Ronnie Radke, the frontman of Falling In Reverse, recently took a shot at Spiritbox.
Radke criticized LaPlante and her band’s Grammy nomination on X, writing, “Y’all can get Spinelessbox to drop off my tour cuz I said tranny gay fag retard, but can’t stop me from winning a billboard award and can’t help them to win a Grammy. Got it.”
When a user sarcastically asked where his Grammy nomination was, Radke replied, “I’m not a black trans woman I’ll never get nominated.”
LaPlante’s Trans Rights Stance
Unlike Radke, LaPlante has openly supported trans rights and made public comments about it multiple times. When a user on X told her to stop talking about trans rights and just stick to making music, LaPlante mocked the user’s profile image, saying, “Seat’s taken, Anime Jesus.”
Spiritbox was nominated for a Grammy in the Best Metal Performance category. The band competed against Judas Priest, Metallica, Knocked Loose ft. Poppy, and Gojira. Although Gojira won the award, LaPlante shared a photo with bandmate Mike Stringer, showing excitement rather than sadness about losing.
LaPlante is gearing up for a tour with Spiritbox, starting in London on February 13. Their new album, Tsunami Sea, is set for release on March 7 after the tour.
