They should find a new singer, clear their name and start touring again. Their music and their musical career deserves it.

[@astienv3824]

Unfortunately that won't be the case. These songs are forever tainted, specially, since Ian was the main lyricist. The brand can no longer exist because no record company will produce an album under the Lostprophets moniker. Also, the members did the right thing by distancing themselves from that awful thing. All we have left are these songs, but Lostprophets is done forever. That's why 3 out of five guys are no longer part of No Devotion. The impact of Ian's actions go beyond the music. Stu, Lee, Mike, Oliver and Luke will always be known as the Lostprophets guys...

miss this band so much. find listening difficult sometimes knowing that the frontman was capable of such unspeakable things- but the music holds lots of special memories for me

[@laurahaley2177]

I feel guilty for listening to them still to this day but I can’t just not ever listen to lostprophets again, they were and to be honest are still one of my favourite bands ever. Ian Watkins on the other hand is a twisted sick SOAB.

[@gerritjanvandersloot7793]

I feel you. LostProphets is one of the few bands of which I enjoy nearly every song they made. I never stopped listening to them. It reminds me of the beauty and simultaneously the ugliness of the world.

[@laurahaley2177]

@marius kristensen well that’s just odd in my opinion. I didn’t say I liked Ian Watkins I said he’s a sick sick person but I liked the music they produced at the time. Jimmy Saville on the other hand is a creep.

If you want a complete picture of the decline and eventual criminality of Ian Watkins, just read 'Bodies - Life and Death in music' by Ian Winwood. Winwood is a journalist and former friend of Watkins. It's a brutal story and much more detailed and revealing than the basic news coverage.

[@silverpro8356]

[@thedeadriver4815]

I was shocked by how he deteriorated in his skill. I suppose it's drugs' influence which had revealed by that time. He didn't catch any sharp note while was singing Bring Em Down. He simply stopped to make as significant efforts as earlier. Only in my opinion. By the way it's weird to realize that at the moment of this video shooting he already perpetrated everything he was indicted in.

If Watkins ends up dy1ng after the attack. I really hope Stu, Mike, Jamie, Lee and Luke can find some closure. That would close this chapter once for all. Not only them. The same goes to the rest of the victims, the people who suffered the consecuences of his actions: His Family, the people he abused, all of them deserve the chance to get the relief of knowing that the man who ruined their lives, is gone for good. Unfortunately that wasn't the case.

[@livefreeordie9519]

They didn't know about the sexual stuff or the severity of it, but Ian had been on a steady decline outside of the sick pedo shit for some time that all the other members had to deal with. In an interview I remember reading about shortly after the band broke up, one of them called him a "constant miserable challenge" or something similar.

[@PM-vv3uc]

@@livefreeordie9519 Yeah his drug abuse must have been very hard to deal with

[@mattjones1992]

Yeah. They knew ian was imploding. He was missing gigs, and they’re relationship outside the band was non existent due to his behaviour. But there’s no way they knew the extent. They’re pretty normal guys with families. Only Ian ever really lived up to the cliche “douchebag” style rock star.

​@@mattjones1992I'm sure they knew he was a pdf file atleast but I doubt they knew how big of one he was

[@ali_s93]

He can't sing a note in tune and was using drugs heavily around this time (it shows), no wonder they're angry. Towards the last few years when Ian's SA ramped up they were estranged anyway so I don't doubt that they didn't know about that
