there's only one Nation of Ulysses
>>130229958That guy pre-emptively metoo'd himself and permanently ended his career lmao
>>130230028elaborate
>>130230028What a dope, as if this band is big enough that anyone would care. They are a good band though.
>>130229958Refused blatantly ripped them off
>>130230028he always seemed absolutely insufferable to me as a person yet I dearly love every single music project he ever done, Make Up, Weird War, Chain and the Gang, etc so much great stuff, currently digging his minimal synth pop project Escape-Ism a lot
>>130233517>REEEEE insufferable!LOL the MAGA trash have apparently switched their catchphrase from "woke" to "insufferable!" (that's come up like 3x times, most recently in the Curt Kobain thread).At first I was like "why is anon screeching about insufferable?" and then I read the wikipedia page:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Nation_of_Ulysses"Nation of Ulysses was known for their far-left politics"LOL what a bunch of woke libs. utterly insufferable!
>>130233660that said, 13-Point Program is a kickass record, listening now.
>>130233660you sound insufferable and the reddit spacing doesn't help.
>>130229958Is it Ireland?
>>130233747Cooked his ass
>>130233437How does Ian actually feel about this? I don't recall him making a public statement or writing about it. Was it because they were Swedes that he showed restraint?
>>130233805Nation of Ulysses wasn't the only band Refused ripped off, and I'm sure Ian Svenonious could wax poetic about all the bands he's ripped off. Also, I'm sure all this "Who ripped-off who?" talk led to more people listening to Nation of Ulysses over time. I hear Ian MacKaye is good at making sure every Dischord Records artist gets paid royalties for every album sold every year, and Nation of Ulysses is one of the bands who seems to get their records repressed periodically due to how popular they are. I'm sure Ian Svenonious is doing just fine, in this regard.
>>130233660Ian Svenonious is a rapist abuser and therefore not left-wing no matter what he says
>>130233960kinda funny that dennis lyxzen's next band totally ripped off The Make Up's whole style and swag, far more egregiously I would argue, Svenonius has a right to feel a type of way about that one lol
Svenonius knows every sex club, after hours crawl, hidden tunnel and secret passageway in DC and he'll go to the grave never revealing an entrance to a single one. That's why they're mad, Christopher Columbus of punk.
>>130229958Svenonius stole the mic in mouth thing from Gira and MUs sound from Mitch RyderRich kid with Harvard grad parents who thinks he's punk
I tried multiple times, and this band bores the shit out of me.
