Cannibal Cheerleader

“I just associate it with a certain look and a certain style and the kind of kids at school that I thought were– this is really bad, I’m sure– the kind of kids that were dumbasses wearing Rancid t-shirts who thought they knew what punk rock was and threw things at people in the cafeteria. So it’s like, okay, now we’re going to be performing for these people…..Yeah, maybe I’ll be eating my words later, but all those bands have this very specific look and sound and style. It’s like the new hair metal or something. There are like 10 different rules about how you write a song and what everything sounds like and looks like. I’d like to imagine that we’re very much the opposite of that.”

So there you have it AP Magazine crowd – scenester music is a cookie-cutter, shallow musical form devoid of creativity and only popular because record labels push it down young kids’ throats. Good to know that real punk-rockers like Miss Pearl agree with us here at CC. You can read the rest of this excellent BYOP interview here. Also here’s a missing cut from Get Awkward that Pearl describes as “especially important”. We think so too!

SF PERKELE SPEAKS OUT
In other news, SF Perkele has spoken out about his supposed MF Doom/Madvillainy tape. From his Myspace:

“MF/SF BOOTLEG IS MOS DEF NOT OFFICIAL! Only made a few cdr copies for friends about a year ago, no track/album titles whatsoever. Shit was untitled as fuck, a ruff draft. We don’t know who the fuck made it available to the internet and named the tracks etc. Please delete it from all the sites and don’t distribute it anymore to these ignorant motherfuckers, whom it wasn’t meant for in the first place.
Real talk!”

So there you have it, no Madvillainy 2, sad to say, and we won’t be posting any more mp3s of this bootleg per Mr. SF’s request. Still, looking forward to more MF Doom in the future!
