Morrissey finally found a cross worthy of him dying on.

Those lyrics suck

by **Real Real Real** » Mon Jun 24, 2019 11:20 pm

"If borders are such terrible things then why did they ever exist in the first place? Borders bring order."

and people ask "why do you hate on everything?" Luckily, I don't believe in order, so I don't feel like I deserve this having had so much attachment to so much of his oeuvre through time.

Bad news, the last Belle and Sebastian album was called Iron Cross and about a heroic(their words) brigade of World War II veterans.

glad i never got that smiths tattoo

by **Beautiful Jugdish** » Tue Jun 25, 2019 7:54 pm

the smiths are a phenomenal band and i feel zero remorse supporting them even as morrissey slides into dementia

by **Beautiful Jugdish** » Tue Jun 25, 2019 7:54 pm

the smiths are in fact the greatest band of all time and i am not taking questions at this juncture, thank you.

It's really good and also very encouraging to see Nick Cave giving a masterclass in white privilege all in defence of fucking Morrissey.

My message to any Smiths fans feeling betrayed by Morrissey is to join us in the REM pool. Water's fine!

by **odilon redon** » Fri Jun 28, 2019 7:01 pm

all of these ppl are pseudo intellectuals with insane amounts of ego and self-regard resulting in total myopia, which are pretty much required traits for becoming a pop star, no one should expect their musical talent to translate in any single other area of intelligence

Question for Smiths fan: What was the earliest incident of Morrissey expressing an explicitly racist viewpoint?

by **avenue** » Fri Jun 28, 2019 7:25 pm

The song “Bengali in platforms” > flying the Union Jack at Madstock > “the Chinese are a subspecies”

I saw him at a Q & A/solo concert thing earlier this year and some kid asked a wholesome question about how Nick Cave felt about the recent metoo movement, and how fans should deal with their musical idols turning into horrible people.

Nick Cave responded aggressively about how he couldn't think of one example in the music industry and repeatedly asked the kid to provide examples. The kid was clearly caught off guard and was forced to rollback his question by Cave, who then left the stage, cutting the show short by 30 minutes or so.

I assume Cave made a logic leap and thought the kid was referencing his son Jethro who bashed his girlfriend & then threatened to kill her. But I left that gig thinking Cave was a fucking muppet.

It’d hurt way more to lose Cave but I’m ready.

Jesus fucking Christ, Morrissey
