Dan Boeckner (of Wolf Parade) and Lex Walton are here for a roundup of the grim state of the music industry. We discuss the various nepo babies and heiresses crowding out the field, the rise and proliferation of AI music, and the ugly end of millennial hipsterdom with the shuttering of several indie music publications.

I say all the time that Savage was ironically right, liberalism IS a mental disorder

ploob

Wooh!

nick schultz

I heard that the more you don't listen to it, the longer it gets.

Mikey

When does Felix begin sleeping?

Joe D’grinda

Any album recommendations for either band ?

etienne

M83 - Hurry Up We're Dreaming and Washed Out - Within And Without and you're going to spontaneously grow a moustache, a fixed gear and a plaid zip hoodie

Des Mosome

Canada has joined the Axis of Resistance.

helvetica.hottie

It is so refreshing that I pay no attention to any of the chapos' internet presence except for Felix on Insta because for all I know the boys are well beloved and otherwise unknown.

Jim Storrie

if you stop mid-way felix's bit about jerking off respawns and you have to do it all over again

mckinley faas

Welcome to the dirty South, I'm the one you heard about That white boy from the 'Ville that blew up from nuthin' but word of mouth I ain't got no single no potential for the radio I just got the hood behind me on top of a crazy flow I'll let that .380 go, better let your lady know It's a drought and I got more white than the Slim Shady show Hold on let me stop a second shoot back to the top a second How the fuck you pop bud he ain't never drop a record Yeah they say it's smooth is, the way that I moved it Pull up in the new benz, the color of a blue ten Talkin' about a blue tint really I need five 'cause Just to ease my mind I need at least three at a time for real

lordnykon

M83 albums - before the dawn (teen angst, moon child, lower your eyelids) / Saturdays youth (listen to the whole album), Hurry Up (intro, midnight city, Steve McQueen, but really the whole album is great)…. Yes there one of my favorite bands I’ve seen 8 times.

Jeffrey Epstein's Assassin

Just listened to Ultimate Love Forever. Fantastic! Great episode too. If Dan Boeckner's on it's gonna be a good time

Carter Kriss

the Michael Caine story reminded me of John Harbaugh saying he didn't allow his players to eat chicken because "they're a nervous bird." he got made fun of for it and eventually adopted a few chickens and raises them now lmao

Nick

We as a species might just not deserve art

Wes

Felix: Canada is fake and gay Dan Boeckner: haha ya totally we totally are lmao This ep if previous Boeckner/Canada eps are any indication

Ross Moore

If that baby doesnt grow up to assassinate all US presidents going forward brace better ask for his cum back

Agent Grange

Damn six and a half hours of Spencer with Felix has only trained me to lament his absence.

Agent Grange

When does Spencer start speaking?

Conner

Now people are mad at Hasan for doing an article in harretz

Travis

Felix begins speaking at 7 minutes and 38 seconds

Internet jones

Choosing between jelly roll and the joy division tribute band is a pretty mean indictment of millennials lol

Caleb Palma

Man this is embarrassing

THEKILLERWHALE

I think their is a legitimate critique of music nepo-baby, and it is not that they did not do the work. I was a musician until my 30's and dropped out before becoming fully professional, whereas my best-friend and partner kept on and is now a fully professional musician. To me, music is a primarily social activity, separate from the economic sphere. It was a way to hang out with my friends when I was younger and became the locus of a social grouping as we got better and had a proper music scene. The professional aspect only came in when the hard reality of life made us need to decide if we could try to make money off of this. I said no, he said yes, and it fundamentally changed how he approached music. To be rich is to be separate from authentic community. Wealth buys you distance. The critique of nepo-babies to me is not that they are bad musicians or skipped technical steps, but that they skipped the social steps. They could never just be part of the furniture and invariably parachute in to an established community (or relate to no community at all) and treat music as an economic pursuit, and not just a way to hang out with your friends. As I pointed out with my friend, poor musicians have to make this adjustment too if they want to eat, but the point is that they honed these skills as part of a community as part of a tradition that goes back through all of human history and they carry that authenticity, at least for a while.

Eamon Short

Thanks for getting me in trouble with that thumbnail.

Overzealous Euthanasiast

Need more musics people on more, it's good for the soul! Vincent Bevins can wait, he's super patient anyway! 😉 With the t-shirt bit, have had similar kinda musings though with "patriotism is a mentall illness" on there instead, but the ppl that's aimed at are a smidge more hungry for any excuse to indulge their violent cravings. Maybe if the words under it are "state-mandated to blunten your critical thinking" it may allow a moment of anxiously pointing and reading it out as if it gonna make a difference as the reactionary approaches. All else fails, boot em in the nuts and leg it laughing maniacally at the last distraction of opportunity. - - -- -- - - - in maga """"music artist""""" world, there is no more prominent example of industry plant than Tom McDonald and all his stolen backing tracks, but nobody watered him and developed a bio symbiosis with a fungal infection to sustain himself instead (lack of sleep starting to makes things veeeeery tricky for typing now, apologies if this becomes nonsense to the well slept sober observer lol)

Eamon Short

12:36 Haven't had a Matt poem I'm a moment, so Felix comes in clutch with the poetics.

Philip Malcolm

I will never forgive the harrying of the north

Overzealous Euthanasiast

If you haven't already, and if you like Gary Oldman, he directed like one film he still hasn't made back the cost on about his working class upbringing called Nil By Mouth, it's insanely authentic as someone who grew up in similar environment. Also stars Kathy Burke and Ray Winston as the main couple.

Overzealous Euthanasiast

Have been saying for a while we need the rage and disgust back in music, my housemate show me this boy called Jesse or something with a guitar who they like, but he just doing Bob Dylan, and all due respect to either person but our current times will not be emotionally summarised and riposted by Bob fucking Dylan lol - this is the gaping maw our self annihilation while obscenely dirt rich fascists saturate our airwaves and block any attempts to fix a single thing including ongoing live streamed genocide and escalating war crimes while they ferment hatred for the most vulnerable in society, the silent scapegoats to gawp at while blood money and vital public assets are funneled into the bank accounts of the most inbred white eugenicist families who don't even try to hide it. Bob ain't doing it no matter what younger body he somehow possessed. Also while am hear making requests, or whatever, we need more swear words, they're a harmless venting mechanism yet quicky lose effect after short repeated use. Yes I've slapped the last of the nicotine patches on last bit of skin! Sorry doctor! (Just. A couple. More promise!)

Jethro Mojave

Is Boeckner still with Arcade Fire

Mia

If this album goes huge then the record industry is gonna be trying to make copycat trans rock and rollers and baby that is my comeup

Yarblockos

Felix saves the day again

Cascadia Breadloaf

Damn yo where did you get all those crazy African styles and influences?

Brock Conrad

You guys should get the lead singer of Alien Ant Farm on next. He’s a great reply guy

HuffingGasInTheShed

What does a stripper do with her asshole before she goes to work? Take him to band practice

Will

The Jesse signals address bit made me bark laugh

Throw Away

I’m also yelling at the hellp but because they’re dogshit lol

Sam

When I worked at Dunkin in the mid-00s I would use CoinStar to turn the change we got for tips into Amazon gift cards and spent virtually all of it on CDs. Once and a while I’d buy an album knowing nothing about it other than that I liked the cover, and going in cold listening to M83’s “Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts” blew my 16-year-old mind. More instrumental and experimental than their later stuff, which is also good.

Anomalie

listen to Street Sects

Liz

Local cable lives

Hailey

Chapo Traphouse coming to Charlottown PEI is sooo fucking funny

Delapore Media

Thank you for introducing me to Lex Walton. Awesome sound. Feels like the same family tree as Cop Shoot Cop. Also, every time the boys bring up Song of Ice and Fire in any way I'm going to post that George R.R. Martin is 77 years old, he hasn't published an update to the series 2011, and you will never get a new book.

AB

Once again re-upping my Patreon membership because Felix mentioned Brand New

Lynn Waldon

I always thought I'd be like a cool musician type but I'm actually an I'm an obsessed with reading history books type

Hardcore Virgin

Lex Walton good Felix mic quality this episode = toilet

Alex C

Lol what's the speculation on Will being a fascist? Must be some anarchist shit right

Alex C

Oh its cuz he looks like the crypto fascist in disco elysium

Lee

man I really think that Julian C tear was beyond fucking weird. ‘Yeah I bet he got the shit molested out of him!’ Cool take.

AbsenteeUncle

lol I have Jesse’s home address

Vivi

Lex is awesome and makes great music! Thanks for having her on!!

Big Problem

Harald Fraudrada heads are reeling from this 👆#HerewardtheWoke

etienne

went to check out the Monument to the Victims of Communism in Ottawa because of Dan Boeckner, was worth the walk from the war museum. the stone had no names on it so I assume there are no victims?

Sam

Thats crazy for the Canadian lady to say Lindsey Graham was a father and a husband, he wasnt either of those things lol

BTULTRA

BANKROLLS ON THE TABLE HATING THAT I'M ABLE

Sam

I love when people talk about how AI will usher in all new forms of music. Suno has been around a few years now and I havent heard it produce any sound I’ve never heard before. How long are we supposed to be waiting, exactly?

vansdan

do not start with this album, its really long and boring. their early stuff is way better

Keith

In the Third Dark Age in which we currently reside, if you want to hear music you either have to play it yourself or find someone who knows how to play it. All that digital storage will be bricked eventually.

Sac

Interpol dropped an album today. Felix name dropped them three times. Coincidence????

Eli Navvy

Popped unbelievably hard at the cLOUDDEAD reference

etienne

its got the song about the frog tho

Shiv

Dan Boeckner?! From The Bottlemen?

Lynn

Tfw you realize you too can be considered an "elder millenials"

Jack

probably because his grandfather helped kill trotsky idk

Dan Baggar

we are currently living in a golden age of noise rock. start with Chat Pile and see where that leads you

Glo-Lo

Credit where credit is due: hipster runoff was a funny website I used to read around 2008-2012

swervegriffin

You better talk Stella Lefty, Sombr and Gracie Abrams

josh heffernan

She speaks with a bizarre unearned level of confidence and arrogance

Noah

I laughed and nodded at the aesthetics chat at about 12 minutes. Truly the premier dialectic tension in the 2010s was trans people with anime PFPs vs. Nazis with anime PFPs, whereas today it's craft brewing guys with performative beards vs. Nazi pastors with performative beards.

Shane-A112

he's sending us more messages. clearly.

Hick Rhodes

Chris, if you’re going to needledrop FR David, it’s finally time to get the Crisis Crew on an episode.

nick

Many are outraged at his recent comments that even in a socialist state there should be police

chapotraphouse

was wearing my richard pictures t while we recorded

Penny

Whenever you guys have a trans woman on I feel like a beta fish attacking its reflection. Fine episode.

BIG BONEZ MALONE

i listen to hip hop, funk and blues 99% of the time. The other 1% is Alice in Chains so i have no clue what anyone is talking about on this episode. 10/10 episode and an incredible song name

Alex Koenig

Just listened to the album. Pretty good! Where’s the rest of it?

Sam

I feel like music industry nepotism is a lot harder to pull off than hollywood nepotism. It’s probably mattering less these days, but people actually have to like you and your music to a certain extent. You can pay for exposure but even established artists with industry power behind them regularly flop with new releases. On the other hand, people don’t really have to like a nepo baby to want to see a movie theyre in. No one is deciding to watch or not watch a show because Maya Hawke is #6 on the call sheet

Richard Cochnar

The end of this episode is when I realized that Dan was not, in fact, one of the hosts of American Prestige.

T4Tina

12:23 on the idea that they’re all skinny jeans beard oil guys now: that’s right nerds, and all the rest of you are downstream of the trans chicks like me. You’d better hope I don’t decide to start wearing roller skates and a cock-sock!

T4Tina

Same. I really should finish my dark souls veggies before moving on to news dessert.

Elo

Yeah, the level of confidence around that take felt way too high. Weird is the right word

Jonathan Boud

In regards Washed Out, may I recommend the Life of Leisure EP.

king_von_diesel

When matt first had his stroke, Samantha Bee posted gleefully about it. Gotta remember that the guys are loathed in some corners, mostly by libs.

helvetica.hottie

I'd rather not remember. 🤣 I love the boys

Doug Cartel

There'll be no more dinner bells

Adam Urato

“Some people should be shot” goes so hard in song

Adam Urato

What are you referring to in particular

Adam Urato

Are you for real? Link? I’m not shocked but I can’t find it googling

Orcplow

Porches is a guy who is wealthy but makes pretty good music.

James Oakes

I've always felt like like people were gaslighting me about the so-called "beautiful cinematography in Sinners.

Doug Cartel

Al Jolson is a great reason to hate Lithuania, along with many other reasons

David Lundeen

As another semi-failed musician I came to the conclusion you need 2 of 3 things to make it in the music business 1. Talent/some ability to write and play music 2. Charisma/hustle/salesmanship 3. No other possible career options so you are forced to develop whichever of the first 2 you lack

Doug Cartel

Do you think he's on estrogen? Do you think his penis still works? (Serious answers only here in 4chan)

Dyyyyylan

Wish there was a good archive

josh heffernan

Andrew Callahan? Got me remembering Win Butler

The Master

Suggesting an incredibly niche and provocative interpretation of a piece of work and staking your claim on the title and only being able to point to two songs, a couple of lines of lyrics, before going with “it just feels off.” This is unfortunately a post-literate artist who learned critical analysis exclusively through twitter posting

jenn

alopecia by why mentioned ❤️

PV Hasam

I think it means 'loose lips' as in loose lips sink ships and its referencing snitching

Jake Zydek

Hell yeah! The Canadian guy!

Jacob Calcutt

I believe you’re thinking of John’s weird brother Jim who is also a football coach

Will

I like the second they started talking about music that wasn't rap related Felix just left

Nathan Explosion

just checked out the album. it’s good and worth a listen. i also think anyone complaining about lex’s youthful arrogance is being pointlessly defensive and possibly proving a point about millennials inability to move beyond being the great generational victims of american capital. it’s not that it’s not true, its just that we’ve been punched in the face so many times and not bothered punching back. i think lex is just saying maybe we should. and we still can.

Antoine Desgagnés

The nepo thing plus what Will says about his detractors reminds me of those angry YouTubers who make video against Hasan where the title is always "Cenk Uygur's nephew bla bla bla" because they think this is a truth bomb.

Zen Ben

Good observations. It has the ring of lived authenticity. More people would read it if you paragraphed the text. A wall of unbroken text repels the eye.

The Pissler

Probably would have gone over differently if it had been funny. Just seemed weird?

SquirtSommolier

Everyone knows him from wolf parade, but the Handsome Furs was one of my all time favorites, too.

Ant koz

Hell yeah my ol friend and briefly bandmate plays bass in uniform I think still, sick band, stoked to hear this record. Thanks lex/dan and love to the chapos forever

Caesaro

Oof that music is a tough listen

wavylady

See, he’s right that we are docile and waiting on his orders lol

king_von_diesel

It was on Twitter- i shoulda screen grabbed it for posterity. It def happened around the emergency back in 2023

Dyyyyylan

Mediocre music, pretty good ep

Chuck Finnley

Yes, yes! 12 mins in and I am the sicko in the window saying yes, I have been noticing for years that all these nazi fascist maga chuds, are the recycled leftovers of hypster stylings. Personal theory, hipsters were always as such, there was just some kinda weird cultural mind warping going on that, if someone listens to acoustic music they must be libed up.

Dank Widow

Some of the best protest songs are narrative: see Bobby Gentry

Nathan Explosion

just remember the extra “ny” in bessners name is short for “annoying.”

CBCB

Yeah I thought I misheard that at first

Chuck Finnley

They replaced Charlie with brynden rivers?

Basil

Better than the dnd eps I guess

Robert Dragani

This podcast is my only connection to the outside world

Jordan

Manifesting JC on Chapo

zach

I feel like they started half-joking and then kind of confused themselves into a nonsensical take

ihavecancerjk

Since when was moldbug ever a left leaning hipster who pivoted right?

Begginstrip

I dunno, the production stylings of boeckner and lex’s contemporary voicing sound pretty good to me

rough customer

She lost me on the second “Cam Winter”.

Sexual Harry Potter

It’s hard to get a read on Andrew Callaghan. I don’t think his old stuff was really that exploitative or that his political opinions are cynical, the dude had the perfect opportunity to become Tyler Oliveira and instead he’s voluntarily getting arrested by the IDF and border patrol and getting normies to sympathize with the communist party of Cuba. There’s definitely a VICE style gawking at the margins of society element to the content that made him famous but it seemed like he was just genuinely trying to humanize them, the audience responses to the subjects were for the most part positive and kind. Where he loses me is that now half the shit he posts is like “2 HOUR DEBATE BETWEEN NICK FUENTES AND HAWK TUAH GIRL”. Just absolute rogan-level podcast clip slop completely antithetical to everything that made his traveling interviews good. I think he wants to be hasan piker but doesn’t understand that his talent is getting other people to talk which is wasted on lolcows and villains. Or maybe he just wants to make a bunch of money

Sexual Harry Potter

I feel like almost everyone liked sinners when it came out and then it just aged like lobster and we were sick of it before the Oscars. I enjoyed it, I thought it was a campy fun movie, but once I realized people took it very seriously it was hard not to see it as cringe.

D

Congrats on stirring up the "/r/indiehead" reddit. Hope your album is listened to by a lot of people and they like the music that is on the album. And that you solve the problem of what is hipster.

havanasyndrome

I think I remember Andrew Callaghan making that comment about One Battle After Another and not Sinners. Somehow makes it even funnier.

Mfusion

28 minutes in: Felix has referred to Indonesians three times. I have to go to sleep but I will continue the tally upon next listen.

Declan Kennedy

The discussion around nepo babies is one I think is really important for understanding why so much pop culture is dogshit now. There was a meme like a decade ago about how music was better when ugly people were allowed to make it, but that meme missed the point which is that we need art made by people who are actually living and not just existing in a cloister built from their family wealth. Anyway, had a bit of a listen to Lex's album and it's solid, as a big fan of psytrance BDS has really fucked me so it's good to have something else to listen to

Ben Antony

The album really does rip check it out

S.E. Nyarady

I don't think Is This It? is about Julian C being molested I think it's about his dad molesting the girls Julian wanted to date. Still weird and creepy and certainly would have fucked Julian up. Doesn't preclude him also getting molested but idk

The Hammer Man

Dan participating in a conversation about the embarrassing end of millennial hipsterdom as a current member of Arcade Fire

Agent Grange

Media jobs are the closest thing America has to an aristocracy. Every once in a while, an extremely lucky commoner is granted a lordship but for the most part it's a hereditary title passed on if not through direct plants than through the money and support afforded by having parents who are already in the media field. For the vast vast majority of us, we simply can't afford it. Doubly so if someone else relies on you. Maybe I'd feel differently in a future where there is universal access to liberal arts education and a national sovereign art fund. Until then, the rest of us are stuck working a trade or wage-service-- unless you literally have nothing to lose and can afford to live as a crustpunk hanging around the rest of the gentry until they eventually notice you. At any rate it's more than a little nauseating to hear people who came from media go "actually being born into it isn't that big of a deal if they have the talent." Talent in fact be can be bought with time, money, and proximity at a young age. Some people got lucky. It's the way of the world (for now) and I can accept that without letting it ruin media I enjoy. But don't downplay the opportunity you have that others can't afford.

Caesaro

To each their own of course. It’s just very grating and unpleasant to me

Savannakhet

I mean... The first four Arcade Fire albums were good...

Ben

I think I would like an episode where Felix, Yung Chomsky, and Liz just talk about alt and indie rock of the 2000s. There’s been so many Interpol references, specifically stuff from their first three albums across both shows.

Ben

Saying protest/political songs just not hitting the same anymore because they’re too self serious, too preachy is ignoring the entire folk punk genre… AJJ? Pat the Bunny? The Taxpayers?

Austin Gentry

I like the way Felix says “schizophranic” rather than schizophrenic. Hehe

thom hilton

Anyone know which Julian Casablancas interview Dan Bpeckner referenced?

Nathan

L take from Will, Sinners was great

Nathan

It makes the comment more accurate at the very least, the opening 20 minutes of OBAA were criticized heavily for its caricaturization of black revolutionaries

Nathan

I think it’s cuz he’s been bleeding money from a court case from some wealthy guy who sued him for his depiction in his Dear Kelly doc, so he had no choice but to pump out slop style interviews in order to do the more in depth work without going bankrupt

havanasyndrome

Only really dumb people were making that criticism.

Will

I have been receiving coded messages for some time from Will Menaker, not Felix Bederman repeat NOT Felix Bederman (spelling?)

Whistle Dog

Two great tastes that taste great together 💯

Mr.Movies

Man my inter Patty actually gets mad whenever Felix shits on Ireland 😂

Roger Peet

Serious but not self-serious (and also funny) is something that's been missing from political music for a long time.

Christopher Price

it's very funny that the movie is like white people are vampires who want to steal your soul but soundtrack composer is named Ludwig. the first two thirds is pretty good but the final third is at best camp.

Xi Jinpenis

I'm a half hour in and have no idea what the fuck they're talking about.

Xi Jinpenis

I thought I was going crazy reading the comments. I'm completely lost with this shit.

Gino

DAN FROM WOLF PARADE ON CHAPO?!?! this is truly unexpected worlds colliding

Houthi & the Blowfish

This really hits the nail on the head. My younger days, friends put on annual music/art fests for us to all have fun and be creative. We motivated each other to do great by doing great. Not as a financial pursuit. I have albums that are top-tier but nobody will ever hear them because it wasn't made with that profit motive. You always hated that guy who just tries to write "a hit" and everything else is a "b-side". That collective experience must authentically be lived for it to be foundational in your art. And to go even further, It all really stems from hanging out to smoke weed lol.

Houthi & the Blowfish

I'd skim the till at my plant store job to buy cds. Nowadays kids can't steal anything!

Lee

Yeah - being nervous and trying to land bits ain’t easy. No doubt. I’d say the dumbest shit ever, I’m sure. But goddam, to keep steam rolling it and THEN say, ‘well at least now he’s destroying his looks and dressing like shit!’ That was the ‘he’s already dead moment’. Given what we have seen of his politics, I could totally see J listening to Chapo- in which case, super fuckin yikes. Hopefully they cross paths and it gets laughed off or whatever- but it’s been days and this bizarre comment is still unnerving to me. All I can hear in my head now is, ”laaast night, myyy daaaaddd, well he raped me bad, and I feel left out…” :( not even intending a joke here. ‘Best party album about being molested’ has a dark comedy about it, certainly- and then you connect it to a real person and ugh. No thanks. Even if it were to come out that Casablancas was a piece of shit Predator or something- still such a fuckin strange tangent.

Angela Galiano

"it's very funny that the movie is like white people are vampires who want to steal your soul but soundtrack composer is named Ludwig" man you really cooked with this one

jc

The Fenix Flexin song fits in some way on steely dans gaucho

Klemke

What makes a beard performative VS not performative?

C. Ries

It’s an actuate portrayal of black revolutionaries, they failed

C. Ries

If it’s in an anachronistic style like with muttonchops or a handlebar mustache and shit like that

Joe McNiff

still have one of these tshirts 💪🏻💪🏻

C. Ries

This shit is ass, ban punk music and indie sleazebags

Noah

A performative beard is when you use beard oil. The more oil you use, the performativer it is.

Ted Lavender

WHERE THE FUCK IS PATRICK CARROLL WHEN WE NEED HIM?

Bobi Jon-son Kenobi

Lex was very funny on this episode, I hope her next album captures the sensual and cool sound of a mid-80s Bryan Ferry album

Douglas Yates

Interpol mentioned several times on the eve of the release of a new Interpol record. Dammit chapo who do you work for?!?!?

Ted Lavender

He obviously skipped the read aloud days in school.

Jessica Rios

My ringtone is We Are Charlie Kirk.

Jessica Rios

Luck? Is that a factor too? My brother is still trying to make it and I feel like he’s had bad luck. Or maybe I’m just delusional

Mateba

idk what a subpop is but this album is good

The True Story

Charlie Kirk is hanging with Uncle Buck in the torture cube cenobite dimension wondering when the pleasure is going to come alongside the pain. Pinhead replied "are you counting gang violence?"

drizzly_november

Jesse Wells sucks ass. One of his songs got a lot of play on college radio last year and he rhymes “bomb” with “Vietnam”.

drizzly_november

The fact that this Dan B wasn’t talking over everyone else about post-war liberalism was the first clue.

Redsriding

If I have to listen to Felix talk more I’m gonna commit genital mutilation

Mungo Franczak

Sinners was pretty fucking good, kinda hate it getting written off entirely in this episode with a simple “it wasn’t”

Mungo Franczak

“USA = F*g Nation” was my name on Destiny for like a year until they started cracking down on offensive names

BROKEN JAR

how many albums and movies have you put out tho

PJ Renteria

Sinners is great, Will is just appalling to his base.

Nathan Garvey

Chapo does certainly seem different recently

David Lundeen

I first heard "Rubberz" as somebody's walkout music at a minor league baseball game. I immediately clocked this was a goofy song and had a couple chances to figure out what it was.

ploob

And such small portions!

Borice 19

It's the Chapo Trap House podcast.

Borice 19

The rest of her album did nothing for me, but I kinda dig this one.

Ted Lavender

Don’t know any of the context but that song’s vocals remind me a lot more of “Puttin’ on the Ritz” by Taco.

J O T

Thank you chapo for introducing me to lex walton this has changed my life, the best album ive heard this year. This subscription is goldmine for becoming niche and ahead of the curb, for the ultimate self-aggrandizement experience.

Erik

This is so correct for art in general. Movies were better especially when they had “ugly people” i.e. regular working actors with regular upbringings to draw on for their art getting a shot and not nepos starring in everything.

The Pissler

I know someone who used to date him lol

The Pissler

They’re calling this one of the most incorrect opinions anyone has ever had

The Pissler

I guess I hope that, yeah

Semine

I like the lyrics but I have really come to dislike distorted vocals and vocal effects in general. It is acceptable when its for creating maximum noise but I dont understand why people put distortion on intelligible singing that stays within an octave. Yes that sounds wanky but I am autistic I dont know how to reword it

hrtzgod314

Yeah I think you need to get outside more

Lee

Awesome comment, bro. Changed my life. Thanks so much.

Reagan

This album sucksssss sound more like wargasm

Reagan

This is coming from a 25 years old woman

Caroline James

It never occurred to me that Is This It wasn’t about an assault style situation
