Wayne Static, former frontman of metal band Static-X, has died at age 48, his publicist confirmed to Billboard late Saturday (Nov. 1).

No information was provided other than that Static was was due to set out on a co-headlining tour with Powerman 5000 and Drowning Pool over the next several months. A tweet from Static's official Twitter handle was posted some six hours before the news was announced.

Static formed his namesake band in 1994, releasing debut album Wisconsin Death Trip in 1999; the album went platinum. They would go on to release five more albums, ending with 2009's Cult of Static, before Static began a solo career.

The singer/guitarist/keyboardist was known for his signature hairstyle, which was spiked up to stand on end.

Damn, I was really surprised by this. Dio's death back a few years ago wasn't too shocking seeing his age; then Jeff Haneman died out of nowhere, and now we got Static dead.

He was only 48 :P

GOH

Despite what that fucking asshole Jacoby Shaddox said he didn't die of a drug overdose, apparently it was of natural causes in his sleep.
