I listened to the first two songs they released because I was interested to see what Charlie would do with them. Thought both songs were shit so I haven't bothered listening to this.
LMAO in the ten years of knowing jason I don't think I've ever seen him shit on anything I've loved more than this. And here I was thinking he really hated cute is what we aim for.
So what is a very serious topic for the livelihood of millions, is now a punchline for an album that has zero meaningful affect on you? Also, it's obvious, if you read what your supporters say, that tons of people like the album. No reason to come in here and post those things.
Yes, gallows humor is a punchline. I have a different opinion. Other people can like and praise whatever they want, their doing so doesn't mean I all of a sudden don't have an opinion on music. Like whatever you want, I'll still think this is the musical equivalent of cat litter being thrown at a barn door. What's obvious is that people think different things about music ... I hope you don't really expect a hive mind.
Comparing an album to an event that threatens the livelihood of many underprivileged people to a bad album? Seems excessive and not very funny especially in these horrific times.
To be fair, I think this is very different from "gallows humor". I don't know I think comparing a bad piece of art to a racist shitpile getting elected to the most powerful office on the planet seems kind of like a bad comparison and I think people could justifiably argue against that type of humor.
you know exactly what i said? why are you focusing on how it was said rather than the actual content of it. i have a lot of respect for your viewpoints during the whole election and how much of an ally you are generally and this really is out of character for you
Oh god people are going to throw tantrums about a joke. You shouldn't come visit the politics thread, I've been way worse in there.
No, I read his posts and they look like a bunch of stick drawings with some squiggly lines. My brain doesn't translate Cwhit.
