lol
pretty girl sounds like something he'd write desu
how is that wrong? bro-tip: you can't
I fucking despite Daniel Johnston's music and remain untouched by his passing. The guy could have probably lived out a decent enough life and the world could have probably been spared from his shit music if people didn't romanticize and mystify his illness and supplied him with thorough and proper professional help instead.
Instead he croaked in his 50s, probably miserable and deeply delusional, his legacy a handful of shit records college students pretend to like and not even a T-shirt, but a photograph of a T-shirt as an epitaph.
Fucking waste all around.
>inventor of fidget spinners
Bedroom Pop is Prince, Marvin Gaye etc.

After all, gotta make sure that future generations remember how much an authority on underground music you were ;)
Eat shit. Fun and 1990 are great.
They'll do the same thing to Siouxsie Sioux. No music journalists will touch her for some reason, but they'll be sure to mention her band influencing more popular acts like Radiohead and My Bloody Valentine. They'll call her a legend when she dies.
>No music journalists will touch her for some reason
Sioux strikes me as a pretty deliberately private person. What even is there to write about, considering she hasn't put out anything in over a decade and the Banshees' last album came out in 1995?
>and the world could have probably been spared from his shit music if people didn't romanticize and mystify his illness and supplied him with thorough and proper professional help instead.
This. And it was even worse with Wesley Willis.
>not Barry White
>omg people who aren’t as enthusiastic about Daniel Johnston as me have entered the thread!
I'm just saying. She's one of my favorite artists and her influence is almost completely ignored by the music press. When she dies, we'll see a million articles about how great she was and they'll pretend they were fans all along.
This user's right, you know.
R. Stevie Moore is the Godfather of Bedroom Pop, you pleb.
Where's the lie?
>noooo stop giving your opinion in a thread
Shut the fuck up you limp dicked faggot
>and they'll pretend they were fans all along.
Hell, people do this now.
It’s happening now with the laughable forcefeeding of the 20th century Japanese popular music canon to westerners. I wouldn’t mind it if people would just admit what a mockery it makes of their supposed credentials that it took some forced Youtube memeing of the stuff for anybody to give a shit
Music journalists are cockroaches and don't really matter. Siouxsie / the Banshees have a legitimate legacy that extends way beyond press posturing. That's all that matters.
He just died like two days ago
Chill out with this 14 year old angst you faggots
That shit is goofy because most of the people got into that from ironic vaporwave aesthetics
literally whomst?

user...
At least you understand how big of a retard you are.
A reaction image that explains nothing isn't an opinion, you backpedaling pussylip.
Everybody knows "outsider artists" are primarily a freakshow and a spectacle, including most of the people who champion them in the first place. Genuine empathy for these people doesn't manifest in further egging them on.
The Butthole Surfers fed Johnston acid(which would go on to fuck him up way worse than he already was) just to watch him freak out. Kurt Cobain would crack jokes about him in private for the sake of impressing his mouth-breathing hangers-on. It's all a bad fucking joke.
you are retoided, how the fuck did that image not explain anything?
This isn't your L*ddit chamber, your shit opinions and taste should be ass ravaged you faggots
I like Daniel Johnston but I wouldn't describe his music as "bedroom pop", and if it is then he isn't the Godfather. R Stevie Moore is dammit.
