PO: Ringo Deathstarr - Colour Trip/Sparkler REPRESS
rogeoa8 replied to dvv's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I am probably the only person who did not file a claim in time, so just waiting on my 1/1 ultra-limmy pressing -

PO NOW: The Killers - Wonderful Wonderful

sounds like a song soon to be featured on an ea sports video game. not a good start. -
"the post-hippie/pre-AIDS culture that then set the basis of electro and metal to give us a unique, violent and crazy 80s"? Is this some European's perspective of America after taking a post 1950's US history course?

any legal way to watch the first few eps without signing up and paying for an overpriced and otherwise completely meaningless to anyone in the world Showtime sub? I guess that was their whole point to getting the TP revival

PO: Beth Ditto (singer from the Gossip) - Fake Sugar
rogeoa8 replied to thepunkguy's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I was waiting for the onslaught of bigotry claims, but it appears the white knights are taking a very subtle approach to combat the sheer intolerance of this devastating fat joke -
Man, am I sick of hearing this one. People have simply lost the ability to have honest, open, emotionless debate.

Thread update: 10 pages later we have reached the Bull Moose Circle-Jerk Phase. Even when Bull Moose does wrong they get tugged. Not even in SRC's wettest dreams could they aspire to that status (and for good reason). But for real, BM is usually great and all, but something like this is no reason to be celebrating them. You can criticize but still approve of them. -
songs are fine to listen to, not disagreeing. also not saying there is anything wrong with liking music for the sound alone. but just because someone has "punk roots" does not mean they have ever been political, lyrically. i was making a comparison between artists who have always been political, and those who have never been but suddenly found the courage in 2017 (its not courage at all). Others might disagree, but I would argue 2017 has seen the biggest wave of artists-gone-political than the start of any year in recent memory. There is something to be said for that, and its not just the recursive "#dumptrump". joining a million voices already saying the same thing is not political courage, and its definitely not punk rock. end rant, sorry i just completely lose some of my formerly favorite artists when they start writing this stuff i dont care about.

im tired of many artists that I listen to, who managed to stay admirably apolitical for decades, finally finding their political "courage" when it has never been easier than to be anti-Trump in 2017. boring. not courageous. feigned political acumen. I might not agree with many of the views of anarchist punk bands that have been political for decades, but they have far more say than Gorillaz and James Murphy in my book. anyone else miss music about real life? politics isnt real life

Haha fair enough. I'm just pissed ive spent a total about 15 minutes over the last 24 hours reading each post on this thread. Then I realize this is a personal problem, and proceed to take it out on said thread. -

And folks, we've entered the vinyl coloration speculation stage. This thread is only a young 26 going on 27. Much more to come! I eagerly await the "shipping notification/no shipping notification" stage, still over a month away. -
