t-dog scandalizes masses with truthful statement
 
Thurston Moore
1 hr · Edited ·
the full quote for the upset kittens who can't get past the pull quote:
Black Metal is music made by pussies of the lowest order, and we felt it was necessary to investigate this aberrant anti-music behaviour. We feel like the sound and attitude of black metal is a loss of self, life, light and desire in a way where it becomes so negative that a whole new bliss arrives where we become super pussy.

He only says this because his girlfriend doesn't like corpsepaint.

Copied and searched "Black Metal is music made by pussies of the lowest order"

Holy shit. A lot of people care.

You gotta admit, T-dawg's schtick is wearing a little thin lately. Expect a YouTube video of him taking the ALS ice-bucket challenge in 3...2...1...

It sounds like a tongue in cheek comment.

I think I've lost respect for this guy when I read on another forum that he gave a lift to a guy who was on his was to a gig by a musician I happen to respect a lot and apparently he commented that he was ''too crazy''. Said musician mentioned that surely Thurston Moore must have met/interacted with some musicians who were quite out there over the years. Ever since, my impression of him has been that he's more of a square than I had previously imagined, which is a shame, considering some of the beautiful songs he's written.

Who was too crazy?

Toilet & Bowels 08.25.2014 05:19 PM

Anywayz, I guess Thurston had a bad experience recording with Twilight. Which tbh doesn't come as that much of a surprise, it's clear from interviews with BM musicians that those guys have serious problems dealing with the world and cover it up with a lot of dorky but hateful bluster.

I'd be interested to hear him expand upon his statement, but it's not going to change how much I like some of that music.

He seems to be enjoying the Black Metal Music Festival here.... They served good wine....

Damn.

Peterpuff 08.26.2014 06:29 PM

I think taking this quote too literally at face value could be a big mistake...

whorefrost 08.26.2014 06:35 PM

I want some of that wine

Rob Instigator 08.27.2014 08:13 AM

thurston says everything tongue-in-cheek. The same sad sacks that make black metal make noise rock too

TheMadcapLaughs 08.27.2014 02:07 PM

this is the guy who said:

"People of the universe... tonight, tonight will be night that the skies will open and spray forth the divine hand with pointed finger and say, "Everybody, you're not just a duck! -- you are human! YOU ARE HUMAN!" Go forth! Go forth and thrash!"

How can anyone take him this seriously?

You don't remain as productive as he has all these years and not be a high functioning individual -

How am I not a ''functioning'' individual? I'm alive, I do stuff. Get off the drugs.
