i dont understand why he didn't go full out with the nazi stuff
in the early 70s he would pretend to be a faggot to shock people
and after people got used to it and being a homo was tame so he should have gone full out nazi

He was into black magic first. The Nazi aspect came later. He was also suffering from stimulant psychosis and claiming he had 5 lps he could just drop if he wanted.

does he follow the laws of power?

Also didn't he work on Speaking In Tongues?

Anyone else think this sounds a lot like radiohead? Like a lot?
>"Hey Dave it's me your agent, listen that androgynous nonsense you're into is really in style all of the sudden, you gotta come back"
Blackstar is a Black Hole that resides in the centres of the galaxies. Bowie's new album will be a philosophical dive into the universe and life. He also possibly refers to himself as the centre of all life, maybe to say that all life is equal and all equals all. We are life, we are Blackstar.
>>60619269
kek i dont know why thats funny
I'm not crazy about it. I like that he's making music though. Amazing Lou Reed lived as long as he did and Bowie and Iggy Pop are alive.

It sounds nothing like radiohead
The comment section of the video is so cancerous
"Can you Christians keep your shit to yourself and not put it in the comments...you obviously don't know who David Bowie and plus the lyrics don't even say anything satanic. Although I find the music video weird but you know it's David Bowie. Bottom-Line, keep your shit to yourself, you almost complain about lots of Rock songs. Look David Bowie has amazing visions for his music. So honestly just keep your beliefs to yourself. I don't care for religion and you believe in what you want but when you're shoving this type of shit down my throat I get pissed. So do me and the Fans of David Bowie a favor and Fuck. Off."

+Derek Price (electricWildflower) Well, it's because they see things in those terms and everything must be framed within that so have a radar for symbols and interpret them to fit their beliefs. Atheists will recognise the religious overtones but just see someone using them to provoke response and make a comment about religion itself (and the people involved). Christians will interpret the occult references to be saying something about Bowie himself and his affiliations. I'm not religious so whether someone is Christian, Satanist (same belief system, opposite side, so similar), Occultist, Spiritualist, Buddhist, Hindu, Muslim, Scientologist, etc....it's all the same to me."

reread bruh. "organized religion"
>>60627726
you sound like a real cock. Bowie likes the universe and he likes the power of religious imagery. if u can't respect that then get fucked
>>60627833
To talk about "organized religion" is a meaningless distinction that people use to flatter their own false sense of individuality.
>>60627867
When did I suggest that being in awe of the universe or respecting religious imagery are bad things? I'm just disappointed that ol' Davie can't go beyond that to see the value in Religious practice as more than a visual thing.
>>60627928
"organized"... as in the core of your beliefs are in line with those of the people you share your temple/church/mosque/etc with. Taking spiritual advice which in every example i've seen so far is lunacy.
>>60627928
That's true of only a fraction of reasons people talk about organized religion
>>60627984

>>60626343
For the most part this song is just dull ambience. If it weren't a Bowie song, nobody would care.
>>60628701
Gira is actually pretty interesting from a religious standpoint. He was raised catholic, and says that even though he doesn't really follow anything he still is spiritual. But then you look at Children of God. I think he appreciates religion but despises the hypocrisy of the church institution and the blind faith involved.
>>60631459
>I think he appreciates religion but despises the hypocrisy of the church institution and the blind faith involved.
So he's just like every other edgelord. Complaining about religious hypocrisy usually just means "They have a moral code that makes me feel bad, so they must be hypocrites", and "blind faith" usually means "I want to follow my impulses instead of thousands of years of tradition".

What did you think of Ready to Die with The Stooges?
Supposedly he's going to make music with a "British band" or something. Google it.
Also, favorite albums by him? Any you consider underrated?
It's hard to have a conversation about Iggy Pop on /mu/ past something along the lines of "Listen to Lust For Life and The Idiot."
>>60628760
The dancing in the attic was based off of an old popeye cartoon.
>>60629290
It's the biggest creative risk/experiment he's done since 1. Outside.
I like it but I'd prefer if someone leaked his Ziggy 2002 sessions or his 71 Glastonbury concert.

Ready to Die was ok. Kill City is my favorite over his berlin records. Metallic KO worth listening too. Have you watched Henry Rollins talk about Iggy Pop live? Good shit.

If you ask me his work from the self-titled The Stooges to Lust For Life are 10/10's. Then his records go to good and spotty till his jazz work. Preliminaires and Apres are also 10/10's to me.
Metallic KO is the best live album I've ever heard.
Yeah I've watched a few clips of Rollins talking about him. It's funny to hear about his experiences even though I don't like him.

Lou Reed's Take no Prisoners is a great live album.
>>60616656
I would like to know more about this, that sounds strangely specific
>>60633104
I've listened to a few bits and pieces of the box set. I heard the single version of "Down on the Street" for the first time. I liked the organ they added to it. Iggy's wrestler promoter introduction of TV Eye was funny.
Skull Ring was iffy for me. I really hate Pop Punk and that album was loaded with Pop Punk guests. This might sound odd, but I've often wondered about Dave Alexander, The Stooges original bassist. You wouldn't happen to know of any books or websites that would have info on him would you?
>>60615835

As someone who is a huge fan of Bowie and knows a bit about this sort of thing and the lyrical content he's citing, it seems like he's reeeeaally reaching at a couple Occult references and themes Bowie admitted to that he explored at the time and had abandoned long since, or continued to cannibalize.
It's important to remember Bowie's like a born-again Christian, which makes current renewed accusations of Satanism that much funnier. He mostly does it for the imagery and the art, I don't think there's much more to it.
>>60629002
I'm betting most of the Nazi higher-ups were secretly what stormfags would consider degenerates.

>>60633637
1) The Crusades were an act of retaliation against centuries of Islamic aggression.
2) Yes, the fact that the Saudi's are able to have so much influence and that the West is under siege from Islam shows that secular western culture is weak.
>>60633751
The Saudi's influence isn't because of their religion -focused culture, it's because they've got so much oil.
>>60633463

>>60633469
Bowie was born-again but he's since gone back to spiritual agnostic vagary.
>>60633469
>>60636299
When was he born again? I thought he was a Heathen (meaning someone who doesn't believe in the Abrahamic religions: Christianity, Judaism, Islam).
>>60633811
>The Saudi's influence isn't because of their religion -focused culture, it's because they've got so much oil.
Lots of people have oil, retard. The reason the Saudis (and nations like them) are influential is because they do their oil trade with the USD. America wants to retain its status as global economic hegemon, so we need to play nice with them. Otherwise our currency might start to lose its status as the global standard.
>>60615835
I love this song, I feel like he knows how important the berlin trilogy and he is trying to experiment again, good stuff very good stuff
>>60637082
This is the dumbest post about economics I've ever read on /mu/, and that's saying something.
>>60637489

Then you should ask me about why we had such a boom after World War II.
>>60637053
>>60636299
Tail end of the Thin White Duke stuff. He wrote Word on a Wing. Also check out the Nassau 76 version of I'm Waiting for the Man. Bob Dylan became born-again around the same years.
Later Bowie would lead Wembley stadium in the Lord's Prayer during the Freddie Mercury Memorial concert after the GOAT live version of Heroes reunited with Mick Ronson on lead guitar.

Does anyone find that odd? Besides a few little ticks here and there it's fairly a fairly safe jazz kind of tune, but Blackstar is way out there.
What's that about?
>>60641303
Maybe because Blackstar is the opening track they went overdrive

It's just not interesting enough to justify its ten minutes.
