Alesana parts ways with drummer due to sexual assault allegations
Alesana has announced that they are parting ways with their drummer Jeremy Bryan.
The post-hardcore band announced their decision via their social media, writing:
In light of allegations that have been brought to our attention, we are parting ways with our drummer, Jeremy Bryan. Alesana does not condone the actions alleged nor will we condone any retaliation from our fan base towards the person involved.
We have always tried to foster a safe and postive environment for fans at our concerts and apologize that it wasn't the case in this situation.
Our hearts go out to any victims of this type of offense. We're sorry this happened and that you've had to carry this with you.
--Dennis, Jake, Pat, Shane, & Shawn
While the band did not specify what the allegations were, Reddit and TikTok users are alleging that Jeremy Bryan groomed and sexually assaulted a 16 year old girl.

So what's the backpedalling plan for the band when this ends up being yet another extortion attempt?
Lambesis here. They say "allegations", I say "resume". It just so happens we've had some recent openings at the organization over here. Call me up, fella!
Extortion hahahah yea a drummer in a nobody band has money worth extorting. You're a waterhead
"Extortion hahahah yea a drummer in a nobody band has money worth extorting. You're a waterhead" Alesana is still better than 90% of their peers and are definitely more talented whether you can admit it or not.
^ No. But even if yes, Since when does talent equal success? Again, these guys have neither.
Talented? Cool There's never been a post hardcore band that has been successful enough were the members didn't have to lay concrete during the week.
These guys were always like 10 years behind the trend so makes sense this would come up now.
Based on a cursory glance of this band there are probably more members doing the same shit
Maybe Bobby will quit Bane and this dude can just slide in there.
Need to research his politics before I decide who to believe.
Alesana is still better than 90% of their peers and are definitely more talented whether you can admit it or not A mall emo band playing watered down commercial friendly post hardcore for 12-18 year olds is not and never was talented. The producers who made their music listenable are the only talented ones that had anything to do with alesana
On average over the last 15 years 7/10 SA convictions nationwide are dudes named Jeremy. Look it up.
In before he states that he was truly in love and was blindsided and heartbroken by this 16 year old girl. Like that Suicide Silence doofus.
I am a redpilled Alpha male. You are a beta. Women are my property. My favorite band is The Callous Daoboys
"groomed & sexually assaulted" soooooo it was just sex. who gaf?
Safe spaces do not belong in metal. Purge the pussies!
The wildest part of this is Alesana is still a band in the year of Trump 2024.
Couple kid diddlers in these comments. Jump off a f*cking roof
^ Couple of kid diddlers in this band, jump off a f*cking roof.*
If you don't have sex allegations on you yet then you still playing Level 1 boy. Man up.
i'm not one of these believe-all-women dorks but it is genuinely surprising this band made it through the peak of MeToo unscathed.
When socially awkward losers became musicians and have a mostly teenage fanbase. A tale as old as time... Right Eddie?
