Dream Theater Forums member CharlesPL, who claims to be from Poland and that his sister knows the band personally, had this to say:

"Quick short update :

About 2 am came out of Club (after TWD show) got into a cab went home, and before 4 in the morning ,he was dead. He died at home (not confirmed)"

Rest in peace. Really great guitarist. Cry

I spun all my Riverside records yesterday in order, the magic is so apparent. Still cannot believe he is gone, whatever the reason is the end result is very sad for music.

The world has become a much, much poorer place with his passing. His guitar playing has been one of the highlights in music over the last 10 years. The last section of Reality Dream off Out of Myself is just stunning, and there are many more examples of why he was so special.

RIP.

Cry oh my god I feel like a heavy punch in my stomach right now... 

RIP
I look up, I'm almost blinded

by the warmth of what's inside me

and the taste that's in my soul,

but I'm dead inside as I stand alone...

I've been a fan of progressive rock for 45 years now, and Riverside were the band of the present century for me. Such exciting, powerful and intelligent albums. This is devastating for us all. RIP Piotr

Can anybody explain to me the lyrics of "Towards the Blue Horizon"?

In particular the last two stanzas:

Where are you now my friend?
I miss those days
I hope they take good care
Of you there
And you can still play the guitar
And sing your songs

I just miss those days
And miss you so
Wish I could be strong
When darkness comes
Curiosity killed a cat, Schroedinger only half.

O, sh**. I can't believe 
I'm big fan of Riverside. Their music touched some strings in my soul. 
I never was so sad about musician death, since Chris Squire(Yes) passed away. 
This is a huge loss for the band and their fans

RIP
