What's the worst thing that can happen to a band? The death of the lead singer? Didn't do New Order or AC/DC any lasting harm. How about the frontman getting arrested for horrific sex crimes? Yep, that's pretty bad. After their former bandmate Ian Watkins was sentenced to 29 years in prison, the remaining members of Lostprophets regrouped with Thursday vocalist Geoff Rickley to form No Devotion.
Musically it's kind of an angsty, synthy new wave rock affair, but the big question is obviously whether they'll be able to transcend the nasty circumstances that broke up their old band. We're not entirely sure, but if you were a Lostprophets fan before then it's probably worth giving No Devotion the benefit of the doubt.
