"It’s such a lowbrow move from a highbrow band. I’d expect shitty pop punk bands with no artistic merit like Fall Out Boy and Panic at the Disco to pull that crap (which let’s be honest they probably also did). Not the critically acclaimed indie darling with Pitchfork cred and cool hipster points."



rumor has it Pete Wentz also slept with Nicole around the same time but ofc he'd hardly get cancelled lmao

And, ironically, all that matters too.

“the only thing that matters is the quality of music



I hope bands I hate get caught up in misconduct scandals so their reputation can take a hit and public backlash can make me stop hearing their shit. Sadly, I haven’t been served in that manner that much, really. Falling in Reverse suck but they haven’t even really been ‘cancelled’.”

Fuck this mindset. This thinking is exactly what allows bands to continue taking advantage of their fans. We shouldn’t pick and choose which bands to condemn and which bands to continue listening to. While Brand New were one of my all time favourite bands, I had no issues dropping them after the allegations came to light. I’d do the same with any other band who's music I enjoy, as well, since that’s the least important thing in the grand scheme of things.

i guess the only thing stopping pete and others from getting cancelled is that their rumours dont have a lot of publicity right now; like there hasnt been an explosion of trending hashtags and headlines, just lowkey whispers getting passed around, albeit to everyone. brings to mind the allegations against the red hot chili peppers; the way those guys behaved back in the day, it was obvious they did some shit that isnt ok by today's standards (and y'know they had that one song). but for whatever reason the story hasnt gone viral and until it does, their reputations are safe.

yeah, baron is straight up saying he hopes women are abused/sexually assaulted/taken advantage of in hopes that he won't hear that band's music anymore when he's out grocery shopping. what the actual fuck

I remember him saying that he wanted something to come out about Imagine Dragons just because someone came out about Brand New as well as that he wished he could shoot the guy who started the thread encouraging people to come forward about Lacey and ruining Brand New's legacy.

I’m pretty sure this is his Twitter, too: https://twitter.com/baducci_NFL

yeah idk for some reason I feel like even if such an explosion did happen it wouldn't really matter I don't think the core fob audience would give a shit and given that it happened with the same girl it would probably always be overshadowed by Jesse's story



also didn't the RHCP frontman admit publicly about sleeping with underage groupies and shit?

it's also pretty widely known that jimmy page and david bowie had plentttty of intercourse with teenagers, but this standard only applies to Brand New and Jesse Lacey's skype nudes lmao



Selective anger is what we call this

There's a lot of shady shit that went down for decades in the music scene. It wasn't until social media though that a lot of it came to light.

Last night I watched some footage from my first and only BN show, approximately two weeks before they disappeared forever. God damn it was magical. I would’ve hated myself forever if I didn’t make that drive to Detroit

this assumes that everyone who spoke out against jesse is also aware of the allegations against bowie, page, and others. i certainly wasnt. i think most ppl arent; the info is certainly out there but that doesnt mean everyone knows about it. this kinda #metoo public outrage is probably more determined by the publicity of the allegations than some sort of weird collective hypocrisy that's impossible to evidence.
