I don't think anyone listens to the Lost Prophets these days.

I had a copied cd that a friend gave me and I still whipped that shit out the window when I heard about that crazy fuck. But I did really like Rooftops...

Some things you just can't get away from. Ian Watkins is a waste of a human.

They were decent when they were making stuff like The Fake Sound of Progress, but then they switched to being an Emo band. Lol. Even without the allegations against Ian -- they were very mediocre and boring.

There's better bands out there.

Dredg, Minus the Bear, Fair To Midland.

So, first , I still listen to a couple of lostprophets songs. The memories I have associated with them have no connection to, don’t support or endorse and aren’t dictated by the evil that is their former singer. I don’t stream lostprophets or buy their music or anything that would generate revenue, so there isn’t that element either.

Second, if we start eliminating artists for crimes, you’ll have to stop listening to a lot of music . Aerosmith, Led Zeppelin, Bowie, R Kelly, Jerry Lee Lewis, Sex Pistols, chuck berry, Vince Neil, the list goes on and on. Yes, the singer from LP is likely worse than all these people but it creates a slippery slope when we can’t disconnect an artist from the music.
