Accountability in Music • Page 259

That’s really fucked and to be brutally blunt, there needs to be more voices like yours in the punk scene in general. I’m sorry that happened to you, man, that album sounds pretty cool to me from what you described about it.

 

past my time, sounds awful

 

You mentioned that the record is "finished." Is it mixed and mastered and all that stuff? If so, I really think it needs to be released.

If it's not yet mixed or mastered but the files exist somewhere, let me know. I've got some of my studio time available in the not-too-distant future that I would be happy to donate to get that stuff done.

A record written by and speaking the truth of the person you describe yourself as deserves to be heard. The scene needs your record and others like it if the people in the scene hope to work past their shortcomings.

Seriously: if I can help, let me know!

 

Morrissey Supports Right-Wing Extremist Group On 'Fallon': Watch
he's been showing James Baldwin on a screen at his shows and it's like what did he think he was saying

 

I cannot fucking wait until Morrissey dies.

 

Being a huge smiths fan I regrettably saw him when he came to Toronto a couple weeks ago. I still find it incredibly weird the kind of pass he still gets in the scene. I was talking to people at the show and almost everyone there hated him but excuse him cause of the Smiths. I used to do that but I honestly can’t anymore. I’ll never stop listening to The Smiths but I’m with jpegmafia now

 

Extremely cool and good how he keeps doing shit like this and bands like, say, Interpol (who tour the US with him in September) or Grizzly Bear (whose co-lead vocalist Ed Droste appears with him on his new covers album) are saying absolutely fuck all.

 

Yeah I’ve been hoping Billie Joe, who features on his new album, would say something. Probably won’t.

 

Not standing up for what you purportedly believe in is so fucking punk.

 

plus the music blogs just casually promoting him

 

I feel like there's this intrinsic idea that legacy acts can't really be "cancelled".

Which, I don't really care if people continue to talk about pieces of crap who are dead now. They literally can't profit. But he's still being out and terrible and loud TODAY and this stuff still gets glossed over. It's incredible in all the worst ways.

 

It's better not to give fascist pieces of shit like him the oxygen of publicity so they're just giving them what he wants and justifying it because of his 'legacy' lmao, fuck his legacy.

 

I like to think he passed away shortly after the release of Vauxhall and I

 

I think people don't actually engage with what morrissey says because he rambles on about dumb shit all the time so they don't realize that somewhere along the way he's basically come out and supported fascism? Also wtf @ wearing a for Britain pin on Fallon, a party who's leader is so racist even farrage called her a nazi

 

98% of people on the planet don't give a shit what musicians or celebrities stand for and/or even know what it is in the first place. And that's including other musicians/celebrities working with them. It's all about money.

 

Madonna Defends Eurovision Performance: 'I'll Never Stop Playing Music to Suit Someone's Political Agenda' — Billboard

 

Well fuck you then, Madonna. Israeli apartheid not a valid reason for you to relocate your spine? Fuck you.

 

Wait this didn’t happen?

 

abusers always think they can sneak back in here, and of course people on Twitter are saying she's innocent

 

I'm less bothered by the fact that people like Melanie (and Better Off, since THAT happened this morning) feel like they can just come back that way and more bothered by the fact that they clearly CAN.

 

I see they’ve been RTing this shit for weeks.

 

Woof, first reply I see is from No Sleep. Love when verified accounts cosign this crap.

Edit: first reply to the original tweet, that is.
