Really really pissed off, listening to Jet Generation and imagining him fighting robots with lasers

When? Of what? Google's showing me nothing...
No way!
Please?

Looking myself. Guitar Wolf's english news page is down...

Confimed. Fuck.

I'd just gotten into GW over the last half year or so. Fuck.

Dammit.
I've been pushing Guitar Wolf onto the unwary and the jaded for a couple years now and there's just such vitality there you can't think of sudden death... burning out after decades of hard psychotic hardness, sure, but heart attack at thirty-eight just isn't settling with me.
Dammit.

Oh SHIT. That's... well terrible, obviously.

What a downer... I mean, in the stakes of "bands whose members are least likely to die and most likely to become immortal rock n' roll superheroes", Guitar Wolf must be near the top.

How did he die, at the risk of asking a stupid question? I'm guessing a shoot out or motorbike accident would be too much to hope for..

Bass Wolf and Drum Wolf are absolute dudes in 'Wild Zero'. Well, I mean, everybody in Wild Zero is an absolute dude, but y'know what I mean - they're a hilarious double-act.

Who will save us from the zombie onslaught now?

Only ever saw GW once, but it was one of the most amazingly ROCKing gigs I've ever been to.

I'm going to spend the day listening to UFO Romantics REALLY fucking loud.

Bass Wolf can't die...

This is just WRONG. Heart attack? I didn't think Bass Wolf had a heart - just a piston of pure ROCK. ROCK isn't supposed to die like this. And if I have anything to do with it, it won't.

ROARING BLOOD, my friends. Only raise a glass if it's full of rocket fuel...

Motherfuckery. As soon as I heard this I put their new one, "Loverock," in my bag to be blasted at work. I wonder whether the band will continue without him. That was a whole fuckload of bass that won't be easily replaced, if at all.

Wow, and they were here in Atlanta not too long ago.

One of the best shows I ever saw in my life was Guitar Wolf and Jon Spencer Blues Explosion some years ago...

Damn.
