Chuck Biscuits DEAD..... This is really heavy shit

"Drummer Chuck Biscuits, who played with Danzig and Black Flag , has died of throat cancer at the age of 44.

Information is scarce, but an email from a family member confirmed to a music blog that Biscuits succumbed to the disease on October 24th.

“In response to the inquires, thank you for all the support,” an anonymous family member wrote in an e-mail sent this morning. “Chuck did not survive his battle with throat cancer. He passed surrounded by his family on 10/24/09.”

Biscuits also worked with the Circle Jerks and Run DMC during his career, and is rumored to have been a consideration as a drummer for Nirvana before Dave Grohl was selected."
