Lostprophets

Lostprophets are a British rock band from Wales which is known for songs such as 'Last Summer','Last Train Home' and 'Rooftops'.

When an interviewer from TV Asahi(a Japanese television network) interviewed frontman Ian Watkins, he answered that he was interested in many of the bands that were playing at Summer Sonic 06, which included Muse. Lostprophets and Muse performed on the same day, on the same stage.

Lostprophets disbanded in 2013 after Watkins was charged with sexual offences in late 2012. In November 2013, Watkins pleaded guilty to 13 charges, including the attempted rape and sexual assault of a child under 13. He was subsequently sentenced to 29 years' imprisonment and six years on extended licence.
