WHY SAN FRANCISCO FEMNAZI SKUMKUNTS GET WHAT THEY FUCKING DESERVE (AND WHY THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF SHITHEAD WOMEN BEING HELD ACCOUNTABLE)

Imagine if a guy was behaving this awful and how quick everyone would be to demonize him for it. Social Media has enabled an entire generation of women or two who behave in the most awful ways and expect to never see consequences for their actions. We need to hold these fucking cunts accountable. Bravo to the dude who gave her the ol' foot sweep, and sent her flat on her drunk-ass face. Glad she got fucking fired too. I can't get re-hired in tech because these types of ageist, sexist, racist tech-geek skumfucks like to discriminate against people who are white, male, and over 30. So at least I can take some solace in watching them end up in the same un-hireable boat as me. Seriously, women, you need to start teaching your skumcunt daughters how to interact respectfully with the world. Chances are, you don't know wo to do it either, you skumcunt abusive, child-support-sucking, tablet baby, you.  The moment you get all drunkass in someone's face and start your shrill taun...

Album Review: Poison Arrows by Communique


Album: Poison Arrows
Artist: Communique

Website/Social Media: BandcampFacebook

Sounds Like: 80s New Wave & Indie Rock

Similar Artists: Matt Skiba & The Sekrets, We Are Scientists, Gerard Way (solo), Ozma, Alkaline Trio, The Network


Review: How has this band eluded my ears for over 10 years? Communique released 3 albums on Lookout! records in the mid 2000's but it took until just a few days ago for their 2004 full-length album Poison Arrows to fall into my hands.

The band's sound is a blending of 80s new-wave & indie rock / punk. Similar to that of  We Are Scientists, Matt Skiba & The Sekrets, or Gerard Way (of My Chemical Romance). "Ouija Me" is a fun-but-morbid love song that would easily fit right next to Alkaline Trio on a pop-punk/horror compilation. While the album is definitely a solid listen as a whole, there are a few songs that really stand out including "Black Curses" and "Perfect Weapon."


Communique was actually formed by the members of another Lookout! Records punk band named American Steel who thought that the new-wave sound wouldn't be a good fit under their former name. It is also interesting to note that former Lookout! Records and Bay Area artists Green Day also experimented with a new-wave side project (The Network) around this same time with both bands releasing debut albums in 2003. Was one band inspired by the other or was it all just a coincidence? I'm definitely not pointing any fingers because the fact that both exist are good things in my opinion.

Our Score: 8.5/10 - A solid album from start to finish with a few solid singles for pop-punk fans who maybe aren't as big on the new-wave sound.
