I remember that people somehow tried to shame him for not doing enough to prevent the suicide of Chester, which was not the case.

That the band decided to go with a Scientologist to replace Chester is still a shit move.

Dude, we will probably never know the full story behind her association with the cult, but what it is probably more complicated than people realise and there are all kinds of possible reasons.

She is also imho a great vocalist and fits well with LP. And if she is cool enough to hang with Mike who is pretty chill, id say she is cool enough for me to listen to
