The late W.V.O Quine's punk rocker nephew, Robert Quine, has died of an apparent suicide. He was 61.

NYT: "Besides his work with the Voidoids and Mr. Reed, Mr. Quine also played with Marianne Faithfull, Material, James Chance, Tom Waits, Brian Eno and John Zorn. In the 90's he played extensively with Matthew Sweet and Lloyd Cole. He also made duo recordings with the guitarist Jody Harris and the drummer Fred Maher.

The four original members of the Voidoids — Mr. Hell, Mr. Quine, Ivan Julian and Marc Bell — reunited to record a song, "Oh," which was released on the 2001 compilation album "Beyond Cyberpunk."

Born in Akron, Ohio, Mr. Quine graduated from Earlham College in Richmond, Ind., and the Washington University law school in St. Louis. Mr. Quine's wife, Alice, died last August. His uncle, the philosopher W. V. Quine, died in 2000. He is survived by a brother, William, of Visalia, Calif." more
