More on the Kevin Dubrow Death

The mystery surrounding the death of Quiet Riot singer Kevin Dubrow has intensified. According to Las Vegas Police, Dubrow had been dead for approximately six days before his body was discovered last Sunday. There is still no official cause of death.

Dubrow's
fiancee was the last person to see him alive. She says the last she heard from him was a text message the Monday before he was discovered (i.e. the day he died). I don't want to get too into speculation, but if foul play was not involved, this may have been a suicide. It certainly appears that way, as Dubrow did not have a known drug problem.

R.I.P. Kevin DuBrow (1955-2007)

Kevin Dubrow, lead singer of 80's hair metal band Quiet Riot, died yesterday. His body was found by friends in his Las Vegas home. Quiet Riot's 1983 CD, Metal Health, was the first heavy metal album to reach #1 on the Billboard charts. Subsequent Quiet Riot albums failed to sell as many copies or have as much of an impact.

Though this is a sad moment for Dubrow's family and friends, it is not a huge loss for music. But since it is not nice to speak ill of the dead, I'll leave it at that. Maybe, if you have a few minutes, open up a beer and throw on "Cum On Feel The Noize."
