Goodbye

To those of you who are turning up right now to protest: I am sorry. This whole campaign against Peter Bjorn and John has pushed me to what I now realize is a total mental and emotional breakdown. I haven't eaten in forty-eight hours, and the friends I am staying with have basically asked me to get out. I simply can't carry this burden any longer. I have packed up my car and am leaving town.

I started this blog to take the fight to Peter Bjorn and John. Obviously I can't claim to have won that fight, but I hope that the fight will continue without me today. Maybe someone reading this right now will decide to make the fight their own. As for those of you who like Peter Bjorn and John, who are raising them up to some sort of demigod status even as we speak -- well, you can go ahead and pile on me if you like. Call me names. Gloat. I expect nothing less from you smug indie jackals. Mark my words, though: history will smile on our side, not yours. It's cold comfort, but it's all I've got right now.

This is a sad day.

A dear brother dissenter brought this blog to me just two days ago. And today, I find the fight over, the battle lost, the cause abandoned.

I don't fault you. You were a beacon in your time. It is my prayer, however, that someone will take this torch and burn Peter Bjorn and John to the ground with it. The spark that is in all of us must give rise to flame. It's still true -- THEY MUST BE STOPPED.

Don't let the fire die today. They're awful, and dangerous, and bad for my delicate Spring soul.

Keep the faith! Let that little light shine!

"I want to be clear that my problem with Peter Bjorn and John is purely musical, not personal". Not really.

You may have taken the fight a little too far but I have to agree, they just suck. I laughed when I heard it. I thought it was a joke at first. People actually like them? In several months they will all be laughing in amazement that they ever actually liked them. I heard an inverview with them on the radio. Not only do they suck and not know it, the chick that sings with them equally sucks and they sound pretty full of themselves as well.

You know, I don't care for them either,but no matter what, you're giving them more publicity. Controversy sells.

Child cock, that's a good one.

Thank you for the entertaining read over the last week or so. Your arguments were well thought out and articulative.

It will be interesting to see how PB&J emerge from this festival. Have they achieved "buzz" or "breakout" status?

Screw all the people who called you out for being petty, "why are you protesting a band when there's a war on" and whatnot. You have performed a true service to the public with this blog.

Goodnight sweet prince.

This blogger is a nutter. His fixation on the band is most likely the result of an obsessive-compulsive disorder, a manifest symptom of which is focusing to an extreme degree on a relatively innocent person or object. In the blogger's case, he has been forsaking nourishment and, clearly, driving his Austin hosts up the wall with his mania as a result of his obsession.

He needs meds, not further attention.

this band could have sucked on its own. this wasn't necessary. the only thing worse than this blog is the PB+J music itself (if you can call it that)

THIS IS VIRAL MARKETING FOR THE BAND? OK.

You are an amazing PR guy. You got people to listen to a really really horrible band. Its not much different than the guys at Budweiser who get people to drink really really horrible beer. Maybe they should have sold Budweiser at the PB+J show?

can we start a seperate blog and hate the girl that sings with them ? i think she deserves to be hated individually, on her own blog. i just hate all of sweden now. suddenly the french don't look so bad.

Oh, my friend. It is said that i only found out today about your quest. I would most gladly have joined you in this battle against this much annoying enemy. Its is news for you probably, but i must say that the horrors of their songs have reached us even here, in Brasil, and now every rock and roll party, every indie rock DJ, and every radio station plays the songs of those like to call The 3 Little Cute Demons .

But dont worry. Your fight will go on, and we shall never rest untill rock and roll is free of this curse!

C'mon man. Give em a break. The second any indie band gets on the billboard charts, someone has to complain about it. Remember when Limp Bizkit and Incubus were all that everyone talked about?! Isn't it better that PB and J are the epitomy of what's hot now, rather than the post-grunge trash? Who cares if they fake the whistle solo, they are good pop songwriters. Just enjoy the album, they are studio band anyway. I would certainly never pay money to see em live, i'm on your side for that. But jeez, someone always has to bitch right.

Anonymous said...

I love real/fake/ PR campaigns that have a sense of humour to them...but I get the feeling that this blog is being serious. Can you even call what they do lip-syncing? In the young folks song it almost plays more like a sample than an actual whistle. Plenty of other indie bands do the same thing while playing live and not being able to replicate parts of a song concurrently... look for the ubiquitos Apple Macbook off on the side of the stage playing right along with the band... it's nothing new. If Pete Bjorn and John were trying to cover up their "lip synching" they are doing a pretty poor job because when they played on CONAN O'BRIEN on national television... he sang over the whistling too.

what a waste of time.

koosa said...

have you actually listened to "Writer's Block". It's a great album. There's no denying it. That's why they're popular, fool. Because they're GOOD. They're a hell of alot better than this blog, that's for sure.

Good riddance.

VIRAL MARKETING FOR THE BAND.

Marc said...

how cute, a blog set up against a band you don't like. you have wasted a lot of effort and energy in campaigning against PBJ, shame you don't put your energies into campaigning about something that actually matters. Darfur, Zimbabwe, Global Warming, Bush etc

Anonymous said...

How Cute. Marc listed all of the world's real problems for us. I'm sure none of us realized anything was wrong out there in the world. Everybody applaud Marc! Hooray for Marc because he is so above and beyond things like this silly little site. Marc doesn't see the humor here. Marc says all you pathetic losers out there should think about Africa 24-7 and not take 5 minutes out of your day for anything fun or humorous. Just like our hero Marc does, because he is so much better than everybody else because all he ever thinks about all day long is Darfur, Zimbabwe, Global Warming, Bush etc.

Well wait, I don't understand. Why was our crusading hero here in the first place? Is there some tragedy or human suffering on this blog site Marc will uncover for us? I'm sure we all anxiously await Marc's explanation for his time spent here at the Stop Peter Bjorn and John site? Was this some type of humanitarian aide visit? I guess someone here is starving or is politically oppressed. Does human trafficking take place here? I imagine Marc will uncover these tragedies for us in time. I notice you didn't mention Iraq in your little tirade, Marc. What's the matter? You don't care about our troops? You don't want to see an end to the war? Don't you care about the loss of innocent life? Innocent Iraqi women and children being killed means nothing to you? Thats not cute at all Marc!

All your crap may fly with some little freshman girl Marc, but you should think twice before throwing out some self righteous shit like that to the general public. All that save the world shit could get you laid. But a lot of your adoring fans out here heard it all before. And we aren't impressed.

Sigh... I haven't researched them much, so I don't know if what you are saying is true, but I do like them. Way to go for everybody here who is just swearing and throwing flames around. Just because nobody knows who you are on a comment wall doesn't mean you should act like an ass. Don't hate them unless you've heard the whole album. I play guitar, and I admit their music isn't very complex or groundbreaking. I do think the lyrics are good and that they make up for the overall simplicity of the songs.

Anonymous said...

Amen and Halleigh-Friggin-Lluia. There is actually somebody else out there who thinks these guys suck. I don't understand the attraction. I hear them played all of the time and the D.J.'s cream all over themselves whevner they talk about them. I heard a live in-studio performance and it sounded like 2 cats fucking a football.

Anonymous said...

This is all fun stuff. They've been around for ages, being musicians, not getting much of anywhere. So they aren't the Pussy Cat Dolls.

Its an interesting idea that an 'indie' music needs to be shown up as marketed schlock, like say, those Dolls.

Maybe it makes sense. The top five selling albums here recently featured Modest Mouse and Arcade Fire.

Is the author really fighting against the mainstreaming of indie music? Maybe. Peter Bjorn and John may be as good a choice as any, maybe, but certainly not better.

I think of all the marketing effort that went into Buck 65 here a couple of years ago. I've seen nary an ad for PB&J.

At my work, everyone I know is enjoying them.
But if that's your fight is for good taste, you're doomed. The Pussy Cat Dolls will still sell more albums.

Anonymous said...

It is quite obvious that this blog and possibly some of the comments are written by the band, or at least by someone who has something to do with the promotion of the band.

the dead give away is seen already in the title of the blog. Only a swede would write "the swedish band". Swedes have some sort of rediculous pride of coming from "such a small country, that produces good music and perfroms so well in sports". If the writers of the blog were american they would never mention the fact that the band is swedish - nobody cares. (and besides, if the authors were american they would probably think the band was american). Transparent, but obviously a succesful "gerilla" campaign.

I have discovered, loved, resented, and hated Peter Bjorn and John in the span of four hours.

Somebody sent me a link to "Young Folks" and after listening to it on loop for about an hour, i thought "wow this is genius!".. maybe it was my fever.

So i went to their myspace, liked the songs, and i noticed that they have a show in Hoboken (where i live) on the fifth, but it's sold out! *akk!*

in my misery, i proceeded to look at their live videos and discovered they're just another pretetious post-blur band capitalising on the world's obsession with bland eurocrap (i have nothing against european music, my favorite band is sigur ros).. i mean there are so many good european bands out there!

Dude, you SERIOUSLY need to get a life. Go outside, take a deep breath, and find a POSITIVE way to release some of those obvious deep-seated mental hang ups you have. There is more to life than being infatuated with a Swedish Indie-Pop group. Oh, by the way, they are heading to Austin RIGHT NOW! Why don't you buy a ticket, stand right up front and see if they are lip-synching.

dancemouth said...

You're right. Bands do come and go, and PBJ probably won't be the sensation they are now in a year or two. What I don't understand is why you thought you needed to try to make it happen faster, why you felt that this is a personal problem, and why you let yourself become obsessed something so ridiculously trivial. If PBJ reflect on you as an indie-listener, don't top-40 bands reflect on the entire United States? Isn't Britney Spears also ruining your life, or Justin Timberlake?

Your arguments are good, and well-written, but your logic is insane, and all of this makes it clear that you really, desperately need help.

Incidentally, I love the band.

You are a complete moron. So what, they air-whistled on Young Folks. Do you really give a crap if a singer can whistle? Do you know how many HUGE bands have an extra rythym guitarist playing on the side of the stage, but with the band taking 100% of the credit. Or how many HUGE bands have prompters with the lyrics in front of the lead singer. These things happen all the time - to your favorite bands too!! Peter, Bjorn & John put on a great live show... sounds better live than their CD.

Stephane said...

Wow! I am amazed to see that this band has created so much sparks. As I don't own a radio (as pretty much everything on it is crap) I only came across Peter Bjorn & John a few weeks ago whilst watching a documentary. After looking into it, I discovered that they were Swedish and somehow was not surprised to hear that once again the world ends up with the worse that comes out of Sweden (the Hives ?!?). Although I do like that annoying tune and the video, I must admit that the rest of the album is merely inteteresting and I totally agree that the whistling is lipsynched (as seen live on Jonathan Ross's last night, British TV) but aren't most band played on Radio lipsynched? Dude don't despair, this band will disappear as quickly as it came :)

peter bjorn and john are just the latest in a long long line of bands capitalizing on the hard work and originality of a scene of dedicated artists who make music from the heart and the gut...
remember the strokes? moses leroy? plastic bertrand?the raspberries? the monkees?
it's a sad phenomenon but it's part and parcel of the music business.
and sure their music is kind of pointless and vapid. it's also catchy as hell but it sure ain't gonna start a revolution.

seems all this trouble to defend the title of indie is kinda self-defeating. will people be defending the title of "indie" well after corporations have thoroughly taken it over, decreeing who's really indie and who's not by who they listen to? the punks are still trying that, and i must say it's a bit of a downhill battle.
any organization of sound that follows some kind of tempo is music, and trying to use "valid" arguments to decree one as better than the other is as useless as arguing that one color is better than the other; there is no real answer, it's all opinion. just let them do what they want, obviously there are people who hate them, and those people won't care what big shows they play, or whatever.

LET PEOPLE LIKE THE MUSIC THEY FUCKING LIKE, ALL RIGHT? God. Seriously. I don't like a lot of bands, but I don't try to stop them with reasons that make absolutely no sense whatsoever. Let them get their fame because they obviously deserve it somewhat. Granted, a lot of artists don't, but at least they get it. I'm not a jealous asshole such as yourself who tries to stop a band that you call "catchy". What the hell is that? If you're calling it catchy, I bet you have it in your head a few times or another and caught yourself whistling it a few times.

Don't be a prick. Let people like what music they like. How would you like it if someone said, "Well, you music is super catchy, but I'm pretty sure you're never allowed to get popular." In fact, I bet you're one of those pretentious assholes who thinks you love music so much that nobody is allowed to like what you like. I bet you like Peter Bjorn and John, but don't want people to know what you're talking about when you say you went to their show last week. Now, I'm not saying that you actually are a scenester music-hoarder who wants "nothing to do with the mainstream media", but after reading your blog, this is all I can sense. Thank you for entertaining me for a little while.

Prick.

I'm glad you had emotional stress over this because people who actually have talent such as these guys WORK HARD to make people like their music. So fuck you for tainting their hard work.

im just wondering why you care so much. why dont you just not listen to them? this is really really juvenile, spend your time a little more wisely. or just leave town and dont come back :)

Eliezer Silva said...

this whole thing in this blog is really funny... this guy really thought he could stop a band??
lamest thing in the world... he should try to stop some painter too, or a writer, or an actor/actress??
LOL.
But I admire you, protect the indie-rock music reputation, let's compile a list of bands/artists that shouldn't be called indie and start trying to stop them too... it's quite a honorable task. Hail!!

to appreciate any music, first you must appreciate ALL music, even if you think its crap, somebody somewhere, thinks its great. Let people make their own choices and judgements about this music my friend and worry yourself about something that matters.
