It's on Waffles, but even though it says there are two seeders I can't connect to them. If I ever do I'll let you know.

After relistening, and listening to his newest album, i definitely think that it was way funnier when I was a kid. But Amish Paradise will always be hilarious.

every time i see him perform on a late night show or something with a really cheap looking set up and that fucking dorky guitarist he's had forever i get angry. it's irrational, i can't explain it.

steve albini's such a cunt

[Only registered users can see links.]

As far as pop-culture news goes, the beginning of August is like one big donkey with a fly zipping lazily around its head. So thank goodness an aging loudmouth decided to criticize a group of up-and-coming loudmouths this week. First Steve Albini took to his recording studio’s website to relate an anecdote about sharing an airport shuttle in Barcelona with Odd Future, and now Tyler, The Creator has predictably taken to Twitter to turn this into a full-scale (by dog days of summer standards anyway) feud.

"[i] Feel like I have to defend myself," Tyler tweeted yesterday. "1. I don't know who the fuck Steve Albino is. 2. I don't 'Nigger everything in sight' 3. I never say fuck u to drivers. 4. We (Odd Future) never discuss how much we are making a show in public, ever. 5. Me nor anyone I know in my age group know who you are, old ass. Surprised you knew how to use a computer."

Chicagoist has more on the so-called “hot beef,” including this parting shot from Albini: "For what it's worth, that dude's voice is really cool, and they seem to be enjoying the ride. I didn't enjoy being around them, but that's hardly newsworthy." Oops, looks like the donkey is falling back asleep. [Via Spin]

I'm going to lose your faith forever, but...

...fuck Odd Future. They're not worth the hype spent on them.

[FiddySpence]

you don't strike me as a hip hop fan, so that's fine.

[FiddySpence]

and thinking they're overrated is one thing, but finding them offensive or going on a blog to shit on them is another.

[inmytree]

I don't like much hip-hop, but I like I've got a handle on the basics. Granted, my favorite groups tend to be the late 80's, early 90's acts (Public Enemy, etc.)

I'm okay with offensiveness in music, but I feel like you've got to earn it. Otherwise, you're just a hack trying to get a headline. I don't know if I'd go that far with Odd Future, but to my ears they're closer to the latter than the former.

i disagree, and think there's a lot of depth to what they're doing not that far underneath the violent imagery. plus, from a production and flow standpoint they have an insane amount of talent.

can you really watch this and not be impressed?



edit: skip to around 1:00 in

the fucking talent it takes to get a crowd going like that...

plus you don't want to be on the same side of a topis as that fat fuck Dero

I'm never on Dero's side. Even if I am on his side.

I met him a week or two ago at a movie screening. Ugh, just as I'd imagined he'd be.
