Why hasn’t anyone ripped this dude apart for having the worst fake british accent this side of Billy Joe Armstrong?

Rooooooiiiiight!!!!

I’ll bet my left testicle homeslice doesn’t sound anything like the vocal tracks on his albums. Weak.

Plus, the Soft Boys did this about twenty times better [the vocals, that is]

first of all, i haven’t been to this site in probably like ten years. my friends mom brought back some shit from amoeba records, and it had an article about buddyhead’s return. welcome back.

haven’t heard the record. i’ve seen jay reatard pretty much yearly for the last five or so years in some form. i’ve only seem him go apeshit on a guy once, and it’s because the drunkenly ran into his guitar, and then his momentum carried him into his amp. he had the guy pinned on the ground and was smashing the v of his guitar over the guy’s neck. it looked a lot worse than it was, because he wasn’t actually making contact. this happened at sxsw a couple years back, and well that was the only time i’ve ever seen it. really though, aren’t we all a little tired of dealing with that one d-bag that jumps on stage and does jumping jacks for ten seconds while running into all the musicians trying to play songs. i am.

also…

it must be noted, that both times they have played chicago (empty bottle NYE, bottom lounge) in the last few months, they have been super nice.

everything thinks jay is this huge asshole, but it’s the exact opposite.

super swell dudes.

curly haired homeboy told me about his paralyzing as a kid for my video i’m putting together.

radness.

The “bad” promotional photo is an insincere tribute to Jack Nicholson’s role in the Shining.

Julian,

You loveable simpleton, I want you to know that your battle with global aphasia is not something that you should be ashamed of. Communication is going to be a key element in the development of our friendship and since you are having so much fucking trouble understanding the gist of my posts, I will now attempt to limit all of our future communication to profane neologisms, Method Man lyrics and emoticons:

Yo fucktard,

Look at your bitch ass, snitch ass, about to get a kicked ass…get mad? Get smashed.

8-)

You got that, Jewels?

Peace,

The Bu-Tang Clan

Julian, chill out, man. Douse that aggro. Your boy Buford gave a succinct rundown of Jay Reatard’s reaction to my review. He also took a witty jab at me and stated that he liked Jay’s album, so I’m not seeing him as a kiss ass.
