I'm not surprised. As many records as they sold, The Cramps were never mainstream and not even in the way that The Ramones eventually became (i.e. I don't think Lux and Ivy got their own Simpsons cameo). It's hard to believe – and a little depressing – that so many people will see the news and say "Lux who?" and then see some video footage and go, "Well, no wonder he's dead."
Screw 'em. Very few celebrity deaths bum me out, even when I like them. This seems to be one of them.
