As previously reported, Crazy Town’s Seth Binzer (aka Shifty Shellshock) recently passed away at the age of 49 following an accidental overdose. Now, it has been revealed that the frontman had prescription and street drugs in his system.
Shellshock’s manager Howie Hubberman told People the following about the singer’s struggles with addiction:
“Seth Binzer, after struggling with addiction and Crazy Town‘s rapid success with ‘Butterfly,’ never was able to reach out on a more successful level to deal with his addictions. We all tried, but ultimately we all failed, or Shifty would still be here.”
He also added:
“The cause of death was a combination of prescription drugs and street purchased drugs. Shifty was a friend and really wanted to get himself fixed — unfortunately no one had the exact tools to do this, myself included.”
An official toxicology report has yet to be released.
