he really is the ugliest human on earth right now

blood visions is one of the best records of the past 10 years. looking forward to the Maxwell's show
Posted by Anonymous | September 9, 2008 10:22 PM
ugh...blood visions isnt very good...the live versions are MUCH better.
that said, this got old real fast. doesnt help that jay is a douche.
Posted by Anonymous | September 9, 2008 10:51 PM
Bloodvisions might not even be in the top 100 of 2006, let alone the last 10 years. Early Reatards is alot better then the faux british accent opera metal punk of modern Jay.

hope that Matador money is well invested Jay Reatard, because your ship sure is sinkin fast
Posted by Anonymous | September 10, 2008 2:04 AM
actually his ship is staying afloat quite well for the time being.

The Magazine HOLLYWOOD GOSSIP reported he has a profile on a site "[ ____Seeking40plus COM_____ ]" I believe it's totally a rumor ,but recenty his dating photos always appear there , who knows the truth?

Jay is the best writer in rock right now. You dorks dont like it- crank up the Okkervil!

jay reatard = the new meatloaf
Posted by Anonymous | September 10, 2008 9:38 AM
tight pop songs. tons of hooks. I don't really know what's not to like. That being said, I don't really see what's to like about all the silly dance rock bands with neon colored clothes that are generally featured on this site.

FOR EVERYONE WHO SAID HE IS AN ASSHOLE
(possibly because he hook'd some sucker in the face?)
Welcome to punk, you sorry saps.
His shows aren't designed for stiffs like you to stand motionless with your arms crossed.
His music is violent and fast
Ever been to a basement/garage punk/hardcore show?
I'm sure thats where his band started-and only progressed to venues larger than your neighbors basement- keeping the same mentality.
Pull your head out of your ass!

you're kidding right?
Jay's music is the gayest version of punk/garage I've ever heard.
Candysnatchers would eat this poodle for lunch.

I think it's funny that the people that hate Jay actually know the guy and the people who stick up for him are just fans that have never seen him all fucked up and being a douchebag and constantly trying to be the center of attention by doing stupid, gay or mean things. He's punched way more people at shows than what you see on Youtube and he's ditched way more shows than the one you read about on all the blogs.
Not everything is documented for the internet.
That Meatloaf comparison was spot-on.

Could this be karma? I think so.

GODDAMN IT PEOPLE. BAT OUT OF HELL IS A GREAT RECORD STOP COMPARING HIM TO MEAT LOAF.
Posted by Louis Penis Cartographer | September 10, 2008 1:43 PM
I don't think I've ever been in a conversation where people who actually know Jay Reatard were talking about him where the phrase "huge asshole" didn't come up.
It used to be that his music was solid enough to almost make you forget how much of a self-obsessed, childish piece of shit he his, but these days his new stuff is just so weak that it's looking pretty grim for Jay's career.
Posted by Anonymous | September 10, 2008 2:04 PM
That See Saw song on the download is pretty lame and cliched. Turns out without the manic energy he used to have, Jay is just a hack.
I'm going to guess he reads this and goes out and does a huge pile of coke to compensate.

how many punks sign to indie rock labels and open for fucking SPOON?
jay reatard ain't punk, thank god. the kind of music people define as punk is even more terrible than the stuff people describe as "indie rock".
for awhile there, jay reatard was making some good, angry, interesting, desperate-sounding (in a good way) rock music that fell somewhere in the middle.
his new stuff is just impotent and limp though, and the rumors about him being a whiny, self-obsessed asshole are totally true.
time to abandon this guy's ship. it's over. done in by big-cash-advance fueled ego, cocaine, a bad attitude, too many cheeseburgers, and general megalomaniac hubris.

it's funny how people read rumors on blogs and then go leave comment after comment parroting what they read as if they were the authority. you people are not music fans, you are gossip girls.
Posted by Anonymous | September 10, 2008 5:59 PM
rumors? hardly. The unflattering stories about Jay Reatard are largely fact.
It's the people who know him who are dissing the guy on this thing. The defenders are clueless losers and Jay himself posting incognito.

One of my friends knows him quite well - he's definitely got a lot of problems and is pretty destructive, even to those closest to him.
Posted by Anonymous | September 10, 2008 9:53 PM
"welcome to punk"
??????
hahaha funny, since you were probably 5 years old when punk died.
Jay isn't punk. He IS a punk, but he's not punk. There's a difference.

Among the variety of features incorporated into modern watches are: self-winding mechanisms, substitution of an electrochemical cell for the mechanical mainspring, and several forms of electromechanical escapement in place of the balance-and-hairspring mechanism.See also replica watches
