Highly disagree, love that album front to bottom. I played it all summer when it came out and still vibrates as a summer album for me. They really went in a lot of new directions they never approached before and never will after. Love the bossa tracks, love the Perry rambling.
Do you realize that words are not always to be taken literally? But it might be a langage barrier, we have an expression that states, basically, to be hanged by public opinion.
The issue with his story is that the main accuser's story, is very shady and was pushed by some shady people in the midst of a well-known investigation. The other accusers were anonymous. I'm again not saying he did or not and that's exactly my point, journalists story can only take you so far. I would want him to be under proper investigation and see what comes up. RE- Decapitation or Conor Oberst as reminded by someone in that thread below.
lol nope, he's pretending to do it while she's pretending to be asleep, during a tour they did for the troops that basically consisted on raunchy jokes to cheer the military up. But I won't bother with more details and let you look into it if you'r interested. In your compassion you just reached full-blown self-righteousness and you don't even realize it.
I would defer you to the Al Franken story, which so far unfortunately did not lead to a proper investigation despite his request, and journalists investigations have been sloppy at best and for which there is ample doubt about some of the accusations (not saying he is or not guilty of what he has been accused of). It cannot stop at journalists verification, it has to go through police work or else I insist, it's detrimental to the movement. Seriously, I'm not saying that's what you meant in any shape or form, but your answer reads as if you don't want these people to be trialed and convicted. Wait for the story to be confirmed by real journalistic sources, get these fucks into trials and jail. Before that anything else you do is jumping in hasty conclusions. How did people react to the Decapitated accusations? If you did express compassion for the false victim, how do you feel about it now? I'm very happy that victims are less and less afraid to come out but I'm very scared that a lot of victims won't see their case properly handled. I'm also seriously tired of people jumping to conclusions.
Your impetus should be "due process", requiring proper journalistic investigation, then police investigation, then trial. Anything less than that will in the end be detrimental to the movement, and I'm afraid it is already.
I also saw them multiple times live and have to disagree with most here, I think their whole attitude looks completely fake and their shows very irritating.
