>Zach Hill was described by some friends and colleagues as racist. His friend Stefan Burnett, the American rapper who helped him sign to Epic Records, described him as "Nazi-esque", saying: "Every once in a while there'd be something about blacks and I'd be, 'But Zach, I'm black,' and he was like 'Yes, yes, I don't mean you.' He had a definite Nordic Aryan streak, [the belief] that he was physically, spiritually and creatively superior", a view he appears to have continued to maintain throughout his years as a heroin addict and long after his appearances on Hella album covers had become a thing of the distant past. According to Burnett, Zach once attacked a mixed-race woman in a restaurant with a drum stick, saying "thanks man". During a performance in Berlin, the audience rioted after Zach performed a version of the song "Gross Sales" with vocals, including a verse omitted for its nationalist associations.
Is this why Wavves fired him as their drummer?

i actually enjoy some of this guy's music, bummer he's such an intolerant leftist. i would have expected (or hoped, anyway) that some of the nihilism displayed in his lyrics would translate to his overall worldview. too bad he's just towing the SJW line like a good goy

yeah nah he's retarded
>>66215656
yeah #alllivesmatter is pretty stupid but not evil or anything - its more of a snotty response to BLM that white people say
but not defending police officers? thats fucked up. why do police officers get universally demonized in America for shooting a few black dudes when 90% of black deaths are dude to other black people?
>making completely politically correct, safe, degenerate leftist pandering comments that appeal to his 14-19 year old bernie sanders/tumblr using demographic
literally not courageous or powerful or cool or anything
just sad
>>66215974
police brutality, when it exists, is a legitimate problem that needs to be addressed, but the recent demonization of our police forces is ultimately just the latest way to divide the working class and pit us against one another. don't trust any "leftist" who encourages such tactics, they're a shill for neoliberal capitalism, willingly or not.
>>66215404
No, he already peaked.
Now he just gets less relevant and fatter/uglier by the year
Does anyone here like King of the Beach a lot? I mean, I don't like this guy at all but honestly its pretty good and probably the only good thing he'll ever do.
>>66216046
no no i agree, police brutality is a problem with far reaching consequences.
but i think its valid to defend police for not being racists.

yes, yes. good wavves.
keep the making the racial division more and more in this country. white people = bad, black people = kings, make it clear!
>>66216176
it's not just that.
It is that he actively discriminates against people with differing opinions. A very rude man.

His gf is a raging SJW. She probably made him post this or he wouldn't get any sex. He's gone nuts, Stephen Pope would be laughing his ass off at this.

I'm a beta numale cuck sanders supporter and even i say nigga
>>66215502
Honestly who cares wavves is shit anyways and trump will be the president. All you can do is pity this dude because the only thing that hes got going for his life is some garbage surf rock revival band
>>66216533
>would be
isn't he still their bass player? wouldn't he hold similar opinions or not be allowed to be in the band?
>>66216421
and you are implying everyone ITT is a "college liberal" or average /pol/fag. That is a hasty generalization and exactly what both groups frequently do.
>>66215502
>if youve gone out of your way to defend police in america
I hope some illegal shit happens to this dickhead and then we'll see if he takes matters into his own hands or if he decides the police ain't too bad
>>66216649
one of my best friends is a cop and i tell him all the time that i think all cops are bastards
>>66216573
i don't know about trump winning but otherwise this is on point
Seems like a cool guy. The police statement may not have been that smart tho. (although I do dislike law enforcement, they're just doing what THEY THINK is right)
I challenge wavves to a fucking fight
>>66216360
He's not incorrect
>>66216799
Whichever way this fight ends, it'll be a positive for all of us
>>66215932

Stephen Pope was in Jay Reatards band and grew up relatively poor I think, he was adopted, a far cry from the sheltered middle class liberal arts brats he has to hang out with today. I doubt he agrees with upper middle class identity politics but has to go along with it in the scene anyway to get a paycheck.
>>66216909
To be honest, even that lanky guy from The Black Lips managed to beat the shit out of this guy, so I reckon Montie can take him.
Montie, if you do this, you will be officially the best tripfag on this board

Based Wavves. Smart guy.
Is this the most publicity he's gotten since GTA5? Honestly, I think other than that, the last I might have heard of him was that LP he did with Cloud Nothings. Anyway, my point is, how is this really relevant?
Last album was shit. so I guess he needs to come up with something to keep his band relevant
>>66216360

can't blame them though, liberalism is something you grow out of when you have to actually live in the real world

Spot the /mu/ users who came from this thread
>>66217416
how are waves not punk? every one of their releases is tagged as some brand of punk everywhere.
you ever seen one of the political compass things with the 4 quadrants? punk would normally be in the green, this is some red shit right here.
>>66215502
He's absolutely right
Based Nathan
WAVVES is ruthless
>>66217478
I've always considered them surf-indie rock.
has he been drinking beer constantly for the past 5 years? I wouldnt have even recognized him
Garbage musician but we know this for the last several years. Good think he just dug his own grave.
>>66216360
sort of correct
I'm left center and when I'm not on /mu/, I'm enjoying my time on /pol/
>>66217537
He had to go to rehab for alcohol addiction at some point, didn't he? So probably. This thing sure reads likes he's back on something or another.
>>66217527
it's not like they can't be multiple genres at the same time, it's not like these particular genres are mutually exclusive or anything
they're surf rock, they're indie rock, they're punk rock

>>66218505
It's based on stories he's heard about the wavves guy being a dick
>>66218540
I don't think so, but I'm going to go do it
>>66217288
Yea we need more lavren and grimes cummies threads :3

>>>/pol/80002988
Also, I post on /pol/ for the first time, and get 88. Is that a sign?
>>66215502
imagine if he spent as much time writing songs as he did wondering about what people to ban from his shows
I'm still a huge fan of the band. Do people honestly stop listening to a certain band/artist because of their political beliefs?
how cucked can you be
>>66219893
No, I stop listening to him cause I heard one of his songs
>>66215502
literally cuck: the person
>>66219893
No, I wouldn't stop listening to him (even though he might want me to) just because of this. I don't listen to him because his music is boring and doesn't appeal to me.
Even the nu-males on Stereogum's comment section are backlashing against him
http://www.stereogum.com/1886496/wavves-say-trump-supporters-all-lives-matter-advocates-not-welcome-at-their-shows/news/
That being said, most likely because hes a white male
>>66215502
I want off this ride
>>66219893
i would love to do that, but unlike libstinks i don't really have that luxury because then i'd have to go and delete about 99% of my library.
>think what I think or you aren't welcome
I'm not advocating rape or murder but come on man. By being "tolerant" he's being intolerant
>>66221000
Lmao what a cuck
Wavves has always been trash and this latest publicity stunt is just a desperate bid to try to remain relevant and you guys are buying into it.
>>66221287
Not a good long term move on his part, he gets some press for a few days but his reputation gets hurt overall
>>66221848
>implying a junkie can project that far into the future
he's done shit like this before to exactly the same type of reaction. if it saves him from obscurity for a few days then he's all for it.

This makes me not like him that much anymore like #1 says it all, he's a cuck just like most leftists. I get that people don't want people they don't like listening to their music but political views don't define people and don't always have to do with art/taste.
>>66223450
So, a musician alienates their fanbase by being a closeminded piece of shit, and it's not music related? You might literally be retarded, especially since you spent all that time needlessly quoting loads of post to be obnoxious.

Hello there, Redditor!
>>66223601
SJWs on /mu/ don't like threads where opposing views to SJW musicians are expressed.

>>66215404
I am so excited to see the tarantula tour. Also, I think their last album was their second best, next to king of the beach.

i love him :)
>>66216416
Sid was a joke
>>66215502
the kinds of people he mentioned on that list always tend to be the most stale or unpleasant to be around.
why would i choose to be at a show surrounded by them when i could like bathe in mold
"banning" them doesn't change how i feel about his music whatsoever
All that nu-male bullshit aside, I think he's become one of my favorite bands. I don't really like that it's happened, but goddamn Afraid of Heights is great.
>>66223601
t. nu-male faggot piece of shit
i dont enjoy being talked down to by a faggot man child, guy is like 30 years old and still makes shitty teen music because he's an idiot. he's not a real artist. pretty much every musician that i enjoy is probably an SJW and i wouldn't mind it 99% of the time because they'd probably say the same shit only in a more nuanced fashion and not see the world in total black/white good/evil terms. wavves is a dumb guy. no one respects him artistically. dumb music for dumb people.
>>66215502
FUCK YEAH! NOTHING MORE PUNK THAN AGGRESSIVELY AGREEING WITH MAINSTREAM CONSENSUS!!! Guess all the social conservatives that we're flocking to wavves concerts in droves will be shit out of luck now.

i just looked on RYM, monks weren't the first entry in protopunk. it was some french fags by the name of "les blousons noirs".

Don't get me wrong, in any group of people there's going to be some shitstains, but overall most police officers are decent enough people. To say "fuck you if you don't indiscriminately hate all police officers" is immature and frankly bovine
