"Best bands of all time"
Bruh they are nowhere near as consistent as some of the REAL best bands of all time, you obviously just fanboying and dont know real music smh
I love the Smiths but thats just facts
you think that broad genre preference can be some sort of stand-in/extension for politics? I could say “poptimism without the class discrimination is the way to go” the way you try to shuffle sexism (while ignoring racism) outside the long history of rockism. I COULD, but I don’t wanna stick my head up my own ass. If anything, any sort of extreme genre elitism is wack to me
nah you're strawmanning.
didn't we have a similar discussion in another thread before? I guess everything has been said there.
@Elric you don’t mind listening to them despite some of the stuff moz says?
He wasn't saying anything too appalling till relatively recently
And I usually separate the art from the artist
The Kinks are the best band have enough classics to run circles around The Smiths whom I f***ing love as well

He said that in his last interview so I said I'm not interested in hearing the new album
Same situation, im not writing off classic Smiths cause Moz is a c*** now and I'm also not gonna check out any of his new music

Maybe if the only thing compartmentalizing your personality is being a sad emo b**** all your life.
If you are a well rounded person hearing sad wailing from the whitest person in existence about what he perceives as drama isnt a pleasant experience
Smiths are a top 5 for me but this cracked me up
Morrissey really a b**** but him over Johnny Marr riffs is an unbeatable combo

I still worship Polanski films even though he's a confirmed child d***ging rapist so I'm not the paragon of PC or very consistent in my ways
Films are different though, there's alot of aspects involved that aren't just the directors psyche unlike music

Nico was a Nazi and we still stan
fr?
Nico was described by some friends and colleagues as racist. Her friend Danny Fields, the American journalist who helped her sign to Elektra Records, described her as "Nazi-esque", saying: "Every once in a while there'd be something about Jews and I'd be, 'But Nico, I'm Jewish,' and she was like 'Yes, yes, I don't mean you.' She had a definite Nordic Aryan streak, the belief that she was physically, spiritually and creatively superior."30 According to Fields, in the early 1970s, Nico attacked a mixed-race woman at the Chelsea Hotel with a smashed wine glass, saying "I hate black people".30
In 2019, Nigel Bagley, who was Nico's co-manager and promoter in Manchester, said he never saw Nico express racist views: "She was in a multicultural city and was good friends with Yankee Bill, our American-Jamaican doorman." Her drummer Graham Dowdall said: "She played an Indian instrument, worked with north Africans, and brought that to her music. She was certainly capable of very casual racism about Alan Wise, who was Jewish, but that was a way of having a go at Al."31
