I love band drama because most of the time the answer to “what happened to group X and why do they sound so bland now?” is “they had one good idea, used it on their first album, and it’s all been downhill from there”, but every so often you’ll run into one where it’s like “they had an acrimonious falling-out when it was revealed that the bassist was embezzling money from the touring budget to feed his thousand-dollar-a-day Funko Pop habit, and the drummer knew about it but didn’t say anything out of misplaced loyalty to a version of their friendship that no longer existed, ultimately leading to the guitarist quitting the music industry in disgust and moving to Canada to become a lumberjack, so now the lead vocalist – having obtained the exclusive rights to the name and discography of the now-defunct group in a piece of legal chicanery that may have involved Russian mob connections – is the only remaining member of the original lineup, and it turns out that he’s an idiot”.
