GWAR's Dave Brockie will not be down for breakfast.

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Dave Brockie, who as "Oderus Urungus" fronted the alien-costumed heavy metal band GWAR during graphic and fake-blood-soaked stage shows for more than three decades, has died. He was 50.

Officers were called to Brockie's home Sunday evening and found the singer dead inside the home, Richmond police spokeswoman Dionne Waugh said Monday. Detectives don't suspect foul play at this time and the medical examiner's office will determine cause of death, Waugh said.

Remember it was about the show...IF you'd ever seen them you'd know what I was talking about...you either hated the show or loved...it was a 5 ring circus for sure !!!!!!!!!!!

RIP Oderus Urungus, "Queen of the sick". If you never got to see them then you missed out on some crazy ****. Mind you, I don't think there are too many 90's post punks on this forum so I see why you wouldn't get it.

Probably drug related. 50yrs old! I like me some GWAR. Some of it sucked, but that's one of those love it or hate it kinda bands. DEFINITELY had their own style and theatrics. R.I.P. Oderus
