Falling In Reverse vocalist Ronnie Radke has come forward with alarming allegations against Crossfaith guitarist Daiki Koide. According to Radke, he became concerned about the band after being alerted to alleged screencaps of a conversation being conducted by the 37-year-old Koide with a fan said to be 14-years-old. In turn, he claims to have kicked the band off a mini-run of shows they were scheduled to play together in Europe.
Radke claims to have alerted Koide‘s bandmates and several European festival promoters that Crossfaith were booked at to have them removed, some of which didn’t apparently didn’t respond. One of those festivals who kept Crossfaith on the bill, ‘Graspop Metal Meeting‘, subsequently drew the ire of Radke for their apparent decision not to remove Crossfaith.
In the below video, which has since been deleted from Radke‘s TikTok, he also shared screencaps of an alleged conversation with Crossfaith vocalist Kenta Koie regarding Koide, urging the band to fire the guitarist. In those alleged screencaps, Koie claims that Koide did not know the age of the individual they were conversing with, something Radke went on to dispute.
Radke went on to say, “I was gonna be silent about it and let it go away and let the band fire the guy. They refused to fire him, so that means the kids are not protected. You need to protect these fucking teenagers.”
