The older I grow, the more I am convinced that if "rock is dead" it's because people keep on complaining+sticking to the past (read: Queen in 2019...) instead of paying attention AND money (I mean: concerts if anything else...) to great musicians to bring them to the next level. Rock needs only one thing to stay alive: people to support artists! Don't you hear them? Rock is fucking alive, folks. Thank you for being here.

While yes, it's ridiculous to chock up a whole band's talent to one person, there is absolutely reason to compliment and attribute the band's songwriting to Einar. He's not just there to "look pretty and sing well", that's equally disrespectful and assumes he's akin to the majority of other metal/prog vocalists. Again, it's not like he's the sole songwriter, but a large amount of the riffs, motifs, and storytelling that makes Leprous Leprous is Einar's doing.
