Ronnie Radke of Falling in Reverse recently sparked further tension in his ongoing feud with Sebastian Bach and Adam Lazzara. The drama began when Radke posted an Instagram story showing a conversation with a fan, who asked him who he would fight and why. Radke replied, naming Bach, Lazzara, and the entire band The Used, calling them ‘punk ass b*tches’ for similar past reasons. “Sebastian Bach, Adam Lazzara from Taking Back Sunday [and] The Used as a whole cuz they’re all punk ass b*tches and all for the same reasons. I’d actually fight the entirety of The Used by myself but they’d never.”
The origins of the conflict with Bach date back to 2022, when Falling in Reverse had to cancel a gig after losing their laptops, containing important performance preparations. Radke defended the band against criticism by mentioning that many artists, including Bach, use backing tracks in their performances. Bach responded with, “Wow, dummy, are you trying to say that you believe that I use tracks on stage? Eddie Trunk, how f*cking funny is this?”
In response, Radke posted a controversial screenshot from a video allegedly showing Bach in a compromising position, naked with a ball in his mouth while pretending to be a dog. “Please stop talking bad about me before I literally make the internet implode with this video that I have of you with a ball in your mouth pretending to be a dog naked,” he wrote.
Bach, for his part, has claimed that he didn’t even know who Radke was.
Meanwhile, Radke’s feud with Adam Lazzara goes back several years to when Radke was just 17. In a video, Radke reflected on the release of his rap-rock song ‘Alone’ in 2013, his attempt to try something new musically. Radke recalled that Lazzara mocked him on Twitter. “This is what Adam Lazzara, the singer of Taking Back Sunday, a band I used to look up to when I was like 17, this is what he tweeted at me. ‘Why hasn’t the real hip-hop world shut this ass hat Ronnie Radke up yet?'”
He offered to replace Lazzara as the singer for a show, saying he could do a better job and would do it for free. “Because at one point he was hailed as this rock God, and then everybody grew up and realized it was all a house of cards. So this message is to actually Taking Back Sunday. If you guys ever need an actual vocalist that can sing in key and that destroys your current vocalist, hit me up. I’ll do one show you guys can keep all my shares of the money. You shouldn’t pay me, I’ll do it for free.”
Both Bach and Lazzara have not responded to the feud, and it’s unclear if they will make up.
