I think its safe to say that his level of animosity towards anyone asking anything of him is a very strong indication that he very much gives a shit. If he didn't he wouldn't care enough to write a song like this.
I don't know how I feel about this. In a vacuum, it is funny. But it feels like the sort of thing Will Ferrell would do if he was playing an unhinged folk singer in a movie. Is that really what we want from Kozelek?
Pervy indeed. The "game" at the end looks fun though.
Not bad, should be about a minute shorter.
Here's the problem any time Laure Jane Grace pops off at someone. I typically don't know anything about the person she is attacking, while I do know that Laura has a long history of being disgruntled, petulant, and mercurial. Point being, I find it hard to take her side most of the time when she's being the least mature person in the room.
I was wondering the exact same thing. What is Snoop Trying to tell us?
I'm confused, are people upset by the fact that this is technically true and that frustrates them or they don't even think he's ripping it off?
The chugging guitars too... it just sounds so sterile.
Maybe not the Weezer we wanted, but certainly the Weezer we all deserve.
Well, they might have a case, small children would probably think that's a Mickey head.
These sneakers really capture the struggle of our artistic endeavors, yo!
This whole thing feels a lot like celebrity message board. What Rollins said was bad, for sure, but everybody has an emotional melt down on the internet from time to time, we're just not famous. Rollins is usually a pretty sharp knife and he's issued a very sincere sounding apology. I hope this doesn't escalate any further.
More of this racist, sexist B.S? And if you are confused by that last sentence, YES, it is racist. "No one else can do these things unless they are the same race as me". Pretty much the exact definition.
Wow, Tame Impala took that cheesy ass bubble gum crap and made into an actually good song? I wish this was true, I'd be so impressed.
I know this might be a moot point but regardless of your opinions around the circumstances around their deaths, neither Trayvon Martin or Jordan Davis' deaths had anything to do with police brutality.
Very great first day. This Festival is very well run.
This isn't bad. Very good musically, lyrics are a little hokey but I can live with them. Hopefully its not the best song on the album though. Raditude and Make Believe are Weezer's two worst albums. We are All on Drugs is their worst single. Hurley is a little underrated (though it has a couple of duds). Red album is very underrated if you include the bonus tracks (which are vintage 90s Weezer quality).
I we sure she's talking about Interpol the band? Because I feel like we're giving her a lot of credit thinking she even knows who they are.
Facebook People, barely people since 2004.
Is it too much to ask for the music to be half as good as that cover? Probably, but I can dream... for now, at least.
With all the antics it takes a second to remember that Death Grips released some music way back when.
Interesting that "shitty music" isn't a reason given for the hospitalizations.
Unless it is clearly not meant to be taken literally people should never EVER say this sort of thing. It is highly disturbing and manipulative to the people that care about you.
Comedy is an art of trial and error.
Fuck you for kickstarting Wesley's writing career, Stereogum... I got a novel, you wanna publish it? Dicks.
I care that you actually said something thoughtful and intelligent and people just shat on it with down votes rather than intelligent discourse.
Woah, song doesn't waste any time, does it? Has a distinct 90s, B-side sound to it.
The tracks sound... sort of promising. I would like to say though, regardless of musical quality, the band is pretty innovative with their little home movies.
I think the main difference is that usually, appropriation of religious Christian symbols are usually perceived as an affirmation of the religion. Most appropriation of Native American cultural and religious icons are done with total ignorance of their cultural significance (although, typically they are celebrating the aesthetic aspect of it).
Hicks (Like most militant atheists) never did have a very good understanding of religious iconography.
