He was found in his Berlin apartment on September 6.
Little is known about the exact details of his death, but it is believed to
there was a huge deterioration in his health tied to years of over abuse of
alcohol and pills.
Crack, who had just turned 30 in May, had a history of mental illness. The
band had taken a one year break to allow him time to seek psychiatric help.
