Draiman is a self-described “very strong supporter of Israel” and last June, he posted images of himself online signing an IDF bomb and appeared to write “Fuck Hamas” on it.
Jesus Christ. It’s so exhausting to continually hear of absolute depravity from people who I used to think were so cool (albeit for this loser, it was when I was like 14).

I always thought that was a terrible cover. I couldn’t grasp why it was so well received.
He took a beautiful song and made it broody and corny as fuck. I don’t get the appeal, either.
And the music video…
Do you have any idea what the song is about? It’s supposed to be broody, it’s depressing as hell. Even Paul Simon said he liked the Disturbed version.
Perhaps broody was the wrong word - it’s like…a middle schooler’s favorite dark cartoon character.
