Crazy Town vocalist Shellshock Rogue died of an accidental drug overdose after mixing prescription medication with street-bought medication…his manager confirmed it.
Howie Hubberman explained the singer – real name was Seth Binzer – really wanted to change things… but unfortunately, no one had the tools to help him in his battle with addiction – including himself.
Howie added the PEOPLE“Seth Binzer, after struggling with addiction and the rapid success of Crazy Town with ‘Butterfly,’ has never been able to reach a more successful level of dealing with his addictions. We all try, but in the end we all fail, or Shifty would still be here.”
The autopsy has been completed, but the cause of death is still “postponed” until the official toxicology report arrives.
As we reported… police sources immediately suspected a possible overdose after they found drug paraphernalia and a lighter near the body on the floor when they responded to his home on Monday.
Throughout his life, Binzer has had a few run-ins with the law. In 2011, he was arrested on outstanding warrants after police were called to a domestic dispute with his girlfriend in Los Angeles. In 2023, he was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol in South Carolina.
FWIW, Seth recently announced he was sober and committed to getting better. He was only 49 years old.
