it shouldn’t even be notable, but there is something to be said about how there’s been no accusations of the Beatles taking advantage of their fans, especially considering their initial fan base was primarily teenage girls. they were actually super uncomfortable with that and quickly distanced themselves from the teeny bopper crowd and pivoted to a more adult sound

of course the first two points about Gaza have to do with protecting Israel
“we must secure a future for Israeli children. also something something Palestinians, are you fucking happy now?”

This track is a banger. I also like the one from the THPS3 soundtrack.

not really, Biden didn’t offer shit and still won
Vedder sounds like he’s doing a bad impression of Cobain, who had that sort of low grumble to his voice but it was more subtle and natural and you could feel it was coming from a place of genuine pain. but with Vedder it just feels like an affect he’s putting on because he think it sounds cool. that phony grunge voice became so trendy and got even worse with post-grunge bands like Creed and Nickelback. Pearl Jam sucks but Creed makes Pearl Jam sound like Nirvana
