Kill Yr Idols

So,

I just watched this movie called Kill Your Idols.  You know I loved it forever.

I love Lydia Lunch
I love Thurston Moore
I love Liars
I love finding out about stuff I didn't know about when the stuff is really good
Most importantly: I LOVE LYDIA LUNCH

maybe I love the idea of her.

Anyways.

She said a few really cool things in this movie. 
INCLUDING:

Before NO WAVE punk was still following a blues/Chuck Berry chord structure (obviously there are always exceptions to the rule).
So, this means to me, that nowave is more punk than punk.
But, punks thinks bands like Sonic Youth are lame art-fags.

SO, this means to me (as if it already didn't) punks are dumb shits vest losers, RIGHT!!!?


Lydia Lunch also said that in the 70's they didn't have to deal with the same shit NY bands do now
and that is
labels taking their image and selling it back to them

ex: The Strokes


Lydia Lunch is amazing, and this movie (it's on Netflix) is worth watching just for her insights on music, because she is really real.



But yeah, it kind of reminded me of this Bikini Kill song from their worst album Reject All American.
The song is RIP and in it says
"you can't put how I feel in a package, and sell it back to everyone"

Think of that shiiatt next time you tune in to the fucking Peak.


I'm so glad I don't socialize..

totalhate!

Just hearing his name pisses me off...


This guy bothers me so much there is already a post about how I don't like him!

This guy isn't creative, he leaches creativity from others.

In the mid-ninties he wanted to be a rapper.
In the early two-thousands he was in an electro/dance-punk band.
In two-thousand-nine he was in an indie/folk band.
And now, he is releasing solo material.

So, he leaches creativity, and latches onto trends.


I fucking hate you, Alexander Ebert.

...and, I'm not the only one who does.



Making music for the fame factor means you make music that doesn't matter.
I can't wait until you disappear.

FunfunFUN!(not, totally not)

Holla!

Do you know what I did!?

I told my teacher of paints, Chris that I would recreate 5 classic paintings:

Olympia
The Two Fridas
The Birth of Venus
Jane Avril Leaving the Moulin Rouge
Mona Lisa


But with a twist!!

Instead of painting the usual women in the paintings, I'll paint Kids in the Hall dressed like women!
And of course, of course, I said straight up I was gonna cut corners, but fuck!

Here's how:
The Two Fridas - The Two Chicken Ladies (Mark McKinney)
The Birth of Venus - The Birth of Kathy with a K (Bruce McCulloch)

I am not 100% on titles for the other ones yet, I've only just started the second one!
But the 2 Fridas is the like, center piece or whatever, and it's pretty much done!

Possible titles for the other three:

Olympia - Jocelyn (David Foley)
Mona Lisa - Queen Lisa (Scott Thompson)

But I really don't know about Kevin McDonald, Jane Avril matches him in body shape and facial expression, but I can't figure out which exact character to use :S :S

Maybe Jerry Sizzler?

FUCK DECEMBER IS GOING TO BE HERE IN LIKE A SECOND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FUCKshitshitshitfuck

I'VE HAD SINCE LIKE, THE THIRD WEEK OF SEPTEMBER!!

Reviewzzzzzzzzz!!!

OHAI!!

These are some reviews I did as a host of GRLGRMS!

Bikini Kill – “Thurston Hearts the Who”
The song I am reviewing is a review of Bikini Kill read out by Kathi Wilcox. Bikini Kill is the most intense grrrl band I’ve ever heard, and the lack of credit, and the negativity they got in the 90’s was ridiculous! Most of the time you can’t understand the review over instrumental distortion, chorus, and terrifying screams. You’ll love it!

Terror Bird – “We Were Monsters”
I’m going through this mega-huge pop phase right now, and what I like most about indie pop is swearing. I’m a big fan of casual swearing, and to hear it in an anti-love song over a dark pop beat is the ultimate! Terror Bird is like a basic but better and more powerful, version of Siouxsie!

Blondewich – “Boom Boom”
This song is a cover of The Granny Smiths. (Is it a cover when original members are in the ‘covering’ band?) The original is very pop-punky. This version is slower, almost droning on to create a better version. The yelling at the end is painful and heartfelt, like every good love song should be.

You Say Party! We Say Die! – “The Gap (between the rich and the poor)"
Do you remember how fun this band used to be to see? The Gap has the most anarchistic message out of any of YSP! WSD!’s songs. Becky yells the whole song out, but unlike the other songs reviewed here, her voice isn’t terrifying or painful. It’s strong and confident.

I'm sorry for being critical less than 30 pages in.

Dear Chuck Klosterman,

When you say things like, "The truth is that nothing changes literally: It's always the same people, doing the same things,"

I can really relate.

But,
on the next page set, you have Julia unwinding, after a troubling day facing her new reality, by listening to Foreigner's Jukebox Hero and you totally lose me. 

I mean, I'll keep reading, but a gal reading your book that was published in 2008 in 2011 about fictional events in 1983 isn't going to relate to Foreigner. 

I'm not saying you should name-drop some super underground band that no one in 1983 would have heard of, just, not Jukebox Hero.


Your ever-admiring fan,

Alicia Williams


P.S. I know that you're like, 'into' that kind of music, but these aren't your personal interviews/stories - I wanna relate to the characters and shit.

hgfdfghjkbzzzzzzzzzzzz////

If alternative is the norm, what is alternative?

The 90's are back and so is distortion.
and floral, and flannel.

Who knew subculture would turn into cookie cutter.

Everyone looks like they listen to Sonic Youth,
but they've only heard Superstar because it's in Juno!
