It’s funny how some people think they can tell others how to be "real punks." Honestly, screw that whole formula. I’d consider fighting for a frontal change, but I’m not risking any other pillar of our retirement funds just to satisfy a bunch of washed-up "punks"
Irony (from the Greek *eironeia*, meaning feigned ignorance) is a linguistic figure where the true meaning is either hidden or completely opposite to what the words are actually saying.
It’s essentially a type of dark humor. In many ways, sarcasm and the grotesque are even more intense versions of irony.
I was at an IEEE event in Washington, D.C. recently, and honestly, it was the worst concert I’ve ever been to. The band was just terrible. They felt like a jazz group that decided to play some cheesy pop hits just for the paycheck because they think kids will buy it, then they forced these awkward laughs and tried way too hard to act cool. It was just awful.
Honestly, I think it’s just a couple of digits. I ended up renaming mine to something totally ridiculous like "little kid blood" just for kicks, which actually caught the attention of the police when they were searching an associate's apartment during a case involving some pretty dark satanism and necrophilia charges 😬
I heard Been Caught Stealing at a concert yesterday. It’s such a great track, but honestly, much like The Breeders, I suspect they might just be a one-hit wonder.
Hey, no need to get worked up. I’m not trying to act like some big-shot music critic here. My take is just my own subjective opinion—kind of a picky listener, honestly—and I don't mean any harm by it. Based on the few shows I've caught so far, The Seven Wonders have actually been pretty solid, even if this specific genre isn't usually my thing. But this latest set? It just didn't click for me. I found myself getting pretty bored. Look, it's great that you guys are happy with the results; I’m genuinely glad for you and for any indie band making waves. I’m not going to lose sleep because your band decided to head in a direction I don't vibe with, and hopefully, you won't hold a grudge just because silentmaker wasn't feeling it either.
Like my uncle always says, I'm not quite old enough to be sipping tea, but I can handle a coffee.
Timothy Evans said:@gavrann - when you say that, I know we’re heading in the right direction. You don't even have to show up to the show if you already know exactly what you're in for.
I was actually having a pretty good time, which is why I showed up in the first place. But hey, you guys have another serious band to focus on now, so feel free to mess around in the 7ts group. 😛
