Can't say I was a Fan, but I had a thing for the song Destroyer for awhile. Was just so different from my usual musical tastes and was manically fun.

RIP

He used to be into drugs from what I've read however, so the damage was probably already done.

Yep heard that this morning. No clue he was pushing 50. Saw them a couple times back around the time Wisconsin Death Trip came out. Great workout music.

You're right! Can't even remember the relationships mediocre bands of yesteryear have to Rob Zombie!

Damn.

Not overly fond of their more recent work, but I did really like some of their early stuff.
