Publicist Brian Bumbery released a statement confirming the worst to the Associated Press on Wednesday night. Cornell was on tour in Detroit at the time of his passing, and it has come as a complete shock to his fans, friends, and family.

The cause of death had yet to be revealed as of the time of this writing. He was 52.
