X - "Suck Suck"
From the album X-Aspirations
(January 1980)
Last song scrobbled from iTunes at Last.fm
"At about the same time as the Los Angeles band X was hiring civil liberties lawyers to keep the police from bashing in the heads of their fans, an Australian band who knew nothing of the American X's existence was laying down hard and primitive chords under the same name. The black-and-white cover of their debut album X-Aspiratons also featured a large letter X that seemed to be burning: 1979 must've been a big year for crosses on fire. It was a time in music when traditions were gleefully burned. (Australian) X sing about 'Delinquent Cars' and how much of a waste going out at night is, in sore-throated shouts over groaning bass chords, incessant drum beats, and fuzzy drips of melodious guitar. Their lyrics are light-hearted but not light-headed, and their sound is almost primitive, echoed drum pulse and harmony-less singing. Most Americans never got to hear the stop-and-start deep surf chords of their 'Batman' or the crawlingly slow slink of their bass. But then, most Americans never got to hear any of the noncommercial music of the late '70's. . . ."
--Andrea Enthal, Spin Magazine, December 1986
30 years passed, yet I never forgot this passage, or this band, and now I've finally heard them. It was pretty much worth the wait.

i didn't have "i'm broken" teenage asexual angst i had "i'm literally being the only reasonable one about this concept and the rest of you are behaving like fucking freaks" perception issues
cant tell you how bad it feels to constantly tell other artists to come to tumblr, because its the last good website that isn't fucked up by spoonfeeding algorithms and AI bullshit and isn't based around meaningless likes
just to watch that all fall apart in the last year or so and especially the last two weeks
there's nowhere good to go anymore for artists.
edit - a lot of people are saying the tags are important so actually, you'll look at my tags.
#please dont delete your accounts because of the AI crap. your art deserves more than being lost like that #if you have a good PC please glaze or nightshade it. if you dont or it doesnt work with your style (like mine) please start watermarking #use a plain-ish font. make it your username. if people can't google what your watermark says and find ur account its not a good watermark #it needs to be central in the image - NOT on the canvas edges - and put it in multiple places if you are compelled #please dont stop posting your art because of this shit. we just have to hope regulations will come slamming down on these shitheads#in the next year or two and you want to have accounts to come back to. the world Needs real art #if we all leave that just makes more room for these scam artists to fill in with their soulless recycled garbage #improvise adapt overcome. it sucks but it is what it is for the moment. safeguard yourself as best you can without making #years of art from thousands of artists lost media. the digital world and art is too temporary to hastily click a Delete button out of spite
learning that self deprecation isnt cool and just makes the people around you uncomfortable unironically improved my mental health a lot. like if you just stop saying negative shit about yourself you will genuinely like yourself more and other people wont be repulsed by your attitude and you will have more friends. it's true.
