Chuck Mosley has died aged 57.
His passing was confirmed by a statement from his family:
"After a long period of sobriety, Charles Henry Mosley III lost his life, on November 9th, 2017, due to the disease of addiction.We’re sharing the manner in which he passed, in the hopes that it might serve as a warning or wake up call or beacon to anyone else struggling to fight for sobriety. He is survived by long-term partner Pip Logan, two daughters, Erica and Sophie and his grandson Wolfgang Logan Mosley. The family will be accepting donations for funeral expenses."
Mosley was best known as the vocalist of Faith No More, having fronted the band from 1984 to 1988 and on their first two LPs, 'We Care a Lot' and 'Introduce Yourself'.
During the early nineties he also sang for hardcore punks Bad Brains and went on to form numerous other projects, including Cement and V.U.A. (Vanduls Ugainst Alliteracy). Last year he hit the road for the acoustic 'Reintroduce Yourself' tour, during which we spoke with him. Head here to read the interview.
