Woe, Is Me part ways with keyboard/vocalist Ben Ferris, Ferris says "I’m pissed and I feel betrayed"

ben ferris woe is me

Ben Ferris, vocalist/keyboardist of metalcore band Woe, Is Me, has announced his departure from the group. Ferris, who was part of the band's 2022 reunion, stated on Tuesday, March 25th via social media that the decision was not his own.

In the statement Ferris shared:

Long post.. sorry in advance.

It's been a ride. I've met a ton of amazing people and formed lifelong friendships while playing music over the last 17 years. But I'm not going to be in WIM moving forward. This was not my choice. I'm insanely disappointed in the decision making that brought us to this point. I'm disappointed in myself for allowing them to be in my wedding.

Impulsivity and short sighted thinking bankrupted a talent buyer in Japan. Fans were let down. That's not okay. To be very clear, I voted on honoring our commitment to go to Japan. It's an odd feeling to see something you helped build get bastardized. An album will come out soon, and I'm proud of the work I did on it. I'm pissed and I feel betrayed, but it's worth listening to. Thanks for reading. See y'all around

Surprised to read they even had a keyboardist. No group can afford to have 6 members unless you're k pop or Taylor swift. Guy is already replaced by a macbook

Stoked fresh fish guy is back

anonymous 6 days ago

Who?

anonymous 6 days ago

Woe, is Amerikkka under the orange retard. ^ I wish it was. Instead it continues to be a jewish state with its only purpose to supply Israel with infinite white male soldiers and weapons. And "the white savior" Trump has increased production, no questions asked.

anonymous 6 days ago

where's the keyboard? all I see is him bending over into a mic. weirdo

anonymous 6 days ago

I knew the comment section was gonna be cringe AF lol. How does Lambgoat attract so many douchebags? I'm not surprised Trump was brought up for no reason here too cuz there's nothing douchebags love more than that POS.

anonymous 6 days ago

Cry more, bitch

Hi everyone. I am a member of a low-key subreddit that has gained a lot of traction in taking down people like lurkcity and inkongudunk. These people are the kind of people who should not be using the internet. Through online bullying and invading people's privacy, these two now have a huge target on their backs. lurkcity has been known to look up user's personal information (and is also trolled with fake names and fake e-mails) and attempts to humiliate users publically. We are also in contact with many artists and bands to spread the word. We were able to locate lurkcity's old Reddit account which shows that he is a poser with no knowledge of hardcore or metal. Please take a look at this man's profile and do what you will with it. We also have located the firm that inkongudunk works at in California. If you are interested in joining this subreddit, please e-mail our moderator at takingbacktheinternet@gmail.com. https://www.reddit.com/user/lurkcityfl/ We are coming for you.
