RIP Shifty Shellshock, leader of the band Crazy Town.

That joint was one catchy hit. Didn't hear anything about them after that. At 49, it's safe to assume Hollywood and substance abuse had a role in his demise. The perils of fame or lack of. R.I.P.
He had to go to rehab a couple of times, IIRC.
RIP.

There you go. Wash, rinse, repeat.
His fellow bandmate / alum from Crazy Town ... who survived the plane crash with Travis Barker (Blink 182) only to die via overdose less than a year later in 2009.

Goldstein was found dead in his New York City apartment on August 28, 2009.[46] Drug paraphernalia, including a crack pipe and a bag of crack, were found nearby.[1][47] The New York medical examiner subsequently determined that Goldstein's death was an accident caused by "acute intoxication" from a combination of cocaine, oxycodone, hydrocodone, lorazepam, clonazepam, alprazolam, diphenhydramine, and levamisole.[48] Goldstein's girlfriend, Hayley Wood, denied rumors that an alleged recent separation had contributed to his relapse, saying they had still been together at the time.[49]
After a memorial service, Goldstein was interred at Hillside Memorial Park Cemetery, a Jewish cemetery near Los Angeles, on September 2, 2009.[50] The following day, a memorial was held at the Hollywood Palladium. Among the hundreds of attendees were Nicole Richie, Travis Barker, Lindsay Lohan, Samantha Ronson, Eric Dane, Rebecca Gayheart, Scott Caan, and DJ Jazzy Jeff.[51][52] Wood made an emotional speech at the service, describing Goldstein as her soulmate.[53]
The scheduled debut air date for Gone Too Far had been October 5, 2009. After Goldstein's death, DiSanto acknowledged the possibility that placing Goldstein near other addicts helped contribute to his relapse.[40] After debating whether to air the show in the wake of his death, MTV decided to debut it on October 12.[54] His family stated: "It is our hope through airing this show that people will get to see the side of Adam that we knew and loved. The decision to air the show has been difficult, but we do this with the profound belief that it will inspire others to seek help".[55] Favreau also consulted people close to Goldstein about whether the footage of him in Iron Man 2 should still be used; they agreed unanimously it should remain. Favreau said that following his death, "there was never any doubt" the film would be dedicated to him.[37]
