If we insist on having a persona-handle front-and-center in a piece of music, at least "poverty tourism" and "third world democracy" admits to the existence of poverty and the third world. (I'm not here to defend Maya as some sort of Chomsky figure, of course.)

and then saw this directed at Bimble. not much of a "zing", but wow....

And (1) don't EVER summon me to a thread again
(2) I am not interested in you at all for any purpose, let alone that which you have just described.

I think you are some sort of tasteless weird guy that is somehow also very aggressive in a way that I find sad. Try fucking a girl (or guy). You are probably Dutch or Norwegian or something and you are just jealous because you have no fucking idea what it means like to have actually lived through any sort of significant youth culture.

FUCK OFF AND LEAVE ME THE FUCK OUT OF YOUR SHIT ALTOGETHER.

But I'm not sure that is the whole point of these photos.

This is actually a really fascinating thread because it puts much of the indie ethos on display, namely, that forever unresolvable conflict between art and commerce. Most indie bands aim to shake off as many markings of commerce as possible and thus probably don't even want to be in a photo much less labor to make it interesting. After all, these are publicity photos. For some, even putting themselves on display at a live show can be uncomfortable.

But this is what people who like indie like about indie, gap pants in a park/café/basement and all.

wowzerz.

not actually that harsh.

oh hey here is a question: someone posted this on my last.fm 'shoutbox' and i do not know what it means - what does it mean?

Bang goes Steve Albini's 'theory' again.

it means steve albini does not have a good explanation for gaps in the fossil record

ban ghost rider

who is ghost rider

WHO IS RIVER WOLF

har
it's true that the capitalization of Bang made me think of Big Bang
this person/stranger and i have like 100% music compatability, so i know it's not a zing - maybe it's a zing against steve a though. shrug
xpost

yes, it's a zing against me. sorry for not supplying the back story.

hahar

steve a sez women don't listen to good music

I don't care if you came in to shit on El, Aes, Vast Aire, MF Doom or fucking Humpty Hump; what the issue is here is your predictable tendency to just step in like your opinion of underground rap means anything more significant than "The beats are not jiggy crunk and the rhymes are too complex therefore it is shitty and worthless". The only reason you probably looked in this thread was because the header was "Aesop Rock is cool" and you probably had a snarky "I can't understand what he is rapping about and the production makes me sad" retort, and all you did was just replace that with "ew El-P for four minutes, that's awful". Have you even fucking HEARD THE VERSES? I think Matos and I made it pretty damned clear that they're pretty different from his usual style. Fucking A. And "timidly closeminded taste in rap": yeah, that's precious. I guaranfuckingtee you I have more appreciation and tolerance for mainstream hip-hop than you have for underground hip-hop.

What I want ILM to be is something above "hurr hurr uh like dude that suxx"; you seem to approach most indie rap in a tone that sounds like a hyperactive teenager on a Dew-and-crank bender lashing out against all those horrible critics who said bad things about "bling bling" in their big-up reviews of Stankonia or Labor Days.

nate was so sincere and you broke him :(

i think everyone should have to take a mandatory course called "learning to enjoy and find humour in getting one's own balls busted." people would enjoy life a lot more. and there'd be tons more great zings.

i'd wish the same upon you, kate, but i think you're miserable enough. also ken otm.

my girl isnt a marmot or whatever so dude probly isnt interested in tapping it

CLASSY

chaki, it's from i hate people having sex

What you do is you go inside the pain. Then, the pain is no longer inside you - it's outside. But then you realize there you are in this new space in your body again and maybe your body is still registering the pain. So you repeat the process. But I believe that each time you make that move you are actually doing something toward eventually healing that pain.
