Accountability in Music • Page 695

Shes married to someone who was previously convicted of aggravated rape. She’s not exactly a great judge of character.

 

I guess Tiny Moving Parts have an album out today. Ugh.

what the fucks everyone on about today? jesus christ this is disgusting

 

if you aren’t aware he’s one of the two singers of Neurosis, maybe the most important heavy band of the last 20 or so years

 

Absolutely disturbing to see people in the comments going “Much love and respect” when the dude came forward about retiring because he’s abused his wife and kids.

 

“you can both work through this!” what does his wife have to work through exactly lol

 

predators like Win know exactly the kind of victims they prey on - young, vulnerable and impressionable, and obsessed with their music.

I know for sure that if grown men from my favourite bands approached me while I was between 14-18, I would have done anything they asked. Nude photos, despite feeling uncomfortable? Sure, because he wants me of all people, how could I be a tease and say no? Sexual acts despite the age and experience difference? Sure, for the same reason. I didn’t love myself and was desperate for attention and love, even when it wasn’t truly love at all.

I wouldn’t have been in the right place to consent and Win knows that about his victims, too.

 

Scott Kelly of Neurosis etc. names himself as an abuser, says he's retiring from music entirely and indefinitely.

Re: Scott Kelly from Neurosis

 

Don’t have FB what does it say?

 

Unsurprising

Arcade Fire’s tour will continue in spite of Win Butler’s sexual misconduct allegations

 

Love this band but honestly it’s just not the right time. I understand they’d be taking money away from crew and production members. However, if they want to fight these accusations, which they have very right to, it doesn’t make sense to wage that fight while performing.

It feels very weird.

 

pulling a 20-odd-date European tour with 48 hours heads-up was realistically not going to happen, unfortunately.

US leg set for October absolutely needs to go

 

Feist, Opening First Arcade Fire Show Since Win Butler Allegations, Donates Merch Proceeds to Domestic Violence Organization

 

Probably legal ramifications for pulling out at this point, unfortunately.

 

At the end of the day if people are going to show up to the shows why would they cancel them?

 

I mean if you already bought the tickets, I guess you could show up and boo
