Sorry but just to dumb it down a notch - youre saying that I shouldn't care because other bands play the same music ?

I'm saying you have many other choices. So many that losing the choice of this band shouldn't darken your day that much.

The Fake Sound of Progress is a good album. It had that "indie nu-metal" vibe to it, and I remember finding Lost Prophets on the old old old "Mp3 dot com" site way before they got signed, before MySpace was even a thing. And then I just kinda forgot about the band for a while and then "Rooftops" blew up and that was everywhere and I just personally did not like the song at all. It felt like your average typical cheesey sellout mainstream Emo stuff.

I get that they had to change and adapt with the times, but the Emo thing just never appealed to me. I liked them better when they were doing cool stuff like "Shinobi VS Dragon Ninja." That was a dope song. "Rooftops" was just not my cup of tea. You know who I do like though? Dredg! Now that's a good, interesting band. That "Green Album" with the wierd symbol on it is fantastic from start to finish.

"Hungover On A Tuesday" is also a damn good song that I can listen to over and over.

You shouldn't care because you're allowed to like and listen to whatever you want. I just personally didn't care for their Emo stuff...

The Fake Sound of Progress was more interesting. How would it feel if The Deftones suddenly decided to start making cheesey sappy Emo music???? I don't think many Deftones fans would stick around for that.
