Fuck this malign whimsy in particular. Egregious misuse of Rickenbacker. I didn't think it was possible to reappropriate an anti-anti-racist anthem more offensively than Kid Rock did

It's not our *thing* or anything, but I love Round and Round. We need more harmonized leads in the world. The only way people get away with this anymore is doing so ironically and/or in pursuit of getting on the next season of Peacemaker www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jZ9...

Sometimes I wish we weren't so committed to having a good time with our fans
Four-panel monologue from Nine Inch Nails singer Trent Reznor. Transcript:

TRENT: "How are you tonight? Having a good time? Ready to party? Have fun? Well that was the last guys. Wrong fucking band. We're here to have a bad time." (reaches out of frame to play synthesizer)

Aww fuck Brian Wilson died. I get that not everybody enjoys the Beach Boys and if you know them mostly for songs about surfing you probably don't think much about em. But Brian might have done more to substantiate the magic of music than anybody who came before him

The most bewildering example of this for me was when Laetitia Sadler of socialist French band Stereolab briefly said she was a Jordan Peterson fan, before learning more about his views and walking it back

Today is famously "The Day the Music Died". I hope that I don't die in a plane crash and if I do I hope that photos of me exist where I'm not performing a novelty song

The world contains multitudes and art is deeply subjective. That said I am unsettled by the existence of Weird Phishes, a Radiohead tribute that plays covers in the style of Phish

Thank you Google! Very helpful!
Shame Penguin is a rock band with songs like "Hive", "Pretzel Time", and "Sam Jackson": 
 
Sound: Some say Shame Penguin's sound is a mix of northeast emo, psychedelia, and eclecticism. 
 
Where to listen: You can listen to Shame Penguin on Apple Music, Spotify, and SoundCloud. 
 
Description: One reviewer described Shame Penguin's sound as being like "if The Meat Puppets had a baby with Sonic Youth and then sent that baby to go live with Nada Surf at Iggy Pop's house". 
 
Song "Fall of the Mountain King": Rockmommy.com says this song mixes catchy riffs with complex daddy issues.
