Williams Was The Lead Singer For The Punk Band The Plasmatics Whose Stage Theatrics Included Blowing Up Equipment Near Nudity And Chain-Sawing Guitars. Dubbed "The Queen Of Shock Rock " Williams Was Widely Considered The Most Controversial And Radical Female Singer Of Her Day. 1 She Often Sported A Mohawk Haircut. Williams Was Nominated In 1985 For A Grammy In The Best Female Rock Vocal Category During The Height Of Her Popularity As A Solo Artist. Suicide Williams Died At Age 48 In 1998 Of A Self-Inflicted Gunshot Wound In A Wooded Area Near Her Home. While Some Argued She Committed Suicide Rather Than Compromise Her Art Swenson Reportedly Described Her As "despondent" At The Time Of Her Death. 7 This Is What She Is Said To Have Written 8 In A Suicide Note Regarding Her Decision I Don't Believe That People Should Take Their Own Lives Without Deep And Thoughtful Reflection Over A Considerable Period Of Time. I Do Believe Strongly However That The Right To Do So Is One Of The Most Fundamental Rights That Anyone In A Free Society Should Have. For Me Much Of The World Makes No Sense But My Feelings About What I Am Doing Ring Loud And Clear To An Inner Ear And A Place Where There Is No Self Only Calm. On Motörhead's 1999 Live Album Everything Louder Than Everyone Else Before The Song "No Class" Motörhead Vocalist And Williams' Longtime Friend Lemmy Said That He Wanted To Dedicate This Song Officially To Wendy. 9 Discography With The Plasmatics * Butcher Baby/Fast Food Service Live /Concrete Shoes Live 7" Single 1978 * Meet The Plasmatics 12" EP 1979 * Dream Lover/Corruption/Want You Baby 7" Single 1979 * Butcher Baby/Tight Black Pants Live 7" Single 1980 * Butcher Baby EP 12" EP 1980 * Monkey Suit/Squirm Live 7" Single 1980 * New Hope For The Wretched LP 1980 * Beyond The Valley Of 1984 LP 1981 * Metal Priestess 12" EP 1981 * Coup D'Etat LP 1982 * Maggots The Record LP 1987 * Coup De Grace LP 2000 * Put Your Love In Me Love Songs For The Apocalypse LP 2002 * Final Days Anthems For The Apocalypse LP 2002 Solo * Stand By Your Man" W/ Lemmy From Motörhead 7" Single 1982 * W.O.W.
