     Drugs weren't found at the scene in Brockie's Richmond, VA home, but according to local news organization, CBS 6 WTVR, there's been evidence recently gathered that leads to suspicion of drug use. What the evidence exactly is hasn't been disclosed by any other news organizations at this point.

     Brockie's body was found sitting upright in a chair at his time of death by officers called to his home on Sunday evening, according to Reuters.

     An autopsy has yet to be conducted.

     Gwar is known for their brand of shock-rock metal, intense monster-esque stage costumes, and vulgar lyrics, especially in the 1980s.
