I could never get into The Growlers. A lot of my friends were into them and I got dragged to a show once and I don't remember anything about it. Most my friends stopped listening to them though.

More than just a specific member, it was a whole culture of sexual misconduct involving multiple bands on the label. The Growlers were just one of the most notable. It was a huge scandal in the DIY music scene last year, at least in the Bay Area.

Black Lips have ways more problems than just sexual misconduct. They've got connections to the alt-right and Proud Boys. Also, think about their name for a second. Where does it come from?

Sorry, not trying to ruin things you enjoy lol. For what it's worth, I listen to a lot of artists that would be considered problematic (up to and including murderers). My personal rule is I don't let their actions dictate my enjoyment as long as I'm not contributing to them monetarily.

Considering I heard the same thing about Michel Graves, I really need to reevaluate the music I listen to.

It's fine, I would rather be informed and make that decision myself. It's really hard to find artists throughout time without some sort of problematic behavior, especially in the genre.

These are the guys who make me suspicious when they say their feminists.

Lets face it musicians are not paragons of ethics and morals. Its usually the opposite given their lifestyles. And when one looks squeaky clean I'm suspicious especially in this day and age. You still have the blatant shitbags like the old days but many now go to great lengths to curate a false persona on social media etc.

I don't feel super blindsided by this, I'm all about changing your opinion when presented with new information. Believe me when I say I understand separating the art from the artist (I'm a trans person who named herself after a HP character).

I'll probably hear their music again, but it will have a different aura to it. Kind of how when you listen to Linkin Park after Chester killed himself, it just hits different knowing he never really got passed those issues.

No one ruined these artists for me, these artist did this to themselves.

They seemed very hit and miss live from someone who never saw them. The whole appeal to me was Beach Goth (which I imagine is also no longer a thing) seemed like a chill time.

Lol. That was terrible anyway. Sounds like a bad version of the Beatles.

That being said, good luck finding a musician who isn't 'problematic' in today's society.
