Jesse lacey is the kurt cobain of our era

I hope everyone in this thread forgets their seat belts today. It's pretty icy out there.
 
alright, here's my analogy. this is not to compare the artistic achievement of kurt cobain and monet, but it's the best comparison i can think of

look at these two paintings, the first by monet and the second by leonid afremov, a 20th century painter who's still working today. both are pretty amazing, but i have no doubt that some people would prefer the afremov, his use of rain and light is pretty amazing, and makes for some pretty gorgeous paintings. at the same time, monet's style is one that we've certainly seen more of. but this doesn't justify calling monet a "generic" impressionist artist. afremov's paintings wouldn't exist without monet, and to belittle his work in light of a contemporary shows a clear ignorance of art history, regardless of your personal aesthetic opinion. same goes musically.

this guy sucks, curt kobain sucks, this thread sucks, and the cunt up there who wished people to crash without seat belts sucks as well
 
im hopping in here to express my absolute love for Jesse Lacey :) and Brand New. I play them on radio show quite often. Hype for a new Brand New Album rumered to be on the way as well!
 
He is saying you can't say that Lacey is better than Cobain, because Lacey wouldn't be where he is today without Cobain because of the basis of his musical and visual styles.
 
at this point, your mind is set, and there is no sense in continuing to get to take even a half step backwards, so lets both just settle back into the satisfaction of believe the other person is laughably wrong. but, even though you listen to brand new, even though you refuse to give credit where credit is due, even though you take the "no, nope, no way" approach to arguing, I don't hope you die in a car crash today.
 
Does this Jesse guy have long shaggy hardly washed blonde hair, ripped dresses that he wears on stage, or tried to kill himself multiple times? No. He is not Kurt Cobain. Brand New is pretty good i like their stuff but Jesse Lacey hasn't created a whole new style of music and just is not as awesome as Kurt was.

For all the defenders of Kurt Cobain and Nirvana, in case you don't feel old enough already........

I give you miss frances bean, Kurts daughter is 21 this year. I remember the news of his death on MTV when I was in high school maybe??

Never heard of this lacey guy but I doubt he's a groundbreaking visionary and as talented a musician as one of the pioneers of the grunge movement. I'll do a little research though before I form an opinion.
 
Kobain was withered and boney, exposed for a phony, but we heed the last words that he penned

 
Don't put that on me.

I listened to brand new 10 years ago when I pretty much was a teenage girl. But I long since moved on to better things.

This thread was probably a joke but there are people in here that are arguing it seriously. So much wut
 
God you're retarded. Do you even understand what generic is? Even if you hate it you're calling something that went down a different road generic because a bunch of shitty bands copied that style years after.

DERPPPPPP
 
There we go. No seatbelt song. Whiny 13 year old girl shit. Haven't heard that in a while.

Teenage girls and music is one of the worst combinations ever. You can have your precious bieber.
 
Leik omg no way! Liek Of course she was and I only know that because I used to listen to them when I was a preteen girl.

Lolllllll at all the girls shitty opinions in here. You're all potatoes.
 
Jesus Christ dude, you're such a fucking contradiction. Get over yourself. This is ridiculous.
 
Same album. (I think)

You can think of me when you forget your seatbelt and again when poatoes fly through the windshield. Is that what you call a getaway, tell me what you got away with, I've seen more pretty trippy cool translucent colors in jellyfish, I've beat up and stolen the lunch money from a bunch of 11 year old kids.

Boof another gram and drive yourself home, I hope there's jizz on all the roads and you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt and again when poatoes fly through the windshield.
 
agreed anyone thinking brand new is generic please listen to all of the devil and God and fight off your demons (unofficial release)

must misunderstood band ever, and the best show I've ever been to
 
Who the fuck is Jesse Lacey?? Pretty sure people actually knew who Kurt Cobain was.. Therefore OP's logic is flawed and OP is a idiot. This guy should have killed himself instead of kurt, plus his name sounds like a porn name.

 
What did I put on you?

Did I make you realize that we were both essentially teenage girls 10 years ago?

This thread is definitely not a joke though. That's what I don't get.

 
"and gay guys listen to"

And yeah at the very least some of the arguments aren't a joke which makes me wut. Actually reading the pink names responses gave me a good chuckle.
 
From personal experience, every single one of my gay friends LOVES Brand New. That's how I found out about them. It's a hell of a generalization I realize, but oh well.
 
I'm heaven sentdon't you dare forget

I am all you've ever wanted

what all the other boys all promised

sorry i told

i just needed you to know

this shit got me outta the friend zone!!!
 
hey aren't you that hipster from the other thread whose music is way better than everyone elses? what was it like not hitting puberty until age 18?
 
Curious how old you are?

Granted there are a ton of bandwagoners toward Nirvana...but the music scene of that time even in that genre is completely different than what it is today. Your statement is fairly invalid.

but to each their own.

 
Kurt cobain is the kurt cobain of my era. Plus im from seattle so in conclusion op isthe wrong. Brand new is cool but they are nothing alike. What has brand new done to stand out in any way? They are good but stylistically pretty unoriginal
