- Lostprophets are on Warped Tour in support of their latest album, Weapons, and some are viewing it as a comeback, but singer Ian Watkins tells Artisan News their last album was squashed by Rick Rubin.
This dude is the proof that you don't need to seem like a piece of shit or have a shit childhood to turn into an absolute fucking monster.
I thought this.
I clicked on this interview to see if I could spot his horns but I can o ly see a normalish man who did the most sick twisted things.
I agree
Which is why I know that whatever a human is, they were born to be. Tells you everything you need to know about a fkn “creator.”
Pedos are anyone, rock stars, cops, bank managers, youth pastors, teachers, doctors, BUT the ones who get away with it for years are usually jobs in authority, in charge, the boss, etc.
lol, he totally seems like a piece of shit. But pop culture has made self-centered douchebaggery and unfortunately, also debauchery, totally acceptable, with acts pertaining to the very young being perhaps the last line of defense. Judging people by what they look like has become a forgotten art, but it's very useful for avoiding big problems you slide in with some.
@@solomoon3083 I could tell within 5 seconds of this video playing I was looking at evil
The lostprophets are proof that every generation has its own Gary Glitter
I wonder why they Always come from Britain

Every generation has its pedophiles, they are everywhere and in all walks of life 🤮 Especially in the entertainment industry, it's literally a mecca for them.

More like LOSTPROFITS now.
He's actually made money since this whole thing happened and he's set to make six figure a year.
TSS FAWK YEA!
NoOne was that some kind of joke? Lame ass
Lostpedophiles
@@user-rv1nr4vl9f Hahaha, no he's not!
apparently his got 35 years in jail, nowhere close to what he deserves.
He would´ve gotten 10 years in Sweden, be glad the trial didn´t happen here.
The unfortunate thing is that he will be eligible for parole after serving two thirds of his sentence. He could get out early with good behaviour.
*****
He DIDN'T rape any kids??? Are you serious or just taking the same drugs as Watkins does? Can you even read?? This is not about explicit photos...Watkins pleads guilty to a total of 13 offenses including having sex with children and filming it, for ex. there is video material about him having sex with a 5 year old girl... Not someone else, it's HIM. And this isn't rape???What about those 2 women who drugged and raped their babies AND filmed it for him, because W. told them to? BTW prosecutors are still investigating the case, because rumours about him raping babies have been going on for YEARS. Who knows how many babies have already been raped or worse by this piece of shit. There will me much, much more victims if we only wait long enough. But you only believe what you want to believe, eh? Just shut up before someone has a close look at YOUR computer... or your brain...
*****
well, facts have been spreading around for months now. What about not commenting such serious legal matters if you really don't know them? But I'm relieved to find out you're not just another one of those psychos... Thank you for answering.
*****
If you knew anything about psychology you would know that this man is a psychopath and psychopaths can´t be rehabilitated, they will only do the same thing again over and over again.
Proof that Rick Rubin can sense things beyond most mortals.
Agreed
Na his artist are pedos
what did Rick Rubin do?
His label, Def Jams, was mentioned in the logs
The scariest thing about this is that he seems rather normal and even likable. I thought he'd be more sinister (I know it's naive). We often think that predators are always obvious, that we could protect ourselves from them, but that isn't the case. So terribly disturbing.
Yeah... I've stumbled on this story now, and searched for an interview just to see if I can recognise evil in his eyes, face, and now I'm in shock how "normal" he looks.
@@swatkabombonica4103
People are a million times more complex than generic good vs evil stereotypes. Everyone is capable of doing good or bad. Even though Ian is a fucked up individual, he's not "the spawn of satan" or anything corny.
You wanted him to look vicious and evil, which means you were preoccupied with the image of an 'evil child rapist' that you wanted to superimpose on this guy, so when you saw him the reverse gear of perception happened..! We all have 'stereotypes' of criminals, heroes etc in our minds. I recognized this guy to be a true psycho from the very first sight. He has that bad vibe, crooked eyes and also the way he speaks were all red flags to me.
Likable🤨he’s fucking ugly and this music sucks
@@Wheelio there may not be genuine satanic evil, but Watkins definitely tried. He actively described his crimes as "spreading his evil around." He wanted to be a monster that could fool everyone and lead a double life. If there was genuine evil Ian would've wanted to aspire to get there.

Not at all! Lol 😂
Not soon enough!
1:54 Good to see the fly in the room found the biggest piece of shit possible.
It cracks me up how everyone noticed that fly...lol
A town called hypocrisy is the creepiest video after finding out about this guy.
I used to clown and poke fun at my friends for liking this band, now I can't even make jokes, it's all so fucked up and 35 years is just not a good enough punishment.
You’re just way ahead of your friends…
Ian was talking a load of nonce-sense, as usual.
I see what you did there 🤣🤣🤣
Don't know why I just watched this. He makes my skin crawl
He makes you feel good. Hopefully he'll see you in your dreams.
@@AoiGP Someone tried to troll
The script of this pedophile from the jugde is the most disturbing thing I ever read
@@silenttvshka And they failed big time
Despite his crimes, Ian is or was a very talented singer and songwriter whi h cannot be denied and those who disagree are biased because of his heinous crimes. Lostprophets made some damn good music despite everything that's happened, and just like people are with Michael Jackson just ignore him as a person but enjoy the music
What's creepy is if you didn't know what happened, he seems like a very likable guy. Very charismatic.
Zdawg1029 I was thinking exactly the same. A wolf in sheep's clothing. I'd never know.
Psychopaths usually are.
Most of the narcisstic sociopaths and psychopaths are!!!
Crack is what happened
@@Hoscitt cocaine doesn't turn you into a pedophile. It's just a fuckin stimulant lol
Did you catch the bit about sharing a bus with a teenage girl band? Guy probably cut his own brake cables.
Its supicious to me, why have to use their bus just because it broke down ? mmmm yeh right
This is 💯 the look of someone who’s been up for days on some dark shit.
He looked wrecked in this video, like he hadnt slept in a year
Drugs do that to a man
Look at this and perhaps realize, you cannot go by how someone seems. He seems like a pleasant guy. I have met real mean assholes that would never do what he did. Never even think of it. That is something lost in western society. The ability to feel someone's inner energy ingredients.
Very true. Hit the spot.
good observations, ubt actually he does seem a bit sick in the head - to me at least - its all in his eyes - they got that cold look of dishonesty and evil.
Vagabond 127 That may not really be his "eyes" I don't really believe in that, because that is physical. I knew people that had 'dead eyes', cold eyes, hateful eyes, insane eyes, but it didn't actually tell who they were. That was actually something they did, consciously or not, as a protection, growing up. You probably feel his energy body. But I wonder if we had been in the room with him, before people knew, and could tell. I did, not too long ago, at a job, met another worker. And I immediately felt 'serial killer' And I never felt that about anyone before or since, and it was not confirmed.
I figured, and what I felt, was he had not actually done anything, at that point, but it was inside of him. The co-worker, I mean.
“unable to Read someone’s inner energy ingredients” SO TRUE
@@neaituppi7306 I'm sorry but that sounds like a lot of new wave paranoid clap trap. Furthermore you might think this is a 'Western' phenomenon awful things like murder, oppression, rape etc are not as prevalent as they are in other parts of the world. Gut reactions are all well and good but did you ever stop to think of the affect your having on other people by judging them so? As someone who struggles with interaction, I meet people like you all the time who for reasons unknown to myself do not want anything to do with me.
So I'd say becareful who you accuse of being a potential serial killer, because if you're wrong then it's you that's carrying that darkness not the other person.
I guess on his gravestone they can write, "He touched many..."
Hahahaha
*piss on his gravestone
Mabey Rubin didn’t back them as listened to some gossip that was true ?
He's not *really* getting a gravestone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man, i just feel betrayed. I just went back and listened to Last Train Home, a song which used to strike such a chord with me, now i feel nothing. I can only hope that his time locked up will be a living hell for the remainder of his life.
Same I just found out. That song reminds me of freshman year in high school now I’m 29! And this man i a piece of shit.
You have shit taste in music
People like you need to learn to separate the art from the person- LP is still a great kickass band... or was.
Time makes it dust but these recordings will live on
@@Matanumi No what will live on is the incalculable harm he did to his victims. The scars both mental and physical he left them with and the haunting, horrifying memories imprinted on their psyches. All that he stole from them which they'll never recover.
@@Matanumi I generally agree with separating the art from the artist, but when the artist lives in current time and has raped children, it's pretty hard to ignore. I'm not a fan of this band, I'd never even heard of them before an offhand comment on a channel I watch, but like, christ.
People need to realize that predators are most often very charming and attractive. That is how they are able to "groom" their prey. If he appeared as the crazed disgusting pile of garbage that he is then he wouldn't have been able to commit most of his vile crimes.
Correct Amber
That or else people like Ian Watkins have different parts to their being. There were acceptable parts to him; his music career for one. There were problematic parts to him; his drug use. Then there was the horrific dark part. He couldn’t control that part but he also never tried to seek help. Consequentially, he hurt so many people.
@Astro Jenkins I'm glad you think it's funny
@Astro Jenkins not the babies or kids but their parents
Rick Rubin is a smart guy, he knew something was off with that guy and decided to have nothing to do with him.
How do you know that? Rick Rubin is a busy dude who likes to jump from projects from time to time
Doubt it had anything to do with that
@@shadowpeople89 Of course he didn't know anything about it, Sometimes people just have a off feeling about things or people.. either way, rejecting that album was a very smart move in hindsight, regardless of its success.
he seems so normal. It's fucking terrifying.
Most rapists, serial killers and pedophiles look totally normal, The idea that they look weird or strange is put forward by the media and idiots who would like to think that they can spot the pedo, spot the rapist, spot the serial killer, the world is pretty scary otherwise, but sorry but you can't.
jed factor Indeed.... it's very unsettling. I've spotted one psychopath, but it took me about 2 years. Not a great time frame really.
They all seem normal, trust me my step daughter was abused by a close family friend for a while before he got caught, you would not believe how close our familys were he was always doing things for us he practically groomed my entire family. he was caught on cctv with his hand up her skirt while he took her and his grandson for a walk. He got six years but has to serve a min of 3, justice is a fuckin joke. It don't stop once they are in jail it scared her and us for life. hope this pervert gets a good sentance.
Nah he's pretty kewl
Hes very regular
It's interesting hearing to him speak because he speaks very much like a narcissist does, sowing confusion and always presenting a very confident presence - I had a team lead who used to communicate like that who was an absolute monster and I was the only person who complained about him until he left then everyone else complained about him.
Hahaha bro so many narcissist famous ppl. You are only speaking in hindsight
Oh Ian what have you done!? You had it all, now look at you.
He never 'had it all' - having it all implies goodness. This guy was never a good man. He is pure evil through and through.
I wish him the VERY worst treatment in prison. God, he deserves it.
@@Schumitastic you knew what he meant
I bet people would be willing to pay ridiculous amounts of money to beat him up in a chair like that. Perhaps that will be his next career move, when he is released?
I'd pay my entire life savings to do that tbfh.
"the wrong ian watkins" by kunt and the gang is musical genius
He ruined everything. The band, the music, the legacy, and lost his own freedom through his own grotesque actions. Everyone lost. This was a band I grew up with as a teenager in South Wales, (as did many). I clearly remember meeting Watkins and the band at a meet and greet at Cardiff HMV which would had to have been around 2003 when I was 15. No devotion I fear will never be able to shake off the bad connotations with Watkins and Lost prophets, and the guys have to start again from scratch. The whole thing is just tragic...
Not to mention the lives he ruined of the children he abused...
@@lexi6081 Absolutely. The shame he brought to Wales went worldwide. During the trial I saw newspaper and media coverage of it abroad, and some in different languages.
A fresh new Welsh band on the block is from Llanelli of all places, called Scarlet Rebels. They're first album "See through blue" actually got into the charts earlier this year. They may not appeal to young people as much as Lost Prophets did, but they are solid, best new Welsh stuff I've heard in a while.
@@demonhalo67 I think you missed @Lexi 's point. In your multiple paragraphs before and after Lexi's comment, all you talk about are impacts to reputations, image, the band, even HIS own freedom... Etc.
Literally only one single word in all of that was about the horrible and disgusting abuse he inflicted on the innocent children, and it took someone to prompt you on it.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not really trying to take you to task over it... but just saying that I think you missed Lexi's point here. Peace.
@@Flatstick Yes I know, many commenters below have focused on the "fiddled" children at length, so thought I'd "expand" on the damage done elsewhere.
The collective sum of his crimes are worse because he is famous and had so much reach with a younger audience. This I think is why he attracted such a long prison sentence. It's staggering deception and abuse of power.
It's a spectacular fall from grace in any case, the rest of the band had another go at it after his conviction with No Devotion, with very little mainstream success.
I have not heard from them since, so may have hung it up and got regular jobs. I am personally surprised ex Lost Prophet fans have not supported them more but I guess the tarnish left by Watkins was just too great.
He really didn't lose anything.
He looks like he was coming down from a drug binge. Sunken eyes, tired, strug out etc. That'd be consistent with what we've heard about this phase of his. Around this time was when he committed some of the abuse.
1:55 that is the moment that fly knew there was shit in the room, unaware of how close it really was to a grand treasure trove of human shit.
There’s no way his band mates didn’t know about his predilections.
Hmmmmmmmm
I agree. And I kinda lost respect for Geoff Rickly for immediately coming in and starting a band with the remaining members.
They probably knew he was a pedo but I doubt they knew he was well what he was
He was insane at this point, and he looks absolutely awful, he kept the same look throughout the year I think. The things meth does to you...
@@jaggass no 😡
People keep trying to excuse this man's disgustingness by blaming meth. No, just no.
@@deanfowles3707 How have I excused him for anything? It was his choice to do it.
@@deanfowles3707 are you a meth head because you sound offended
Meth just brought it out. He was like this the whole time. He wanted to degenerate himself and do it in the most extreme ways he could. That was what really fueled everything. He deliberately got off on abusing people, and ruining himself and everyone around him.
I just read that in 2017, a 2 year old child was taken away from its mother because Ian was grooming her from jail. This is justice? He's allowed fangirl visitors and contact with the outside why? Throw him in a tank of piranhas already....
That is the real scary thing tho. He is completely and utterly unapologetic for what he did, and honestly he deserves life.
You can see the malice inside his eyes - they never quite match up to the expression he's pulling. He keeps widening his eyes subtly too - an aggressive gesture. Piece of filth really and he deserved everything he received in prison. I'm not a violent person but this man is sub human.
Nice middle aged housewife haircut.
his resemblance to ghislaine maxwell is uncanny
It's weird to see people calling the filming of child abuse as porn. Having sex with children isn't porn, in the same way most porn is online, which is usually exhibitionist amateur couples both agreeing to be filmed. Filming the abuse of children is filming a crime scene and nothing to do with porn.
the definition of pornography is 'printed or visual material containing the explicit description or display of sexual organs or activity, intended to stimulate sexual excitement', and I argue, the paedophile records their activities for the sole purpose of re-watching it later for the precise reason of stimulating sexual excitement.
Just because normal people find it abhorrent, it doesn't mean it doesn't fit that category.
what if the children were paid first? would it be porn then?
Read what I said again. I'm saying that recorded sexual images are pornography by definition, regardless of society's standards
Watching this back now I actually have way more respect for Rick Rubin than I did previously
"It was really f-ing dark."
Oh the irony
This is definitely the darkest situation I’ve ever learned of ….I almost can’t even believe someone is this evil.
Rick Rubin knows a cvnt when he sees one
You know. I came here for the comments half expecting fanboys/girls to say shit like
"What he did was wrong and he'll pay for it in prison, but leave him alone he's dealing with it, etc etc"
Considering that's how most people act when their idol is caught in the wrong... Color me surprised at the overall mutual hate for this chump. RUclips, you've actually impressed me this hour, thank you.
do you get impressed by a stopped clock being right twice a day?
jemimallah
Comparing the mass of idiocy and general fanboy/girldom that goes around RUclips over guys like this solely because they belong to a beloved band, and the whole "stopped clock" remark isn't even remotely similar. Thus not relevant in any manor.
But hey, at least you tried to be a smartass. Though you should probably try a tad bit harder next time.
Cessate the stopped clock is the screeching near-24/7 festival of complete wrongness which on a very rare occasion (ian watkins) has its wrongness directed at a target which is appropriate, merely by the occasionally fortuitous revolutions of apparent regularity. so uh, its pretty much identical if you actually think about it. which manor, by the way? is it eastbury? i hear their prawn cocktail will take your fucking head off
Agreed
This comment is interesting on 2021 because now the most loyal fans will jump off the train for a lot less than this. (Not a bad thing ofc)
The fly at 1:55 knew there was a piece of shit in the room.
he'll hopefully never see the light of day again!
The scary thing is people seem to think it is people of lower class that do these things like status makes you an angel all of a sudden. Get over that it can be anyone. He even carries himself like he is a normal well spoken guy.
ian wakins best cord ,he loves a minor
Earlier this week, we learned that the allegations of child sexual abuse against Ian were true, and that he would not be contesting them in court. Until then, we found them extremely difficult to believe and had hoped it was all a mistake. Sadly, the true extent of his appalling behaviour is now impossible to deny.
Many of you understandably want to know if we knew what Ian was doing. To be clear: We did not. We knew that Ian was a difficult character. Our personal relationships with him had deteriorated in recent years to a point that working together was a constant, miserable challenge. But despite his battles with drugs, his egotistic behaviour, and the resulting fractures and frustrations within our band, we never imagined him capable of behaviour of the type he has now admitted.
We are heartbroken, angry, and disgusted at what has been revealed. This is something that will haunt us for the rest of our lives. Being in a band has always been a labour of love and a platform to inspire people, not to take advantage of them. It’s still hard to believe this is happening and that someone we were once so close to has destroyed so many lives, lying every step of the way.
Our hearts go out to Ian’s family, the fans and friends he betrayed, and most importantly, the victims of his crimes and others like them. We hope for justice, but also that Ian will truly take responsibility for what he’s done. We would urge any other victims to contact the authorities.
Jamie, Lee, Luke, Mike and Stu
So surprised no one re pp lied to this
Why is he sporting a Karen haircut
The emo cut is the original Karen haircut
His eyes are bugging out of his head lol he's talking in circles and makes no sense!! Meth anyone ?
Lmfao!
The scary thing is this guy looks relatively normal.He apparently described his crimes as "mega lols" in a prison phone conversation that was being recorded.I reckon he must be living in fear every single day for his safety.Not so funny for him now.
creep looks 40 and dresses 13. that didn't tip anyone off?
His energy even screams weirdo pervert. I might not have been able to guess if the truth never came out, but I'd definitely think something is very off about him
3:12 +
LOOKS Like he knew what will happen to him in prison LOL
not for nothing but the ending of this video is a perfect example of whats going to happen in jail
Minus the shitty music, I hope
he was touring with a group of 'teenage girl rockers' called cherry bomb. of course thats who he would take on tour with him. "lost prophets bus broke down so they had to sleep in the front of cherry bombs bus" geez this is real life? the dude probably cut the brake line himself on the bus!
I feel more uncomfortable watching interviews with this... Thing than I do watching scariest horror movies.
Same feeling .
Every now and then I type Ian Watkins on Google hoping to read the news about him getting killed in prison or that he killed himself. As of today May 30th 2014 nothing about it, but I know that someday I'll read that news.
so sad how this guy just threw his life away. He was headed for International Stardom and wasted it for nothing...
He said 35 years in jail is megalolz. I think he was in a band just to get famous and get little girls to his house and do awful things..
@@taysinturhatapaus1853 yeah, thats probably one of his motivations. Directly, if not Indirectly
I can't believe someone can be so God damn evil
For those who didn’t, you have my sympathy for the betrayal. But who knew?
Never heard of this dude before... only stumbled upon this video during media controversy, but have to say... I feel really sad for his mother who had been recovering from an illness...to find out that her famous son had committed such heinous crimes against children must break her heart. But this man is an adult and is responsible for his own actions. The band name "lost" prophets is really apt right now... a messiah who was really the anti-christ incarnate guiding his flock astray!
His mother knew tho, the woman that exposed him had sent her a letter addressing her son's actions years before his conviction
His step dad was a pastor
@@eulogitoseulogitiou1421i think all parents wouldn't want to believe their child was a pedo
12 yrs of adoring him, going to all the gigs ....... I still LOVE the music & still play it when I'm driving.......my mind is well & truly fucked over :'(
i know how ya feel nicola they helped me through some dark times and now im 30 and this shit is coming out i dunno how to feel, still love their music though
Barrie Sinclair
dark chocolate times?
I'm the same, It's pretty sad how many lives one person can ruin.
I grew up with their music and i find this weird but ppl put way too much on music
Nicola Blackie I wouldn't worry about it, love; you might even start listening to something decent.
Wtf there are over 10 cuts in one minute video. How many lines did they do ?
Haha, this clown blew his brains off with the drugs.
The frightening thing is he seems so normal! I'd never have suspected him if he lived in my street. Scary stuff!
You can really tell that he doesn't like it when people say 'no' to him. Rubin told him and no and he seems in complete disbelief, another word for delusion.
I wonder if any member of the royal family liked him
Very sick man.. it is beyond my understanding how people can be this way.
Meth
Really hard to believe that none of the band knew about his 'extra curricular activities'. I feel like they have more explaining to do...
there is a video where they did a myspace Q AND A and the person who asked the question was babygirl or something and asked what their guilty pleasures were, and Ian said "youve just said it" and one of the bandmates said "ive seen the videos"
his sentence is no where near what he deserves
Did you know that "Ian Watkins" is an anagram of "I Wank Stain"
Watkins is a weapon. And a fucking nuclear one at that.
I just wish this guy was the only monster in the industry :(
NR Productions I wish it was someone else, if anyone at all.
Sadly not the case as much as I hate to say this.
After this scandal album sales will inevitably go down. You could say that there'll be.... Lost Profits.
Fascinating, he just seems so normal, almost earnest.
27 terabytes of child images/videos, kinda impressed how he managed to get that much, took some time and effort, shame it had to be kids and not just regular donkey porn.
***** Umm no, ATTEMPTED he attempted to rape him, but you can't rape a eleven month old boy OBVIOUSLY. He recorded it and admitted it. So no.. it wasn't ONLY planned. Get your facts straight.
***** 'told them the name of a baby Watkins planned to abuse, after speaking to the child’s mother.
The mother later called police to claim it was a lie and no further action was taken, she said. Three weeks later he sexually assaulted the 11-month-old with the mother’s consent.' get your facts right he was a sick fuck who planned and knew what what he was doing.

Lostprophets just released a new single, I Knew You Were Trouble.
This must only be a few months before his initial arrest in Dec 2012......I have never seen a bloke age so much in such a short time :( he was always so gorgeous :/ Shows what drugs do :/
no hair dye in prison :)
What a coincidence their bus breaks down while touring with teenage girls and they have to camp out in their bus with the girls. Also very telling of the audience he was aiming for......
not unlike the bands of the past...
Liberation was such a great album. What a Shame.
I met Ian Watkins many, many years ago immediately following a Lostprophets performance at the Tunbridge Wells Forum when they were an up and coming band. Ian and the other band members mingled after their performance. My girlfriend at the time wanted me to ask him to sign her gig ticket. I asked him but I was too embarrassed to say the autograph was for my girlfriend and so I said it was for my sister who couldn't make it to the show. He was very cool about it and seemed a funny, down to earth and likeable guy.
Peadophilia is in every inch of that country. It's judges, police, politicians. Rent boy orgies. Little babies abused.
UK is a broken country.
He's a pedo tho😭
@@ramatgan1 And the royals
Ian Watkins is a nice guy? Ever hear about what he was charged with
@@unitedwestand420 I do know what he was convicted of. My point being that back in 2001 he seemed completely normally. Goes to show you can't ever trust these people in the public eye.
Rick Rubin is a great god damn judge of character!!
@Austin Ivey watch the video dude!
How convenient the teenage girl band supporting them at the time's bus broke down and they had 'no other option' but to sleep in lost prophets tour bus haha
His band mates MUST of suspected something. Some of the acts he took part in happened in hotel room which I'm pretty sure the rest of the band members were staying in and they share a tour bus. They're just protecting him I think. Maybe they didn't know about baby's but underage girls and his weird sexual tendencies they must of known about for sure.
The investigation has been going on for a while now, surely the police would have took action on them if they did know something?
Steven Davies
Well, basically all they have to do is deny it to protect him and the police would be none the wiser. There's no evidence because they're not the ones doing anything wrong.
Serial killers hide a lot more from spouses, parents, children etc ..
69crafty His bandmates knew he’d become a drug-addicted, delusional egomaniac, but even they never suspected how much of a monster he was
Well they only see him 3 months out of year so they weren’t really connected with him they just knew he was a songwriter and drug addict they didn’t realize how much of a monster that thing is
He's now going to be doing the live version of 3.11 for (hopefully) the next 20 year's.
the Ted Bundy effect, affable, talkative, likeable
teenage girl-rockers cherry bomb. they should be alright then they sound too old for watkins

lostprophets comeback despite ian wantkids in prison
I feel sorry for the kids who grew up with this watery, diluted, drab music. The previous few decades had such exciting, ground breaking, counterculturist musical movements and true icons. The first decade of the 21st C had...this. (And, yes, the guy's indescribablly monstrous. Long may he rot.)
Mate, The Lostrprophets were a good band.
The second and third decades (thus far) have proven to be even worse for music quality.
@@locks69 lmao uhhh... i have heard them live and damn... they were NOT good.
Psychopaths, especially sadistic rapists/pedophiles…can’t be rehabilitated. Death penalty is warranted…and it would save us tax dollars.
I think, in the scope of delivering justice to its fullest extent, death penalty is too easy of a way out for sick monsters like Watkins. Flagrant and blatant cases like this one should give green light to invest tax dollars into a dehumanization program that allows justice and social morality to be thrown out of the window and allow for something worse than death penalty. Ideally, something that inflicts permanent mental and physical decay over multiple decades with no end in sight. That is what a POS like Watkins deserves. If not in this life, then perhaps in the next. Either way, his soul should not be allowed to find peace in any way shape or form. His life doesn’t deserve closure whatsoever.
@@gvs6462 A Part of me is down for that. But a “humane” death feels morally correct for me. I don’t believe in torturing others. Not trying to get down to their level…just get rid of them. Plus it’s just more money wasted again.
He may be getting assaulted, wherever he’s at by other criminals right about now anyway. Who knows. But I’m getting into Christianity more nowadays…so feel like God will handle people like him regardless.
Unfortunately it’s never going to happen, because of what happened to the lead singer.
He has young girl fans visiting him in prison 😳
To Ian Watkins: Be happy in jail!!!
Four months later...
Brett Deutsch what happened
Music is music. They will still sell music , in fact, Ian made 110 ,000 pounds in prison. Yep
And as far as I'm concern, the women deserved more time then him
It blows my mind, that the women only got 16 years at most, that is disgusting, sickening in of itsself. They could have said no, but they allowed it, and not only that, participated in the molestation.
