With frontman Ian Watkins set to face trial next month over allegations of child sex offences, the other five members of Lostprophets have now released a statement regarding the band’s future, detailing their decision to bring the band to an end.
The following is the official statement from Lostprophets regarding the split:
After nearly a year of coming to terms with our heartache, we finally feel ready to announce publicly what we have thought privately for some time. We can no longer continue making or performing music as Lostprophets. Your love and support over the past 15 years has been tremendous, and we’ll be forever grateful for all you’ve given us. As we look forward to the next phase of our lives, we can only hope to be surrounded by people as devoted and inspiring as you guys have been.
