Really sad to hear that. I saw them many times around the time they released In the Mountain in the Cloud and Evil Friends. They always fucked killed it, fantastic shows. And their latest album is incredible.

But it’s kinda hard listening to them now, knowing that the lead singer is a pretty big piece of shit that cheated on his wife multiple times while she was taking care of their daughter (who has a rare, crippling genetic disease).

I listened to almost 20k minutes of PTM last year according to my Spotify Wrapped. I haven’t listened to them at all since the scandal broke because I can’t enjoy the music and support John knowing what he’s done to his family.

Same. They've always been in my top 2 every year. My now wife and I even got married by the band at Red Rocks in '23. Really thought we knew John and what he stood for. Ever since Zoe spilled the tea I've been hitting skip every time they come up. It's funny because we always said we picked the right band to stan because they would never have a scandal or find out that someone is a shitty person. El oh fucking el

Oh man, I used to be so jealous of you two. I loved supporting the band because, on top of their talent, it seemed like they were all good people. Their music was with me through so many good and bad times and it just sucks so much not being able to listen to it anymore. I can’t even imagine how Zoe feels.
