so this came out yesterday
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMK0prafzw0

and now my facebook feed is blowing up with :qq:s from aphex fans with no sense of irony

quote:

Die Antwoord just destroyed (not in a good way) one of the best Aphex Twin songs. assholes.

quote:

I have never understood why people like this "band." Every single thing I have heard from them is garbage...

quote:

At least The KLF took the time to re record the Gary Glitter tune ...

quote:

Just because it's the 21st century and nothing is sacred doesn't mean you have to jump off the bridge too. Appropriation has also become regurgitation in a huge way. Cultivate new sounds and ideas even if they are inspired or influenced by the past.
lol if u don't even notice RDJ in blackface in the video, some "fan"

i feel like they're the same kinda people
yeah exactly, audiospergs treat aphex twin like he's ~SUPER loving SERIAL~ (and rolling stone shitcans drukqs while vicemag produce die antwoord's videos so apparently they're ~worlds apart~) but then afx makes songs about wanting milk from the milkman's wife's tits and whatever

plus there's also this thing, whatever it means

i watched the ugly boy vid

is that actually RDJ, or someone else wearing a mask?
yeah idk i kind of assumed it was him since they also had marilyn manson (another friend of die antwoord) and those 2 models in the clip but otoh i bet chris cunningham still has a bunch of aphex twin masks lying around they could've borrowed

plus i'm an idiot babby who should probably turn in his yosposters badge because i didn't ID ageispolis in ugly boy until that poo poo came up on my facebook, so my opinion probably doesn't matter. i need to listen to saw1 more

hell, if they're fans they'd realise that rdj and die antwoord like each other and he probably gave them express permission to use ageispolis
no but you see death of the author means that rdj's opinion doesn't matter. furthermore,

google says it's not actually him http://pitchfork.com/news/57312-die-antwoord-enlist-marilyn-manson-jack-black-flea-cara-delevingne-more-for-ugly-boy-video/
so more fuel for the spergs to get mad since they could only be faking his approval while appropriating his music, face and logo!!!

apparently jack black, flea and "the ATL Twins" (whatever that is) are in it as well though :shrug:
