just so you know: we were referencing a sonic youth insert, not winking at whirr so heavily “that it couldn’t have been mere coincidence.” maybe ask a few questions before spouting off weird assumptions. ya know, the whole “journalism” part of music journalism.
I've been thinking a lot about how we write about, discuss and historically contextualize bands who've been "canceled" within subculture.
I wrote about that within the context of Whirr, who were canceled seven years ago yet remain remarkably popular.
