10 Hard Rock Bands That Destroyed Their Own Career

1. Trapt

I mean...was it going to be anyone else? When you go through making comments about racist actions, no respect for the people in your audience, and trying to minimize the repercussions that come with pedophilia, there's no real reason for anyone to listen to you anymore. Is that enough for you or would you like me to venture further than the past 6 months of Trapt's tenure?

Granted, it's not like Trapt were necessarily going to dethrone Led Zeppelin at the top of the rock heap anytime soon. After their serviceable enough single back in the '00s with Headstrong, pretty much everything else these guys had put out was nothing more than just by the numbers rock and roll you would hear over the loudspeakers of a Buffalo Wild Wings. However, with all of the tension going on in the world right now, Chris Brown just had to go and make things weird.

In an effort to what amounts to just gaining hate clicks, Brown has reinvented himself into one of the most deplorable people the rock world has ever seen, going so far as to make ignorant remarks about the global pandemic and trying to pick a fight with anyone who dares disagree with him. With both his and the band's collective Twitter feed being suspended, let's have this band go the way of the rest of 2020. This kind of stuff belongs in the trash.
