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.
Metallica set back online music downloads and piracy by a decade
It’s been hard for me to enjoy or appreciate them since them, even though I do like them as people and their music. It was just so stupid and tone deaf. Anti rock and roll. It would be kind of like if people now figured out a way to get around Ticketmaster and get into concerts for free and you go out and say knock it off, give your money to Ticketmaster, stop stealing from artists.
