being human is a condition that requires a little anesthesia

‘Innocent even in his hedonism’

real people should feel lucky to be speculated about by me

This era.....holy fuck 🔥🔥🫦🫦

No matter how “sick nasty”, “mad dope” or “masterfully crafted” your LP’s cover art is, it will never match the raw dragon energy on display on the front of Supertramp’s ‘Breakfast in America’

True fact: this cover was such a hit that they hired the model to go on tour with them. She would go on stage in the waitress uniform and introduce the band. Changed her life!

much to disparage the united kingdom for but it can’t be denied that it serves the very important purpose of being a pressure cooker for rock bands with concerning and observable interpersonal issues

I feel like all the "they broke weird al" "weird al got serious we're so cooked" comments about the killing in the name cover are missing the point. that is not a broken man. comedy is politics. comedy has always been politics. weird al has been satirizing politics for a long time because he knows the court jester can say to the king what other people can't. by doing a serious cover of an explicitly anti-establishment song that his gen x and millennial audience knows by heart when he's built his career on parody, he's saying this can't be satirized anymore and he's saying it in a very deliberate way that his audience will understand. those aren't the actions of a broken man, they're the actions of a man who is trying to tell you something. are we going to listen?
