This was posted on the band's official website:

"Dear fans and friends of Birth Control,

Unfortunately I have to post a very, very sad message. On Tuesday, 02.18.2014, our drummer and singer Bernd "Nossi" Noske passed away! The funeral took place in silence in the circle of family.

Who would like to support Nossi's widow with a donation can be sure that these will be thankfully accepted! Kornelia Sommerfeld-Noske, Zum Bäumchen 9, D-53809 Ruppichteroth, Germany

After the burial the band will decide how it goes - or whether it ends here and now. However - we will preserve Nossi's memory in honor - he lives on in our hearts.
[Eckhard Gallus - wallbreaker]

REST IN PEACE brother Nossi - we miss you and won't forget you, that's for sure !!!
[Haines, Sosho, Ludi, Hörmes, Moni & Wallbreaker]"

More awful news....

Bernd Noske, lead singer and drummer of German proggers Birth Control, died on February 18th 2014. I'll try and find out more details.

A terrific band who put out a range of albums that covered proper progressive rock, hard R&B and heavy Hammond-drenched scorchers. What a charismatic frontman, and just listen to that voice!

Here's one of my favourite songs from one of their earlier albums:
