Music Shit / Re: Husker du you reckon?

« on: October 25, 2015, 08:34:30 AM »

I love husker du and have since I was 16, but the only record i've put in the last 8 years is metal circus. the others I think are great, but don't really have much interest in listening to them. When I'm in a husker du mood, I put on zen arcade and sing along to real world.

re: dillinger fou: I don't like that band, but paddy was at a handful of shows I booked and was seriously the nicest guy. He was on tour with a band (just using them as a ride down to florida) and when I tried to say he could get into the diy show for free since he was with the band, he handed me a $20. Still something I remember to this day and honestly the moment I stopped ever wanting to be on a guestlist.

Nasty Facts and Public Disturbance boots both in NYC record stores. Public Disturbance sounds great, didn't buy nasty facts.

It's not la misma selling out or you selling out or any selling out..... It you selling the culture or the scene that we've all worked very hard to create for 50 cents a word. You have every right to sell Rupert Murdoch our culture, but we also have every right to say "this is lame, you can do better." Vice (and many other internet magazines that are nothing but giant advertisements for scion and energy drinks) cover as much "underground" culture as they can by hiring people like you to write things like what you wrote. They don't care about how hard some of the people involved have worked to distance themselves from this exact type of media, and in the end they don't care about actually doing a good job (see: all of noisey), they just throw shit at a wall and see what sticks. Will this actually affect the scene we're a part of? Probably not. Does that means that any of us have to think it's cool that you wrote about it? nope. It's lame to help create something cool and unique and exciting and then go sell it to a corporate magazine.

If you say you're willing to get fired because you don't care, but you also want writing to be part of your life and it's your career decision, then aren't you sabotaging your own life by intentionally covering something that you don't think anyone else cares about? I think you know pretty well that this kind of content is exactly what vice wants. They hire young interns to write article about stuff that only young interns know about. They are buying people's cultures from them for the cost of an internship. Go take molly and go to a petting zoo and write about that. It'll make a better article and maybe they'll hire you full time.

Remember this the next time you are reading an interview conducted by a seemingly four year old intern that has a Motorhead shirt and Dead Moon backpatch and took E at Berserktown (and couldn't write a craigslist ad without a misspelling). This culture is being sold back to you in the most cynical way and you don't even realize it. It's fucking gross. This website is a goddamn rebuke to that, in my opinion, even this fucking message board.

punk snitches can get bent. new york's alright would have seen a fourth year, but adam couldn't deal with seeing his baby exploited by the leeches at vice (only partially a joke)

Paco's got the new, upcoming La Misma LP up on the LVEUM Bandcamp page. Sounds really good. Less bouncy than the 7" and demos, and maybe not even hardcore anymore (depending on how pedantic you want to be), rather focusing more on melody, especially in the guitar work.

Unintentional post-punk record of the year. Such a big evolution from the early stuff. Toxic State copies should be ready in two weeks!
Got record of the week in Spin(!) Really looking forward to seeing them a week on Saturday before they support Taylor Swift!

Spent all day listening to it until Bandcamp wouldn't let me anymore! Fantastic record! (I even managed to talk about it on Noisey much to the amusement of my colleague: "They have NO social media presence? That's gonna land us some clicks!")

la misma is noisey-core it turns out. welcome to 2015.

"We Didn't Get Famous", the story of 80's southern College-Rock: https://vimeo.com/40600465

A film that earned the director a Master's degree.

I'm embarrassed how many of the people in this scene my father in law has introduced me to. So many future-insurance claims adjusters and copywriters.

Ben Trogdon's Ivy was VERY good. disappointing LP (fight me) leads to incredible 7". disappointing breakup leads to INCREDIBLE second run of being a band. They are all of a sudden a very very good rock band with punk parts instead of being a punk band with rock parts.

I felt the other way around -- love the LP, Luke warm on the 7". What are they playing as now? Still Ivy?

jjdoll. Talked yesterday and apparently it's the permanent name? The lp is fine, it just should have been a second tape or something. The sound is flat, the songs aren't as good as what they were doing live at the time, and it didn't capture how GREAT they were as a band. the 7" is like, top 5 record of the toxic-state-katorga-works-era of nyc punk. riffs, catchy, sounds like a RECORD instead of sounding like a crummy dubbed tape, and it's as exciting as they were live when it came out.

Records are weak though and I think you're in the minority if you don't value the quality of a hardcore band's live set.

Total abuse still takes the cake as one of, if not the worst live set I've seen. Embarrassing bad noise from one guy while the rest of the band stared at him and then 10 minutes of boring hardcore. "Confrontational" front person was so up intimidating that people were laughing at him.
