Avenged Sevenfold drummer found dead at age of 28

Quote:

Extremely sad news broke late yesterday about James "The Rev" Sullivan--better known as the drummer for hard rockers Avenged Sevenfold--who was found dead in his Orange County home on Monday. He was 28.

Details are sparse at this moment, but authorities are reporting that Sullivan died of natural causes. An autopsy is already underway. Sullivan was one of the founding members of the OC metal act, who broke into the mainstream with their 2005 album City Of Evil.

The band had surprise pop hit with the song "Bat Country" (remember how crazy it was to see them hanging out on TRL?) and they followed that smash with a self-titled fourth album in 2007, their highest charting record to date.

Sullivan's bandmates have made a statement on their official profile, and we urge you to go there and leave your thoughts in this very difficult time.

Bullshit. Drug OD. Everyone in town knows.

He probably died from cancer, AIDs and fail.

Seeing as how he only had one of those things, the more likely answer is something that kills quicker.

I think it was either an STD, a bad immune system, or OD.

I say epilepsy. Which sadly enough, is what i have. No jokes. If mistreated it can be serious.

Have them cut your ceribral cortex. Cures epilepsy, and gives you two brains for the price of one. And whatever the cost of sad surgery.

Even though the band he was in was rubbish, it is still sad.
