I've said it before, but it's basically my policy to try and have no opinion on stuff like this, until something is proven one way or another, which it rarely is.
It could be either thing but only a few people know for sure.

I think, in the grand scheme of things, youre allowed to think something is gross even if the person doesnt go to prison for it. Take the entire cocaine fuelled rock scene, for example.

Also, just because a case has been dropped, it doesn't something untoward didn't happen. Just there's not enough evidence to pursue it further. /Captain Obvious Yeah, this. I mean have we already forgotten about Mason Greenwood, charges being dropped is not an admission of audience especially against a person in a position of power.

I dunno. Wasnt the point 'so nobody gives a shit now the case has been dropped?'. No, not really.

In the case of Rammstein, didn't they pretty much admit to it? With the argument being it's not "technically illegal" before offering to stop doing it and sacking the staff who'd arrange the whole thing.
Picking out the young attractive girls in the crowd, moving them to the front row, then back to a private room to be given alcohol before putting one or more of them in a tiny room with the lead singer.. With no demands they have to have sex, he simply storms off if they don't.. isn't technically illegal sure.
Total abuse of power and then some though.

You took that echo chamber comment to heart, didn't you Jambo?

It definitely feels gross even if its not a crime.
I guess maybe it slipped down people’s consciousness because its very much him living the gimmick. Like ‘oh no, the dude from Rammstein is a horrible sex person’, their whole deal for the last 25 years is being a horrible sex band doing horrible sex music. I imagine a lot of people will have seen the headline and thought “yeah, probably” and immediately moved on.
But then I’ve read so many old rock biographies that celebrate behaviour that now would get them locked up so maybe metal fans have had our senses deadened to what rockstars do. All of The Dirt reads like a confession and lets not start on Led Zep.

Well this has been a good test for the echo chamber. Now, what we don't know is if the ones chosen were dressed liked they wanted to go backstage with the lead singer. If you dress showing your cleavage, don't get mad if I stare. They could have been dressed provocatively which means it wasn't he fault. Am I doing it right?

He gets all his pants from Next. The text on the waistband reminds the girls they're special

I like how threads are segueing into pants now. Pants is the new wanking.

“Junk Crusher” is a badass name for a metal band to be fair.

I think Fear Factory had a song about that.

Whenever someone comes out with a statement like "sometimes cancel culture can be silly", I am always shocked (not shocked) that the next question to them isn't "can you give us an example?"
If they were asked, my guess is they wouldn't be able to or if they did the example wouldn't be silly.
