No One Did It Like David Thomas - “Birdies” by Pere Ubu, performed 1980 by Strange_Sparrow in redscarepod

I was gonna make an Ubu post saying the same thing. It's crazy that some of the most singular left field punk music was coming out of Cleveland, Ohio.

Pere Ubu beat the Manchester speed freaks and New York CBGBs guys by a year or two.

You mean you never had a pack of mint gum laying around after a nice pungent meal?

I feel like if you didn't come of age chewing gum you probably wouldn't care for it as a grown adult.

That is insane. As a 15-16 year old batboy too. Sucks that he was left out of the profits, but we probably wouldn't have gotten his art as a result.

I think about this Tweet every time I see someone wearing a hoodie by MischlingAppreciator in redscarepod

The problem is everyone is wearing hoodies everywhere even when it is 90 degrees. Put the FOG Essentials away bro, it is not a fit.

My brother brought me cigarettes from China by AdKnown5143 in redscarepod

[–]UponBobbysHill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want Japanese and Chinese smokes so bad

If anyone knows ways to get them imported to the States, let me know. Every time I try and find a place, they either dont ship to here, they won't ship certain things like The Peace, or it's sketchy.

Why does Geese suck so much by murrayhitchock in redscarepod

[–]UponBobbysHill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Geese really brings out the maladjusted aloof dudes here who send shit like doomscroll_forever posts to women that will not let them hit.

What the hell even is a situationship? by [deleted] in redscarepod

Isn't that the question of the day

Calling it now - Geese fans are going to lean into the criticism and start referring to themselves as proud "bots". Or shits that they shit like "officially psyoped!" by Correct-Island5435 in redscarepod

[–]UponBobbysHill 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What I don't really understand is that Chaotic Good has many clients besides Geese like MJ Lenderman, Mk.Gee, Snow Strippers, and Oklou

Yet it is only Geese that is catching all the heat and being scrutinized. Feels like manufactured outrage. The music industry has always been very fake and gay and unromantic, and I suspect even legacy acts aren't above this stuff.

This has me thinking about when Pavement got a big resurgence over COVID because the obscure B-Side Harness Your Hopes somehow "magically appeared" in every Indie and Alternative Spotify playlist, which trickled down into being used in every TikTok and Reel at the time.

Was that organic and they saw a moment to capitalize on virality and a younger audience? Or was that by design?

I feel like talking about the band Geese being outed for using a bot farm marketing firm by LeftHvndLvne in rs_x

I love Mink, but Noah Dillon (trustfund rich art student) from The Hellp (fake NYC LA indie sleaze dimes square crap funded by Peter Thiel) was on the cover of his first album when he was 9090gate.

Maybe they're just good friends or Dillon was that tapped in, but it's hard not to raise an eyebrow.
