Due to popular request, here's a thread for both older and newer cows from indie bands including indie punk rock, alternative rock, grunge and so on, who do stupid things but don't deserve their separate threads. That refers to singers and musicians with unhealthy need of attention, claiming to be "punk" and independent despite being ex models or actors and coming from priviledged backgrounds, guilty of using nepotism to further their careers, reworking old genres, copying older bands or characterized by rude and nonsensical behaviour. Examples of indie cows or cows in the making:
Dani Miller of Surfbort
>"Punk" singer but incidentally a face of Gucci Beauty campain >Appropriates white trash lifestyle, glorifies kitsch >Copycats anything from 70's and 80's>Spends most of her time partying with LA elites, taking indentical photos showing teeth gaps on instagram and posing as make up/fashion guru on tiktok>Plays in a band with crusty, hairy old men and basically turned as crusty and hairy as themSabrina Fuentes of Pretty Sick
>A shitty Breeders ripoff "riot grrrl" vocalist and bassist>Most likely from rich central NY upbringing>Appeared in iPhone commercials, model for Comme De Garcon, Calvin Klein and basically anything else despite looking far from model size fitting>Posts selfies kept in annoying y2k Myspace mall goth styling and tries to look sexy but ends up looking grotesqueHeather Baron Gracie of Pale Waves
>A "goth" singer that looks like a mix of Siouxie Sioux, Alice Glass and alternate reality Robert Smith dressing strictly at Hot Topic, but actually plays watery pop music ripping off Avril Lavigne and Michelle Branch. >All of their songs have the same sound and melody>No one knows where they came from, they got an Interscope deal cause they were shilled hard by 1975 and Matthew Healy>The chick used to upload Taylor Swift covers before mall goth upgradeSkating Polly
>A shitty Babes In Toyland ripoff band with a vocalist simultaneously trying to rip off Kat Bjelland and Exene Cervenka >They had support of a lot of old musicians when they started>Friends with Starcrawler which speaks for itselfOther:
Clementine Creevy of Cherry Glazer
>LA child and daughter of a novelist and tv producer Nicholas Wootton>Acted in tv series and modelled for Yves Saint Laurent before deciding to try rock'n'roll lifestyleStaz Lindes of The Paranoyds >Daughter of Hal Lindes of Dire Straits fame and model Mary Lowett
>A fashion model and face of Yves Saint Laurent and variety of magazines. >Grace McKagan, a "punk rocker" daughter of Duff McKagan.>Emily Haines of Metric, annoying matron always in need of attention.Links:

Man I don't have much information on this shitshow because I was late for the train but Burger Records had to close down because literally all of their bands were sex pests.
Joey Armstrong, son of the Green Day frontman, was the most high profile one and he was accused of grooming Lydia Night of The Regrettes, another wannabe riot grrrl trust fund baby band.

I just had a thought, does Kim Gordon qualify as one? I read her autobiography and cringed halfway through, it's a book full of milk itself. It's all just *~i'm so artistic~* bullshit with VERY generous namedropping of all the famous and artistic people she knew, slept or worked with, shitting on Courtney Love (not without a reason i guess, but she just sounded jealous of the fame Courtney got more than anything). And she made countless chapters on her and Thurston's drama, listing each detail and writing everything he said, including descriptions of their marriage therapies and texts he sent to the woman he cheated on her with. Don't get me wrong, Thurston is a cheater bitch cow himself, but Kim's tell all story of cheated bitter woman was tragically stupid. She's so pompous and "more art than anyone else", even if she wrote a couple of good tunes. Plus she tried to make her daughter famous too, Coco had some shit band herself but idk if they still play. She didn't make career to my knowledge though, she just pretends to be alt influencer-social warrior online but i don't know why would anyone follow her cause she does nothing interesting besides being Coco Moore Gordon lol. Last time i remember Kim put her in her music video but that's about it.
Kim's another LA child from affluent academic family but at least she never pretended to be poor punk rocker (although she had poorer periods when she started living on her own), she even wrote she deliberately chose a bit different clothes and didn't hide she was old enough to be into artsy hippie shit rather than punk, i'll give her that

>>1279885My fav ones were when she went to Cannes cause she "starred" in that one Kurt Cobain movie about his last days before death, a drama not normal documentary i think (i haven't ever watched it). She played "empathetic record industry representative" (which means she probably appeared for like a minute or less) and she wrote "I've always knew i had natural predispositions for being a good actress" or something lolol
Yeah apparently Courtney "manipulated her" into producing that album with her "sociopathic" great manipulation skills (a letter with Hello Kitty toy attatched) lol. Also gotta love how Kim slammed her for plastic surgery of a nose. She had to mention Courtney had an univen scar on her nose during sessions. Or "One time Courtney told me: You probably didn't know, but I had a nose job. I thought to myself: "Probably a lot more than one". Some parts were so kekworthy that i can recite them from memory
No. 1280263
>>1279833I think this is a problem with Sonic Youth as a band (I mean: Thurstom and Kim). They are extremely pretentious and think of themselves as the "fathers" of the 90s alternative rock generation just because they have been around since the early 80s. Lee Ranaldo seems to be the nicest guy in the band, and the least pedantic.
What annoyed me the most about this book was that she basically wanted to quote everything that she thought would make her story interesting, because basically she had nothing to talk about. She starts talking about Courtney and Kurt out of nowhere, and before that she tells her that her brother almost joined the Manson Family, also out of nowhere. These are just attempts to make her narrative interesting, she spends more time telling other people's stories than spends telling her own story.
The entire book is written almost like a spiteful revenge where she wanted to expose the shit that Thurstom did to her, which I can't complain as I think he's much worse than her. But she's an annoying bitch and thinks she's better than everyone.
No. 1280286
>>1280263This. Tbh most of the time i can't stand that band for their attitude, they have a few better tunes but imo their albums are mostly underwhelming. Idk even the noisier ones feel polished and clear and Kim's "etheral talking" voice is fucking boring. 90's bands treated them as the coolest thing and i totally don't get why. Both Thurston and Kim act as if they basically started it all for grunge and whatnot. Bitch no. The ones who paved way for grunge/alt were Husker Du, Pixies, Mission of Burma with a hardcore mix of Black Flag and 70's punk bands + maybe a couple of cringe metal bands that grunge musicians listened to in deep middle school. Original grunge was effect of boredom and punk/metal mix of influences (i don't count Bush, Stone Temple Pilots, Silverchair and other shit in cause they're direct commercial aftermath of Nirvana, Mudhoney, Melvins and other stuff Sub Pop. Alice in Chains and Soundgarden always sounded more metal than grunge to me.) I don't undermine Sonic Youth's unfortunate influence but they were never so important to pose as some godfathers of everything.
As for the book she always oddly posed as a
victim of everything, if she didn't pose as coolest better than you most artsy girl in the world for a change. Her revenge shtick is apparent even in first chapter. it must read even worse for someone who doesn't know Sonic Youth. she constantly repeated she has some sexual fantasies of two guys crossing their guitars over her and revel in male energy or something and idk if something got lost in translation or what but i couldn't understand what she meant, it sounds idiotic.

>>1279868>>1279885>>1279902>>1279971>>1280263Could anyone have guessed Kim Gordon's memoir would be this much of a trainwreck? I haven't read it but it moved up the queue.
I thought her solo album from a few years ago was incredibly disappointing.
The Cobain But Vague film was Last Days by Gus Van Sant. Kim had slightly more screentime in that than Asia Argento did as the Courtney But Don't Sue Pls, which is to say she was onscreen for like two minutes. Most of the film was Michael Pitt staring off into space with a slack jaw.

Currently The 1975 are in hot water after ignoring grooming allegations against a (supposedly former) friend and photographer Adam Powell. They’ve only released one single instagram post ‘statement’ about everything, yet their manager has been straight-up messaging the
victims of the allegations for further info instead of recruiting someone more qualified to look into things. Many of the
victims are underage or were when Powell was going for them.
There have also been rumours of more info (including accusations against 3 out of the 4 band members) to be released publicly if they don’t start addressing it properly, but to me that just sounds like a weird taunt, and using vulnerable people’s private information no less. Don’t know what to believe on that front but I do believe the initial Powell business.
>>1279341>>1279412HBG (and the other girl in PW, idk her name) went to the same uni as my friend and he says that as soon as they started getting attention they acted like they were too good for everyone. Started cutting off long term friendships (like with friends of my friend) and favoured anyone who could get them further instead. I’ve never really liked them but somehow hearing that didn’t surprise me.

>>1282030Just asked for more info. They went to BIMM and were in the third year when my friend knew them. He said they were definitely the bitchy type; laughing with you one day and whispering about you the next. He partied with them, went to clubs etc. and his mate was the original guitarist. He wrote ‘The Tide’, got no credit for it, they dropped him as soon as they started getting popular off that song. They apparently got posted to a lot of popular music blogs and all across tumblr, then Dirty Hit (The 1975’s label) picked them up but shelved them for the longest time.
Matt Healy then said to them he’d produce one of their songs - think it was The Tide - and from then on HBG started getting touted as the female Matt Healy, went on tour with them even though they were shit live, played Madison Square Gardens with The 1975 as their first proper gig, did that NME cover and all that. Being ‘the female version of Matt Healy’ is definitely not the compliment she thought it was kek

I have milk on Yoni Wolf, creative genius responsible for WHY? (sic.)
yoni wolf is the frontman of the band WHY?, a band that put out one (1) critically acclaimed record 13 years ago, Alopecia. Yoni has put out ~6 records since then in an attempt to create something that will reach anywhere near the level of (in my opinion unwarranted) critical acclaim he received for alopecia, with little success. He threw an absolute temper tantrum on twitter when pitchfork gave him a 5.3 for his 2019 album AOKOHIO— a review he claimed to have stumbled upon by chance because “someone was talking about it on twitter” (likely story… see image).
anyway, the lyrics in alopecia themselves are enough to prove that yoni is an absolute pervert. here are some lines from his most popular song “good friday”:
-sucking dick for drink tickets at my cousins bat mitzvah
-blowing kisses to disinterested bitches
-sending sexy SMSs to my ex’s new man cuz I can
-eating pussy for new fans
-feels exciting touching your handwriting, Getting horny by reading it and repeating ‘poor me’
-jerking off in an art museum john til my dick hurts
-I wake up hungover on a hardwood floor from a dream about your dress, hangs off of your little breasts
in the summer of 2015, yoni “discovered” a band of teenage girls called the Ophelias who were performing a show at a neighborhood of july festival in cincinnati. all girls were minors in high school at the time. a few months later (not sure how long after), he started dating the bassist of the band who turned had recently turned 18 (at the time he was about 38 years old). she makes her first appearance as his unambiguous gf on Instagram in June of 2017, when she was about 19 years old, but she appears in group pictures before then.
the band got signed to the same label yoni is on, joyful noise recordings, and yoni produced their second LP called “Almost,” which just sounds exactly like his albums with kind of a ripoff jack antonoff feel. despite the fact that he hardly performed anything on the record (he’s credited as playing “percussion”), he has royalty credits on the album. he talks about the process of producing the record in an interview and says it was hard for him to work collaboratively with the band since he’s used to having his say creatively. Quote: “the band was used to a certain thing that they had done, and they sort of struggled to accept a whole new look and feel.”
since producing the Ophelias record he’s courted a few other younger bands such as Lala Lala (a terribly boring band whose front woman is an ex-alcoholic in her mid-20s who looks like she should be in her late 30s— and no she’s not trans) in a desperate attempt to stay relevant to the youth, since the weird cult following he has is composed mainly of tall dreadlocked white men and creepy post-occupy Wall Street-aesthetic grime hippies on the millennial/gen X cusp.
but back to the fact that he essentially groomed a minor and started dating her shortly after she came of age… she’s featured heavily in aokohio and it’s disgusting. the music video includes clips of her eating pizza and the lyrics of one of the songs is “After I say I'll fuck you in the bathroom / Of the pizza by slice place / It's not fair for me to ask / What kinda wife you might make / Forbidding you to smoke / Like the fascist butt of a joke / That is poor practice for opening / The heart to a possible start / Right?” there’s also a scene in the video where a random woman gives birth. forbidding gf from smoking + this scene = he wants to impregnate his young gf. bad idea since he’s 40 so his child is going to be so fucking autistic.
the music video as a whole is a retrospective of his life as a 40 year old man going through a midlife crisis. there’s a weird scene where yoni is CGI-ed into an old man who is then shown in a hospital bed connected to an IV watching home videos of his gf when she was in her 20s. the video also includes home videos of his gf when she was a child— he was in his 20s at the time.
yoni and his gf have since broken up (fairly recently— he posted a pic of her on ig in March of this year), but they dated for a good 4 or 5 years, and she moved in with him about a year in. he has Crohn’s disease so the poor girl has spent years of her life as a nurse wiping shit off his ass.

I don't get the Phoebe Bridgers hype either, but i'm also biased because all I'm reminded of when I see her is when she was in Sloppy Jane so I just associate her negatively in my brain with Haley from that band who is a massively cringe edgelord and has been forever. her like 24/7 performance art cRazYyY female GG Allin shtick is so obviously a facade and reminds me a lot of the Surfbort Dani girl's shtick. she was just a smelly grimy Burger Girl back when I knew of her, kind of relieved that Sloppy Jane faded into obscurity (plus I think they were friends with or associated with Globelamp, who I'm shocked doesn't have her own thread because that girl has a decade's worth of cow behavior, she's legit the azealia banks of the indie scene). current day phoebe's music is really bland so I never paid attention and I had no idea she's actually dated Conor Oberst. would have never guessed she of all people would get this much mainstream success
>>1285044I used to be mutuals with Kitty back in the prime tumblr days so again i'm biased because i idolized her in high school so she doesn't bug me much, but i never liked Teen Suicide and last time i paid attention to Sam he was constantly posting obnoxious shit on twitter and starting drama with other nothing-bands over who was the most
problematic. I had no idea Yoni from Why? was so sus but as far as other related bands go I used to know Avi Buffalo, who was dropped from Sub Pop last year for several (violent, disgusting, depraved) rape allegations from his exes and an ex band member. He was quickly run off the face of the earth after being canceled online and irl (very Hot Sugar reminiscent) but it still makes my skin crawl that he's out there somewhere, truly a menace to society. this happened while all those Burger/ Lollipop/ LA/OC allegations came out last summer, so seeing all these people i knew of outed as predators really soured me against that music scene and I'm glad they got theirs, and also that I'm far the fuck away from it now. I have friends who were abused/ groomed/ preyed on by Part Time, the Growlers, Audacity, the Frights… it's so scummy.
Obviously shit like that is deeper than "milk" or gossip, but the less harmful cows in this scene are still intriguing to keep up with especially when you know who they actually are or used to be as people. avalon lurks is boring and not milky, just kinda untalented/ coasting on looks, but I've heard her family's rich and i know she went to the same school as the shears twins from The Garden and (i think???) was friends with Mel from the Aquadolls, who i'm also surprised hasn't been mentioned because to me she's the most obvious tryhard in the scene and always has been super behind/ uninspired with trends (i remember when she was still seapunk years after that died out), her tiktoks are god awful. she's more of a personal cow i guess, no major milk other than being called out by another girl for some
problematic behavior (idr what it was exactly, general bitchiness and being complicit?) when that girl had rape allegations against another former aquadolls band member, during the Burger thing last year.
also would LOVE any and all recent tea on Globelamp, I haven't kept up in a while but she's fascinating to me. somehow she never gets called out or canceled enough to stop doing the absolutely unhinged insane shit that she does.

victims' genuine distress/ major gaslighting to
victims and being a convincing liar to friends. i won't say much to reveal myself but i do know he had all his friends convinced that the first public callout post against him was fake and that the

It's embarrassing to see 40 year olds acting like they're teenagers rock stars, trying to act like "too cool for school". I don't know if anyone else had the impression I had watching The Year Punk Broke, but these guys are assholes. Thurston is simply insufferable.

>>1286716Yeah he plays a character, puts this cap and clothes on, but personally he probably is this music nerd too, to some degree. i've seen Nardwuard's first interview ever video, in which he tried to interview some band that played at his school, he was such a kid either in junior high or high school at the time, everybody around would treat him like Sonic Youth here, school kids were laughing at him etc. And it was funny cause he was so young but pretty much the same as later. In this video he told Sonic Youth that "dirty boots" video was kitch or something but well he's not wrong lol. their videos are mostly so pretentious
I have the same opinion on SY in that documentary as you. they behaved like the biggest stars of the film/festival, who graciously let Nirvana or Babes in Toyland (or Courtney lol) appear for a few seconds and sit in their shadows to taste some glory. Or that moment when Nirvana plays Negative Creep and Thurston ofc must walk in and writhe with some beer bottle

>>1286308>>1286314Sorry for the late reply and for probably blogging about this way too much but he definitely had patterns with the girls he targeted, not that this is any different from the horde of disgraced indie rock male predators but he always put himself in a position of power. always younger, usually in their teens, often young fans who looked up to him or girls who were insecure or going through hardships and more likely to rely on him. i noticed it when reading through all the allegations on twitter. the trans guy who committed suicide was a teen fan who was homeless and mentally ill and idolized him, he convinced them to spend all the money they had just to be with him. the girl who was his ex gf was 19 and said she felt like she couldn't say anything to her mom who was dying of cancer at the time, and would only make things worse if she found out her daughter had been raped by her own boyfriend. in both cases he was a grown ass man in his mid-late 20's who literally laughed about all the pain he inflicted with no remorse.
also like a typical calculated predator he never exposed that side of himself to his social circle, it's like he could tell who he could get away with abusing and who not to fuck with. he wasn't a creep to all his female friends and was friends with a lot of female musicians, which is maybe why they were duped into buying that his first allegation was a lie. even I thought he was just this like andy kaufman-esque harmless funny dude from how he presented in person. it's a terrible feeling to be proven wrong about someone and feel like you were on the wrong "side" unintentionally, i don't envy anyone who was close to him.
it's been almost exactly a year and i haven't heard any news about him or any of the other
abusive band dudes who got exposed, all I can think of off the top of my head is johnny love's
victims are suing him, and one of the Burger Records owners tried and failed to rebrand and relaunch at the exact same location under a new name. most everyone else like Avi and Billy Joel Armstrong's kid and Davida Loca got to just deactivate their socials, run and hide, and escape the blame without any major repercussions. it's just so fucked and it feels like it was all performative now that no one really cares anymore.

She's a daughter of Angie Adams from quite forgotten British female punk band from the 90's, Fluffy. they have cosmetic brand together.

These bands were mostly a flop comercially. i mean they all disappeared long ago, nobody buys their cds for years, they're all second hand on ebay etc. I was pretty sure these girls are forced to do basic men work now. i guess Angie got more business savy…

This was def back in like 2016 or 2017 but some dude in that whole diy music scene named Doug something was a good friends of theirs, he was accused of rape or abuse, and then he went missing and i think killed himself and they both were publicly mourning it, posting about it and defending him when it was (i think) common knowledge that he had been a creep. if anyone knows more about it feel free to add, i almost feel like i just imagined all of that happening at this point but i know i didn't because I remember that a mutual of mine was posting IG stories mourning the same dude around that time.
>>1289557yeah it's a shame that he gets grouped in with genuine actual scummy sex pests (some of whom I can confirm on a personal level deserved to be cancalled) for like…. getting drunk at a party ten years ago and filming his dumbass friend whip his dick out in front of minors that weren't supposed to be there??? like that's it? I'm never one to defend band dudes but he genuinely didn't do shit lol. to this day i've seen H3H3 fans and Garden fans reeeing in comment sections about how

I loved him in steel train and fun. but when he started bleachers/started producing these big names I really do think there has to be something up. I’m pretty sure there were a bunch of rumours during Lorde’s melodrama days that since she was staying over at his apartment/studio, he cheated on Lena Dunham (loll) with her. I just think his trajectory from indie darling to in-demand pop producer definitely means there has to be some stories about him esp since he’s not gay

I remember the Lorde rumors too. There was a whole lot of unfriending between Dunham and Lorde's social media accounts back then, and it's probably a reason why Lorde pushes the "just a private unfamous kiwi" image now.

I'm curious if you heard of this band. This is Olivia Osby of Lowertown, her insta is wormsheriff. wonder if they're trust fund babies too, allowed to just tour the states as a hobby. overall they appear to be pretty tame and normal but gotta say Olivia is definitely a social media addict. she posts everyday, and each post is like 10 selfies from same angle. sometimes asked "how am i looking? i know i'm so ugly" and waited til ppl tell her she's pretty, seeking validation daily etc. they're from Atlanta/NY and Sabrina follows so i wonder if they're well linked. this band puzzles me, i thought it's quite niche/underexposed compared to Pale Waves and or other bands alike, i stumbled upon it by pure accident. and yet she has 248k followers? how?

Hollywood took her in and embraced immediately cause she's that type of "exotic" that they love, egirl take on white trash, very derivative and cosplay. she's a bit too old to play this tiktok star for zoomers but they probably swallow it up, since she identifies as "queer as fuck nonbinary".

I feel like Phoebe Bridgers might be biggest and most promising cow of this thread, one to watch for future dramas/tantrums. she lies about her past and manipulates all dirt she has on her exes accordingly so that it drops at the right time and get her more attention. she creates this image of super-relatable girl next-door but at the same time so hot egirl and "so true emo goth girl 2edgy4you" and will throw childish twitter tantrums if someone calls her cringe. i wish she had some old tumblr or something, it could have potential lulzy stuff. she once lowkey went viral on some photo on reddit before her fame, which she boasted about later

>>1299054Ezra was really nice in his Columbia days. Funny guy, very charming, not much of a player. Had a steady girlfriend for awhile (maybe 2005-2006 but I don’t remember how long they were together I didn’t know him like freshman/ sophomore year) Graduated 2006 (lol I think their first ever show was the Engineering school’s battle of the bands while he was a senior, they did a lot of gigs around campus and for Greek life at first- Saint As I know lol I was there, maybe Nachems and Sachems too but I don’t remember) got the teaching job, did more and bigger gigs on the weekend, traveled more, became a bigger NYC personality. He started being a bit of a dick especially to women around 2007.
They were just getting so much attention buzz and press. Totally organically at first, A-Punk practically went viral on its own (lol MySpace days) and they got a New York Times piece summer of 2007 that plugged their EP (huge deal on campus) while they were on their first national tour (they went from occasional gigs 2006 in NYC Williamsburg and colleges to like constant touring then promo 2007) all with no manager at the time but then they got good people fast, iirc their PR person around that time (Sonya — not their PR anymore) handles like all communications for beggars group which is 4AD/ matador/ XL/ rough trade. I remember there were girls going to dirty projectors shows just to see vampire weekend. They had a ton of major label offers that summer, Richard Russell adored them and they went with XL hence the good PR. Also all but two of the songs from the debut were already recorded and on their MySpace, so it was canned and ready to go basically. Richard was like well let’s strike while the iron is hot and just roll with this inertia, record the two demos proper, and slate a January debut release. Iirc two labels offered more money but they trusted Russell because he lets artists do what they want and he had the contacts (set them up with all their video directors like Garth Jennings who did a punk, cape cod, Oxford coma, cousins, really put them on the map and got crazy MTV and VH1 air. I’m good friends with Alexis who directed their video for Mansard Roof, he was just a guy around town at the time. Stayed close with ezra for awhile cause VW played their wedding but they don’t keep in touch anymore. The band got trashed at that reception lmao.) They only owned XL three records though and moved to Columbia because 1. More money 2. Their new contract has soft time constraints ie expect the 4-6 years for new VW records to continue lol.
Just an aside but I know when they were thinking about renewal and sending early demos Russell was not a fan of the ~jam band~ direction and didn’t think it was a great move, I think he was right but jokes on him I guess cause Ezra gave Columbia a Grammy lol. So back to their debut— I don’t know if anyone remembers this but Mansard Roof actually premiered on Letterman early 2008, I think it was their first TV gig. Huge couple of months for them, XL just sold that debut record so hard, they started getting so many late night slots then an SNL gig. Fan girl era.
Anyway so yeah 2007 Ezra just got way more into himself, stopped seeing the girl he was right before tour. Slept around A LOT later half of 2007. Young girls too, wild none of it ever came out also he was only 23 so not a big deal but lmao. Got really into his dry witty preppy guy Twitter persona. Became sort of a social climber and got a big who. Rostam pretty much left because after Modern Vampires Ezra 1. Got obscenely into the greatful dead lmao 2. made it clear what the next record was going to be and Rostams songs and general talent outside of production wouldn’t hold much weight. I don’t think they’re on bad terms now just reached a point where their visions weren’t compatible in a band setting.
He’s cheated on Rashida but IMO he really loves her and they have some sort of understanding or arrangement going on. I will say this: his crew love him. He’s good to the people on his payroll and most guys in general who were hanging around in Silverlake/ LA 2017-2018 during Father of the Bride sessions have nothing but good things to say about him. I think he treats service people well, good tipper. Always been friendly to me but we’re not like close or anything lol.
So I don’t think he’s an severe asshole, just a bit flighty, stubborn, “male manipulator” type in relationships, intentionally obtuse, and a dork at heart who got famous young and let it go to his head. Chris Tomson though is a total sweetheart. I find Baio annoying and lame lol but he’s also a nice guy.

Lydia of Regrettes feels like a regular self-obsessed LA party girl/influencer who doesn't even care much for punk music, but she panders to that niche strategically cause all female band sells well as "riot grrrl" revival. she went to school with/hangs out with Olivia Rodrigo all the time, in another timeline she would probably be a Disney starlet.

Anons what do you think of Veruca Salt? i always felt they're pretty average, or OK but nothing special, a band that couldn't decide if they want to play grunge, melodic punk or "metallic" goth (pic related, i like the video but it's very obviously Marilyn Manson influenced). "Seether" song was just stupid and irritating. They disappeared somewhere in the 90's, I wonder if they were milky especially the second brunette singer who had some ex drama with Dave Grohl i think.
They're still better than Garbage and Shirley Manson though. They have Butch Vig, a real producer on board and yet can't write good songs. at least not anymore.
No. 1337061
>>1336935Veruca Salt always struck me as "also rans". Don't know how they got picked up, they were never interesting enough to gain traction and never ever have I met anyone whose favorite band was VS. You put them on a girl band mix tape to flesh it out, that's about it. Genuinely surprised to read their formation story on Wikipedia because I definitely pegged them as having been an industry band that was created in an attempt to capitalize on riot grrl (to which they are forever, inexplicably, tangentially linked)

No. 1337063
>>1336935Oldfag here, fan of Veruca Salt in the 90s, and yeah, they were full of drama. It's why the song Seether exists, supposedly it's about Louise and her temper.
And they were never really able to pin down a style because Nina and Louise clashed with their songwriting styles. Nina is way more pop (she wrote both of the big singles, Seether and Volcano Girls) and Louise's songs are darker and heavier.
In my opinion, only their first album is truly great and successful in balancing their differing styles, even if it's kinda unfinished because they were rushed to get an album out after Seether was a hit single. Their second album is okay, but I preferred the unpolished sound of the first one more. It fits their immature lyrics better.
Also, personal storytime: I saw them play live in the 90s when somebody threw a t-shirt at the stage that landed on Louise and she had a full-on shit fit, stopped the song, screamed at the guy for like 10 minutes, and demanded that security throw him out or she wouldn't keep playing. Never seen anything like that before or after, and I've been to a lot of rowdy shows.

Like they reunited in 2012 and even had a new record in 2015, but who really knows or cares? i'm just reading their wikipedia now
>>1337063Hahaha that's so lame! Stopping show and having a screaming fit for minutes, reminds me of Melanie Martinez antics. Actually that makes me want to dig deeper for some old info, maybe there's more ancient milk on Louise.
I can only add that Dave Grohl dated Louise Post and they have some unreleased duo and i think Everlong was written about her.

Louise also announced onstage in 1997 that Dave Grohl cheated on her with Winona Ryder. and sang about it in a song.
Nina left the band in 00's and Louise reportedly made a whole album with angry songs about her and when they reunited, they made a whole album about their past infighting. lol

Phoebe Bridgers is being sued for defamation…
No. 1337456
>>1337421Well, finally some Phoebe drama. I completely missed these allegations, should we ask maybe: who hasn't been accused of something by Phoebe Bridgers? i lost track on all the men she accused of something. not to say it would be surprising cause well, such things are nothing uncommon in music industry, but i have a feeling Phoebe's been calling people out left and right as it suits her righteous "brave" social warrior persona… interesting how this plays out. 3 million is a lot. How do you think she makes?

Samefag but something got to me, the timeline of that Phoebe threesome was 2018. Wasn't Phoebe with Connor Oberst in 2018 or earlier?

>>1337883Yeah but i didn't know about that, thought she just said bi but only dated guys. Apparently after that guy she had another threesome with that Emily and Conor.
This case is weird though, allegedly Emily accused that guy of murdering some Mexican guy something… so she knows this and reports to IG and not police? whatever.
Honestly, i think they're all shady LA people who all either did some shady things for fame or used others who were starved for fame. the guy obviously used the situation as Phoebe likes to date people she works with while these women knew what they were doing too. they'll prob settle as you said.
No. 1338247
>>1337999Was reading more about it and apparently Phoebe did not say this independently, she reposted stories from Emily. I'm curious if that changes things legally. Obviously i'm not a lawyer but i'm also curious if Phoebe could say she was mislead by Emily? This guy also sued Emily at the end of last year, not sure if anything's happened with that

No. 1338278
>>1338247I believe her in Ryan Adams and MM case, they had bad reputation and people whispered about such possibilites of abuse for years, and a lot of women came out against them. Idk who else she came out against. could've sworn there was at least one more guy but maybe i'm wrong.
I read Phoebe actually talked Emily into posting that on IG in the first place. they know each other since school years or something. idk if there were any abuse allegations against that guy before. Ryan won't sue back cause he's guilty. Nelson would have to show probably that since IG stories his finances dropped significantly or something. how would Nelson prove that things Phoebe & Emily said were lies? (the murder accusation could be proven or disproven if the identity of the allegedly killed was given.) who knows what is true, nobody was there and so it's impossible to take sides imo. it's just interesting how this plays out.

Angel Olsen and Japanese Breakfast both came from pretty humble beginnings and without any existing connections in the industry. Julien Baker doesn't seem to have any existing connections before releasing her debut, and whilst she was definitely something of a media darling in 2015/16 that was off the back of a genuinely good debut.

Anyone remembers ancient Inger Lorre of The Nymphs? it was absolutely shitty glam cross "early grunge" band, but in fact they remind me of those worst hair metal glam bands because of their shitty visuals. She's really most known for pissing at the desk of Geffen Records A&R guy. the reason why she did it was apparently she was done with Geffen telling her to fire her scrotes and go solo. she refused to do this, but there was no gift for such loyalty cause scrotes fired her instead a year later.
Another thing she's known of was beefing with Courtney Love. The voice message that's on Courtney's track "Sassy" is her: "You're so stupid I would have done anything for you honey, your reputation is shit in this town".
She had some solo record with Jeff Buckley as guest, but i can't believe anybody bought it. it allegedly had a song about Courtney Love and one called "Gibby Haynes is next", GH sings in Butthole Surfers, so random.
As for now seems nobody's interested in her, she has a Twitter where she's followed by 280 ppl and where she mostly begged to donate to her Gofundme, for a Nymphs world tour (she raised 1421$ before closing).

Theoretically for her to get shilled in the industry her father would have to be friends with whoever helped her with career or a seriously famous/respected musician in her country, but i don't think it's the case here. I only said that if anything, if her father was rich she could've used his money to push start career (but only if). Probably should've clarified it's just my own what ifs and say it better instead "rich at the very least", that doesn't even have to mean much.

>>1344516https://www.gigwise.com/features/3402840/amyl-the-sniffers-ready-for-round-two>In November 2020, UK-based feminist punk band Dream Wife took to Instagram to post comparisons between their music video for ‘So When You Gonna…’ and Miley Cyrus’ music video for her track ‘Prisoner’ feat. Dua Lipa. It was clear how similar the visuals were, with Amy leaving a comment on the post saying “Omg lowkey highkey somebody stop miley”. >“I wanna preface this by saying I think she has ripped us off. She has a whole kinda thing like ‘what’s trendy? What’s going on?’ but also I acknowledge that I am hugely influenced by ‘70s rock females which Miley is kind of stating that she’s influenced by. So there’s definitely been a crossover, but I also believe that it would in some way loop back to us and Dream Wife and lots of other female fronted bands in the scene” she explains. “I actually think Miley Cyrus’ music is dope and I want to support women. I’m not the police, but it’s frustrating because we all work so hard and don’t make that much money, and people will assume we’re copying that era of Miley Cyrus but we’re just doing our thing that we’ve always done.”>Amy reflects on this further: “Obviously it’s a team of people, her career is based on staying relevant and being on the edgy side of pop and doing the rebellious thing. She’s a performer and is acting like an edgy rock chick. But it’s like, you ain’t shit, you have a mansion. Be yourself. It would actually be really beneficial if stylistically or personally it was a copy of Dream Wife/me, it would mean so much if she actually shared it like ‘hey, there’s a bunch of bands I really like that I’ve been really influenced by’. But then I kind of remind myself, like, there’s a huge chance you have nothing to do with this and you’re making an arsehole of yourself. If I’m honest, it just makes me laugh to pick a fight with her” she laughs.I kinda get her point, but I'm glad she's not seriously mad. I think she's too chill for this shit.

Dani is much bigger cow than it seems on the surface level, especially after taking a look at her tiktok. she's a 27yo sitting and making dozens of tiktoks all day and still milking her Gucci exposure, i mean it's getting harder for her to hide how she's in it for fame and money and LA circle parties primarily.

I was in a few classes at nyu with Emily Bannon. This would have been around 2013-2014 or so. It's crazy to see her name appear again but in this context
We were never close but she was part of the same general group of friends. She was always a bit scuzzy and unwashed, she definitely did a fair amount of drugs (poppers, coke, weed, whatever), it was common in the scene so nothing stands out there.
I remember she wasn't a very good student and would be basically clueless when the teacher asked her questions about readings/assignments
Also Maggie Rogers was also in the scene around this time. I remember being at a party once and she took out a banjo lol, half of the group was fawning and half thought it was awkward as fuck.
Most of Maggie's earlier music videos are cast with girls from the group (yes I see you)

More, one of her first IG posts is Rolling Stone announcing her single.
Last but not the least, she got "famous" for trolling the internet that she got a huge face tattoo of Harry Styles, only to reveal it was a joke (wow). from the article:

I noticed nepotism kids always pursue playing in rock bands or modelling or acting but never for example writing books.

(well not Jethro now cause he kinda disappeared). As for Earl apparently he has/had a band too, wrote and sang with other actors for a film, and said he might get more into music as well one day, but i haven't listened.
It may sound weird and stupid but i think famous kids uneccessarily lock themselves in a corner when they want to make music, cause whatever they do it nearly always ends up underwhelming and way less "edgy", idk, satisfying than their parents music. sometimes they're saved from it if they're wise to choose completely different genre and shut up about their family

Arthur was a twin of Earl and died at the age of 15, he fell after doing LSD with a friend. i've seen One More Time With Feeling documentary, it's pretty much about recording an album (Skeleton Tree) after all what happened and it was very touching.
>>1348030Yeah like anon said, he was goth in Birthday Party, 80's goth/punk and after that, he played different music, very noisy in the beginning but also with piano and strings etc. Hmm if that makes sense, he was more "gothic americana" (or rather "gothic australiana" lol) with his interests in shitty scary towns with weird townies, very biblical (his book And The Ass Saw The Angel) or songs about prisoners sentenced to death (The Mercy Seat) or carnival (The Carny) and the whole murder ballads album. He's just more of a storyteller/writer in his songs and if his music is "gothic", then it means it's dark and eerie rather than Dementia Ebony Darkn'ness way. i somehow can't imagine him naming his kids Jacob Danger or North West etc.

She's lumpy and not really a beauty but if she posed normally she'd be fine. I think LA people exaggerate into the other side too, treating her like a hero for not shaving armpits – it's about as "revolutionary" as Madonna posting arm hair on instagram. Plenty of women don't either cause they can't be bothered atm or don't care. it should be a normal human thing.
I think i know why Dani's so popular: she identifies and looks nonbinary, which is how she earned zoomer love. she's popular on tiktok. hollywood washed outs love her "exotic poverty" and Gucci weirdness. she's undisputably way more punk than Arrow even in sound, Arrow plays dad rock template rock'n'roll almost bordering on country with minimal dose of distortion. of course she's contrived but 1) got lucky with Gucci offers 2) she's oldest of all but knows how to play zoomer game

>>1351755Yeah everything is derivative, I don't even know what new bands should do to be original. Most of nowadays bands are directly milking nostalgia, some in a pathetic way (Starcrawler), some abysmal (Machine Gun Kelly, Yungblood, Willow Smith etc.), moderately (Sab) or actually nice (Soccer Mommy, Amyl & The Sniffers).

Kinda depressing to think that one day these girls, or soundclouters-turned-pop-punkers will be set as example of "originality". I mean, I've already seen some zoomers saying that, quoting: "I'm sure soon there will be an influx of new bands spitting blood and copying Arrow trying to pass it off as their original idea!"

LA people might not give a fuck about models but that doesn't change the fact industry currently pushes rich ex-models rather than girls who are talented musicians.

Ok last screen (sorry had to repost, hope its ok now). People are saying they've been ignoring it initially.
Well… the dirt surfaced sooner than i expected. I thought Scruffpuppy would be their main "darling" (especially since he was kind of known on youtube for doing covers) but guess now they'll just push Sloppy Jane and Claud instead. probably sign more questionable, shady people, as long as their look is queer/genderfluid/zoomer pandering enough.
Crazy that that guy was presented as cute innocent puppy-faced "they/them", having Phoebe funding billboards, future TV gigs or articles about how brave he is for quitting drugs or something, but he's something else behind the scenes.

>>1390268Idk, i don't think it's included in the screens i posted. Maybe the racist shit was among other things that he was sending to the girl & her friends through onlyfans. i think Casper showed more proofs to Phoebe and that's how they dropped Scruff guy.
Anyone else finds it cringeworthy that this guy looks, dresses and most of all behaves like a scrote but uses she/her pronouns… i thought i was misunderstanding these tweets but "she" was relating to him. yikes
No. 1390339
>>1390273Some of the worst people specifically pretend to be they/thems or she/hers for precisely this reason, to muddy the water when people are trying to discuss them. A scrote subbing all his roommates and friends' onlyfans under a fake name is considerably worse than a woman doing it precisely because you know he was jackin' it and it was all for power and sexual gratification, if it was a woman it would be still very creepy but the assumptions as to why/what they were doing will be quite different.

other than that, he's just gross. he used to whip out his dick on stage, shove microphones up his ass or "floss" his ass with a cable because otherwise he was "too bored" to perform. he bragged about all of this and what a fucked up druggie mess he was in the daughters "redemption" reunion interviews.

Old milk, but maybe some Brazilian anons can share some info? Cansei de ser Sexy aka CSS used to have a member named Adriano who basically grew the band from the ground, sonically. (Aside: their music now isn't good compared to when he was in the band.) During 2011, the band and him had beef because allegedly he got too sick to play during tours and asked to be able to return to Brazil and rest. The rest of the band refused and he asked them to not play his songs during the tours, which is all of them really, and they refused. He then wrote a long blogpost detailing what happened in 2011:
https://adrianocintra.medium.com/how-this-cookie-crumbled-aka-my-departure-from-css-8e8fcf958a10Is this guy a cow? Is the whole band a cow? I would love to get some detailed milk from Brazilanons since I don't know Portuguese.

Everything's clear. Holly Humbersomething is an Interscope shill. Touring with Olivia Rodrigo. Bye Billie Eilish girls, welcome industry-produced Olivias and Phoebe Bridgers offshoots.
No. 1438747
>>1438241I think you're misunderstanding me, but maybe what i wrote was unclear. I KNOW Billie's a nepo kid of parents who were well known in the industry, i know everything about Billie's fake behind the scenes thing. What i meant by "bye Billie Eilish girls" is that they won't produce post-Eilish, soundclout hiphop/pop girls, i meant they're directly copying indie/rock artists and selling this as new pop. and i said it ironically, not that i'm happy about it. I honestly thought Interscope's Billie Eilish 2.0 would be like her, pop artist singing to soundclout tracks, but i was wrong -Billie 2.0 (Olivia Rodrigo) is already based on pop punk ripoffs. and the next plants (Holly, that ABCDEU girl, i forgot her name, etc.) are a mix of pop punk and indie. i'm sure next to Willow Smith and MGK/Travis crowd there will be (if there isn't already) next trend, industry plant Phoebe Bridgers. i mean, Phoebe's road to fame is fake as fuck but she had some "indie" history and got there by fucking producers. Phoebe Bridgers 2.0 girl will start writing and posting "her" music fresh out of Interscope's office.
Btw i don't want to make it a mainstream Willow Smith/MGK kinda pop punk discussion here because it's not the right thread, but imo pop punk resurgence is the worst thing that could happen to rock in a way, because now indie industry plants will be more normalized than ever. All these girls like Arrow, Sabrina, Pale Waves and Lydia Night are lowkey very slowly becoming obsolete by now, by the way it seems like their audience is mostly nostalgic Gen X, sometimes select millenials with bad taste. Zoomers have their new "punk" industry plant alternatives freshly provided by Interscope.
If 2010-2019 years were depraved of any new rock stars (with a few exceptions of cringelords like Dani, Arrow and less of a cringelord Amy, Snail Mail etc. who got "famous" bc of their connections and unusual push from hipster indie labels), now we'll have Interscope producing McDonald rockstars. they're already coming and going, being easily replaceable.
Weird situation IMO, and i somewhat hope this trend will be over fast. sage for industry predictions sperg.

Look at this interview in which she tries so hard to convince us she HAD TO deal with cheap guitars, sometimes with no full set of strings! "I had guitars laying around" sure she did, if she had rich industry parents. And then what? You just found Danelectro on the kitchen floor? Danelectro are nowhere near cheap guitars, least is 300$ and max price i've seen was 900$. Correction: actually 2400$. So general price is 500-700$ depending on the model and year. Certainly not "pretty cheap" nor "not-the-best-guitars".
Fucking learn what is and what is not cheap if you're gonna brag about it, Demi. cause actual poor people, or even average wage people cannot easily afford Danelectros, and they certainly don't find them lying around at home. I have one that costed between 200$-300$ and i had to save up money for more than a year.

So how did you meet Dan Auerbach?
"Aaah we just sat on the sofa and randomly got a phone call, totally didn't expect this!"
Kek this chick is just like Arrow, if she bothered to learn to play any instrument. They both convey absolutely nothing when they speak, both have self-praising attitude and both ride nepotism. Arrow even used the same words, like "we were just sitting at school when we suddenly got an e-mail from Elton's assistant saying he wants this and that, and then Ryan Adams called us, me and my mom like totally didn't expect it!" Lol this is so transparent. No way they'd have Dan writing their album for them or they'd go touring with Guns N' Roses without having rich parents. All that and they only have 9700 followers.

I sang "Aneurysm", with its chorus "Beat me out of me", bringing in all my own rage and hurt from the last few years – a four-minute-long explosion of grief, where I could finally let myself feel the furious sadness of Kurt's death and everything else surrounding it . . .

I was a part of the midwest emo/screamo/indie punk scene (which I'll refer to as emo from here onwards) and there are a ridiculous amount of self-important hypocritical trannies/nbs that I wanted to document.
Abuse allegations and 'cancellations' have always a large part of the emo scene, becoming more prominent as of the late 2010s. Bands such as Brand New, Nouns, JANK, Sorority Noise, Tiny Moving Parts and Moose Blood have all had rape allegations levied against them, and most of these bands have gone silent in response, due to push back from the community.
Some within the scene saw pruning other forms of abuse to be necessary. The frontman of Pinegrove was called out for being accused of sexual coercion. The guitarist of Turnover was singled out for being emotionally
abusive. The frontman of Mom Jeans. was accused of being a jerk in high school, etc.
No matter what your opinion is on whether or not this was necessary is irrelevant; emos were quick to elevate the voices of the accusers. Except for the Mom Jeans. allegation, people seemed to realize that was a little questionable. In any case, the consensus was that
victims never lie, and should be supported no matter what.
Which brings us to 2019. The tour guitarist (as in not a permanent band member or anyone who had played on any recordings) of the band SeeYouSpaceCowboy (SYSC) was accused of rape. The band itself was already unpopular within the scene due to the arrogant attitudes of other band members, so emos were quick to air out any dirty laundry they had.
One individual was Megan Cadena-Fernandez, the vocalist of the band foxtails. Unfortunately I can't dig up the comment she made but she explained that the vocalist (Connie) of SYSC had antagonized foxtails when the producer of one of their early albums had been outed as a rapist. Connie had demanded that foxtails have this album rerecorded or scrapped entirely but this was unrealistic as the band members were teenagers without the funds to do so. Megan's comment also called out SYSC for being an all white (or at least white-passing) band which was only "queer" (Connie is MtF) when it was beneficial to them. Megan's comment went into detail about the trauma the affair caused her-a disabled, queer, femme, person of color (her words, as I remember them).
This caused a shitstorm in the community due to SYSC being a band composed of long-standing emos who appeared to be now minimizing the allegations after removing the guitarist from the band and trolling on a well known facebook group. SYSC' most recent compilation album had also been featured on Fantano earlier that year, so a lot of people felt as though the (small) fame had gotten to their heads. What had happened to believing all
victims and keeping the scene a safe space free from abusers?
Fast forward to 2021, the guitarist Jon Benham of Foxtails has been accused of sexual assault. The allegations are addressed by the band in an instagram and google doc:
https://www.instagram.com/p/CR1pE9pJrYT/ - It's extremely long winded but the short version is according to the band, the allegations are bullshit, retraumatizing, and they also point out how the accuser misgenders Jon and misrepresents him as a creep who should not be around women when he is actually a nonbinary transfeminine woman!!! (pic related, second from left) The document also pulls apart the allegations for any inconsistencies even though
victims never lie, unless they're lying about other
victims.
That accusation seems to have not left any impact on the bands reputation as they shortly announce that they will be touring North America with Touche Amore, Vein.fm and Dogleg, the former two being very well known bands in the scene. This is huge for foxtails and seems as though it'll be their big break, especially with their new album release being around the corner.
Then Dogleg's lead singer is called out for being an emotionally
abusive serial cheater and goes on hiatus to address internal issues. Then rape allegations are levied against Megan from foxtails which is also addressed in an Instagram post + accompanying google doc.
https://www.instagram.com/p/CXrBCkVjzzS/ TL;DR of the response is similar to that of Jon's, Megan is a
victim with C-PTSD, and abuse
victims don't abuse others so it's DEFINITELY false. She also posts receipts to corroborate that the
victim and her were on good terms as if the cycle of abuse isn't something that she shouldn't be aware of. Megan also advocates for the accused to be given second chances rather than being ostracized and exiled immediately. Suspicious how this wasn't apart of the narrative a few years ago when their band and their friends weren't the ones being kicked off of a major US tour…
A hardcore band that is apart of the emo scene, SOUL GLO (note Megan's shirt in pic related) has a rape (by deception due to cheating) accusation made against their guitarist Ruben. Ruben denies the allegation but admits that he cheated in a (now deleted) Instagram post and Twitter post
https://twitter.com/soulglophl/status/1486360277859897348/photo/1 with replies disabled. Foxtails and other adjacent bands (who only believe
victims when convenient) like the posts showing their support. Eventually Ruben leaves the band to focus on himself. This is apparently because they were known for being a serial cheater and had done this to a few others but [citation needed]. Fun fact about Ruben, they used to play in the band Jank which you may recognize from the second paragraph of this post as being one of the bands who had a serious rape allegation levied against them. They are the "former band member" mentioned in this reddit thread:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Emo/comments/6xtoq0/the_truth_about_lou_diamond_why_you_should_not/ but the long of short is the frontman of Jank raped an extremely drunk 15 year old when he was 21. Ruben left the band before the news came out and was considered one of the /good guys/ because he outed the frontman when asked about it. The bar is extremely high for this scene, if it wasn't clear…
Last month, the frontman for the band Jail Socks was accused of sexual coercion and emotional abuse by a few former partners. The frontman apologized and the band is currently on indefinite hiatus but words of support from the same bands that used to believe all
victims until their bands were accused are plastered over their statement which glosses over the accusations and blames their actions on autism.
https://twitter.com/jailsocks/status/1496269732596621321I'd be overjoyed if at least one person, even if they don't know any of the bands I mention reads even half of this and is mildly entertained by my long ass post. The hypocrisy displayed by these bands is not surprising at all but it's still so frustrating to see the lack of accountability any of these bands have, and the lack of anyone with a functioning brain critiquing them.

>>1457675Glad that someone is already aware of SYSC and how annoying everyone in that band is. Their first two releases weren't bad (just derivative) but they were over-exposed (within the scene) for having a loud frontman/token tranny. I actually thought Megan's take on Connie was
almost based because it essentially pointed out how that band is filled with white dudes. OFC it was negated/followed by her complaining about lack of brown/queer representation because she's a they/them who thinks she's breaking some gender norms. I'm glad that Fantano reviewed their newest album because of Megan's milk potential. She even was on hate5six wearing a choker with a pacifier and overalls with "BABY" stitched onto them…
https://youtu.be/gkW1fuNsm3kI was also reminded that Megan went psycho on someone who had been calling her and Jon out for being abusers. I can barely stand the scene anymore due to how insufferable everyone with a platform is but I do love the milk…

I learned from his ex gf at the time he was in a relationship with her during that period and he actually almost broke her neck and spent months posting fake ads to Backpage with her number on it.

>>1469360Her death has been discussed at length in her last thread, it was on the top of snow for a while but the post count has run up and dropped. I found it very shocking tbh, thought she'd make it at least one more year before she dies. ngl looking back i feel her threads turned from milky to horrifying content-wise and one of those with the most cruel opinions even for LC standards, like ppl wishing her the death adn so on. Also nitpicking anything possible, people literally bitched at her for having ED and starving herself, but when she started eating snacks during a live they called her a pig shovelling food etc. like wtf.
She ofc did a lot of bad and questionable stuff, which i don't try to whiteknight, but in the hindsight i see some seen her as some sort of villain, not an addict. Perhaps she was unable to get on the right path without, idk, psych. hospital stay and rehab. She must've had some personality disorder not just depression and addiction. She fucked over a lot of people, but ""friends"" she surrounded herself with weren't fucking better than her at all, all awful clout whores who stuck around for shoutouts but didn't care enough to fucking help her when she was dying in front of them (motherfuckers that she was with left her alone in the park to die and didn't call ambulance to help her).
These threads stopped being funny in like thread 2 or 3, it was genuinely painful to watch her turn into an empty shell, especially as an addict myself. Sorry, i haven't said anything on her death before, i'll shut up now. Music-wise speaking, i always thought she's a typicl soundclout rapper but turned out she had a lot of nice guitar-driven songs. i kinda wish she never stuck with soundclout scene, perhaps if she tried to go into that alt indie rock scene.
Picrel is how she looked 5 years ago.

>>1469448Lol i also wish there were receipts, i'd like to see that! Perhaps she had some tumblr blog so we could dig it up? As for being nepo baby, she even wrote it in her bio. Besides instagram/music career, she started a cosmetic company with her mother. Interesting how ex-rockstars go into makeup business, Theo Cogan of Lunachicks did it too.
She's got a huge followng because of her ugly look, they know what they're doing her and her mother. they probably planned every detail. Imo Jazmin wouldn't get anywhere without that makeup and clothes and nonbinary fairy goblin being LARP. Angie's links wouldn't get her far if Jazmin wore American Apparel or looked like another Demi Demitro lol

She changed the behaviour accordingly to situation, once loving her and once calling her out on whatever shit. Looks like she just used Melanie to get clout right at the point she started posting music. unsurprising, she's aiming for that audience but she totally failed, Melanie stans hate her now
(As for that Timothy incident, ironically it seems it turned out that Timothy chick lied for clout afterall. apparently she drunk posted on insta and admitted to lying. she made 1 record, got LOTS of attention/exposure and lingere porny modelling contracts just on the rape story alone, before totally degrading herself and disappearing in recent years. last time i've seen her on the net she was allegedly only active on Onlyfans.

And idk, Melanie is lowkey creepy-unsettling to me. Like, her pacifier-sucking, diaper-wearing adult baby bullshit isn't just her way to get clout. She looks like she's really into that kind of shit. I mean, looking at her IG feed, she's transitioning to some hoodoo voodoo spiritual creature realm (and getting fatter and fatter as well), but she still. she had her entire house made into this candy land with baby toys and stuff, which in itself i kinda dig just like dolls or old toys on their own, but when Melanie sits in that pile of toys and paintings of children, she gives same vibes as Nicole Dollanganger, makes everything around her look yucky and pervy, idk
Funny how she pretends she's totally not into DDLG now, just like her incest loving friend Yungelita. the implied DDLG and toys/alt tumblr style was what kept them famous for a while

Changing subject. Opinions on L7? Imo they had a couple of good songs, but overall i really couldn't get into them fully. They had something really NLOG about them, trying to be as masculine as they could in their look and sound as well. flapping their hair like heavy metal guys etc. their music also sometimes bordered on some really bad heavy metal/hard rock parody, even if they intentionally parodied some of them i guess (that song about Guns n'Roses and GNR cover). I mean, some of their songs really slap, probably fun to see live and they're objectively better than any of the cows here that try to emulate them, but still wonder if they had any drama. besides the infamous "Donita yeeting her tampon at the crowd" thing lol

That being said yes you're right, they were still very feminine, and nobody said there's anything wrong with that look & butch etc. Not trying to make them walk in slippers and candy colored dresses. as for 2 hours of makeup a day, i guess that's what Donita is doing these days anyway judging by that karaoke video lol

Any milk on Tyler from YAAMC? He once tweeted about his insecurity about his gender
https://twitter.com/urarmsrmycocoon/status/1360429118190465032?s=20&t=ou-vqHgOPZxUrPHcvvTbUg in response to Caleb from Hey, Ily (who also gives me weird predatory vibes), I've heard things about how Tyler's hated in the Chicago scene because of how bad of a roommate he is which is how he lost the full live band he had at one point (allegedly he's said that he doesn't know how to do dishes) he dropped out of a really hard to get into music school if you're from outside of Illinois and apparently has rich parents.

Gotta add Lauren Tate from Hands Off Gretel to this thread. Something about her really rubs me the wrong way and all of her work is extremely derivative. They’re trying to be a riot grrrl grunge band - her viking looking boyfriend uses a jagstang like Cobain and her lyrics contain several references to milk, like some of Hole’s. She does that thing like Courtney Love where she stops playing her guitar and holds her arms over her head to be cute or deep or something. She also blinks and rolls her eyes into the back of her head like Kat Bjelland.
Her band toured with Skating Polly once and in the interview with them all together she has such an air of superiority and acts bored. Her lyrics are all child like and whiney about how she was bullied in high school and she has told a story before about flipping off her entire school during a talent show. Her mom is a photographer and takes pretty much all of their promo shots and is listed as the filmer for some of their videos. “My mum always pushed me to take it seriously and believe in myself, getting me my first recording experience in a studio when I was 12, which was terrifying. Back then I had many singing teachers come and go but I never stuck to it, I really hated doing the competitions. Then when I turned 14, a producer called Pete contacted me to ask if I’d like to collaborate on a song writing project with him." Her mom also lists herself as the manager for both of her daughter's musical projects on her linkedin and has written several articles regarding music promotion. Nepotism?
Lauren has videos on youtube from when she used to be a P!nk skinwalker and try to sing identically to her. Sometime after dropping out of school at 15 she switched her look to try and fit the kinderwhore grunge aesthetic and now looks like killstar emilie autumn with dreads. She has another project called Delilah Bon where she “raps” - its some kind of conscious feminist hip hop schtick. It looks like she intentionally picks promo photos where her bass player looks bad, probably because she appears to be the only one with real talent in the group and everyone fawns over her in youtube comments. In one of their videos the two girls wear the same two piece bathing suit thing but it is extremely unflattering and looks too small on the bass player. Lauren often talks about activism and once had some merch that she touted as being sustainable and planet friendly or some shit yet she buys tons of fast fashion.
No. 1509837
>>1509760Bingo, anon. they're another sus band that poses as new punk/grunge phenomenon. And oh, they definitely look like they're taking largely from Hole and Nirvana and 90's grunge/riot grrrl. Iirc she posted a few Hole/Nirvana covers on YT. As for her ripping Courtney and Kat live, i didn't know about it, gotta watch some lives!
>Her mom is a photographer and takes pretty much all of their promo shots and is listed as the filmer for some of their videos/ists herself as the manager Is her mother a famous photog. or someone damned rich? Sounds like Arrow and Autumn De Wilde case. nepotism absolutely, and if mom's not famous then it's spoiled child case getting career funded by mom. mother must be rich to begin with if she just randomly buys her 14yo daughter a studio time, and sending to competitions smells like stage mom syndrome.
I listened to maybe one song 5 years ago or so, so i remember being lowkey shocked that they gathered any following, i always assumed they're just another Hole-ripoff band that posts videos on youtube but doesn't seem to go anywhere. sounds like she's a plant, maybe not in a way she's a record label product, but she had her mommy set her career up and crawling slowly to the top to get picked up by indie clout chasers. what record label are they on? Sounds interesting, i guess it's worth a deep dive

>>1509970She got the name from the Babes in Toyland song Handsome and Gretel. iirc in an interview she claims she wrote potential names on scraps of paper and her mom saw the babes song name but suggested it be hands off instead so it wasn't a complete rip off. They have a song called Always Right that reminds me of Babes in Toylands You're Right and the lyrics in Bluebell. Another song is called World Against She which of course made me think of Alien She by Bikini Kill.
That reminds me there's a band called Quinn the Brain (like the Daria episode) and the singer totally rips off Kat bjelland too. Literally the same guitar, a red rickenbaker and red dresses and hair ribbons. They have a song full of lyrics suspiciously similar to some of Kats too.

>>1509837>what record label are they on?They have their own label called Puke Pop. Obviously from a wealthy family. I can't find any other work by her mom besides the pics she takes of her daughter so maybe it was a hobby thing for the mom. Must be nice just having all that equipment for professional shoots from the get go. I don't believe that she makes enough money from her music to be pressing the amount of cds and vinyl she has for the past however many years. Who is paying for all that lol she also prints calendars and posters of herself. Her hand drawn art she sells looks like the shit I drew on deviant art when I was twelve
From a mother daughter interview: "What was so frustrating was that I know she’d got this talent and school would never support her because she shone just a little too brightly for them.

>>1510031Quinn The Brain, fuck what a weird thing to see them mentioned here. i thought they're too irrelevant for anyone to notice. i followed that girl on Tumblr for a while before she started skinwalking Kat Bjelland in a BinT ripoff band.
Quinn The Brain played as support before Skating Polly and Starcrawler in Texas in 2018. i remember how Arta liked posts from someone else's blog where someone said they hate fake rock plant bands like Starcrawler, skating polly and all the other bands like that and she liked and commented something like "well said! exactly what i'm thinking" or something like that. And then a couple months later i've seen her commenting on Starcrawler or Skating Polly accounts reposting pics from that night and her licking their asses in comments like "the best lineup! we need to repeat this guys uwu" etc. kek
a few people fawn over them bc they like babes in toyland, but she'll get nowhere if she keeps skinwalking Kat Bjelland and Courtney like that further. yawn.

So now I could be wrong BUT he looks a lot like a boyfriend my best friend had when we were in high school. Mind you we were 16 and he was 20 trying to have sex with her, she was super into the indie scene which pretty much meant she listened to the Arctic Monkeys and Ok Go.

>hats weird is this is kind of a common thing, not only with grunge/riot grrl stuffYeah, as for equivalents of other bands, maybe this generation just takes inspirations too far and gets too much acceptance when they allow themselves to copy so much, so they straight up dress as their idols and think they're "putting their personal twist on them" lol. this or maybe punk/grunge music has finally hit a wall? hardcore was a new genre in the 80's but it's old now. 90's grunge was a new thing inthe 90's too. i mean they had 70's punk as a base and some of the genres they built didn't exist before them, they were giving a spin on 70's punk and other rock music, but now it's different because what was fresh and new invention 30-40 years ago is an obvious established thing now. you can't make punk or grunge better or more harsh, or more pop either cause that's what pop punk was for. no way to go from here.

Oh boy since we're talking about Courtney wannabes we have to talk about Bruna Remorini lmaooo
i'll just paste the input about her from the personal cows thread:
">spoiled fatty
>used to skinwalk Hayley Williams
>meets this cringy Kurt Cobain skinwalker and start dating him
>because of him ditched the Hayley Williams persona and started skinwalking Courtney Love (claims its because everyone used to tell her how alike they are)
>starts a Hole cover band (she claims she had several cover bands before this, its a lie)
>would go on rants about how Courtney Love killed Kurt Cobain and how she just dress up like her because "its her job" (despite having 17 years old at the time and earning nothing from it)
>hole fans pissed at her, makes several enemies
>starts heavily editing her pictures, making her chin pointy and her nose bigger to resemble Courtney Love (it just looks weird)
>getting more fat each second
>used to post made-up shit on her band page, for example, she's also obsessed about Corey Taylor then she would make up a Corey Taylor quote like "She looks just like an angel , etc" and then add "- Corey Taylor about Courtney Love" after it
>used to claim that cigarettes and drugs are for losers and she just smoke cigarettes for pictures
>was heavily against abortion
>would freak out at girls for wearing red lipstick and having blonde hair, claimed all of them wanted to be her
>constantly humiliating her boyfriend through public facebook posts
>when she was hanging out with her boyfriend she would make a scene and freak out at him, screaming and acting drunk trying to "pull a Courtney Love", making people around very unconfortable (i saw this personally, can confirm)
>people start calling her on her bullshit, her only "fans" are edgy teenagers
>notices people are losing interest on her, deletes a lot of cringy posts and goes from "Courtney killed Kurt and i only dress up like her because its my JOOOOB" to "Courtney Love is a perfect queen and the most beautiful human in the world!!!11"
>now claims she's a smoker and been doing drugs since she was 15 because of depression
>breaks up with Kurt Cobain skinwalker
>tags Courtney Love in all of her pictures and in everything she posts, very creepy
>Courtney Love finally notices her, makes a comment on one of her singing videos and like some of her pictures out of pity
>I'M BETTER THAN EVERYONE intensifies
>runs to the first artist skinwalker she can find, this time a Slash one
>gets pregnant
>turns out the guy was cheating on her and was toxic af, dumps her while pregnant
>now claims to be pro-abortion
>believes she will be very rich and famous
>releases demo to a original song called "Cloth Doll", with awful english and still trying to skinwalk Courtney Love's voice and style
>gives birth, the kids dad is not envolved (doesn't work and has a trashy life), i assume her parents raise and buy everything for the kid since she also doesn't seems to work
>start drawing lazy traced art and selling it on t-shirts to misinformated people"

She died her hair to brown now and claims to be over Courtney Love phase though and says she likes music but not Courtney anymore… some of her pics used to be crazy similar to Courtney, just like fat era Courtney trying to impersonate her future thinner self. everything listed sounds crazy, this is unfortunate she's got a kid because she looks like she has major problems with identity and whatnot.
>i remembered the last year too, when my dad gave his last gift to me as a birthday gift - my car car The true gift was having him alive cause he believed in me. I have a driver license since 2015 but i just got my first car last year.
From her Insta last year. How fucking old is she? also i've seen her mention she got a diploma for marketing, but not sure if it's true cause she just showed congratulations on a computer screen. anyways this is her (school?) pic when she skinwalked Hayley Williams.
Idk what to say, this makes me feel sad for her in a way cause that seems like really pitiful life.

>"Everyone loves them, from Florence Welch to Hayley Williams to Iggy Pop"
>Dave Grohl, Jack White and Lorde are fans
>Elton John played their track on his show
bingo, that's enough for me to know they're plants. Dave Grohl loves to shill rich morons, perhaps because he hopes to shill his own daughter as a punk goddess in a few years (well, he lowkey already did on SNL). Elton John already helped Starcrawler by shilling their shit on his radio show.
>a "band that came out of nowhere" phrase listen in all interviews
They're plants, lifted out of some bullshit place but still plants. there's no bands that just come out of nowhere and get praises from Grohl, Iggy Pop and others.
From what i gathered, they met at Isle of Wight College where they studied music before dropping out. One of them had jeweller parents and owning their business, the other one's are "boat people", whatever that means. I know for example Katie Jane Garside had a father that was a well ranked soldier who had a yacht and the family travelled around the world, but afaik it didn't help Katie at all later, when she left the sea and went to London, she was poor as a rat and cleaned public toilets before joining Daisy Chainsaw. (perhaps she fell out with her family?) As for this chick, if her parents were rich yacht owners then i can see them helping with career and funding music studies. All in all one family had their own business, the other could afford yachts/boats. that's quite wealthy in my opinion but i'm a poorfag, so you know.
I can't tell anything else cause i have no idea how to google their parents for more info. they used to be a part of the local scene and signed to Domino Records since 2020. some indie headhunter probably just plucked them out. Elton John, Hayley and Grohl praising them is enough for me to know there's something fishy.
No. 1512280
>>1512233"boat people" can mean vietnamese who immigrated to australia in the 70s. they may have been poor but easily rose to middle class and above, so if this band member's grandparents brought her parents to australia and they raised her in england, it's a sign they had decent money.
or maybe she's just an idiot and doesn't know how to say "boat dealers"
related, there are some "rich" (middle class by that countrie's standards) people in hong kong, singapore, japan who were born poor and have a whole mental complex about hiding it from their kids so their kids don't get lazy. i was one of these, and basically you grow up fed, clothed, and going to good schools, but your parents boot you at age 18.

Probably unexpected cow proposition, but Lori Barbero looks like a cow imo. I long lost sources of this, probably tumblr, fansites etc (i'll post if i find anything). She always behaves like she OWN this band, like she's the leader and wrote all the songs. Fuck, she even interrupts others on all the 90's interview that are on youtube, and talks over them. You probably heard about their dramas in 2015. It wasnt the first time Lori had a decisive world and Kat complied. this seems like a pattern in this band.
Babes in Toyland split around 1998 and they tried to reunion, but it ended up in a shitstorm. First Maureen quit, so only Kat and Lori were left and then nothing came out of reunion. Kat formed Katastrophy Wife band then, but in 2002 she played a tour under Babes in Toyland with new musicians. Lori got pissed af and made a big outrage (gonna post article), i also heard somewhere she threatened to sue. Also remember reading somewhere Kat saying she planned to make it another name band but the manager reserved places as Babes in Toyland???? not sure about that, where i read it, if that's even true. All i'm gonna say, i get her anger but i kinda understand Kat, even if she pulled a Courtney and hired new musicians for the old band, cause she didn't make much money at the time and apparently worked 2 jobs as a waitress and catering manager. Nonetheless, Lori's outrage didn't surprise me, what surprised me is actually how much of influence she had. Usually it's the singer/songwriter who decides on everything, and it's nothing out of ordinary for singers to get a new load of musicians and tour under the old name…
BinT reunited in 2015 thanks to Maureen Herman. however, they kicked her out not a long time later and Maureen said that's because she published an open letter to Joan Jett calling her out on being passive and not doing anything when another Runaways member was raped by her manager (and Joan allegedly witnessed it, i think). Lori didn't like it, because she had a project on Joan's label and felt she need to protect her ass from "Joan's vendetta" or whatever, and told Maureen to fuck off. from what i've read somewhere, Kat didn't want Maureen to go, but Lori was pushing and she finally broke down.
And now third time. Kat is an addict and Maureen actually helped her to get clean and get back to normal life before the reunion tour started. Unfortunately, apparently she relapsed later and came high or on a come-down to the rehearsal, Lori decided reunion is not going to happen. Who the fuck are you to decide for everybody? Didn't she think Kat could come sober next time, or could fight addiction again, or she could just keep it okay enough to tour? Saying this as an addict myself. I know it can get bad enough for you to just get high at night and sleep all day, but fuck this, addicts can do normal stuff if they care enough. Look at the fucking rock scene - everyone's an addict. exaggerating, but you get my point. Cobain performed high every night, Courtney performed high every night, and she could barely keep (and play lol) her guitar too. countless musicians tour while on heroin. did someone ask other band members what are they really thinking, did someone ask Kat? Because yeah, she could be in a bad condition, but i'm noticing a weird pattern here. Kat fucks up once - Lori throws her out! Kat comes high to rehearsal even once - goodbye, this is the end, see ya in 10 years, and ofc i'm gonna talk shit on you in the press. Because that's what happened before, in 1999-2002 time when 1st reunion was speculated, again can't find source now but Lori laughed at Kat that reunions don't make sense with a junkie etc.
This actually makes me lowkey hate her, because not only Kat was an addict in the band, Maureen was on heroin too. They probably made up (she and Kat, don't think she mde up with Maureen) but still. And Lori always behaved like she's better than them, that typical "oh you're a lying junkie" sort of disgusted attitude. Which she really has no room to talk about, because she was arrested for drunk driving years ago.

>>1514308it was from maureens patreon.
this is from the book about michelle leon( the first bass player) she left the band mainly because of how lori treated her after her boyfriend was murdered.lori was really cold towards her and michelle was like very young like 21 years old experiencing her first major loss. the person that was supposed to be like a sister basically wouldnt listen to her while she was grieving. they were over seas in england at the time also.
this probably hurt kat a lot too because thats another person important to her leaving her. kat probably wasnt schizophrenic but had some kind of neurodivergent thing then did drugs to cope with child abuse and being abandoned by her mother.doing speed (being spun) for years can make people hear voices and i think she said she was schizo to the media because its more acceptable than talking about it being caused from drug abuse. kat alluded to communication with aliens in some of her lyrics (ariel, Iskigiet) and it totally reminds me of the commedian jessa reid who used to do meth talking about her alien school hallucinations. staying up for days on speed does wicked stuff to your brain

Fans are fucking idiots. OF COURSE she's nice to fans, just like she was candy sweet to interviewers. standard mistake, people think open, broadly smiling and mighty laughing people are rays of sunshine and good and CANNOT ever have ulterior bad motives whatsoever! no idea what is wrong with Lori, a mental illness of some sort or just being plain evil person that ALWAYS needs to be right. what are you doing in a music business if you hate junkies so much? wtf

I wish i had Michelle's book or at least scans. I'm pretty sure i came across a tumblr post showing passages from the book that showed up Lori's possesive, controlling and overall shitty behaviour.

Why is that bitch the one holding so much power over everyone? she only owns the name idea, and it wasn't that original anyway as it stems from another music piece. why didn't Kat and Michelle or Maureen just kick HER out instead, her drumming was shit anyway. i swear it feels like some weird cult/sect tier dependence shit

Bruise Violet by Babes is written about Courtney and the video shows girl copying Kat, a very direct dig at CL. then became friends again but having a rivalry thing on, then Kurt died and they were filmed walking together. i guess they fell out again after Celebrity Skin was released. In 2001 or so Courtney tried to start a new band Bastard with Kat and some other chicks (Pati Schemel and Louise Post + some else) but Kat wasn't interested. i heard they shared e-mails time to time later and recently Courtney claimed she tried to reach out and do something about the situation but apparently transplant can't be done.
This interview shows Kat wasn't very keen on Courtney and what she has become, but it's 2009 or 2010. i guess they weren't actively feuding post 00's but they weren't close friends either.
As for Lori, she was friends with courtney in the 90's and living with her? i've seen her name in the diaries of CL but that could be someone else.

>>1514720lol what a fucking bitch. what happened was probably she got fucked up on drugs and started spilling her shit like a jealous cunt she is. she thinks she's ugly? lol, in her diaries she wrote
>All hot girls are short. Madonna, Kat, Kim Gordon. I'm tall. Courtney's a psycho that's only made worse by drugs, and not even heroin but prescription stuff mostly oxycodone, xanax, concerta, adderall and more. in 2003 she was a coke addict. imagine her mixing that shit.
in the recent years she claimed to be a benzo addict doing huge numbers of xanax pills a day or somethign, or was it that she was "fed xanax" by her creepy abuser ex? all that bullshit story how her ex was keeping her hostage and how brave black knight Marilyn Manson came to her rescue, because poor Courtney couldn't get the fuck out on her own. after Manson drama coming out, she whiteknighted him hard replying to randoms on her secret account, but later she got outed and threw people some lame bone how "she's going to tell you all about it one day, but she's not ready blah. and her crazy fans just accepted her beating around the bush.
>>1514725is that exposingcourtneylove blog? good that they saved that horrid quote, but gotta say this blog was made by some lunatic on his own right, some of the shit they post are complete science fiction fantasy nonsense. they think that everything is an industry conspiracy, that Courtney's father is actually working with Courtney bc he's accusing her of killing Kurt intentionally as a way to promote Nirvana and Hole's music (wtf lmao). They also made a mental article about how Kat Bjelland is as fake as Courtney Love and how Babes in Toyland are industry plants who deliberatly made up fake childhood abuse stories and fake image, and how photos, graphics and even Kat Bjelland's ornate handwriting style was entirely created by the music industry cause that was a moneygrab campaign planned in each detail by industry and not a punk band on its own. it's a good source for quotes like the one you posted, but anything else from the site cannot be trusted tbh.

And she 100% cheated on Kurt with Billy Corgan. so you know all that, but POTI and Live Through This are good albums, live videos are enjoyable to watch, i have good memories attatched with Hole. so i can't entirely let go of the music. but yeah, she is awful person. perhaps not as bad as Exposingcourtneylove blog and Kurt's fans try to paint her as, but she's trash nonetheless and i'll never make excuses for her anymore.

this shit from indie bands pisses me off so much. they're always appealing to this retarded "connecting to my ancestry" "going back to my roots," bodies & spaces uwu bs when it comes to playing in israel, but then they anticipate the backlash they'll receive from (certain sections of) the left and make some superficial gesture acknowledging palestinians and leave things at "it's complicated" and "let's love beyond disagreement." so fucking embarrassing. whenever i find out any band has ever played in israel, no matter how much i like their music, i can never bring myself to listen to their stuff ever again. not that i'm a huge fan of big thief, i always honestly thought they were overrated. i also heard a rumor that they copy and pasted this post from the last time they toured in israel, which is truly just icing on the cake – pretending they only just decided to tour there and recycling an old post in an attempt to cover their asses

>>1544602>>1548979I remember reading the Poppy Brite bio of courtney, which is a little hagiographic (probably because it came out in 1996 when courtney was peak tabloid fodder) but very good overall. I like her, she doesn't fit the lolcow/dramaqueen/narc mold really; she was a product of group homes, special disciplinary schools/programs, didn't have a stable homelife or steady parent figure(passed from household to household)…
A lot of the bad shit she does is just stuff anybody who grew up in group homes or foster care or juvenile detention does: present hypersexually, fuck other girls boyfriends, steal from people around you (because you've learned no one will provide what you need/want, you have to just get it however you can), have falling outs, flit around from city to city burning bridges in various scenes…
Very very relatable, very real (and very damaged) person.
There are some very gatekeepy and catty interactions with riot grrls, mostly when there is a bandscrote that one of them is dating that courtney fucked either before or after or during. She articulates pretty well how she resented that they had that confrontational feminist aesthetic but would bully and gossip about a woman who was trafficked to alaska and singapore as a teen.
But courtney's also much more interested in validation and performance than she is in art or music or acting per se.

>>1549241>I like her, she doesn't fit the lolcow/dramaqueen/narc mold reallyDude, she's one of the biggest cows/snowflakes/narcs of all. she had way more milk and dramas than a lot of the cows here. I like her but it's pointless to say think she's poor delicate being who grew up in a shitty place and nothing she does is her fault.
Courtney had an awful father and stupid mother hanging out at hippie farms, but it wasn't worst upbringing of all. there was a time when Courtney tried to pretend she's so punk and had it so hard, but that's a nonsense. I'm sorry, but her whole poverty larp "I was a pee girl walking around in one dress" is bullshit. She grew up in a rich fucking family, her mother was a lowkey famous psychologist and her grandma was another wealthy family member. Courtney inherited some of her gradmother's money and pretty much was a trust fund baby, for a while she just travelled the world doing nothing, chasing Echo and The Bunnymen kind of bands on tour in England, just living on the trust fund.
She didn't have a good stable home, but neither did lots of lots of people. that doesn't justify her actions. I'm a fan of her, still enjoy music and live show footage, a weird love/hate combo. but as much as i liked her and still like stuff she does, music, poetry/writing scraps, even just looking at her old pics or videos, i have to admit she's a shitty person who said a lot of ignorant shit and did a lot of awful things. She has something nasty in her, the attention whoring and doing EVERYTHING for fame, being a bitch to people unless they lick her ass or can make her more famous somehow.
Idk if i can say she's a very real person. She lies all the time, tells same stories 100 different ways, she wasn't honest about a lot of things. she
appears to be honest sometimes, but it's naive to think she is. she's very calculated and she played the people/media a certain way to be presented the way she wanted. if there's anything real or honest, it's in her lyrics and poems, for example those messy writings in Dirty Blonde book.
>but would bully and gossip about a woman who was trafficked to alaska and singapore as a teen.That stripping teen part of her life is pretty crazy, but Courtney bullied others and gossiped about other women/men herself. she was a total bitch to a lot of people.
It's a bit weird to look at all the shitty things she did through the filter of her teen years at juvenile homes etc. It gives explains a few things, but doesn't excuse her. she's a grown woman, not a teen trafficked in Singapore anymore.
I like Courtney, she and Katie jane Garside are my fav female performers in rock imo. But even as a fan, it's a bit too unrealistic to make excuses for her or deny she's a cow

popular uk artist signed to Dirty Hit records. zoomers love her stuff, she's released mostly 90s-esque pop rock stuff with really solid production, but lately her music is as she called it "sounds like it's from a 2006 teen movie". on tiktok a lot, see her pics all the time on pinterest. her music ain't bad, but is too saccharine for my taste. her look is very solid though, again zoomers are all about the y2k late 90s revival (or i guess now we're going into 2000s revival). she is very active on instagram. not sure if milky though.

I think Soccer Mommy and Snail Mail were indie musicians who got in the right place at the right time, but Badaboobie, Phoebe, Men I Trust, Pale Waves and others are plants. Gayle is 100% a mainstream plant take on "indie", she's a poor result of throwign Billie Eilish, Phoebe Bridgers and Dabadeedabadaa in the blender.

-moved to London at the age of 3
-says parents are NHS workers.
Says "Coffee" was 1st song she ever wrote… and boom, it explodes, just like that?… i don't believe it. she was fished by Matty Healy and the label in 2018. i guess the labels are on the hunt for these sort of chicks rn. but, i still don't understand how this song exploded enough to gather major attention. yes, tik tok, yes, but there's millions of people that are tik-tok famous but they don't get actual music contracts. i think there might some more mystery to it.

>>1502631> because of how bad of a roommate he is which is how he lost the full live band he had at one point (allegedly he's said that he doesn't know how to do dishes)When Tyler dropped out of school, he tweeted that he needed a place to stay for a bit since he dropped out of school. Somebody I knew ended up offering to share their apartment and it was understood that he just needed a bit before he went back home to Houston.
The details are a little hazy to me but he ended up staying for at least four months, probably more. I don't know if he didn't pay rent for the whole time but he wasn't even friends with the guy he was mooching off of. But yes he'd never do the fucking dishes and would leave bowls in the sink for ages to the dismay of the host. The host would sometimes post photos of the dishes because it became an in-joke.
Eventually he moved in with a "friend" in Chicago. He did leave some music as a parting gift but I don't remember what it was. I think it wasn't YAAMC stuff but I can't say for sure.
In other news Tillian of Dance Gavin Dance was metoo'd. The first accusation seems like it was from a lesser known cow but someone else came forward with a much more credible encounter so he's been kicked off the band and DGD was dropped from the Coheed tour.

It's very weird for me that today kids blow up to millions on tiktok, just like that, with some stupid cover, stupid dance, stupid aeshtetic video or something. but you have to be correctly dressed, behave a certain way, post these sort of trendy music/clips/challenges that everybody makes, preferably change pronouns to some nonsense and go nonbinary, dress hot topic circa 2006, declare to be elf, coquette, goblincore or some other shit etc. AND know how to use certain trendy tags that will help to boost. Man i used to think getting fame through The Voice or X Factor was off but this? this is fucked up. I write music and someone told me make tik toks, but i don't really want to. when i look at these sort of ppl who scroll and develop tiktok addictions, or post themselves 24/7 hundreds of videos, looking like idiots, or bending over and doing 10 seconds kindergarten-tier dance choreographies just to get more clout and likes… something throws me away so hard, i just can't. that saying, it's not even offtopic, just a couple of words on modern ways of getting famous. and it's related bc look, this is how those younger indie cows/artists are starting NOW. aside from nepotism ofc. some of them don't even play shows at local venues, they just sit on tik tok but they never played real shows!

They seem to be doing well for themselves, touring a lot, even opening for Taking Back Sunday in the uk ffs. Eventually I saw them live and was kinda surprised and disappointed that they're not awesome live. Could have been an off night, but it seemed like they couldn't play a lot of the guitar parts, and some of the singing was off too. Not to mention they talked a LOT in between songs, like, uncomfortably so. (Also half the crowd was teens and the other half creepy old men, but I don't think that's the band's fault) It just seemed like they were not at the level they should be musically, to be getting the types of shows and tours they do.

No. 1553922
>>1553876Never heard of that band, but that's how it is when these bands don't care about music as much as they care about being internet famous, or get fame too fast. I imagine a lot of them were attention whoring online before the band one way or another, having popular channels etc. They post songs and get clout before they even practice.
I like a band called Forever Still, they're a good example of a talented indie band who slowly build up their career touring and making albums and videos themselves and being very responsive to fan messages/close with fans online. they're on Nuclear Blast now. they're more of a mix of melodic rock/metal etc. rather than punk bands mentioned here but i like them a lot. they're millenials though and not on tiktok iirc.
As to not stray too far from the cows topic, Dani of Surfbort is an example of a really annoying tiktoker. she's 28 but behaves like irritating zoomer online. and ironic part is that she doesn't even need it (tik tok) cause her band is really famous for a band of this caliber, she's a Gucci ambassador and stuff. she does it purely cause she's narcissistic af (i mean as an adjective, not as actual mental illness). She always makes tik toks with Gappylady/Ash Smith chick and it's cringy as she hangs out with her because she has a gap between her front teeth, so they can grin and obsess over their "fucked" teeth together.

on top of that these days big musicians don't get to have artist development to improve their singing and live performances, it's not even an option for indie tiktok artists. vocal legends like whitney houston had to train as background singers for years before they got to perform on their own.

No. 1556001
>>1555940i think it's kind of the other way. like, if you start a tiktok and you have thousands or even milllions of stupid fans, and you show your real face or even talk about each intimate element of your life, then i think it requiers you to be sociable/extraverted/exhibitionist/courageous in a way. i mean those permanently online egirls and e-personalities, not band/musician profiles (cause some of these egirls later start bands and it devolves into shitty bands later). not that anyone cares ofc but as an example: i'm a socially awkward person who usually hates crowds, but for some reason i feel comfortable playing music to a groups of people in the audience. however even imagining me as one of the tiktok ppl talking about every piece of their lives scare me.
Idk i think if you want to play alternative/indie (not even mentioning of punk music), there really is some sort of order of levels you should go through. idk maybe i'm thinking too oldschool, but it's normal to me that in a genre like that, you first start small and play to small crowds in shitty clubs and ppl don't even know you, and your fanbase grows from that point (or not). you gather experience along the way. NOT blowing up overnight, and getting a contract, and AP magazine cover, without playing a single show, without… just playing music. this sounds like pop music career path. heck, not even pop, cause even pop stars had some longer or shorter paths to stardom. this tiktok "you're a star now, be quick" way of things feels very much like instant-meal cook-it-in-the-microwave career. like an imaginary, unreal dream. and for some bands it will probably end not to well, depending on who they are/what they do. close your eyes and you'll miss it, you're a star, and it often ends before you even realize something started.

I'm starting to think that Dani Miller is coming from a solidly wealthy family. maybe not rich, but one that does better than everyone expect. No way a poor/working class girl would center every field of her life around showing off busted teeth like that and double down on showcasing their take on "poverty" as aesthetic. it's not just her always aiming to look disgusting, loving trash and intentionally decorating her room with atrocious shit and meticulously arranged white trash mess - she literally befriends those people who meet her poverty porn/white trash standards. I just now noticed that her ex boyfriend had a missing tooth.
>>1283776 Her best friend has a gap in her front teeth. bitch really picks friends with dental problems and uses them as her toothless sidekicks to make her meth head larp tiktoks. she's obsessed
Her crusty old band members look as ridiculous and exaggerated as her, so i conclude she must be encouraging them to dress even more like trash rednecks. and ofc her new boyfriend as trashy pornstache.

Anons, any milk/opinions on Nova Twins? it's another faux-punk band, not as aggresively shilled as others but still one of that new poser punk egirl model wave.
Basic info i found
>Love and South have been close friends since childhood and have played in bands that were often booked on the same bill. Both of them come from a mixed background; Love is of Iranian and Nigerian descent, and South is of Jamaican and Australian descent. (Georgia South's father, William South, is also a musician).
Idk if her father is very known or influential, but from his bio:
>A full time musician and composer for over 35 years, across many musical areas, William has enjoyed global success with projects Heavy Shift, Philadelphia Bluntz and The South Trio , composed much TV/media music, was MD and co-composer on Punch Drunk’s London show The Drowned Man and currently works mainly in the contemporary dance/ballet world as well as producing and mentoring other artists.

Not strictly related to this band (though including), but punk/alt bands have it hard to stand out these days. Everybody is wearing huge ass spikey chokers, studded belts, fishnets, baggy pants, and punk/goth/alt style is not even that much alt anymore, it's worn by people who'd otherwise be called normies or, idk, pop fans or whatever. it's almost more rebellious to not wear edgy clothes, or make it minimalistic. like just two or three accessories per outfit. cause tank top and arm fishnets, arm warmers, leg warmers, striped socks, plaid skirt, belts, Demonias, colored hair, black lipstick white face, tunnels, thousands of piercings and tattoos, all in one - i feel like all those "indie" bands and tiktok ppl just pile up everything they can, and in effect they all look all the same.

Gwen had reasons to dislike her, Courtney fucked her ex Gavin Rossdale on various occasions back when Gwen was married to him. and she's not exactly quiet about it, she flexes how good was he in bed on public s instagram in comments, whenever Courtney stan accounts post pap pictures of her and Gavin. cringe as all fuck. and people think ~Courtney would never ever cheat on Kurt, she's not that kind of women~ - barf. very funny to read Courtney stans make up excuses for her, that its Gavins fault or it doesn't matter cause he was a cheater anyway - i mean yeah, but doesn't it matter that SHE was unfair to Gwen?

Compared, 2011+ years were empty void and not that much new artists came out then, again especially female, up until 2017+ when all these bedroom pop indie stuff started popping out suddenly. And now, it's so ironic that mainstream media is suddenly interested in rock again, and factory producing new bands, OR revamping old soundcloutrap/model rap instagram personas into "punk" rebels. it's like 2000 MTV all over again but 2000 bands were good, even shittier ones are better than that.

Courtney is not withoutany guit though with how she fucked/was besties with Sam Lufti, as well as having overall dramas with her daughter.

>>1605629That's all good, but i wanted to hear that anon's version too, if they have any milk on her being a bitch. She's not as bad as Arrow, but Arrow is really just lowest level. It's hard to be worse than Starcrawler. She can play an instrument, which is good, but her band just sucks, really mediocre, and Paranoyds voices don't mesh well at all. Idk if that's mixing fault or what, but her voice is plain unlistenable too. Emotionless and with no changes throughout the song, which is in the same vein as Arrow tbh, even if it's not as bad as her.
Now let's talk about her songs. "Girlfriend Degree" is entirely ripped from "Submission" by Sex Pistols, note after note. "Single Origin Experience" sounds like uninspired Green Day/Ramones song. "Hotel Celebrity" is just shit musically, and their critique of celebrities, lip fillers and plastic surgery somehow fall really flat, esp since she's working in that industry and surrounding herself with that kind of people anyway. Idk maybe they have some better songs somewhere, but it really sounds like typical LA indie/punk rock boring shit with bad vocals.
I hope it doesn't come across as bitchy or whatever, i'm just honestly disappointed with her music. Guess it's good if she's genuinely nice, Idk her so it's alljust talking i could be wrong about her. (still curious about Staz is a bitch comment tho.) She's pretty girl but i guess that's all i can say
> Arrow is probably jealous of Staz being pretty:conventionally attractive, she can’t use her to make herself look less unattractive the way she does with DaniTrue. she can't use her so she's at least trying to put her on her good side (post shoutouts, a few seconds in the music video - i barely noticed her!) in hopes it will benefit her other way someday.

"She has never fixed her broken tooth since 2015, and why she favours a rugged Eastern bloc-style mullet." Her filmmaker daddy even made a film about tooth gaps and inserted her in it. She's a Gucci "it girl" who inspired some Gucci bag model, and walked runways for Gucci

>he may be on the next season of Love Island.Lmao i hope so! can't tell if this is true crazy obsession or carefully staged insanity in order to get fame, the dedication kind of suggests it's true, but either way it's funny. how hasn't he blown on tiktok yet? theoretically he has a chance, if he uses the right tags. The mystery of all that is fascinating, but it might as well turn out there's no Love Island role. at least not in this universe kek i have faith though
Imagine him going like "I want a girlfriend who's like Hayley Williams" on the show

>>1509760>>1509837This is sad to hear because I actually like Hands Off Gretel and I love that they had this 90s grunge revival sound. I honestly don't get all that bothered when newer bands try to sound like older bands but tbf, I'm a millennial who got interested in 90s Alternative music when I was in high school so I'm a sucker for newer bands who try to emulate that sound. I was so burnt out from the garage/indie rock and alternative pop punk sounds that dominated rock in the early 2000s which is what inspired me to check out more music from the 1990s and where I found my likeness for 90s-style alternative rock and grunge/ So bands like that, Skating Poly, Dinosaur Pile Up, etc. are right up my alley even if they are derivative.
I mean is it really so wrong to play a style and emulate bands that you love?
No. 1607302
>>1607264It's not bad, as long as it doesn't go to far, and as long as you throw something new/your personality to the mix, and it outweights similarities to other bands. Problem is, nobody understands that now. I see no personalities/new stuff here, i see idiots who copy other artists 1 to 1, from head to toe, which just makes them cosplay cover bands.
Now it's just so blatant, so unoriginal that you realize that these bands are not just copying genre, they're copying entire fucking songs, note by note, lyrics (like all the "milk" talking from CLove songs), riffs, and finally, outfits. You really want to listen to bands that are skinwalkers? You want to see Skating Polly with chick cosplaying Exene? or HOG with chick skinwalking, who, Courtney, then Brody Dalle, then Jack Off Jill, then all of the sudden, Melanie Martinez? Girl they're all corporate models, you really think these guys
>>1509850genuinely dress like that?
But all that aside. These ones are just shitty people, attention whores, narcissists, careerists and most of the time, rich fucking kids who made careers thanks to their stage parents, but ofc deny everything and pretend they crawled out of some serious poverty.
nostalgic music means nothing, when people playing it fucking suck, are rude bitches or overall fake as fuck. I'm sorry, but the idea that there are people who genuinely like shit like Hands Off Gretel is kind of amusing. pick better idols, or stick to the old music.
>>1607264 No. 1608168
>>1607302AYRT. After skimming through the thread and reading the dirty laundry for some of these bands, I can see what you're saying about how many are just playing cosplay which sure, it's pretty sad to see instead of them just simply taking inspiration but still having their own twist on what their doing.
I feel like the Nova Twins kinda do that no? Like they're going for that hard rock meets pop punk sound but in some of their songs they do a sorta rap-style singing. Are you talking about things like that?
Also I suppsoe the reason why I'm not as demanding for originality is because it feels like everything has been done y'know? Like if you were to start an alt. rock band, what would you do to stand out? I personally am stumped when I think about what I would do lol.
And another thing I should specify is that I never looked into the band members as a whole. Like with Hands off Gretel and Skating Poly for example, all I did was watch their music videos and/or listen to their music on Spotify and that's it. Never bothered looking into the musicians themselves because I just wanted to enjoy the music for what it was, derivative or not.
Because to be honest I can't help but feel that if social media existed back in the 90s and early 2000s then we would probably hate some of the older beloved musicians to the point of not wanting to listen to their music, especially with someone like Courtney Love and possibly Kurt Cobain. So when it comes to discovering new music, especially in 90s rock revival, I just stick with the music usually.
>pick better idolsThey are definitely not my idols LOL Just because I don't mind their music doesn't mean I worship them. Same with Skating Polly lol.
On the by, I'm open to suggestions of new bands that you think are worth checking out.
No. 1608246
>>1608168AYRT Yeah, i'm not a fan but Nova Twins don't seen to be milky/rude bitches etc. and they wear just alt style without skinwalking anyone i think. I haven't listened to them tbh, maybe other anons can comment but they seem ok, as in drama-free at least.
And I agree, it's hard to invent anything new bc in rock (and everything, basically) all has been said and done, unfortunately. It's fine to play grunge for example, if you like it, but pls don't rip off riffs & melodies at least. Don't skinwalk your idols. etc that's what i'm talking about. Skating Polly skinwalks Exene. Arrow de Wilde skinwalks Katie Jane Garside to hell and back, in every way. Dani Miller just rips off Peaches and all things 70's-80's. That Brazilian/Spain grunge band, um, Margaritas something, just slaps on Shein/Aliexpress kinderwhore dresses and it's so unoriginal, that's been done 10000times.
it's hard to invent anything new now, but if you just can't completely, then perhaps you shouldn't play in a band you know? You can form tribute band and skinwalk Courtney Love if you can't play anything without being ripoff. The YOU i'm directing at those bands of course, not you anon ofc.
That's ok. I think Skating Polly looks normal, but for hands Off Gretel, something was so off about this chick to me, i immediately sensed it's some bullshit, but i didn't know about their drama either, before other anon spilled the milk on them.
Dude, people hated on new bands in 2000 too. If ppl sensed some bands are posers, they usually would talk about it on forums and whatnot. Remember how everybody hated Limp Bizkit?
You can listen to whatever you like, but this thread specifically is dedicated to gossiping about bands and spillign milk on industry cows, and exposing bands that are corporate shit larping as punk (The Regrettes, Starcrawler) or nepo babies who make career due to rich parents connections (Pretty Sick, Sunflower Bean, THe Paranoyds, etc etc). Some of us dislike bands with nepo babies, or attention whores, or generally unoriginal aesthetics. But if you like these bands nonetheless, it's your right to do so we just gossip
Idk I don't have much recommendations, unfortunately. I'm the anon who said i like Soccer Mommy - she has a sort of 00's alt/shoegaze inspired sort of music and I like it, even though her voice sounds like 100s of other indie girls. But her songwriting/lyrics are good imo, and she doesn't copy anyone stylewise at least. I like her 2nd album. so that's my one, maybe other anons have more recs

That's slightly off-topic as they're not indie, but these idiots crack me up. How are they able to fill out arenas? WHO is listening to that shit? It's just hilarious how ALL of them are in their 30's, but they pretend to be neon colored middle schoolers and skateboarders. All their album covers/shoots take place in california schools and they act extremely juvenile. All of them date irrelevant stars from the 00's for clout (Megan Fox, Avril Lavigne, Bella Thorne) tht are semi relevant again bc of Y2K trend. all of them hang out with the same ppl (Halsey, Willow Smith, Avril).
But just 5 years ago, they all were some Soundclout rapers mumbling about xanax and bitches, and trying hard to be the next Lil Peep. Big LOL at Mod Sun, he looked horrible then and looks horrible now.

>>1608250I'm not even gonna pretend I know who these people are because I never got into soundcloud rap, I personally loathed that music tbh. Isn't the one in the top left Machine Gun Kelly? Just guessing because I saw the music video Avril Lavgine did with him because a friend of mine was raving that Avril Lavigne has "returned to her roots". Didn't like the song at all.
Hearing your summary of how these "pop punk" revival people were Soundcloud rappers, it really shows how shallow these people are. They really don't care about the genre and are just doing it for attention because of how trendy it is right now.
No. 1608282
>>1608268yeah it's MGK and Mod Sun. Avril Lavigne is just recently engaged to Mod Sun and it's just. cringe. she also tours/sings with MGK a lot. Avril clearly wants to pander to this new-old pop-punk audience and idk prove that she's youthful or something i guess, and that's why she hangs out with these idiots. another soundclouter she has collab with blackbear. i only know those ppl bc i read Soundclout threads. but Avril just has low IQ overall i guess, so no surprise.
anyways Avril's new albums is shit. i mean yeah, it has guitars, but her vocals are just so fucking screechy and annoying. it's pop punk, but it sounds shitty, and every song sounds the same. i liked Avril in my kid days and wished she came to that pop punk sound, but now i'm disappointed. It's nowhere near The Best Damn Thing even.

No. 1608559
>>1608282AYRT, Oh okay, yeah I thought so. I tried listening to one of MGK's songs and I couldn't finish it, it's just not my cup of tea. As for Avril, aside from that awful collab song she did, at my job they overplayed "Bite Me" so much and the lyrics are just juvenile. i hate to be "that" person but as someone in their early 30s, I can't find lyrics like that relatable and I feel like Avril is stuck in the past when she's almost fucking 40. I don't think one needs to get all stiff and no fun as they age but I think there's a difference between going with the flow as you age vs being stuck in a high school mindset and she's falling into the later.
The instrumentation of her newer songs sound generic as hell, very run of the mill of the genre and it sucks because like you, I enjoyed her early 2000s era with the first album and a bit of the second album. I didn't care much for Best Damn Thing and my interest in her music started to only dwindle even more as she released more albums after that but there's something about the first album that I can't help but like, even 15 years later. I question whether it was actually good or just nostalgia because I can still listen to "Losing Grip", "I'm with you", and fuck, even "complicated" and enjoy it kek.

>>1608559>>1608559>the lyrics are just juvenileyeah, that's a problem with pretty much every song she put out. it wasn't as jarring on her first records considering she was a teen, but everything past it was just awful lyrically. allegedly, the only exception was her album that came out before the current one, but i didn't care much to listen as her new stuff was always disappoitment. Interestingly, she was praised by media and fans at the time for finally being mature in her music, videos, etc. And it indeed seemed like she wanted to be more serious and all, but then just went backwards a few steps on this new one.
i gotta say she's just kindof… dumb. she quit school at 14 or 15 and immediately went to NY to work on her first album, and it shows painfully. she doesn't seem to be someone knowledgeable or reading books, at all (sorry). it seems abit like she never grew up beyond that freshman year level. she's childish, and her music labels only fueled that bc she was really mismanaged for years as they tried hard to make her write next "Girlfriend" instead of anything else. immature in both interviews in lyrics, i mean fine, but at 38 i'd expect some better life reflections from her that "Na na na na not another breakup" or "Whoah whoah lalala i'm mf princess, love sux"

>>1608735It's so cool to hear this perspective from another person because anytime I talked to others about how I don't think Avril's lyrics post Let Go & Under My Skin era are good, i get called a "hater" when my main issue isn't her preferred fashion style, I just expected her to have maturer lyrics as she aged and got more life experience, is that really so wrong? lol Like can you imagine her making more teeny bop lyrics when she's in her 40s? It's gonna be so tacky. If she wants to keep using the pop punk instruments that is totally fine but it would be if she let her lyrics grow up.
I think you're right that her not finishing high school totally is affecting her where she never left that freshmen mentality. I actually hadn't seen any of her recent interviews so I watched one and yeah, she does come off a bit stunted.
IDK I just hope that Avril realizes that it's okay to grow up and how it doesn't mean you have to change everything about yourself.

>>1608838>but no it doesn't fit the pop punk of 00's, people dressed different.Yeah that's true. Thinking back to how a lot of musicians in pop punk dressed in the late 90s and early 000s, it was actually pretty casual in comparison. T-shirts, jeans or shorts, chucks or vans, maybe a plaid button down shirt, beanie, and gauge piercings lol.
I don't recall any pop punk singer dressing anything like what that guy is doing. I feel like he modern day pop punk is just falling to trend fashion because that's what zoomers care about. They tend to care more about image than the actual music itself lol.
No. 1609084
>>1608870When TBDT was out, she was only 21 so i close my eyes on that, the problem is the lyrics are just silly. As for the rest of her newer albums, i agree. I think Head Above Water was an attempt at more serious writing, but she was pretty much ignored bc songs were mediocre so maybe she assumed she's gotta try overplayed formula again. and it's not just the lyrics! i only heard singles from H.A.W. and her voice sounded so much better/more mature than that Bite Me album. now she just yells and squeals, even worse than on TBDT. like girl you're not 16yo cheerleader anymore. a shame
>>1608881>idgaf about a bunch of guys who can't play guitar and hate womenwho are you talking about? original pop punkers or current? cause i'd say current ones are 100 times worse. as for playing guitar, Sum 41 could play their guitars. They were standing out among others just cause they were better technically and had both pop punk and metal/ish songs.
not denying or wking just saying. both pop punk versions had its problems i agree, and alot of them behaved like idiots. but i think i'd take og 00's pop punk over the new one, even if i don't care for 99% of the bands like FOB, Papa Roach, Blink, etc. At least music was better
>>1608880alright cool
No. 1609132
>>1609084Yeah as much as I don't care for TBDT and especially taking note that Avril would've been technically 4 years out of high school when she made it, I let it slip as well. HAW could've been better if she incorporated some more rock into it. It's all up to personal taste but I think rock music can work for it and it could've for that one.
As annoying as I'm finding Avril having this sorta midlife crises (I'm not sure), I'm hoping when she gets to her 40s she'll mellow out and accept change while remember she doesn't have to lose all of herself.
However I feel like part of why Avril comes off awkward is that she isn't really active in her local punk/DIY scene, at least that I'm aware. I know that she was always considered "Poser punk" even back in the early 2000s and I can understand why punk fans felt that way, especially when they would hear things like Avril is the queen and/or princess of Punk music lol. But I think if she interacted more with her local scene and see an older crowd around her age or even older, it could help show her that maturation doesn't mean full-on abandoning.
No. 1609163
>>1609132True. I think she'd be 100% fine with ballads that midway turn into powerful rock thing a'la Evanescence (which she lowkey tried to pull off on UMS, she even worked with Ben Moody on some songs). There's an alternative version of Forgotten on YT, which i'm forever curious if it's legit or fanmade, but it's been there for years and her even biggest fans claim it's real so idk maybe? anyways it shows that her music could benefit from more rock. whole UMS shows it - that's all her fans want, pop music but with rock and guitars and stuff. New album has guitars, but… it falls flat. like it's just wall of sound, but riffs & melodies aren't good. her album tracks are just 12 repeated Bite Mes.
And jfc she has tiktok now. i watched one vid of her singing "don't call me, i love u when u hate me ekss dee" whilst making hand signs representing words & overall juvenile tiktok dance, next to MGK… nope. why is the world like that
No. 1609180
I'll also add some old milk, well a couple of amusing things. Avril has nothing to do with punk scene, besides maybe marrying Deryck Whibley of Sum 41, and her earliest boyband. these guys were allegedly from Canadian punk scene & one of them started indie record label. I remember a video where i think Evan said he bought her some most basic punk albums for the tourbus stereo so she could get to know some, but she kinda brushed it off and only wanted to listen to Dixie Chicks and Blink 182 at most. poor guy sounded so disappointed, lol. (anyways, when he left her "band", it was pretty much over, Evan wrote her best songs i think.)
She was VERY ignorant as a teen, like remember her quotes like who cares about Sex Pistols, i don't have to know that one, it's 2002 or something. And then later she said: "I'm like Sid Vicious of my generation" LOLOL. she said "i'm not punk" in interviews,but then Sid comemnt… girl, which one is it? haha.
Then there's this video when she was supposed to read aloud award winner, and she was visibly like who? and read "DAVID BAWWIE". kek ppl gave her so much shit for it.
It's kind of understandable bc she used to sing country before her fame, but it's just amazing how this girl had no curiosity to learn and expand her playlist.
I have a soft spot for her bc of nostalgia, and it's not very bad music, but people were right some things about her are so awkward. Media should've never labeled her as punk. However NOW there are posers 100 times bigger than Avril, and get labeled as punk. even looking at some female cows posted ITT, comparing Avril's old music seems so much better.

As for Sum 41, the only "milk" i have is that Deryck dated Paris Hilton for a second in 2003. which i think now, it wasn't that he managed to charm Paris big time (he's kinda shy offstage/outside of the band), it was Paris who went for him because she wanted her stereotypical "hot pop punk spiked hair guy 2003!" lmao.
Now for the band itself. that's not as much a milk as a sad one. Deryck was an alcoholic self hating enough that his liver and kidneys collapsed in 2014. he had a model girlfriend who was suicidal and alcoholic too. he stopped drinking after that, cause he no other way and seems they both successfuly got sober since. And here's the thing: nearly entirety of his band was pretty much done with him after drunken tours, but when he was fighting for life in a hospital, all of them visited him except for the drummer Stevo. and they used to be best friends since childhood and he just flaked on him. i think Deryck wrote some angry verse in a song about him later and stopped mentioning him forever, while the rest of the band is more or less friends still but when the press asks about falling out, they always cover his ass.
Anyways Stevo 32 is a real estate agent now.

>>1610513posting about this one because they'll get lost
i can provide for all of these. i'll start with an incoherent afi summary because davey is such a cow.
he used to be engaged to former local model monica parker in 1999, and the way i know this story is that davey went on tour and she cheated on him with matt skiba (who later cheated on her after they got married and is a cow himself).
from what i noticed monie still hangs out with toby morse (skiba's friend and h2o member) and his wife despite divorcing matt.
after this davey dated brittany bowen, broke up, and i believe dated or had a fling with rosie o'laskey after skiba cheated on her (around 2012).
i haven't seen davey date anyone publicly but in the past year he's been hanging around lexie jiaras (influencer nepobaby and co-owner of monty's good burger) and david bates (influencer photographer) because he's reached a mid-life crisis and is trying to become an influencer himself. he used to shit on people who went to coachella but now his influencer friends get him to coachella. the other monty's co-owner is nic adler (nepobaby and culinary director of coachella). there's a few photos of davey and david bates kissing.

You’re in your 40s now and you’ve said before that you never thought you’d live to be this age. How do you reconcile the fact that you’re still here and doing what you do and have survived this life that you’ve led?
"I guess a good answer to that is, ‘Date really beautiful younger women!’ They keep you young. And there are a lot of beautiful women living in LA. It’s like being a part of a really pretty zoo sometimes, although my idea of a beautiful woman and the average Hollywood douchebag’s taste in women is probably quite a bit different…"
A lot of [your] recklessness was brought about by difficult or failed relationships. Would you rather have kept the girl or written the songs?
"Well, the girl doesn't pay the rent. And the music doesn't get jealous or hold things against you that didn't even happen."
Your divorce ultimately inspired a lot of the 2010 [Alkaline Trio's seventh] album 'This Addiction.' Was the catharsis of writing that record any different to, say, a 'normal' breakup?
"No, because all marriage is is a fucking piece of paper. Our wedding was the best wedding I've ever been to. It was fucking beautiful and not your typical wedding. It was one of the best times I ever had, but when money and the 'this is mine and this is yours' garbage come into play, you're writing from a place of anger rather than hurt, because somebody is bleeding you dry - whether it's monetarily or emotionally or, in my case, both."
while he was divorcing monie (2009-2012) he started dating rosie (2011?, broke up, got back together until 2012, got back together until 2014?), until he cheated on her and wrote another album about it.
since then he's been up asia argento's ass.
