Wish they didn't turn out to be horrible people.

Dang, I thought it was part of the act. I mostly know them from Chappy. That sucks.

What did they do? Last I heard their whole schtick was "we are bad people, but it makes us money". Like that's literally why they made the band, the guy went "nobody wants my regular music, I'll just make pandering slop then" and it worked.

It was alleged that they abused their adopted children.

I loved their music from SOS and Tension, and I’ve seen them play! …worst crowd at any show I’ve ever been to, but the performance was great.

Then they turned out not just to be abusive and shitty, but sex pest. No bueno.
