Doesn't bother me. Same with Joe Queer. I may not agree with the views they have on a lot of things, but I don't think they're racists/sexist/homophobes at all.

That was in 2011 though. I mean...would I act that way? No. But it won't stop me from enjoying his music.

dont get me wrong i for sure own some of his records, the first being teenage punks in heat, but its hard to look at my nieces and think that im giving this guy money. not one but two women one who was trying to stop him from hitting the first.

I won't justify/condemn his actions without knowing all the details, y'know?

its on video so its hard to deny. anyway to offset what you might see as a judgement, its not, let me ask this, whats your favorite fallout boy album? yeah that period of greenday is great and there best but i really liked american idiot and think he put belief over sales even though it did well. many bands on indie punk rock labels refused to be on the rock against bush comp fat put out even though they wanted to but were afraid to anger there label and risk sales. i thought what greenday did with that album was brave imo

thats a good list crystal. merle haggard, hank williams and motzart (sic) are all good company. still cant take the national but you picked some good ones. no one remembers grandaddy anymore and they made two really really good albums. one i cant listen to cause it makes me sad

We're half awake in a fake empire.

i dont think anyone wants me anymore awake than i am already. dont get me wrong i dont dislike the band but i always get kinda bored with it, whatever song im listening from them. obviously good musicians and it very obviously struck a chord in a lot of people but just not me

Ghoul had the second post after J. Fairplay. Very good. He then did a delete (not an edit) because he had 40.
If he had not put Beastie Boys on, I don't think people would be putting them on as much.

I didn't put the Smiths because in my brain, Morrissey is The Smiths.
