Rockbitch: What the Fuck? (literally)

Post by Iceberg »

The most pretentious goth band EVER. (and here's their official website) How pretentious, you might ask? Well, they waste five pages (and 30 minutes of my life which I will NEVER get back, thank you VERY much) describing in extent how they have safe sex with each other whenever they want to (actually, they spend most of their website on their sexual habits and very LITTLE is spent on their music - they have no MP3s available for download, no videos available for download, and all their merchandise is sold out and they have no intention of manufacturing more). Additionally, much whining is made of the fact that the TERRIBLE CHRISTIANS DIDN'T MAKE UP ALL THEIR OWN RELIGIOUS CEREMONIES, OH NOES!!!1!11

They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

That was very odd.

For a supposed band, they sure don't seem to talk about music much.

Hey, cut them a little slack. When Rockbitch make unintentionally hilarious statements not related to their music, they actually mean them.

There aren't many bands who do that.

BTW - can anybody here give me a clue about what Rockbitch's music sounds like? I've never heard it, but I recall reading in a newspaper that it was some sort of punk rock.

(Rockbitch are a prime example of what I call "The Rage Against The Machine Syndrome" - or "When A Band Becomes More Famous For Their Opinions Than Their Music")

Well, the reviewer calls them "a group of talentless, pagan Alanis Morissette lookalikes" if that says anything.

Most of that isn't aimed at their music however. Seems to be more concerned with their image as opposed to how good their music actually is.

I'm getting tired of pointing out the obvious - but that means they look like Alanis, not that they sound like her.

Then you're a fucking idiot for not developing auto scanning
to tell you "This is fucking worthless, fuck it" and going to
something more interesting like learning how to play THIRD REICH.

I also heard that they routinely throw out a golden condom into the audience during performances, which the guy who catches it can meet them after the stage and bang the lead singer. This got them banned in London, I understand

If you do, please report to me what the actual music was like - are their music anything special, or is Rockbitch a run-off-the-mill gothrock band whose members incidentally happen to be really horny lesbians?
