You already made this """joke""" yesterday by the way and it's still just as void of humor as it was then. Please hurry up and get banned again.

Yeah I'm 100% sure they were TOTALLY involved with the low-key skype relationship Jesse had with a minor. I'm sure he talked about it all the time to his bandmates, how he jerked off on camera for a 15 year old. Shut the fuck up man.

So anyone have a Brand New tattoo they'd like to share?

I think you’ve successfully held that title for this thread. At least you’re consistent in being a dickbag.

I'm fully aware this photo is garbage but this was worth schlepping down to Banquet Records to pick up today They tend to sell a handful of signed albums after gigs promoted by them happen (she played an in-store yesterday but I couldn't make it) and I was expecting black, *maybe* clear if I was lucky. But nope, tour purple! It's actually more of a fuchsia color, especially when held up to light. Very pretty and complements the album art well.

She was 15 mate. The hell is wrong with you?

Whoa now. That's a real slippery slope you're treading, pal. "You" as an adult man can not encourage them to send you nude photos and not ask them to watch you jerk it, though. The only even halfway reasonable excuse that I can imagine is that this specific young lady looked old enough to pass for 18 and lied about her age, anything beyond that is completely unacceptable. I'll give anyone accused of something the benefit of the doubt, but since didn't deny it in his statement, and made an apology to numerous women, I accept that this is probably true.

And I need to grow up? Do you ever look back at the things you post and just think to yourself “God I’m such a depressing asshole.” Im glad it’s that easy to get you riled up though.

I know I should stay away from this thread by now but just like any good trainwreck it's really hard to look away.

Pretty disappointed in their low effort attempt at outrage. Too much giggling. Couldn’t hold that shit in for 10 seconds?

A mostly minor irrelevant technicality in the grand scheme of things, but Jesse Lacey is not Brand New, he is IN Brand New. The band, Brand New, did not engage in acts of sexual misconduct. Jesse Lacey did.

It looks like an expanded reissue of The Sonny Clark Trio will be out on stupid Black Friday. Hope it's not too limited because I ain't standing in a line. http://wbgo.org/post/sonny-clark-steps-out-shadows-revelatory-new-reissue-1960#stream/0

15 is still a child. And immature doesn't cut it when he was old enough to know better. Fuck outta here with your nonsense

individual release coming on December 8 https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_nr_p_n_date_2?fst=as%3Aoff&rh=n%3A5174%2Ck%3ARammstein%2Cp_n_date%3A1249114011&keywords=Rammstein&ie=UTF8&qid=1510481520&rnid=1249111011

Fuck yeah I suck everyone hates me it's not just you and a few other losers.

No you’re usually just an all around asshole to anyone on the boards. Obviously Jhulud is one of the nicest dudes on here and he’s clearly not joking about pedophilia but apparently you think we all need to know how much of a self righteous prick you are.

I know it’s all bad, and you may be making a joke, but let’s not get too carried away comparing the crimes committed by these two. One manipulated young girls into doing naked Skype things, the other wanted to pay to fuck a baby.

No mention of the very limited vinyl, dissapointed

Looks like the fulfillment is moving to LiveNation. Sandbag is officially out.

Hey thanks man! Finally someone sane gets it... that shitposter is just trying to raise his post count and get free trophies what a stinker.

sunshine you are on a roll in this thread lighting everyone up, dishing out 3rd degree burns left and right. you are shining like the sun!

Nice you can count to 5

Not much to dig up. Only had to go back the last 5 pages of this thread.

burned that, too

I just find it funny (actually annoying) that you’re suddenly the only expert that can weigh in on something we all no very little about. You also seem like the kind of person that wants to have your opinion but not let anyone else have theirs.

You should specify NO FLIPPERS in the title, then.

Still no cancellation yet, so fingers crossed they hold true with the cheaper price. I would say if they were gonna cancel they would have already. Really enjoying Get Out of Your Own Way and The Blackout.

Let's be real though they knew what was going on.

Best post I've seen in a while. Time to look through the tattoo thread haha

I just listened all the way through. Christ, that's good.

Thanks for this - will try and pick it up over here.

Watched Mayhem last night and thought it was fun. It's kind of what The Belko Experiment should've been. Not a must see movie, but if you need something entertaining and violet to fill 90 minutes, it fit that well. Steve Moore's score for it was solid too.

Spun this yesterday and I gotta say it really does sound brilliant. Glad to finally have all their albums on wax at last. Now we just need an EP boxset.

I wasn't talking about Jesse's exact situation, I was mostly referring to the threads in r/Brand New where girls had posted saying that when they were underage they would knowingly lie to older guys in bands about being 18 and send them nudes and such, knowingly and on their own accord. Now because they were underage it's hard to say they actually knew what they were doing, but there is another side to the coin. And yes I know I'm treading a slippery slope and I'm not supporting the abuse of minors but young girls can easily tempt and ruin a man's life without a second thought. We don't know if the girl lied to Jesse about her age, probably not, so it might not apply to this situation, but I'm just saying Jesse is not the only guy in a band to ever do this with an underage girl 8n the internet age

I should have prefaced my post to say that I’m looking to not support flippers.

Just got my copies in. Thanks Piky0032!!! Checked for differences and there are some. Colors on the sleeves are slightly lighter (The letters "The Bronx" written in blood on Bronx I are much more red) Original Bronx II is more off white/creamy white. New version is brighter white. Wanted to post a picture of the differences between the new and original Bronx I but for some reason i can't seem to figure where that option is. New version is black with white that turned into grey marble. Original is purple/grey marble. I'll probably post the differences on my instagram later on. (or someone has a solution to post it here?)

Try and present that excuse in front of a judge in the United States judicial system and you'll be laughed out of the room straight into your jail cell as a registered sex offender. Even more so if there are other stories that we don't know about from his past which he has alluded to and there are countless other rumors floating around. A child in the US is still considered from age 0 -17. He was a legal adult. The definition of pedophilia is pretty clear in a court room and is pretty obviously used among society as meaning anyone that preys on a child regardless of their attributes. Premeditated actions and manipulation also were at play here. Really sounds like you're trying to justify his actions and the situation as passable which I hope is not the case and you just poorly worded your post. Bottom line is the guy is a shit bag. I wont support him with money but I will most likely continue to listen to their music in the future. I agree that the 'public judge and jury outrage machine' is dangerous but that's how society functions.

http://www.runforcoverrecords.com/products/604363-field-medic-songs-from-the-sunroom Field Medic is the lo-fi folk project of Kevin Patrick. His first release on Run For Cover Records, Songs From the Sunroom, compiles material he’s recorded and released over two years from a small sunroom in San Francisco which doubled as his bedroom. At eighteen, Patrick discovered the music of Joni Mitchell and Bob Dylan, who changed his perspective on what a song could be and led to him developing his own style which he describes as “freak folk/post country with an emphasis on finger style guitar and lyrics.” Patrick initially embraced lo-fi because he felt that his home recordings were a truer method of expressing what he was creating than anything he could do in a studio. Drawing inspiration from new wave and rap, Patrick pushed the boundaries of what a folk song could be, incorporating new elements in each subsequent release from analogue drum machines to Casio keyboards to banjo. The immediacy of that recording process and the freedom of experimentation inherent within are central to Field Medic’s character, extending through his music to his freestyle, improvised mixtapes and his poetry. The tracks on Songs From the Sunroom were recorded during a heightened creative period and released as an almost non-stop flurry of EPs, albums, and singles, all of which have been shared via Bandcamp since 2014. As Field Medic, Patrick has released every song he has ever recorded, a conscious decision summed up in his philosophy that “all expression is valid”. “I don’t believe in perfection, I learned that perfect wasn’t real” he explains, continuing “To me [the tracks on SFtS] aren’t demos, they’re the finished songs because no one was waiting on any other versions, so why would I?”

Oh yea? Prove it, tough guy.

Well I guess I'll probably never get to see Brand New again. All human beings are shitty, I don't doubt for a second everyone on here has done some regrettable shit, I have for sure, but in reality this isn't that scandalous in this day and age. Over at r/Brand New there are some interesting threads about how this kind of stuff happens between underage girls and dudes who are in their 20's in bands. I've seen it first hand and I honestly don't think we are even beginning to scratch the surface of a much larger problem. We can't blame the underage girls but we were all teenagers before so we know what its like wantng to grow up quickly and be mature. You can't tell them what to do, they will do whatever the fuck they want. We can surely and easily blame the men for being irresponsible adults and taking advantage because that's what they are doing, and it ultimately is wrong on them, but it's too easy for a young naive teenager to put themselves in a situation that they think they want but they don't fully understand the consequences of. Like I said not even scratching the surface, but I think this is the real conversation that needs to happen

think about it, the 'inner jacket' only cost $1 per jacket to protect your record in a sturdy great sleeve and make it easy to put it in and out of the outer jacket. how are you guys not excited about this discovery?!?!

I picked up a white Coastal Dives. The preview tracks sounded real good.

I'd put it at 10,000 days. Oops, wrong band, but Jakob did open for them.

If you are at the point where you don't even know what you need it would be insane to spend that kind of money

For those who may be interested, Shangri-La Records in Memphis has copies of American Blues from Julien’s previous band, the Star Killers, on vinyl. It was supposedly limited to 300 and is probably reasonably hard to come by, but I ordered it last week and got it today and it’s still showing as in stock. Not sure how many more copies they have. https://shangri.com/product/american-blues/

Good morning to all the former posters here... Update, new job. Stayed in NYC. Soooooooooooooo... Yeah quick update for the ether.
