hmmmmm....
Why do you homosexuals keep seething about this shit?
Is there an artist more seethed over on LULZ?
Most of new york is rural. Also wtf is a working class new york accent? The US doesnt have artificial class based accents like the UK
>he doesn't believe working class New York even exists
let me tell you how I know you have a fund
Not even the guy you responded to but this is not what he said. Besides, not everyone is familiar with the accents of NYC.
In any case, a 'working class New York accent' is not something that I've seen in any linguistic journal or paper.
New York used to a have a distinctive accent among the working class. But nowadays, NYC is just a hodgepodge of every ethnicity. There is no culture in NYC anymore aside from crime and hedge funds.
of course there is, he'd be like
>Ay Pops! I needs da trust fund check, ya jerk! I gots to take Maria to da dance ya see? I needs a new distortion pedal to run mah field recordings of clanking chains for da art show pops ya mathafucka!!!"
>The US doesnt have artificial class based accents like the UK
It kind of does, especially in the old cities on the east coast. The stereotypical New Yorker accent is very working class. Same with the Boston and Philadelphia accents.
Only leftoids care about other's people wealth.
pretending to be humble to appear more likeable i suppose
M. Gira is literally from California, why the fuck would he have a NY accent?
He's a trust fund kid, he's never done a hard day's work on his life. That guitar he's playing in that pic is worth 4000 bucks alone, looks like he treats it like shit too cause he doesn't care how much it costs. If I had a guitar that pricey I'd be so fucking careful with it
It's not really correct to call him a trust fund kid. While he did have one, most of his wealth was given in the form of property and other investments. The fund was only a small part.

Forgot Pic, turns out it's even more expensive than I thought lol. Why tf would you buy this over just a normal es 335 that you can get for like a fifth of that price. Must be some rich guy ego mentality thing I don't understand
Honestly I wish I could have had wealth handed to me too but I can't stand how he postures as an "average joe" for good boy points
That guitar hes holding was actually played by Michael gira himself, its easily worth $50k+
This, literally every fucking band is a trust fund kid. I lived in new york 2013-2014 around the indie boom there thinking all the cool bands I liked were chill but every single one of them had the same story
>oh yeah my dad works for vanity fair
>my mom is an editor for this well known magazine or dad works in a bank etc etc
Everyone one of the bands had connections and it felt like them playing in a band was some little hobby they could afford cause their parents were upper class.
It made me start to fucking hate music. To this day I listen to shit from the 50s to 70s cause artists then actually came from nothing
You sound like a fag
whats the source of this?
One schizo's imagination. zoomers are retarded and have to make shit up just so they can feel like they're David killing Goliath. They're too hedonistic and stupid a generation to actually start a revolution and so they've replaced activism and raw discourse with pseudo-intellectual posturing and other risk-free bullshit.
easily the least interesting meme in the history of this board. go outside
>plays art rock, a genre that is well-known to be disliked by the poor
This is boomer critic headcanon, not fact
't talk in a working class New York accent
people can move to new york
a cowboy hat when in fact, people in New York aren't cowboys
people in new york of every class wear all kinds of weird shit
to have ruined body doing physical labor and alcoholism
hair and sculpted body
"ruined body" means your body is fucked up with chronic pain, not that youre fat
art rock, a genre that is well-known to be disliked by the poor
im poor and i like experimental rock
>tickets to his shows are known to cost several hundreds of dollars
is this why the audience is always so empty on their shows? i thought it was because all of the new stuff sounds like pretentious garbage.
Yeah, The cheapest tickets ($110) get you a cup to put up on the outside of the building to listen
art rock, a genre that is well-known to be disliked by the poor
also by the middle class and the upper class btw
fucking zoomers get a new grift already this shit is dull
its like you just realized your parents arent watching and this is all you got?
holy shit
to his shows are known to cost several hundreds of dollars

You're meant to get paid to play with them, Norman.

Yeah, Norman, you are meant to get payed for playing in giras band.
>tickets to his shows are known to cost several hundreds of dollars

So typical boomer poser

You should be shitposting about John Olson from Wolf Eyes, who has connections to the US Military & Intelligence, and is married to someone who works for a major media holding company. Or literally any other truly privileged, inauthentic ass of a "musician" that people worship these days.

>Plays a Gibson Lucille withe tape on it
