The reason for the demise of Crazy Town’s frontman Seth Binzer, popularly known as Shifty Shellshock, has been disclosed by authorities.
The 49-year-old succumbed to the simultaneous impact of fentanyl, cocaine, and methamphetamine, as reported by officials in California.
Binzer was discovered deceased in his residence on 24 June of this year.
The Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner has classified his passing as accidental.
Throughout his lifetime, Binzer battled with substance dependence and appeared on television programs addressing this struggle, including Celebrity Rehab and Sober House.
His manager, Howie Hubberman, remarked, “we all made efforts, but ultimately we could not save him,” in a statement provided to US media following his passing.
Binzer established Crazy Town in Los Angeles in 1995 together with Brett Mazur.
The band garnered fame for their third single, Butterfly, which achieved the top position on the US singles chart and reached number three in the UK singles chart, becoming a notable hit of the early 2000s.
In 2004, he launched a solo album titled Happy Love Sick and also led the band Shifty And The Big Shots.
