13 Reasons Why: Dylan Minnette Responds to the Band That Slammed the Show
13 Reasons Why has been getting both praise and heat for its honest portrayal of teen suicide and depression ever since the show was released on Netflix in late March. While executive producer Selena Gomez recently responded to criticism that the show glorifies suicide, saying they stayed "very true" to the book by Jay Asher, other people involved in the show aren't being as supportive.
The band Car Seat Headrest, who lend their song "Oh! Starving" to the soundtrack (it plays in episode 12 when Hannah loses an envelope full of money from her parents' store), slammed the show on Twitter on Sunday. "As someone who contributed to the soundtrack for '13 Reasons Why', I am obliged to tell you all that it's kind of f*cked," they wrote. "Kids: this is not a narrative you need to subscribe to. Go watch 'spring breakers' instead," referring to the raunchy 2013 movie starring Selena.

Dylan, who plays Clay Jensen on the show, took to Twitter shortly after they spoke out to respond to the band's lead singer, Will Toledo.
@carseatheadrest Hey Will, I play Clay on 13RY and I'm a huge fan of yours. Saw your tweets in my feed. Sorry to hear you feel that way.

@carseatheadrest The subjects we touch upon are very sensitive, so no one's reactions are invalid. I understand where you're coming from.

@carseatheadrest That said, I've talked to many teens who've shared the positive impact the show's left on their lives and those around them

@carseatheadrest I can assure you that everyone behind the show, including myself, have the best intentions in making it.

@carseatheadrest Also, you were great at Coachella and the Regent.

Since the show will most likely get a second season, maybe Car Seat Headrest will opt out of being included on that soundtrack.
