My pick is Five Finger Death Punch and the obvious answer is Ivan Moody. The guy radiates that alpha-male wannabe energy and it definitely rings through all of the songs he has written and performed with this band. The guy is just a prick and a self-victimizing asshole.

I think he’s the primary reason FFDP is mocked so badly.

    Oh, gross. I didn’t know about that. “Didn’t know her age” initially, then found out, then had sex again anyways, then wrote a song about it that the RHCP played for decades.

    Any “separate the art from the artist” argument falls apart when the pedo artist’s art is about the crime.
