OK, I got the top hat thing wrong.

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 18:16 (nineteen years ago)

As for Turangalila's complaints:

1) I don't mention top hats in my write up (which you would've known if you read my write up) (and clicked on the SCOOP BACK American Apparrel ad right above it)
2) The guitars sound like gossamyr turds plummeting through a fetid atmosphere of compressed drums and subsumed bass plucks.

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 18:19 (nineteen years ago)

I didn't say you mentioned top hats. I read your review, which read more like a sociopolitical commentary than a music review. Now, 2) would have been better.

― Turangalila (Salvador), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 18:22 (nineteen years ago)

And the misogyny line, BTW, in case you don't want to give the editorial staff more coke money, is this: "The only difference between misogyny in run-of-the-mill rock songs, misogyny in hip-hop, and misogyny in run-of-the-mill emo songs is how far the singer's balls have dropped."

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 18:23 (nineteen years ago)

Could someone please submit 2) as a pitch to the New Times for me, plz?

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 18:24 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, my initial reason for posting about this was what Turangalila pointed out, that the social commentary is not in addition to, but at the expense of actually mentioning the music. The fact that I find that social commentary kind of weird and questionable is just the sweet sweet icing on my cake of bitching.

My review of David Raposa's writing skills:
David Raposa is not wearing shoes.

― Turangalila (Salvador), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 18:31 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, because I'm writing about what I wear!

POIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISE

RATIONALITAAAA-AAAAY

― David R. (popshots75`), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 19:15 (nineteen years ago)

Every rose has its thorn
Just like every night has its dawn
Just like every cowboy sings a sad, sad song
Every rose has its thorn

(Poison rationality)

― Marmot (marmotwolof), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 19:34 (nineteen years ago)

I always thought it was "poison rationality" or "poisoned rationality" but I will admit that "poise and rationality" makes more sense and I haven't had a chance to relisten since reading the review.

― bernard snow (sixteen sergeants), Wednesday, 13 September 2006 20:24 (nineteen years ago)

guitar player is hot. i dont understand their music.

PANIC! AT THE DISCO'S BRENDON URIE: "EMO IS BULLSH*T!"
Posted by Scott Heisel on 18-Oct-06 @ 04:37 PM
Upstart Las Vegas dance-pop band Panic! At The Disco have learned from their citymates the Killers just how to properly get press: Say outrageous things.
In an interview with NME earlier this week, Panic! frontman Brendon Urie was asked what he thought about the "emo" tag that had been associated with his band, and he had no problem telling everyone just how he felt.
"It's ignorant!" Urie says. "The stereotype is guys that are weak and have failing relationships write about how sad they are. If you listen to our songs, not one of them has that tone.
"Emo is bullshit!" he adds. "If people want to take it for the literal sense of the word, yes we're an emotional band, we put a lot of thought into what we do. People always try to stereotype us, but we don't fit the emo stereotype."

The band are currently writing their sophomore album and preparing for their upcoming arena tour with Bloc Party.

― Marmot (marmotwolof), Thursday, 19 October 2006 04:30 (nineteen years ago)

V. nice that Bloc Party could play arenas. But not with these clods.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Thursday, 19 October 2006 04:34 (nineteen years ago)

i finally heard one of these songs on my xm radio yesterday (thank you text reader) and the lyrics were so bad. how many awkward and unnecessary syllables can urie cram in? it was like a game show.

― a name means a lot just by itself (lfam), Thursday, 19 October 2006 04:46 (nineteen years ago)

and the production was crap so i don't remember the music

two weeks pass...

wossername was REALLY patronising and sarky to them on Popworld...but they kinda deserve it.

― 2 american 4 u (blueski), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 14:10 (nineteen years ago)

ooh details please? i hope more people will start bullying them

― The Lex (The Lex), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 14:21 (nineteen years ago)

i wish i could remember exactly what was said but the two members of the band were tired and pissy which made the inane questions funnier. made them come across as total cocks.

briliant, cheers!

― 2 american 4 u (blueski), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 14:39 (nineteen years ago)

eh, i'd've been nastier, though the grammar zing was perfect.

all worth it for the youtube user comments though.

WELL IF IT WASNT FOR JESUS THEN HE WUD NEVER BE ON THIS YOUTUBE!

― The Lex (The Lex), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 14:47 (nineteen years ago)

Jesus was a web programmer.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 15:05 (nineteen years ago)

Jesus built my iPod

He sang "If I were a carpenter" while he hacked COBOL to prevent Y0K bug

but she sed she threw bottle of wee at D&C = i hate her

― Britain's Obtusest Shepherd (Alan), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 15:10 (nineteen years ago)

Popworld really does hate Pop.

― 2 american 4 u (blueski), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 15:11 (nineteen years ago)

Alex Zane is my least favourite human being alive.

― dommy p is alright WHICH IS A LOT MORE THAN I CAN SAY ABOUT A LOT OF PEOPLE (Dom, Tuesday, 7 November 2006 15:17 (nineteen years ago)

Alex Zane >>>>>>> Derek Acorah

― Britain's Obtusest Shepherd (Alan), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 15:22 (nineteen years ago)

At least Acorah has a comedy backstory (the ghost of Bill Shankly telling him to persue a career in light entertainment). Alex Zane, on the other hand, looks like he spent his entire school years baiting kids into hitting him before getting them suspended.

― dommy p is alright WHICH IS A LOT MORE THAN I CAN SAY ABOUT A LOT OF PEOPLE (Dom, Tuesday, 7 November 2006 15:24 (nineteen years ago)

Current British TV personalities more loathable than Alex Zane

― dommy p is alright WHICH IS A LOT MORE THAN I CAN SAY ABOUT A LOT OF PEOPLE (Dom, Tuesday, 7 November 2006 15:29 (nineteen years ago)

Zane's hair has gone more Brand-esque (Russell of Jo? who knows anymore)

but not sure he is worse than Justin Lee Francis

― 2 american 4 u (blueski), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 15:29 (nineteen years ago)

Alex ~~Zane~~, on the other hand, looks like he spent his entire ~~school years~~ time on ILM baiting kids into hitting him before getting them suspended.

fixed amirite?

― acrobat (elwisty), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 16:44 (nineteen years ago)

That one guy in the interview sounded like Tom Cruise when he got squirted:
"Why would you do that? You're a jerk!"

― Marmot (marmotwolof), Tuesday, 7 November 2006 16:45 (nineteen years ago)

I can't believe I never objected to the rickety thesis behind this thread.
