John Robert Centorrino doesn’t hold back speaking about his time with Crystal Lake

Vocalist John Robert Centorrino left Japanese metalcore band Crystal Lake in March of this year, as per theprp. According to what both sides seemed to agree upon in their separate statements, Centorrino left the band in an effort to spend more time with his small child. That was only a portion of the decision to depart, though, according to recent comments and posts made by Centorrino himself on his Facebook page. Centorrino started the controversy with a post earlier today, June 7.

Going to tell my Crystal Lake story because I think you all deserve to know the truth of who they really are. Gathering all the information to show the truth and not just talk it. Its time someone stood up to them. I will be that person. Be patient while I put this together.

However, Centorrino’s response in that thread strongly hinted to what he would soon be revealing about the band:

you would have to focus on Parenthood too if the people you worked for weren’t paying you enough money to actually keep your lights on, missing your kid grow up. Borrowing money from your grandparents to pay bills. But Crystal Lake wants to tour 10 months out of the year. And then one person keeps all the money.

Myke Terry of Volumes/Fire From The Gods fame was most recently hired by Crystal Lake to cover for half of their North American touring, but they have yet to find a long-term successor for Centorrino.
