Sigur Ross drummer Orri Pall Dyrason has left the Icelandic band after being accused of sexual assault.
I woke up with the feeling of being penetrated without my consent during a deep slumber.
I am so sorry you are going through all this.
But my experience from that night is completely different from yours.
She continued, You are gaslighting me.
Just fucking admit what you did.
Update, October 1, 12:30 p.m.
ET:Boyd has since taken down her original post.
Meanwhile, Dyrason has issued a separate response onhis personal Facebook page.
Loud and provocative words are in nobodys favour neither to me or her, he wrote.
In light of the scale of this matter, I have decided to leave Sigur Ros.
A job that is so dear to me.
My comment is I didnt do anything, he says.
And he was like, Im sorry, I just wanted to make you feel good.
And then he said that he didnt know that I was asleep.
And I was like, How could you not know that Im sleeping?
And he just kind of was like, Im sorry.
(Reps tell Pitchfork that the band did not see her comment.)
I just wanted to speak my truth, Boyd now says.
I sincerely hope it leads to Orri admitting the truth publicly and an apology to me.
