Usually I agree, my one exception is Lost Prophets. Ian Watkins crimes were so awful that now when I've tried to listen to their first album (which I loved at release) I just feel sick.

    From what I’ve read it didn’t begin until, like, after their third album. So that’s how I rationalize it, and I hate saying that. But Fake Sound of Progress and Start Something were utterly formative for me, so I’ve gotta cope.

    Noone goes from being a normal, functioning, non-paedophile adult to raping babies in a couple of years. That shit escalates over a long time so I don't buy that there weren't signs before then.

    The band mates and label etc may have not realised how depraved he would go on to become but there were 100% signs he had an unnatural interest in children.
