the reaction to this band is so outsized, it feels almost too easy to predict some kind of LDR turnabout in their future

the controversy is funny... i guess ppl who are too young to have lived thru sum 41 and avril lavigne need their own panic over "real" rock music

fine, the guitarist has a publishing contract with the label and also involved with another label or group in which Dr. Luke owns shares of
that accurate enough, j0rdan?

I thought this might be a Tramp Stamps related revival. I agree the reaction is massively overblown but they really are so unbelievably corny.

yeah that's more accurate. but the idea that dr. luke holding some small amount of shares in a company is tantamount to ownership in the way it is being framed w/in this controversy is specious

Ditto.
Yet I’d rather listen to calls from my bank offering me service fees than Taylor Swift’s songs so the bar is pretty low.

I mean, it's fine if you were looking for a more woke, 2021 take on the Sum 41 sound, but I can't say that I was looking for that.
And I don't mean this as a criticism of the members themselves, especially considering how sexist most of the negative takes are, but it doesn't seem to bode well that they are already responding to critics with multi-page Instagram posts a month before the debut EP even comes out.

Yeah, that was one of the more egregiously bad takes, but also a lot of ugly "women must have had help with this" bullshit.

dunno, ran through it three times and it's definitely not good. I am aware there's some reflexive gatekeeping going on in response to the track and i wanna make clear that's not my concern, especially as someone who's liked a lot of other willow work.

This is an Avril Levigne/Fefe Dobson homage I can get behind. I will probably never listen to it again, though.
