Middle Fingers Up: The ATTILA Thread

That all said, this band is certainly more INTERESTING than, like, Parquet Courts. But I'm not exactly sure I'm ready to call them "good."

I guess this stands up in the sense that Parquet Courts have morphed into a band that could not possibly be less interesting, but at least they don't seem like reprehensible people who deserve syphilis.

What do you think of King 810, Van Gorp?

Taking into account that I still worked for Roadrunner when they were first signed...I like them. I think David Gunn is a good writer who comes up with some really great lines, and the band is capable of different sounds - they do the ultra-heavy nu-metal thing, but they also do semi-acoustic folk-country material really well. Also I like the fact that they're so relentlessly local and fixated on basically one subject: the shittiness of life in Flint, MI. I haven't heard the whole new album yet but I like the songs I have heard.

They are interesting in a very Chuck Eddy way, like anything mook that has kinda trash aesthetics and is anti respectable and throws around genre signifiers and exists at some nexus of metal and hip hop or electronic and b yh all means most importantly can be used as Whiney just did as a way of tweaking some brand name respectable indie band, but I dunno like in this day and age 21 white dudes being assholes seems like literally the most boring shit ever and morally vacant and honestly this music just fucking sucks

Do you demand respectability and moral responsibility from all musicians, or just young white men?

No but it's like ok limp bizkit with slightly different metal and hip hop influences seems profoundly BORING I'll retract my moral comment because i don't and I feel like you're one post from dropping an "sjw" comment...

And I literally think this is worthless as music

Well that's bloody nitpicking innit?

Just got the advance of the full album. So far, it's everything I hoped it would be. There's a song called "Let's Get Abducted" about aliens.

do they cover ''holy moses''?

The tour that will be reinventing and redefining mosh pits just got even more devastating!

They're only playing the Observatory? Smaller venue than I would have thought. (It's theater rather than club sized but still.)

quick someone light a match

New album out tomorrow. They haven't changed a bit.

This song came out last year and is not on the new album.

I have no doubt that these guys have enough money to live well, but the house in the video looks like a suburban orthodontist's house instead someplace where a metal band in Atlanta would live

I've been to a few modern metal band dudes' houses - they all seem to buy these generic McMansions when the money comes in.

New song sucks. Lyrics, for anyone who cares:

Don't give a fuck about the guidelines
Don't care bout pleasing all of you
I wanna watch the fucking world burn
I wanna burn you too
Push me to the edge cuz I welcome death

I don't wanna hear that smack
I don't even roll like that
Rather grab a rope and tie you up no slack
Better get back for I rack your ass
You can count on that WHAT
Wanna feel your brains, slice your veins
Toss you into the lake
I could take you out with no remorse
And bitch I won't even blink

Kiss the blade
Bite the curb
Maybe we should overdose
Say the word
I know you wanna watch me die
Watch me hurt
But legends always stay alive
Mark my words

Everything I see is red
Everything I see is dead
Bitch you know I need some head
Better keep me fed
Better make some bread
'Fore I spray this lead UH
I'm sick and tired of dreaming about the end I never know what's really real till the Bullet is in my head

All these days spent thinking of death
I'm gonna stab a fucking hole through your god damn chest
I want to see you fucking struggle till there's nothing left
I wanna put you in the grave I wanna take your flesh
I wanna wear your face

You will never cancel me I know you're just an enemy and if you're not a friend of me then you won't make the end of me
You wanna make me fucking break
But I've got nothing to take
Grab you by the throat and shake
Wanna feel your neck break motherfucker what
EEEEEEEEEEEEE
Get fucked
I wanna smash your fucking face in
