The band announced his death on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DWoxNX_Aqtm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a>. The cause of death was not disclosed, but the band&#8217;s statement closed with the following message: &#8220;For those struggling with depression or urges to self-harm, help is always available. We\u2019re not in this alone. Suicide and Crisis Lifeline: 988.&#8221; Danhausen also tweeted about Lueders&#8217; death on his <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/DanhausenAD\/status\/2039761876553216367\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social media page<\/a>, and CM Punk also acknowledged the band&#8217;s announcement. A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gofundme.com\/f\/support-for-bos-memorial-service\">GoFundMe fundraiser<\/a> was launched to help Lueders&#8217; mother and girlfriend with funeral and other expenses.
