Obituary (band) Albums
An obituary ( obit for short) is an article about a recently deceased person. Newspapers often publish obituaries as news articles. Although obituaries tend to focus on positive aspects of the subject's life, this is not always the case. According to Nigel Farndale, the Obituaries Editor of ''The Times'', obituaries ought to be "balanced accounts" written in a "deadpan" style, and should not read like a hagiography.
