if I'm being completely honest, October is gonna be Fuzz vs Deafheaven for me, the other 2 are merely honourable mentions.
I won't lie, as much as I enjoy Deafheaven, I'm having a tough time reconciling that with the epic amounts of hate speech Kerry McCoy apparently used to dole out via Twitter.
Edit: also with the way it's been ignored by lots of people in the music media simply because Deafheaven are the critical darlings of the moment.
Or because the story is bullshit. The email that was sent to the press provided deadlinks to the tweets and they only evidence is easyily photoshopped screenshots

Eh, I don't know yet - nor does anyone - that it's bullshit. McCoy's account is private, so people can't just jump in there and see it. Supposedly MetalSucks and others have asked for Twitter's archives to see if there's anything there.
Edit: also, some of the people he allegedly tossed those slurs at have apparently confirmed on Twitter that it happened:
For what it's worth, it looks like a) McCoy is friends with these dudes, and b) they claim to not care that he called them that, even though they are gay - even though whether or not they're offended really isn't the point, I guess.
FWIW I've been following Kerry McCoy on Twitter for two years now (before he made his account private) and never saw him tweet anything offensive. Also, If you look through that guy's tweets he has called Kerry that word at least fifty times. It seems like they're good friends
Considering you've found the need to respond to my threads as if you are threatened by me I offer you some peace my confused counterpart. May you find peace in your restless soul.
Really just getting around to listening to the Bob Moses album. I think I waited so long to listen because it's a terrible band name, but this album is killer. I wouldn't change my vote, but this definitely deserves an HM.

Fortunately I think of Bob Moses the civil rights leader, but the name is still weird for me.
The duo needed a name for their project. They told me they took "Bob Moses" from the famous Depression-era New York architect, but the story changes depending on who asks: they've also claimed the name comes from Andy Warhol's hair stylist and an old gym teacher of theirs in elementary school.

I didn't realize Robert Moses went by "Bob." That's a name so shitty I kinda don't ever want to listen to them again.
I never would have made the Robert Moses city planner connection without reading that article (which was the result of a search on information about a band with the terrible name bob moses).

I had googled it too. I was like "why are two guys not named Bob in a band called Bob Moses?" I just don't think it's a good band name. It would be like naming your band Howard Taft.
A listened to a lot of music this month. Some others I enjoyed were Disclosure (apparently one of the few), Chvrches, Duran Duran, Travis Scott, The Main Squeeze, Ryan Adams 1989, New Order, Kurt Vile, Steven A Clark, and The Avener (french deep house, as described by spotify). I had never heard of FIDLAR, Ought, Battles, Dead Weather or JR JR before coming here, and they were all alright. I couldn't get into Lana Del Rey or Beirut, and I didn't even finish the Drake/Future collab.
