Lux Interior died earlier today from a heart related condition. He was 60.


For the Philistines amongst you....he was the lead singer and along with his wife (Poison Ivy) one of the founders of The Cramps.

I wouldn't say I listened to them a lot, but I always really liked the Cramps, and they used to be one of my closest friends' favorite bands.

Oh my god, how horrible. One of my absolute favorite bands and one of my favorite rock vocalists.

RIP

I dig the Cramps from time to time, no more than I dig any other punk band, but they're fun to listen to.

Be well, Lux.

Thought that name sounded familiar. Sad to hear it.
