>>54847976

For one, his alcoholic, mentally-unstable mother left him and his family when he was 1. Very interesting childhood
Goldie's had a pretty interesting life

Damn.
>>54848154
This is crazy. I had no idea. Thanks for sharing.
>>54847866
DUDE I FUCKIN KNOW. I COULD'VE LIVED IN A SHIT SWAMP, DRINKING ACID AND GETTING BURNED ALIVE FOR 20 YEARS, but if I can fuck Bjork at some point, its all good haha.
>>54847890
elaborate
>>54848223
Was homeless at one point
>>54848119
Another member of the Asshole Dad club
all people are sad and interesting
>>54848194
Nothing happend to him you silly ding-aling (^:
>>54848195
I don't think he had that bad/interesting of a background. sure he was highly paranoid and he smoked crack like a madman, but that was all during his career.
>>54847908
crust punk at 12, roaming around, born in a comune. yeah dude is pure hobo american.
>>54848259
He had it worse than Michael tbh
>>54847976
how did you recognise him from the picture but not know his back ground?
>>54848154
also hes stuck in england now for some reason
Still a banger

>>54848320
TERMINATOR IS OUT THERE
>>54848146
Daily reminder that Paul Simon completely fucked him over
>>54848194
what a fucking waste of time that film was
>>54848307
I have no idea, i'm pretty surprised. I used to be a big fan of his.
He's been banned from the US or something like that
>>54848259
>the void
>>54848306
what's her story?
>>54848320
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THINGS WE'RE HAVEN'T EVEN DONE YET
>>54848340
>The film would have been okay if it wasn't for that painfully annoying English cunt
>>54848332
>>54848367
BACK 2 THE OLD SKOOL
>>54848252
Crazy mexican stalker fan got so butthurt because he hated Bjork "racemixing" with Goldie and his own gyno and being a beta bitch, sent her letter bombs, filmed a 20+ hour long video where he shaved his head, painted his face and ranted and then shot himself. Basically changed Bjork from cheery, cute pop debutante to her darker, more experimental works starting with Homogenic
>>54848368
on the contrary he was probably my favourite thing about the film. The entire story just leads to... nothing
>>54848414
Thanks /pol/!
>>54848094
>pioneering jungle
nah. could say he pioneered d&b but that'd be a stretch. very influential though and a great artist in his prime.
>grew up in a cult
>serious thoughts about suicide during the Dead Deer recordings
>has suffered from clinical depression for years
>>54848439
I like that he starts out with dreams but no talent, and then finishes the movie with crushed dreams and still no talent. Shit's pretty lulzy
![Mf-grimm[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/fRZBloo.jpg "Mf-grimm[1].jpg")
MF GRIMM
>>54848462
Sorry, didn't really mean "pioneer".
>that'd be a stretch
Funnily enough, that's what I mean, his timestretching technique is what I was referring to.
>>54848154
>yfw DOOM's supervillain origin that fuels his persona is actually real
>>54848465
makes sense
>>54848465
>thoughts of suicide
>clinical depression
every musician ever lol
>>54848414
i've seen that video and i had no idea it had anything to do with bjork
>>54848362
I was half joking but supposedly she ran away from home in her early teens to live in a squat community of punks, then she became the vocalist of an allgirl crust punk band where she was discovered by Ethan Kath, who recruited her for Crystal Castles at 15, after which she just kept touring for years after their rapid success. She has also said she just listened to the same Darkthrone album for years while living a life of drug abuse
Rumor has it she has been abused since she was a child, and also by her bandmate
>>54848628
I guarantee Alice Glass has been raped a few times.
>>54848600
No shit. His "suffer trauma and disappear back home and then mysteriously reemerge as a villain seeking revenge behind a cold steel mask" thing is an exact mirror of Dr. Doom's story. That's why he chose the name
>>54848642
Yeah I think so
>>54848628
>she just listened to the same Darkthrone album for years
that's hot
>>54848414
he was uruguayan, not mexican, you pleb, get your shit str8 m8
>>54848658
Would explain this shit
>>54848642
The song Tell Me What to Swallow which she recorded in her teens hints of her father's sexual abuse
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3e50Dk6oD0
>>54848676
Apparently it was Under a Funeral Moon
>>54848051
father abandoned his family because he was a drug addict
>>54848642
>>54848658
Well violent youth is about rape. Perhaps a personal experience
>>54848728
UAFM is my favourite one. fuck yeah
>>54848723

Speaking of Beach Boys, here's a recent status from one of Mike Love's many children (I believe she is his youngest)
what´s Tina got to do with this thread?
>>54849360
I know about all the acid and the depression but is there anything else to his story?
>>54849452
>>54849360
>>54849224
stop posting Robert Smith
>>54848414
Hey what was the last words he said before he shot himself?
Something like "continue?"
http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=54d_1333752609
Sauce confirmation from anyone?
>>54849538
I posted Robert and Tina, but not the fooshy guy.
>>54847831
>no John Lennon
Alright epic patricians.
This thread is making me so depressed
Even though sad shit happened near his prime... fuck man, it's still kind of heartbreaking
>>54848146
Do you guys want his most recent album before he died?
I paid for it because I couldn't find it on SLSK and the archive. I just need to tag like 4 more tracks and then I can u/l it because they came completely untagged.
>>54850493
Please.
>>54850520
Alright sure, just gimme a sec. It's very different from his older albums. His voice is completely shot from the cigarettes.
>>54849452
Who run barter town?
>>54850163
Love Lennon but if you think he had it hard go fuck yourself. My pops dipped and I barely knew my mom too. Unlike Lennon I'm not, well, John fucking Lennon. He had a great life and accomplished more then most musicians ever could. Who cares if he got depressed once in awhile.
>>54848258
got any sources or info on his life?
i'd like to learn a bit about him
>>54850520
