Summary
The band Trapt had a moment in late 2003. The song “Headstrong” is a what a person who doesn’t listen to heavy music might consider heavy, and it captured the attention of the mainstream for a minute. In a sea of countless radio rock band that more or less sounded the same, Trapt could’ve easily maintained a career of decent tours and festivals based on the success of “Headstrong” alone. Their vocalist, however, had other ideas of how they should make their mark…a string of hateful internet posting on the band’s accounts. What followed was OBVIOUSLY the whiny cries of “cancel culture” affecting the band’s career, as “consequences” was apparently not something he was prepared for.
