      I’ve never been able to find a band even close to the sound Lostprophets had and it’s sad because I just can’t bring myself to listen to them again.

      Weren’t the rest of the band starting a band with the Thursday singer when all this went down?

      I didn’t bother to check out what came of that as I can’t stand Thursday singers voice.

      I’m always partial to Thrice as far as that vein goes. Senses Fail is a little more Emo but made it on similar playlists to me back in the day.

      I’m not sure if this will scratch the itch or not but give the band Finch a try. I don’t think they’re still together but their album What it is to Burn may do it for you. I actually think their follow up Say Hello to Sunshine is incredible - far better than their debut, but it is also significantly heavier.

      it is obviously unlistenable at this point

      I get this, and I’m the same—purged all LP from my library when I learned about this scumbag.

      But, I still listen to Michael Jackson!
      Can’t wrap my head around that.
      I mean, I love Smooth Criminal man (no pun intended). That music video is *Chef’s kith*.
