I'll never forget a line from Todd in the Shadows that was like "The Beach Boys had such messed up lives that the fact that Dennis was cool with Charles Manson isn't even one of the wildest things about them"
The Beach Boys story is almost like if The Beatles collectively had the life of Chris-Chan
trapped in a never-ending hell for over half a century with unfathomable tragedies, betrayals, parasites and grifters all along the way
really the bleakest tale in all of music
