would be cool if they could sing a gif
pissed jeans and iceage are all good. not sure how i feel about iceage's politics, but i'm kinda used to that feeling of unease with metal bands.

I think Iceage write some really good songs (as in they sound awesome, but nothing groundbreaking), but the use of their imagery is stupid. It has nothing to do with their songs, so they have no reason to use it. I think if you're going to use imagery like that, you better have a reason, or be able to put it in context, like explain what you hope using those images will communicate. The way they just put it out there and refuse to talk about it just makes em seem like they want to stir up trouble in the easiest, laziest way possible. Not only that, but they've had tons of opportunities to defend themselves or at least give the images meaning, and instead, all they do is whine "we're not nazis, I don't get why everyone is so mad." I don't think theyre bigoted, or right wingers, I just think they did something stupid, and hopefully they learn from it as they grow up.

if this is the case then it strikes me they've been largely unsuccessful in their efforts. to my knowledge the only outlets that have independently thrown accusations of fascism, or the imagery of such, out there is a blog from a year or so back, and an Australian music website last week, which took nearly all its observations from the previous blog. everyone else has been commenting off the back of these. the rest of your post is more or less otm the way I see it (although, unless there's something obvious I'm forgetting, none of the imagery or references that are catching them heat took place around the promo for the new album, and possibly not in the last 12 months - which makes it seem eminently possible to me that their interest in it is already fading)

bands using fascist imagery that aren't fascists = total bonerkill, incredibly lazy bullshit. GTFO as far as i'm concerned.

glad that you guys are digging thighs. they are ridiculously good live. don't think they'll be touring any time soon though as jared, the drummer, has obligations w/ his other group odonis odonis, who are currently touring w/ metz.

this was one of the best HC records I heard last year no question: http://staticshockrecords.bandcamp.com/album/no
ex-Shitty Limits, as are Good Throb
― an average girl realizing that leggings aren't helping the cause (DJ Mencap), Monday, 18 March 2013 23:16 (eleven years ago) link
Saw Good Throb last year, I liked them, not heard any recordings yet tho. I did recognise a couple of them from other bands. I think that guy from Shitty Limits is in every new punk/hc band in the south of England at the moment. Just seen they are playing Scumfest this year and Doom has just been confirmed as a headliner so I'll most likely be seeing them again there.
I'm not exactly on the ball wrt new London bands these days, was going to suggest Petty Bone but apparently they broke up already.

my gf was gonna play drums with em but she's in a millions bands so couldn't do it, which is a shame cuz i really liked petty bone. maybe they've split for good now, this was a good few months ago.
thought i saw the lowest form billed a couple of weeks ago? shame if they have split up. did you ever see 'the human race' play? loved that band.did a follow up band 'the remnants of the human race' for a bit, bit it died an early death :'(

it's good but i dunno is iceage the new punching bag cuz they broke out? that band isn't really doing remotely the same thing
― ums (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 19 March 2013 16:04 (eleven years ago) link
just thought it'd make ppl more likely to check em out, they played together a couple of times about the same time iceage were err "breaking out" so ilm ppl may have seen TLF then. also, live, TLF were better than iceage, so there
