    That is so messed up.

    As others have said, this really taints their music for me. I'm going to have a tough time every listening to their music again, if this is true.

    Nah, it was pretty vague as fuck. The "Why should I support such pieces of shit, in any way?" does not specify exactly who you're speaking of while the use of the pronoun "their" in the previous sentence does not explicitly confirm that you're JUST speaking about Chris Brown and Ian. Also you never really separate Ian and Lostprophets as a whole as two separate entities.

    Ah. Well, my mistake. I offer my sincere apologies for being too vague and causing much headaches. I guess I let my disgust get the best of me and that caused me to not exactly be as clear as I would have liked. I never meant to make it seems as though I thought that any other member of LP was in the wrong or anything like that.

    Wow this really makes me sad... have always been a pretty big fan of the band's music, not them as persons, but now that i know that their main writer and vocalist is a horrible person... this is not right, i can't associate him with their music at all!

    On the official Lostprophets website:

    Well I don't know if they're just being political about it, or they really had no idea of Ian's alledged "antics"

    Time will reveal the truth. I hope he's innocent and I really hope no kid was harmed.

    The message on the site makes me sad, I've always liked Lostprophets. Its such a shame if its true, and by the sound of that message it doesn't seem like the band are supporting him. Its probably true, they're many sick people in this world, just because he is the singer of a good band doesn't mean he isn't one of them. We don't know whats gone on in his private life.

    My point is, I hope it isn't true but it very easily could be.

    A lot of less than flattering shit has come to light with regards to ol Ian. In the incredible offchance he turns out to be innocent, a whooooooooooooooooooooooole lot of really demented shit has been dug up on the ol lad.

    Like holy jesus.

    The way you worded that makes it sound as though you're under the impression someone has wronged him...

    No I mean they're not supporting him because they think he done it, which there is a very high chance he has. He wronged them basically, and they're not like saying it didn't happen, they just don't know. Well thats what it came across as to me.

    No, there were posts there that he (or a mod) seemed to have deleted. Someone else more or else implied (and then sort of admitted he genuinely believed) Ian was the real victim.

    Oh, well thats messed up. If he did it I now hate him as a person and have no mercy on him, but it doesn't mean you should hate on the band as a whole and their music. I just probably wont listen to it that much.

    Think baseball bats. And buttcracks.

    Then think I'm not trying to make a joke and there a pictures of Ian with a ballbat up his crack.
    Know what's really lame? Ever since this all came out, I've found myself listening to 'Town Called Hypocrisy' a lot.

    You know, the song with the video where he's making sexual innuendo around dancing children and women dressed like animals....
