Just to clarify my earlier statement that seems to be making some people get a little defensive, all I'm saying is that the band is very obviously
full of WP guys and I refuse to give those fuckers a dime of my money. Whether their lyrics are expressly racist or not, they are sending out the
signals that they are a part of that scene. They may have a good sound, but they'll never get any support from me. What any of you wanna do is up to
you, it's your money and I certainly don't expect any of you to consult me before opening your wallets.
I definitely don't feel the need to agree 100% with every lyric or viewpoint that a band has before I can get into them, if I did that I would have
nothing to listen to. I'm sober and I sing along to drinking songs, y'know? I'm aware that some of the bands I like have members with sketchy pasts
and that there are definitely some out there who hold views in direct opposition to my own, but it's one thing to disagree with someone personally and
it's another thing to financially support someone who is an active participant in something like the WP movement. My personal decision for myself, is
that no matter how good a band sounds, if they are clearly involved in that culture they will never get my money. |
