Saddened to read, only a week after the death of John Martyn, that Cramps’ frontman, Lux Interior has died at the age of 62.

This legendary band, with their unique blend of rockabilly and surf guitar, love of 50s b-movies and schlock-horror acts were a truly pioneering band. Original guitarist Bryan Gregory died nearly eight years ago, but Lux and his wife, Poison Ivy had led the band for over thirty years.
