Mars Volta's Jeremy Ward has been found dead, apparently from a drugs overdose. The band, featuring former members of At The Drive-In, are due to release their debut album ('De-Loused In The Comatorium') at the end of June. They were also expected to play the Carling Weekend Festival. TotalRock send condolences to all connected with Ward.

I was really loking forward to seeing them at Reading, Anthony Keidis was full of praise for them when he was interviewed on the Radio 1 rock show.

He was an off-stage guy, they are continuing without him, but for now they've pulled out of their tour with the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, but I think after that they're doing all their dates.
