Discovered recently that Electric Wizard were kinda dicks back in the day. “At the time, we were pretty bad people. I got arrested for arson of a car, outside a police station. Tim [Bagshaw] went to nick a crucifix off a church roof so we could use it onstage…”

R. L. Burnside killed a man “possibly at a craps game.”

Varg of Mayhem Burzum burned a couple churches and killed a bandmate.

I could list other examples, but would like to hear from other people and other music genres.

    You remember South Park’s Trapped in the Closet episode? I was shocked to discover that it’s a real thing. R Kelly made a musical drama about being trapped in the closet and it’s absolutely absurd.

      lol, watched that series of videos unfold in real time on The Soup, and am sheepishly realizing there’s probably a whole generation of people now that were too young/ not alive yet when that train wreck went down.
