>Austin-based psychedelic prog-rock band, Dream Machine, has been dropped by Castle Face Records over anti-feminist, pro-liberty views thay they expressed in an interview for French publication Still In Rock. Castle Face co-founder John Dwyer, who once praised the band saying they were “jammed with hooks and pulsing vintage vibes but in a clever and accomplished manner”, released a public statement condemning the band solely for the views they expressed in the interview, claiming the band’s statements were “ugly.”
>One of the topics from the interview, now making waves, was immigration policy. Doris Melton [organs & vocals] said: “ICE is just doing their job and I’m glad they’re finally starting to work on deporting criminal illegal aliens too. The United States is handing out free money to people who come here illegally, but when you want to work hard to become an American citizen to start a family they make it so hard on you, and expensive.” Doris is a Bosnian who settled in the Netherlands in the 90s and now legally lives the United States. On the topic of feminism Doris also criticized “horrible feminist bands that barely know how to play their instruments”, stating that “the safe space mentality has made them weak. You see the longing for a gender supremacy under the guise of ‘equal rights.’”
This is the Interview that got them fired from Castle Face. I remember being üpositevly surprised by this interview when I read it last month.

>being positively surprised by this interview
you're as big of an ideologue as him, good job
What a poser
who give le fuck about dream machine getting fired for hurting their label with their stupid opinions
go join a anti-feminist record label if you want to act like a retard in interviews oh wait they dont exist or if they do they are completely irrelevant
What records would you rate as perfect 10?
this is the only record worthy of a 10 for me.
none
>INTERVIEWER: You’ve allegedly changed your mind on certain albums you’ve reviewed. While I’ve seen your scores change slightly, have there been some albums you’ve done a complete 180 on?
>SCARUFFI: I keep hearing this, but which albums are you talking about? Slight changes in the ratings happen all the time because i need to balance one band’s ratings with all the others, but i can’t remember a major recording where i changed my mind (“garbage” to “masterpiece” or viceversa). I certainly changed my mind on the degree of influence, e.g. i never imagined that Black Sabbath or Radiohead would become so influential (i still don’t particularly like either, btw). Unfortunately, it happens only for the very famous albums that people ask me to re-listen and re-listen (often with the result that i get more and more convinced of my initial opinion, eg Revolver, one of the worst albums i’ve ever heard no matter how many times i re-listen to it).

>2017
>forcing yourself to listen to trash over and over because you think you don't get it
he is so based..
Scaruffi rated Revolver a 5/10. He's rated dozens if not hundreds of albums with a lesser score, so either he's lying here for the click bait of him disliking The Beatles or he's been lying on his site.
>not liking Revolver
He's not wrong though.

It's ok, you'll learn eventually
Which board on 4chan do you imagine has the worst taste in music?
>inb4 /mu/
>>73660896
prolly some of the porn and anime boards
and b of course
i imagine just a lot of linkin park and eminem and awful weeb shit
/mu/ is basic but at least we're trying
/pol/
>>73660919
I would say not the porn boards because there's always people who enjoy porn music from the New Beat scene, or something like Lords of Acid.
I would say the most shit taste actually is /mu/ because they guide their tastes on trends and appearances rather than finding shit they actually like.
>>73660933
Lots of neofolk / martial industrial fans there. its good shit my dude. But politically wrong
>Lofi Hip Hop Radio 24/7 Chill Gaming / Study Beats
Definitely one of the worst trends right now
>mega vaporwave mix
>it's just trap and synthwave music
I clench my hand into a fist every time I see that fucking youtube recommendation with that anime kid doing homework.
I mean someone please start hanging these people.
This is a masterpiece.
I love Nikes, Ivy, Pink + White, Solo and Self Control. The rest is meh.
this album will be called a 10/10 everywhere in a couple years when it clicks
frank ocean is a masterpiece in general
