i can't believe death in june is their top selling artist when there are other legitmate things on Soleilmoon
― akm, Thursday, 23 February 2017 21:00 (seven years ago) link
The Soleilmoon thing is weird because as a label they've only released one limited edition 7" by Death In June. Sad that they've released so many great records by Daniel Menche, Merzbow, and the Legendary Pink Dots, and yet Doug P's pathetic Nazi cosplay strum-along is apparently vastly outselling all those.
Boyd Rice would probably brag that he's been trying to "Make America Great Again" since the 1970's.

the artists in question don't seem to have any products listed on the label's site anymore; dunno if that changed since a couple days ago

fucker was selling literal SS insignia for this band and says he's "perplexed"

hope all these legitimate acts take their business elsewhere

sorry I'm just furious that this guy was selling death's head pins and claims to be motherfucking "mystified"

obviously spencer isn't a racist, look how highly he rates BLACK celebration!

trying to remember who it was that recently reiterated that the flirtation with fascist imagery in british late 70s/early 80s acts to be "edgy" was immature and that people should grow the fuck up

...Nevertheless, he maintained that he has been “a lifelong Depeche Mode fan.” It’s a statement borne out by Spencer having done stuff like rank all of the group’s albums on Facebook, his placing of Black Celebration over both Music For The Masses and Violator just one of the many ways in which he is always wrong.[...]While it’s perhaps not on the level of Chris Christie being repeatedly spurned by Bruce Springsteen, or Paul Ryan being forced to delete Rage Against The Machine from his “Getting Pumped” gym playlist and replace it with the death rattles of cancer patients, there is always some small, meaningless sliver of joy in seeing a band telling one of its most devoted fans to get fucked. Now if only someone would forward this to New Order’s Peter Hook.

Hasnt the "DIJ are fascists" thing been a thing for a really long time? No one can act suprised about it now, surely.
― Stoop Crone (Trayce), Friday, 24 February 2017 00:45 (seven years ago) link
you know when you know someone and decide to stop hanging out with them because you told them a certain behavior annoys you, and they keep doing it on purpose around you because they think that's funny? that's the DIJ dude and his SS symbols

lucia diego was on bbc london radio this morning getting the you poor thing sob story treatment from vanessa feltz
diego's performance not esp convincing but she does seem too stupid/remote from the other figures connected to it
enquirers are directed to dm kantbot on twitter, the site is screencap trolling lib responses, someone claiming to be anissimov is on tumblr encouraging a counter-demo tomorrow
something doesnt add up

I know the full details of the conference were kept semi-secret at the time but it seems odd for this to have kicked off over six months later. I'm not even sure there have been any events there since.

re: ld50, it's a weird fucking situation. Diego's statement that the conferences were widely publicized is contested by both the protestors and evidence from a speaker; but if you just wanna hold secret fash meetings, why bother having them in a public space? I'm really confused by what the endgame is here.
― Daniel_Rf, Monday, 27 February 2017 10:26 (seven years ago) link
Read that as ''secret fetish meetings'' and then tred to parse ''fash'' as short for ''fashion'' before finally remembering which bookmark I'd actually clicked on.
