I thought that one might come up.
I'm out of the loop here but I'm not sure if I want to know what happened
Ian Watkins, the lead singer, is now in prison for sexual abuse of children. We're not talking the typical groomer here, he actually raped kids as young as toddlers. He's a monster. A lot of their songs are absolute bangers, but knowing about him makes it hard to listen to them.
The rest of the band (to my knowledge) are decent, though. They broke up the band upon learning the truth about Watkins, and has since formed a new band.
Oh yikes. That's just... Yikes. I'm glad the rest of the band got out of there, that's just absolutely appalling and horrible
Lead singer was a Cat 5 pedo. Was caught trying to organise baby rape.
One member was a pedo and went to prison. He is still there IIRC
Was going to comment this one.
Smh. So gross.
