Using rewinding cassettes to provide the same effect as turntable scratching is some PoMo shit. Otherwise this is mostly just the latter.

you're a one pomp chump eh

It's not the stomp in the pomp, but the juice in the moose.

way 2 pomplay

she's doing that thing again

yeah layin' down a straight naaaasty stax groove you mean?

Looking forward to the "Son of Shaft" cover.

haha i just saw that subject line in my inbox and had instant LOLs

it's actually amazing to me how much of my pomplaphobia is visual; if I don't watch the video, the song is mostly forgettable, but clicking over to the tab with the video makes me all NO NO NO NO #*%! BOXCAR

its also totally the key to their success ☯

has she fixed her eyes or does she still resemble a margaret keane painting of the ludovico scene from clockwork o?

Aye!

Still hate them but if I don't look at them this song isn't as awful as the other stuff I've heard.

Made it to 37 seconds before stopping.

Shhhhhh

I like how in that one shot motif (seen @ 0:14 & repeated) it looks like the upside down Nat is checking out rightside up Nat's boobs (and vice versa).

watched the whole thing. wasn't so awful. just kinda generic. real horror comes after the song, fwiw. "BROOKLAYN! BROOKLAYN!"

0:50

and I had it on mute

mom tell that lady to stop staring at me

MOM

that tape rewind noise sort of sounds like violent diarhoea

kelpolaris

She should wear those sunglasses more often.

I didn't like it

real horror comes after the song, fwiw. "BROOKLAYN! BROOKLAYN!"

Oh god. Why did I watch?

I hate the way he plays the drums and I hate whatever poster it was who wondered aloud if that's how he is in the sack.

^^^that was me and I'm sorry

i hate PP for re-posting that since I had missed it the first time

I hate that I sometimes now flash on their version of "September" instead of the real one. And then I wanna thrash a drum set into that guy's grinning face.

These guys are Room 101 and the Two-Minute Hate rolled into one. Or two.

guuys theyre playing in williamsburg on friday, h8 fap?

I'll bet if hecklers asked for "Free Bird" they would be one of the few bands happy to accommodate.

Boom! We did it, full circle.

we need code pink to bust in on this show

Pomplamoose is live a living Etsy store where the only item on sale is a puddle of diahrrea with googly eyes

Bet you anything Pomplamoose chick thought Hipster Puppies would make a great stocking stuffer.

And by that I should say, more power to Whiney for that.

Maura lives to tell the tale:

sad to note that whiney was not in attendance

He was performing a more valuable service.

i was in attendance in lieu of whiney and i was also very confused

lol @ she can "sort of blow if she wants to"

It also sounds as if you believe that creating a new arrangement for a cover is somehow offensive. Would you rather all songs not be covered at all?

voice comments are complete gold; in other news: water keeps you alive

seriously i stood behind a couple at the show that knew every lyric for every original song

meanwhile original songs dominated the setlist

meanwhile how can this even happen

how can a band fill their setlist with songs they've written, or how can their fans learn the words?

either way it's bafflingly unprecedented, I agree

man i bet some people even enjoyed themselves

what the hell

but, here, i wasn't sure what to expect because i was watching:

- a band mostly known for their precious covers of popular songs
- a band that got popular mostly through youtube

it is maybe wrong or stupid to be surprised/confused by a completely enthusiastic crowd responding to original songs in that context, but there you go

moment of clarity reached when mid-set the drummer asked the crowd who subscribed to their youtube channel

I interpreted how can this even happen as Eli Eli lama sabachthani? not literally how can it happen

well how does it feel to be wrong

:/ wtf
