    News that the frontman – known by his alter ego as Oderus Urungus - had been found dead by room mates last night were followed by a statement from Lamb Of God frontman and fellow Richmond, Virginia native, Randy Blythe, who comments: ”Got a very sad call tonight from my buddy Chris Bopst, who was one of the original members of GWAR- my friend Dave Brockie, AKA Oderus Urungus, the singer of GWAR, has left the building & taken off back to his home planet. He was 50 years old. I do not know details of why he died yet, just that he passed away at home & his roommates found him.”

    This is really sad news :(
