Hey there, rock fans! Let’s chat about Evan Seinfeld, the powerhouse frontman and bassist of Biohazard, who recently got real on Dean Delray’s 'Let There Be Talk' podcast. Evan spilled all the tea on why he ditched the glitz and grit of Los Angeles for the serene vibes of Tulum, Mexico, four years ago - and trust me, it’s a story worth hearing.
Back in 2021, Evan was riding a rollercoaster of personal and professional lows. After building a premium social network that rivaled OnlyFans - processing millions in transactions - his business took a hit when the competition surged. Add to that a third divorce, crippling anxiety, and sleepless nights, and you’ve got a recipe for a serious life crisis. It was a dark time for the hardcore legend, but a pivotal conversation with his son turned everything around.
“Dad, you’re always so happy in Tulum, but back in L.A., you’re just angry and combative. Maybe it’s time to get out of there and start fresh,”
his son told him, as Evan recalled on the podcast. That blunt honesty hit hard, and within moments, Evan knew it was time to pack up and head south.
With just a laptop, a bass guitar, and a small bag of clothes, Evan made the leap to Tulum, ready to reinvent himself. This wasn’t just a change of scenery - it was a full-on soul reset. After losing his best friend, actor Granville Adams (known for 'Oz'), to cancer and sitting by his side during his final days, Evan took a long, hard look at what truly mattered in life.
Inspired by lessons from AA about raw, honest connections, he founded Mantorship, a men’s circle in Tulum aimed at helping guys tap into their truth and purpose. He’s also just wrapped up a book - a guide for men to build confidence and chase the life they crave. Talk about a glow-up! Evan’s gone from living in his ego to embracing spirituality, with yoga, meditation, and journaling now part of his daily grind.
“I was completely wrapped up in my ego in L.A., and I had to shed that skin,” Evan admitted. He’s candid about being an imperfect human, but his journey to mindfulness and helping others is nothing short of inspiring. Plus, he’s noticed how stepping away from the U.S. has shifted his perspective on toxic debates and division - a theme that’s front and center in Biohazard’s latest work.
Speaking of music, Biohazard is back with a bang! Their first studio album in over a decade, Divided We Fall, dropped on October 17 via BLKIIBLK, and it’s a raw reflection of today’s fractured world. Recorded at Shorefire Recording Studios in New Jersey and The Hydeaway in California, with engineering by Joseph DeMaio and additional work by Matt Hyde, this album - with guitar and production tech by Phil Caivano - is a must-listen for fans.
The title itself flips the classic ‘United We Stand’ on its head, focusing on how humanity obsesses over differences instead of similarities. It’s a powerful message, straight from Evan’s evolving worldview, shaped by his time in Tulum. And if that’s not enough to get you hyped, Biohazard has teamed up with hip-hop legends ONYX for a North American tour this fall - talk about a killer combo!
So, what’s next for Evan? Whether he’s strumming his bass, guiding men through Mantorship, or soaking up the Tulum sun, one thing’s clear: this rockstar has found his peace - and he’s not looking back. Keep rocking, Evan, we’re rooting for you!
