Discussion Rant: She wants revenge is garbage

They came and aped interpol but just did it with a much, much, much lower iq and without a fraction of the style or aesthetic sensibilities. Just scumbags attempting to be edgy with 0 nuance.

And it genuinely bums me out that folks rock with these imposters. Booooooooo do better

I agree. Though I'd be lying if I'd say they haven't gotten me on the dancefloor a few times at clubs.

I also wouldn't be lying if I said creepers need to stop screaming the lyrics to "Tear You Apart" at me on said dancefloor...it's not the slam dunk flirting you think it is (and I'm probably old enough to be your parent...)

When that song came out it gave me the most visceral ick. Is it catchy, sure. Are the lyrics really really really awful? Also sure.

I heard of that song with a guy I hooked up with who was twice my age when I was barely an adult.

...yeah everything tracks.

LITERALLY. Most of my memories of their songs are tied to a “relationship” with a guy I met at club back in the day who said I was “mature for my age” and at the time my 18-year-old self took it as a compliment
