Yes it wasn't shoegaze at all, but neither were any of the records after the first (save for some songs here and there). xp

this is probably the one i'll stick with because it doesn't say pitchfork in the title although i have no idea what i've posted in either it's all terrible and funny.

ilx occupied such a weird place for me it was like the place i was most annoyed by but also wanted to be respected by. now i am too rich and famous to care.
who can say what's next when something worth writing about comes up i'll write something on medium when something worth ranting about comes up i'll do a video i just don't know. but i can say the day to day churn of bullshit on twitter / all of the music websites is reaching a critical butt mass where like i don't even know if i can bother.

When I think about the summer I mowed lawns to "Where is My Mind?" knowing that nobody within ten square miles had heard it AND COULDN'T.
Beautiful times, breh.

there is a second tweet related to that and i maintain there are sad things about music not being distributed socially except as a pose (secret underground tapez).
― $90k plus bennies (CJ IN THE CUT), Wednesday, 21 May 2014 15:22 (nine years ago) link
hey chris how do we know this is really you?
can you verify by tweeting the word "breh" in the next hour?

When ott inevitably dies of a heart attack it will be because Vans slipped a few flyers into a 100-capacity venue in Brooklyn that he's never been to. I suppose there are worse ways to go.

Maybe word got back to his employer and his 90k + bennies were in peril?
― 龜, Friday, 15 August 2014 17:05 (nine years ago) link
maybe he realized that a social media presence was pointless when he had a family, 90k and bennies, access to an open field and more albums than he could hope to revisit over the rest of his lifetime. that all the internet had to offer him was aggravating intimations of what could have been, glimpses of roads not chosen, which kept him from appreciating what he had.
