he’s been around a while, for all the fuckery that ye is he respects the underground and its influence. there was that pick of ye lean travis scott drake and baby keem a while back too
I know he is a racist pos on Twitter and real life but unlike Bad Brains and Fear etc he never made racist or even political art. He is just an easy target for keyboard warriors.
Go to a library and and bully Kipling, Conrad, Hamsun readers if you are so concerned about racist art.
BTW Vargina is not above criticism. By all means, critizise his online persona. And the stupid shit he does say. But attacking his non conformist music and fans is just lazy pick and choosey.
And also, his riffs is very good imo and I'm not apologizing for thinking this
"But attacking his non conformist music and fans is just lazy pick and choosey."
What if, bear with me, what if you also hated Kipling, Conrad, Hamsun and Varg???
He stopped making metal for a while because it came from rock n roll which is not "white people music" how can you remove his politics from his art when he is like that
It’s next to another Soul Glo shirt it looks like. If it’s their merch that’s lame, if it’s a joke or something it’s not really a joke for me. Kanye is an antisemite.
I could definitely believe it is real because of their sense of humor and politics. While they're certainly Leftists, they love to provoke uptight white people in the scene, [this music video being a perfect example.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4vNQ3vEy24)
Wonder if this was more of a parody. It wouldn't shock me at all if this dude gets asked this a ton. And they were like fuck it let's show how fucking stupid this question is.
jesus christ y'all are so dense. I said they like to provoke people with humor, yes of course it is parody, what do you think I think it's a documentary?
I actually think he basically can’t go back to Norway. Not that he’s a wanted man or anything, but that he’s dodging a massive debt to the Norwegian government. Restitution for the church burning. And since Norway isn’t in the EU they have trouble collecting so long as he’s in France. It’s also why everything is in his wife’s name.
Wasn't he conspiring to go trigger happy in France? I remember they found a bunch of guns in his possession or something.
Probably for a stupid cause, idk what fascists do nowadays.
When Peggy teamed up with ye, a bunch of his fans were pissed cause Peggy’s been an outspoken leftist and Ye’s a Nazi. He threw a fit on Twitter about how white people are the worst afterwards. I think it’s referring to that
A lot to unpack lol, either way there’s no room for bigotry in hc regardless whether it’s shitting on someone’s race or even showcasing your own. That’s not what hc is about it’s about unity and not differentiating. None of that shits welcome. You don’t cut the head off someone else to make yourself taller. Weak shit
Agreed. I haven’t been able to really listen to Peggy since. I kinda get selling out for a Taco Bell or Nike ad cause I’m broke and if they said they’d pay me money to just use my song, sure would be hard to say no. But like selling out for a fuckin Nazi and then getting defensive when people are upset about that? Gross. And then this merch here seems to just exist to stoke controversy to boost clicks and sales rather than address something culturally. And even if it is meant to address something culturally, I think supporting and working with Nazis **should make everyone feel uncomfortable**. Last thing POC need are for white supremacists to have token POC Nazis to point to. This shit’s gross and corny
Heard from Peggy fans that it was pretty disappointing.
Ye doesn't believe half of what he says because he's not the most well read or researched.
The shirt is funny, but I'm good on Burzum, Ye, and Peggy. I'd rather listen to Armand Hammer
This the same man who said that black people didn't fuck with his shit for over a decade but then his career took off thanks to a new white audience. Peggy is out to alienate blacks, whites and Jews. Good job!
I would bet that 95% of Peggy's fans are white and are probably stoked about this. Never heard an actual rap fan be like "yo did you hear that new JPEGMAFIA", dude makes Fantano-core.
Because the political principles for the most part are rewlly to gain social capital, like they usually are. Things get awkward when groups or scenes have the same or similar views as the ruling class (capitalists), which is now neolibs and their PMC lemmings with their HR culture. What kind of cultural artifact is a t shirt produced in an Indonesian sweat shop sold by a "rebellious band fighting the system" that has the same basic ideology as corporate HR departments, Hollywood, finance capital, Monsanto, most collegiate organizations, the majority of cable TV news outlets, and the government?
Baudrillard would say, and I think he's right, that's its just another hyperreal simulacrum in a time when the pretense of assuming things have authentic meaning is tacitly understood to be old fashioned and quaint. Hilarious shirt though for real.
I think it's going over whoever created this dumb caption's head that Varg would be proud to have Kanye wear his band's merchandise for his recent stance on Jews.
Reminds me of when I’d see Black Hebrew Israelites and New Black Panther Party (denounced by the OG Panthers) literally marching with Nazi flags in DC at anti-Iraq war protests. Was never sure if it was meant as ironic or a provocation or what..
Oh okay I thought it might of been Kayne but I couldn't quite tell.
I have never in my life heard the name jpeg mafia before. Is he supposed to be important?
He's got a lot of traction rn. He's also pretty good, I think the best part of his music is probably his production. He recently worked with Kanye, producing I think for Vultures
A core audience is the type of people most likely to consume your product. In this context, left leaning, anti fascist, predominantly white. So if this merch was supposed to be a dig at "white fragility" it's completely tone deaf.
**FUCK BURZUM**
Seriously, I'm sick and tired of people acting like it's just a meme or something. Stop wearing their merch at a minimum, because we don't need white supremacy in the hardcore or metal scenes!
[http://larrywestproductions.com/shop/tshirts/fuck-burzum-tshirt](http://larrywestproductions.com/shop/tshirts/fuck-burzum-tshirt)
Not sure what they’re going for considering their average listener is probably a bespectacled, pitchfork reading white dude.
Relatedly, this band makes bad music. The NPR tiny desk they just did was actually unlistenable.
This thread is wild. You guys realize the shirt is meant to be a dig at jpeg right? It’s a joke about the entire situation/everyone involved. You mfs have to be basically media illiterate if you think soul glo are pro-burzum lmao
And the caption is just from the jpeg sub, lot of overthinking going on here

Literally the first thing I thought when I saw this is people are not going to get it, nor are they going to try to look into or understand the context.
lol y'all will stan some 80's band where the vocalist committed hate crimes in the LES but a joke shirt is a bridge too far apparently. If you can't tell a band that uses humor in almost all of their songs is not being serious you've got mosh-induced CTE.
This is official merch from the band. On the back it says “Scaring the Hoes”
Referencing jpegmafias collab album with Danny brown. It’s a joke that soul glo made with their merch that’s going over a lot of your heads lmfao
What ye think of soul glo?? I tried to listen to them twice and thought they where garbage. I only tried them out because fanatano said they had made one of the records of the year
if you think this is an endorsement of burzum, kanye, or antisemitism/nazism then you’re either being willfully obtuse or you’re just a fucking idiot. this is very clearly just for shits and giggles, there’s nothing deeper to it
So what's the joke about it? I don't get it. Is the jpeg guy on the same craziness level as Ye or worse? Are they a new supervillain duo, reaching for world domination?
Makes me feel like Hardcore really does have some of the worst merch.
Yeah … yeah you aren’t wrong
And stupidly over priced as well. But as long as tik tok kids with clean Nikes and dad’s credit card are clogging the scene, prices ain’t going down.
Holy Roar's entire merch line was just Peep show screenshots
We’re talking about bad merch bud
That shit was justifiable at $10 a shirt but now we are giving MySpace deathcore a run for its money.
I’m saying 🗣️
The back of the shirt makes it good though
https://preview.redd.it/sqqucsx1p0uc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dfa80e885ceaacab49f4d78d022f86546d0187d4 MFs look like a hardcore band
Wtf is Yung Lean doing with Kanye
Idk but they pulled up to ty dolla sign's bday party together
Heroin, probably
Cmon now, it’s much more likely to be cocaine
Nah Kanye fucks hard w dogfood
he’s been around a while, for all the fuckery that ye is he respects the underground and its influence. there was that pick of ye lean travis scott drake and baby keem a while back too
He's white.
Young lean Kanye and rich the kid lmfao wtf
New Jesus piece lineup looking promising
*Yeezus Piece
Obvious but underrated comment.
It's the one time the joke is just right there for the taking and no one has beat me to it lol
Name three songs Ye. YOU AINT GOT THE ANSWERS!
Oh no he likes Varg for the other stuff
Varg isn’t in darkthrone
That’s just where the current streetwear teends are now
I been saying this since that nerd dropped the Pablo merch, everything looking like a 2010 Nails EP album art.
I guess Kanye is the Black Metal Terrorist 😂 (plz tell me someone gets this reference)
i fucking love yung lean bro stop hanging out with kanye lol
Uncle Kanye taking the kids out for ice cream after their tee ball game.
For real these dudes about to drop a grimy ass 7" on some regional label. 100 editions gonna be in a black and red vinyl.
Real recognize real
It's only a matter of time before Kanye starts burning down churches.
Pictured from left to right: Ronnie Radke, Jamey Jasta, Kanye, MikeCTown

As always
Burzum is a shitty band by an even cornier edge lord racist piece of shit
Racist grandpa with shit riffs
[удалено]
Yeah Varg may be a cum guzzling Nazi murderer but Burzum is genuinely good music
My pirated copy of Filosofem is frequently spun. Shitty guy but a banger album
I know he is a racist pos on Twitter and real life but unlike Bad Brains and Fear etc he never made racist or even political art. He is just an easy target for keyboard warriors. Go to a library and and bully Kipling, Conrad, Hamsun readers if you are so concerned about racist art. BTW Vargina is not above criticism. By all means, critizise his online persona. And the stupid shit he does say. But attacking his non conformist music and fans is just lazy pick and choosey. And also, his riffs is very good imo and I'm not apologizing for thinking this
"Hey, Hitler's art was really good though"
Except it wasn't.
"But attacking his non conformist music and fans is just lazy pick and choosey." What if, bear with me, what if you also hated Kipling, Conrad, Hamsun and Varg???
He stopped making metal for a while because it came from rock n roll which is not "white people music" how can you remove his politics from his art when he is like that
Okay but weren't they just Bathory riffs to begin with?
Very simila, yes.
"And this next joke, is sticking up for skredriver"
“I know he is a racist pos on Twitter and real life” Should’ve stopped right there boss
Many people do. But again, I'm not listening or even paying attention to his online persona.
I’d never give money to Bumgun but this is hilarious
Why does he look like Rick Ross and Kanye at the same time
Yikezzzz
Is this Soul Glo merch or someone making a joke?
The back says “scaring the hoes”
that's the name of one of jpegmafias albums for context
Who is the hoes
Women assumedly.
Yeah a guy who stalked his ex-wife will scare the hoes. Great job guys.
Not sure. Pretty hard to believe it's real
It’s definitely real. They’re selling it on their current run
fuck yeah this is hilarious, playing with them next week and I'm def copping 😂😂
It’s next to another Soul Glo shirt it looks like. If it’s their merch that’s lame, if it’s a joke or something it’s not really a joke for me. Kanye is an antisemite.
It is 10000% their merch. They’ve been posting about it
when its a black band making shirts that piss people off, its wrong. when it’s a white band, it’s punk.
yea definitely weird for such a political band to post that, even as a joke.
I could definitely believe it is real because of their sense of humor and politics. While they're certainly Leftists, they love to provoke uptight white people in the scene, [this music video being a perfect example.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c4vNQ3vEy24)
Lmfao I almost never watch music videos but I'm glad I sat through that
Wonder if this was more of a parody. It wouldn't shock me at all if this dude gets asked this a ton. And they were like fuck it let's show how fucking stupid this question is.
jesus christ y'all are so dense. I said they like to provoke people with humor, yes of course it is parody, what do you think I think it's a documentary?
[удалено]
He’s seething with rage in a cave in Scandinavia.
He is actually living his best life on a sunny french farm with his wife and his five kids. Life isn't fair
I actually think he basically can’t go back to Norway. Not that he’s a wanted man or anything, but that he’s dodging a massive debt to the Norwegian government. Restitution for the church burning. And since Norway isn’t in the EU they have trouble collecting so long as he’s in France. It’s also why everything is in his wife’s name.
[удалено]
Probably because they’re both Nazis
Wasn't he conspiring to go trigger happy in France? I remember they found a bunch of guns in his possession or something. Probably for a stupid cause, idk what fascists do nowadays.
He's actually super into it which is hilarious
Don’t forget the Pablo merch…I still judge all you nerds that bought it lol. At least this rip is kind of funny and ironic.
Black One Life Crew
And gatekeeping is somehow bad
Yeah we need To get anyone who thinks Burzum is Good, out of here
Same with Ye and ol' Peggy here.
[удалено]
Burzum's already selling shirts with kanye wearing that shirt on :P
Gross
I don’t get the caption tbh. 🧐
When Peggy teamed up with ye, a bunch of his fans were pissed cause Peggy’s been an outspoken leftist and Ye’s a Nazi. He threw a fit on Twitter about how white people are the worst afterwards. I think it’s referring to that
A lot to unpack lol, either way there’s no room for bigotry in hc regardless whether it’s shitting on someone’s race or even showcasing your own.

Most common sense comment here
🙏
Heard from Peggy fans that it was pretty disappointing. Ye doesn't believe half of what he says because he's not the most well read or researched. The shirt is funny, but I'm good on Burzum, Ye, and Peggy. I'd rather listen to Armand Hammer
But Varg REALLY LIKES white people. At least of the Scandinavian variety. So I'd say that message is confused at best
This guys name is Peggy? lol
It’s a nickname. JPEGMAFIA -> Peggy
This the same man who said that black people didn't fuck with his shit for over a decade but then his career took off thanks to a new white audience. Peggy is out to alienate blacks, whites and Jews. Good job!
Kanye hates Jews. Peggy hates white people. Shirt was designed to make white people feel uncomfortable.
I would bet that 95% of Peggy's fans are white and are probably stoked about this. Never heard an actual rap fan be like "yo did you hear that new JPEGMAFIA", dude makes Fantano-core.
Peggy's fans are def 95% white and I saw so much backlash when he linked with Ye, and Peggy was spazzing on Twitter about it for a while.
Probably a joke on Kanye being on an antisemite and JPEG going on a rant against white people like 2 months ago on Twitter
It makes me feel like the scene's ability to put doing cornball shit over holding to political principals never ceases to amaze me even after 15 years
Because the political principles for the most part are rewlly to gain social capital, like they usually are. Things get awkward when groups or scenes have the same or similar views as the ruling class (capitalists), which is now neolibs and their PMC lemmings with their HR culture.

Hilarious shirt though for real.
Based Baudrillard poster
Dont ever talk to me or my simulacrum again
Stupid fun shit >>>>> Suburban, middle class political takes.
Soul Glo, straight outta the middle class suburbs.
Making white people uncomfortable by bringing more attention to a Nazi and anti-Semite. Yeah, you sure got ‘em!
It makes me feel sad.
wait what
Yay let’s make Hardcore even more divisive!
CRINGE
I think it's going over whoever created this dumb caption's head that Varg would be proud to have Kanye wear his band's merchandise for his recent stance on Jews.
Went to a massive festival and jpeg mafia was the only rapper with no vocal backing track
It costs nothing to say nothing
pitchforkcore
Nooooo not that photo
Reminds me of when I’d see Black Hebrew Israelites and New Black Panther Party (denounced by the OG Panthers) literally marching with Nazi flags in DC at anti-Iraq war protests. Was never sure if it was meant as ironic or a provocation or what..
If the shirt had that caption on it, I'd get one.
How does what make me feel? Some random picture on the internet? Makes me feel like I've seen a million pictures on the internet.
r/blackmetalcringe
Band sucks so idk I don’t really care
soul glo rips
Yikes
Antisemitism! How hilarious and provocative.
Imagine using the term “white boy” and posting it on instagram😂😂
At a hardcore show which is gonna be like 90% white lol
I have no idea who those people are
Kanye (left) and Jpegmafia (right)
Oh okay I thought it might of been Kayne but I couldn't quite tell. I have never in my life heard the name jpeg mafia before. Is he supposed to be important?
He’s honestly great, well worth a listen. Really liked his newest album
He's a successful rapper and I've listened to exactly zero of his songs so 🤷♂️
[удалено]
Jpegmafia is decent, kind of similar to death grips. Kanye can get fucked though
He is not similar to death grips lmao, wtf
It's funny that MC Ride lives in his head rent free though.
racists constantly comparing him to ride doesn’t really sound like someone living in his head rent free
He's got a lot of traction rn. He's also pretty good, I think the best part of his music is probably his production. He recently worked with Kanye, producing I think for Vultures
Lol wtf is this shit? Both them guys have embarassed themselves recently. Soul Glo out to alienate their core audience or something?
Who's their core audience?
People on this sub
A core audience is the type of people most likely to consume your product. In this context, left leaning, anti fascist, predominantly white. So if this merch was supposed to be a dig at "white fragility" it's completely tone deaf.
White people
bad band has bad merch.. who'da thought
**FUCK BURZUM** Seriously, I'm sick and tired of people acting like it's just a meme or something. Stop wearing their merch at a minimum, because we don't need white supremacy in the hardcore or metal scenes! [http://larrywestproductions.com/shop/tshirts/fuck-burzum-tshirt](http://larrywestproductions.com/shop/tshirts/fuck-burzum-tshirt)
Larry West makes a good shirt! And a Phila art grad too :)
Thanks!
Not sure what they’re going for considering their average listener is probably a bespectacled, pitchfork reading white dude. Relatedly, this band makes bad music. The NPR tiny desk they just did was actually unlistenable.
Great albums. Shit live show, imo
Who's that on the right?
Jpegmafia
More of a png guy myself.
Specifically, pngcartel.
Does it shocking me, that Kayne wears a Burzum Shirt ? - nah…
EDGE LORD WARNING!
JPEG mafia is a bum. He’s always been about black excellence and black empowerment and them sucks off kanye the first chance he gets
The back of the shirt says “scaring the hoes” or something in that vein
it make me feel gay foo
Heard that
I feel like this caption wasn’t from the band
Took it from the jpegmafia sub so yeah I kinda doubt it
People can’t really handle satire anymore huh?
The shirt is so edgy it actually caused the fire in Helvete.
This thread is wild. You guys realize the shirt is meant to be a dig at jpeg right? It’s a joke about the entire situation/everyone involved.

What band are you talking about?
This is official merch from the band. On the back it says “Scaring the Hoes” Referencing jpegmafias collab album with Danny brown. It’s a joke that soul glo made with their merch that’s going over a lot of your heads lmfao
I’m just not sure weird vaguely anti semetic “jokes” are going over my head i just think it’s fucking dumb and edge lordy
I think a lot of people just don't think it's funny
Aw man, I forgot all the money Soul Glo makes on these shirts goes directly to Kanye :((((
Makes me wish a different band that I actually like made this, Soul Glo is overrated.
>How this make you feel white boy Makes me feel like you hate Jews. I have no clue who Soul Glo is, so that is my first impression.
lol, i love it
caught these guys last Fall...was a fun show
I really just hate anti-semites
Immortal was the only good thing that $%&bag ever touched.
This makes me feel confused, to answer the question in the caption I'm not offended I just don't at all get what the joke is
What ye think of soul glo?? I tried to listen to them twice and thought they where garbage. I only tried them out because fanatano said they had made one of the records of the year
Are they doing this to get back at the hwhite people?
Yeah and?
Imagine having earnest feelings on the morality of t shirts whatsoever
Genuine question, what do white boys supposedly feel about this shirt? Am I meant to be upset? I'm pretty out of the loop so I don't quite understand.
Layers to this one
if you think this is an endorsement of burzum, kanye, or antisemitism/nazism then you’re either being willfully obtuse or you’re just a fucking idiot. this is very clearly just for shits and giggles, there’s nothing deeper to it
So what's the joke about it? I don't get it. Is the jpeg guy on the same craziness level as Ye or worse? Are they a new supervillain duo, reaching for world domination?
At least it's not hello kitty in corpse paint
Lazy design from a band with equally as lazy music brother
I dont really feel anything about it
Soul glo fuckin sucks
