PBR & A Pile of Blow: 2 Bros Who Will Never Let Me Down

Just looking for bros who will never let me down
h8 humans, they are only looking out 4 themselves
no 1 can really be there for you all the time
I learned the hard way (my dad walked out on us)

So hard to trust
just want to escape
2 another world where there are no problems
where life is a party
and u feel like u never want to fall asleep
because something meaningful might happen
after the after party
when the sun begins to rise

I want to chill out with a PBR
a chill ass beer
cheap and tasty
like a lil cheeseburgy at McDonalds

but then I want to ‘get amped up’
without the use of an energy drink
(too much sugar)
but would settle for a different white powder

a huge pile of blow
2 snort in my nose
it will travel up a pipe to my brain
and let my body know ‘it is time 2 party’
and ‘don’t stop partying’
and ‘u r the ultimate bro, living the ultimate life: a party.’

Cocaine saved / ruined my life
People told me I ‘changed’ and ‘had problems’
and I ‘only cared abt partying.’

They just didn’t understand
that I had found the ultimate bros
I was in alt heaven
with a pile of blow
and a PBR

Blow will never die
PBR will never die
Bros will die
I want something that can be there for me forever.

Just wanna be ‘the alt Scarface’
and live on 4ever
in the format of posters
in college dorm room
[via say hello to my lil friend, yall]

*****
Do u have bros who will never let u down?
Are humans flawed?
Do u ever feel alone, like every1 will let u down?
Do u ever feel like u can only trust brands and drugs?
Just wanna escape from the ‘human condish’…

VIDEO: 3 Blipsters get mad blazed and analyze AnCo’s “Brother Sport” music video

Video may not be playable in your RSS reader


In this exclusive video, three ’stoned out of they mind’ blipsters huddle around a laptop computer and watch the “Brother Sport” video. Many bands and artists want to inspire relevant discussions, but sometimes the only thing that truly ‘frees your mind’ and helps you to ‘truly analyze the society we are trapped in’ is . Seems like these blipbros really ‘brought 2gether the best of both worlds.’

Does Animal Collective make more sense when u r ‘lifted’?
Was AnCo engineered for people who smoke ‘wacky tobacky’?
Is Weed the official drug of AnCo, or is it LSD / acid / meow meow?

The blipsters begin to talk about their disenfranchisement with the scene. One claims that he wants to create art and poetry as opposed to ‘going out to party’ every weekend. He later claims that the Beatles are part of the Illuminati, part of some sort of worldwide conspiracy. Seems likely that he has ‘proof’ in some sort of youtube slideshow/website from 1993.

The sounds of Animal Collective’s hit anthem “Brother Sport” clash violently with the NBA posters on the walls of this blipster’s dorm room.

Can u connect with this meme? Have you ever ‘got mad lifted’ with ur bros, put on some AnCo, and talked about art, society, life, and any other modern buzztopic?
Do ‘black people’ ‘get’ Animal Collective?

Is “Brother Sport” a ‘hipster street name” for weed? Like when you go to your alt drug dealer, can u ask him for some “Brother Sport”?
Will he give you ‘premium weed’ or ‘dank schwag’?
Does this video represent ‘wanting to do something more with ur life’ but just sorta being a blazed bro who hands out with bros and watches things on screens, forming opinions on them, and ultimately living a ‘dead end life’ no matter how many relevant bands/videos/movies/memes u consume?
Do u wanna chill with these blipster bros?

Some guy makes website that identifies every Girl Talk sample. Whatever happened 2 the Girl Talks?

Some lonely bro on the internet made a website that ‘identifies’ every sample off Girl Talk’s previous album “Feed the Animals.” I think this might have been useful 2-5 years ago, but I just wanted to take time to ‘reintroduce’ Girl Talk as a bloggable meme. Really only using this post as an excuse to ask “WTF happened 2 Girl Talk? Bro really fell off my radar.”

Sorta wonder what happened to that bro. I remember back in the day when he was ‘the ultimate blogworthy artist’ since he mashed up so many songs back when we all ‘just wanted to party ironically’ instead of listening to boring indie rock. He sorta embodied the spirit of the Hype Machine back before the Hype Machine turned in2 a ‘poo poo shitter’ of mashup SEO mp3s.

Do u miss the spirit of Girl Talk?
Were u ever ‘on stage’ dancing right next to that bro?

Whatever happened 2 Girl Talk?
Do u still listen to his hit album Night Ripper?
Did he retire?
Is he just making mad bank as a college DJ?
Are music festivals still looking to book Girl Talk, or are they only interested in new buzzbands?
Did Girl Talk ever win respect as a ‘real DJ’?
Will Girl Talk ever have the chance to win critical acclaim now that the chillwave era has redefined the mainstream perception of indie sample based music?
Will Girl Talk ‘come back’ and try to compete in the modern state of the buzzosphere?

IF YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION ABOUT GIRL TALKS / Greg Gillis, PLEASE SHARE IT IN THE COMMENT SECTION. WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME U SAW THAT BRO?

The XX responds to AnCo’s Guggenheim art installation, creates their own artsy experience

Posted: 23 May 2010 09:53 AM PDT

After Animal Collective’s installation / performance art at the Guggenheim [link], it seems like bands who want to be authentic will now be required to ‘get artsy’ and focus less on their buzzworthy mp3s, but instead on that are related to their band brand. I am not sure if many bands are as ‘out there’ as AnCo, but seems like the XX just tried to make some ambient art, kinda like their music.

Some artist bro named Karl Sadler made some sort of installation art piece. There are three pillars that have TV screens on them, and each member of the XX is shown playing his instrument for the duration of their album. It is sorta like going to their concert, except they are on video screens, and it is artsy. There are also ‘timed lights’ that vibe with the music.

I wonder if this bro is ‘relieved’ that the 4th member of the XX was kicked out so he had ‘less work’ and he was able to create a ‘triangle’ of space instead of a ’square’

Do u think this is good for the XX’s brand? Does it make u want to stand in the center for 40 minutes, and just vibe out to their relevant 2009 album ‘xx’? Which band member’s screen do u think you would watch the most?

Kinda miss Romy. Hope she’s okay

Wonder what has been up 2. R u okay, bro?

Hope the other bro in the XX is okay, too. He has always seemed ‘distant’ tho…

Feel kinda distant from them lately, like they need new buzz products to keep me engaged in their brand. This performance art is kewl and all, but I am not sure if I can travel to the United Kingdom to be ‘immersed’ inside of their album for 40 minutes. Guess I’ll just have to ’settle’ for seeing them live at a ‘boring ass club’ with tons of other entry levs.

Wonder if the XX should invite Karl Sadler into their band as a ‘visual artist’ to replace the missing ethnic girl who they kicked out.

Do u like the emerging trend of ‘bands getting artsy’?
Is ‘getting artsy’ a required part of being an authentic indie buzzband within the high level internet criticismsphere?
Do u prefer the XX as artists over Animal Collective?
Will Animal Collective and the XX go ‘head to head’ in 2k11?
Will I ever get the chance to stand in a relevant buzz space?

Is the future of buzz and perceived authenticity thru art design and memes and architecture and ’space’?
