I didn't find them pretentious. Loud, yes (very).
Jaz Coleman became a bit odd but Walker seemed like a 'solid' sort of chap.
Later stuff got a bit 'meaningful' I suppose.
Funnily enough I worked with a bloke who was their manager in the early days (Tony Bidgood - I think he managed The Stray Cats too). He was one of our admin staff. He wasn't pretentious either.

'Cause of death has not been released'
I should imagine being a 100-year old man was cause enough....

Seen them several times and when they were good they were awesome but remember a couple of poor performances (Reading Festival was the worst) where SM couldn't stand up on his own due to drink, the boys dumped him in a corner and carried on.
Personal favourite of mine is Young Ned of the hill, one of many fantastic songs they did.

Just saw a pic of him in his hospital bed, trying to smile for the camera. Doesn't look like it ended well!

I am amazed that McGowan made it past 33 - let alone getting to 65.
Even more amazed his liver lasted with him
