Lux Interior has died
Lux Interior, the founding member of garage horror punk band the Cramps, has died aged 62. Interior, whose real name was Erick Lee Purkhiser, passed away on 4 February at Glendale Memorial Hospital in California. He had suffered from a previously existing heart condition.
Interior was the theatrical, macabre frontman of cult goth punk group the Cramps. He founded the band in 1973 with his wife, Poison Ivy, whose real name is Kristy Wallace, and quickly became a staple of the New York punk scene. The band's music fused their love of horror B-movies with rockabilly and surf rock, darkt side of erotica. Their influence can be heard in bands such as the White Stripes, My Bloody Valentine, The Raveonettes and the Horrors.
