I was, as I assume you know, referencing a comment by Steve Earle about Townes and though I agree he's a close second to Dolly, perhaps even her equal, however sadly he died and is thus no longer in the world. Also a lot of his albums sufferered from over production though I don't think that was his fault. Old Hank would have both of them beat. But not by much. kiimo posted:He's dead?

The Dolly we all love is as much of a manufactured lie as any other brand, but it sure is a sweet one.

What did she do? its basically saying no one gets anywhere with just hard work and that everyones success is do in large part to a combination of luck and being born at the right time. So that her image of pulling herself up by the boot straps is a manufactured lie she got lucky meeting the right people and being born when her songs would make her popular. i disagree on the second point because you can always make music you dont particularly like yourself to make sure your music is sold. Ice T is a prime example of this the dudes a loving metal head and he made gangster rap because that poo poo sold. They are also trying to blame her for the practices of the hfe company the runs dollywood. snergle has a new favorite as of 21:33 on Aug 14, 2020 |

Ice Ts best stuff is his Crossover Trash work with Body Count. Their first album in 1992 is genuinely one of the best metal/punk albums of the 90s if you can get your hands on the uncensored version that still has Cop Killer on it.

It kinda goes off the rails towards the end.

People got pissy that Dolly Parton wouldn't say that she is a feminist because, at the time, she thought it was equivalent to being a misandrist. Some folks never let that go and it's kinda pathetic.

It's the same stick that people hit Taylor Swift with a few years ago, 'She smiles and takes the money of people with abhorrent views and lets them idolize her so she must believe the same things they do.'

None of the cast of Parks and Rec have denounced the Pinochet regime so I can only assume that they are all supporters of it. #cancelparksandwreck

Wouldnt surprise me though if they are slowly limiting when you can buy booze what with all the mormons in norcal. Since the Fifties, if not earlier.

NIN lyrics are very sincere, in an embarrassing way. That's why his best album is the Quake 1 soundtrack.

Still like NIN, but mostly listen to instrumental tracks. You gotta take the lyrics with the context. Teen me also thought they were the height of genius.

It blows me away to this day that Trent Reznor created Pretty Hate Machine in a studio that he would clean and sweep up so the owner would allow him to fool around on the equipment.

uber_stoat posted:for Reasons the sega master system and megadrive were massively successful in Brazil in a way that they were not in other places and in fact they still sell a ton of consoles even today. so sega stuff is culturally significant in Brazil to an extent that it is not elsewhere. Perhaps it's an educational programme teaching them Italian (where "sega" means "wank")

There's an NPR Fresh Air interview with him from a few years ago where he talks about how miserable he was, all the time, how he got help, and considers himself a "pretty happy person" now. It's actually a great interview, as he just dispels all of the mythos around the tortured artist equalling a great artist.
