Let me comfort you in this moment of pain by noting the agony you spared yourself.

Pretty sure like My Chemical Romance wouldnt even spend $100,000 to make a record in 2011

i don't even know how you spend that might to make an album unless you're chinese democracying it up or flying people out to hawaii to record inaudible backup vocals and fleeting guest verses like kanye

Great Cthulhu man, was almost going to go down to the 3rd St. Promenade that night and drone on guitar there for a bit. Dodged a bullet

i don't think i'd actually listened to any of their songs before. wouldn't be that bad if you didn't have look at them but ugh her expressions and motions are despicable.

Here's my effort:

If I tilt my eyes
Upwards at the camera
I will look cuter

Their horrible lyrics make me yearn for the days when they only did covers.

I've been hiding under the covers since this shithole century began.

How is this indie?
Do they make goofy faces
When they have sex?

Watched song on YouTube
Heard instruments not on-screen
Oh, how dishonest!

what assholes frankly

ice cr?m, Friday, 14 October 2011 00:35 (twelve years ago) link

I am in such a mood now that I would like to kill both of them and wear their skins.

Not both at the same time. That would be savagery.

Oh, apologies if the couple in question post on this board!

some dude, Friday, 14 October 2011 00:44 (twelve years ago) link

so i still like that song "river shiver," it's catchy, however every time it displays the album artwork i'm like "oh i don't think ilx would like that," viz:

You’re quite popular on Facebook. I noticed there were quite a few comments about playing 21+ shows on the tour.

Yeah, this is a big, big issue that I literally just noticed yesterday. I would be lying if I didn’t say that I was super-duper bummed when I realized we were playing 21 and over venues because I think half our fan base is under 21. Not only is it a bad financial move for us to play 21 and over shows because we lose half of our draw, but it’s also not fair to the fans who’ve been waiting to see us for two years, and then we come to their city and we’re there, and they’re not allowed into the venue. I remember not being allowed in the venues when I was a kid and I freakin’ hated it! It sucked. All I wanted to do was see music, I didn’t need to drink, I was super clean. I remember being really frustrated. So it’s actually a really big issue for me. This is our second tour, we don’t have a record label heading up the whole thing and we’re learning what works and what doesn’t. Next tour that’s definitely going to be a priority. We’re going make sure that we play all-ages shows because it’s just not fair just to not do that.

Finally, someone to replace Fugazi.

Thought this revive would be because they were getting in on the Lulu cover action. Lol at Fugazi joke.

Mayne of Fules (James Redd and the Blecchs), Wednesday, 2 November 2011 13:32 (twelve years ago) link

are you joking or are they actually covering something from Lulu?

That "Bust Your Kneecaps, doo wop de doo" lyric makes me feel a million times better about every song I've ever written.

i imagine everyone would hate this fourth song because it is dreary and boring, but it's a bit dreamy and i like that. without the DRUM SOLO though

dreamleaf, sparkleroot, basilisk venom tinctures (reddening), Saturday, 12 November 2011 11:59 (twelve years ago) link

you know why the audience is so bored, pomplachick is wearing SUNGLASSES. her wide, eerily fixed eyes cannot compel them

dreamleaf, sparkleroot, basilisk venom tinctures (reddening), Saturday, 12 November 2011 12:20 (twelve years ago) link
