The flowers & note Jacoby Shaddix sent to Jenn Wanser.

When Papa Roach’s lead singer heard that fellow singer Jenn Wanser (of the band Wye Oak) said she hated his band’s song “Scars,” he sent her flowers and a kind note.

Speaking with AV Club a few days later, Jenn had this to say about the kind gesture:

When it comes down to it, whether you like what he does or what I do or not, we both essentially do the same thing. It felt like some sort of betrayal to speak out against something like that in a public way, even though I still hate the song and can’t say I’m a fan. I’d imagine he’d say the same about our band and I wouldn’t take offense at all. It was a gracious thing to do, and very funny. Hilarious is what it was.

No one ever regrets taking the high road. Nice work, Jacoby Shaddix.
