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

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

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

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?”

I think it's just because people can't think for themselves. If it's true I'll still consider them one of my favorite bands, almost unrelated but I still listen to Whirr too and they lost an entire fanbase from a single tweet. 

One of the greatest questions ever pondered through song was  "Are we human, or are we Dancer"?, right?

On my first listen, 'Trigger' is so sick goddamn, so far it seems like a nice progression from the last one, this band does no wrong.

It's beautiful.

Hey man, get out of here with your logical reasoning. This is a VC for crying out loud.

Get over youself. Some of us didn't even get a chance to buy it after refreshing a screen for 20 minutes. Stop acting like the band personally attacked you

I like to think I'm pretty funny sometimes 

There is no point, everything is absurd. Might as well buy a Bon Iver record with only two good songs.

This is getting so...

Was hoping for some colored variants but remixed and remastered is pretty cool too.

Hey everyone! Sorry to bump an old(ish) thread but I had a chance to film Tigers Jaw play an hour-long acoustic set last week for my Youtube channel when my friend's band opened for them. Here's a link incase anyone wanted to check it out, it's first time that acoustic versions of some of the new songs (Favorite and Make It Up) have surfaced online as far as I'm aware of so that was really exciting to be a part of!
