Someone is going to play Chilean miners a Salem record and they'll ask to be put back in the hole.

i *do* like salem, at about 7.5 level, but the idea of an entire genre of salem-alikes is disturbing

cf i like emeralds and ducktails but i think triangle music / chillwave as a whole is pretty gross

anyway i don't really like or dislike music - i either don't care or have a love-hate relationship, tbh

ha!

i've never had the energy or the wallet/filehunting patience to follow a whole movement, even a small one.

it all sounds like some ~~background shit~~ to me, seeing it be a crit phenomenon as a whole is baffling
but then i like reading simon reynolds so

im not sure if that last phrase implies im a hypocrit, or the opposite, or both

i either don't care or have a love-hate relationship, tbh

o_O

it's called high negative capability

thnx moonship re: reverse trending.
cott, are you talking about "writers making up genre names/scenes"?

the idea of an entire genre of salem-alikes is disturbing

sounds more like anhedonia?

I still want to start a band called Giles Corey. Our first album is going to be called Weight, and our second album will be called More Weight.

1,000,000x better than any "witch house" group i've heard

truth bomb

Back in the olden days in my GCSE English class we were asked to write about a character from the Crucible, and I chose Giles Corey.

:-D

she say im down wih huh, i say bitch you alone
you lyin wit the flesh, lyin with the bone
she say i'm lyin wih huh, my mind in the SKREET
i say i'm not with me, i'm with she, i'm with she
now plane lights blinkin, off in da evenin
got me thinkin, wish i was leavin
it's not that i'm tryna be somewhere else
i'm not tryna be here... by myself
if you were here too i'd still be with myself
i talk real loud, i don't wanna hear myself
i'm faraway lost and i don't want help
if you could bring me back, i kill myself... haaa
not myself, that's just myself
i don't know if you could tell, but i'm in hell
i don't know if you noticed, but i haven't spoken
my arm might be broken, i'm so sick of jokin

I really like that Demdike Stare album a lot but I'm not sure how comparable it is to King Night.

1,000,000x better than any witch house group I've heard = drinking two bottles of night nurse while watching threads, putting DJ Spanish Fly on iPod really loud and jumping down entire flight of stairs in one go. Then lying in pool of own blood recalling childhood sweetheart until ambulance arrives.

I made a video about Giles Corey for my junior high school english class

it was way better than any Salem album and I can guarantee that 100%

read that post as "Back in the olden days in my GYBE English class..."

pretty sure it's "I'm a sheet, I'm a sheet."

at a party, some chicago dudes laid out to me exactly how these guys became famous, and its waaaaay to gossipy for me to actually post on a public forum.

explain it to us in a Mad Libs way. (band member) slept with/sold drugs to (magazine editor) etc.

aww whiney give us a hint at least

Whiney you little tease.

some chicago dudes

"I tell ya, being the roadies for Tortoise, it's the gateway to stardom."

a distillation of deej-whiney beef styles so pure that in the future they won't need to beef at all, they'll just permalink this exchange

"famous"? fo' real? already? Has something happened in the past week I've missed?

"famous"

We're all famous.

markers did salem like personally shit in your malt-o-meal or something - your interest in their whole deal is pretty intense imo

nah, just thought the Fader Fort thing was the most hilarious performance I've seen this year. I did buy their record though, 'cause I'm actually interested in their music. I do think Whiney saying that they're "famous" is funny though
