The Golden Rule: Music taste is subjective so don't be a gatekeeping asshole. There's no "bad music", only music you like or don't like.

We Are A Community: So no racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or spam.

Such a shame the lead guy sounds like a problematic guy - man they made some good music.

was out of the loop on this one... I was devastated when I heard about the Daughters frontman, I loved their last album so much, but haven't listened to it since... but, in this case, we at least got the wonderful Lingua Ignota.

oh shit, I'M out of the loop on the Daughters story!

Ugh.

Basically the front man of Daughters (not to be confused with Daughter. They're cool) was in an abusive relationship with Lingua Ignota. There's a first hand account from her on the internet somewhere. The details are quite devastating. Trigger warning to anyone who decides to search for it.
