Hey 20-somethings...what's with all the synths?

uhhh surely neither of those are garage rock?

2nd no, 1st sure! why not?

it's just a different garage is all

thing about garage proper is there's only one garage, it's not exactly the most open-minded form

i know, i've been a garage fan since milkshakes/nomads years. if the dirtbombs can cover old detroit house tracks, then synthpunk can be revisted as "garage rock". otherwise it IS stagnant bullshit, and fuck that.

1st wave hozac shit = doing something interesting w garage rock, and i'm all in favor of that

synthpunk can be revisted as "garage rock". otherwise it IS stagnant bullshit, and fuck that.

uh, no, just because the garage rock umbrella doesn't cover synthpunk that sounds nothing like garage rock (punk is not garage rock) doesn't mean that garage rock is "stagnant bullshit."

okay, maybe not, but it does feel like it sometimes

I can't wait till jazz is suddenly popular again and there are like, four bands left in the whole world, because 1) no one knows how to play anything, and 2) no one knows how to be in a band and communicate with actual human beings 'irl.'

haha how do you go from this to dissing ppl who have been irrelevant for 20 years
