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.

    I agree, really turned me off to the band, although I will throw on Demons and Wizards from time to time.

      Hansi seems nice enough at least.

      (please don’t turn out to be a dick)

        I don’t think I would handle that well, if Hansi turned out to be a garbage person.
