. you were held in high esteem for all the hard work you done for so many bands. no doubt their albums wouldn't have broken them into the mainstream without the input you had in them. another true talent in the world of music has gone. you'll be missed, rest in peace jerry!

EVERYONE!

Apparently Jerry Finn never died!
Yes he was taken off life support but people had assumed he died and it was spread around the internet.

Thankfully he is still with us, and is gradually improving!
