Singer/guitarist Wayne Static of the industrial metal band STATIC-X has passed away at the age of 48. The news was confirmed by Wayne's publicists at FiXT Publicity.

No further details are currently available, but some of Wayne's associates have indicated that the death may have been the result of a drug overdose.

KORN frontman Jonathan Davis said: "Rest in peace, Wayne. I'm speechless right now. I'm losing to many of my friends. I'll see you on the other side, brother."

Micah Electric, drummer of Hollywood-based industrial rockers 9ELECTRIC, has posted the following message on Facebook:

"My friend Wayne Static has passed away.

"So glad to have known him, recorded with him, toured with him, partied with him and had MANY real conversations with him. He was a good soul who chose the wrong path.

"He will be missed."

STATIC-X released six studio albums between 1999 and 2009 before disbanding. Static then launched a solo career and released his debut solo album, "Pighammer", in 2011.

Wayne was scheduled to take his solo band back on the road for a co-headlining tour with POWERMAN 5000 starting on November 6 in Waterloo, Iowa.

Wayne married former porn star Tera Wray in January 2008.
