[Homunculus1510]

I met the war on drugs tonight and they were pretty nice, but their hair is long so i hope they don't have lice.
Stupendo. Applausi.

[Azrael1793]

totalmente folle, totalmente geniale

[toolipano]

sono scoppiato a ridere a crepapelle 5-6 volte durante la canzone!

[simoirs]

Ovvia canzone dell'anno pure le doppie voci, spettacolo.

[wounder]

E' un genio ed è il mio idolo. Certo, negli ultimi anni mi pare la sua vena di figlio di puttana si sia accentuata... Anche a Padova l'avevo trovato bello incazzoso

io invece mi sono trovato molto d'accordo con l'editoriale di questa Meredith Graves su Pitchfork, ma son temi che mi interessano particolarmente ultimamente

un saggio di un giornalista fan di Kozelek che rimane deluso dal comportamento nei confronti dei poveri War on Drugs.

Il testo.

We were up on stage I heard a classic drum fill
Blasting 100 decibels over the hill
It was getting pretty loud, I asked who it was
A guy in a raincoat shouted back "They're called War on Drugs"
It sounded like basic John Fogerty rock
I said "This next song is called The War on Drugs can suck my cock."

Suck my cock, War on Drugs (x8)

We were playing a show down in Chapel Hill
To a bunch of drunk hillbillies, and it smelled like swill
Microphones didn't work, the staff couldn't give a fuck
The crowd was getting out of hand and I told them all to shut the fuck up

All you rednecks, shut the fuck up (x8)

Someone got offended and wrote a piece of crap
Some spoiled bitch rich kid blogger brat
She posted some graffiti done by some half wit
Who thought my name was "Sun Kil Moon," what a dumb shit

Sun Kil Moon, go fuck yourself (x8)

I met War on Drugs tonight and they're pretty nice
But their hang is long and greasy, hope they don't have lice
I heard them do their soundcheck, next to the birds (Byrds?)
They're definitely the whitest band I've ever heard

The whitest band I've ever heard is War on Drugs (x8)

There's war!

They're playing the Fillmore tonight, and it's sold out
Bridge-and-tunnel people are people too, this is their big night out
They smoke a joint with their buddies on their way in their cars
They're gonna rock out tonight to some good commercial lead guitar

Bridge-and-tunnel people love them some War on Drugs (x8)

War on Drugs, suck my cock / War on Drugs, beer commercial rock (x2)

War on Drugs loves Fleetwood Mac
War on Drugs loves Mellencamp
War on Drugs, let's give 'em a cheer
War on Drugs, to make three albums took 'em nine fucking years

(Applause)

War on Drugs suck my cock (x11)
(OK, so it's gonna just gonna fade out)



Fantastico.

Il vero capolavoro di Kozelek continua

I mean, to be fair to that idiot, what he said in that song… I didn’t really have a problem with any of it until I heard the song. First of all, he never met us, and yet said all these things. He’s such a douche. I asked somebody if I could get his e-mail, because I wasn’t trying to start this stupid Twitter thing, I was just bummed. I went to a mutual friend who explained that he wouldn’t give out his e-mail address. So I just got an e-mail through this friend that said "Mark wants to come to the Fillmore, he will write a song called 'War On Drugs Suck My Cock', you back him up on it and he gets to play 'Beer Commercial Guitar', then you back him up on one of his songs, 'Dogs', from his new album. And then he plays 'Beer Commercial Guitar' on one of your songs."
We were on tour and I thought "this is actually a pretty cool idea, I don’t have anything against this guy, this is cool." So I was really excited and was gonna write him back in a couple of days, 'cause I was busy at the time. Then two days later I get an e-mail back from him, saying "the offer has expired, maybe when I get home from tour I’ll go to Starbucks and buy your record." I was like "you’re such a fucking prick, dude." He was such an asshole, I didn’t even say anything. Then he goes to the internet and he "challenges" us to this thing, but I was like "you fucking prick, you already said 'No'!" He’s such a fucking child. And then the song is just idiotic, he’s just a fucking idiot. I don’t have time for idiots. I’m just pissed that he tried to make it come out like he was challenging us. I had already essentially agreed to it, and then the Starbucks comment…what the fuck, dude. Get over your fucking self.
