First up, we're delving into the tumultuous world of Thy Art Is Murder. Frontman CJ McMahon has been unceremoniously ousted from the band following a series of controversial and transphobic comments made online. But that's not all – Thy Art Is Murder has gone the extra mile by re-recording the vocals on their upcoming album 'Godlike' with a new screamer who will also be hitting the road with them. We'll uncover the full story behind CJ's departure and Thy Art's decision to move forward without him.

But wait, there's more! CJ's retraction of his apology adds another layer to this complex narrative.
