Blabbermouth is reporting that Kevin Dubrow, frontman for the legendary Quiet Riot has been found dead in his Las Vegas Home. The news was broken by longtime friend Michael Politz of The Vegas Eye

I am sad to have to report the passing of one of my closests friends, Kevin DuBrow. DuBrows body was found by friends, on Sunday in his Las Vegas home.


Club kingsnake recently covered Quiet Riot's show at Austin's Antone's niteclub back in July. Kevin and Quiet Riot were instrumental in helping metal break into the mainstream in the 80's. He will be missed by metal fans world wide.

Jason McMaster former frontman for Austin's Dangerous Toys and whose band Broken Teeth opened for Quiet Riot's Antone's gig had this to say...

I heard he had a crazy set at the Rocklahoma metal festival this year. He was really in his element. He is going to be missed. A lot of people loved that guy.


We will post more information here as it becomes available.

News: club kingsnake welcomes a new staff photographer

Austin is just too big for me to handle by my lonesome. Clint has been getting help up in Toronto from contributors Stewart Stick and James "Trash" Sampson, and now I have someone to help me pick up the slack here in Austin. Jaime Butler, a budding new music photographer, has shot a couple shows for us now and we are glad to have her on board as a full staff member. I first met Jaimie at the Army of Anyone show at La Zona Rosa earlier this year and then ran into her again at the Meat Puppets.
