They ain’t hardcore. Fuckin poser losers.
Hardcore bands and shows and fans are the fucking worst.
I would like to point out that Banana people are always welcome at Primus concerts. Les Claypool knows how to have fun.
Primus sucks!
Harcore vocalist on a litteral stage calling somebody out for wanting to be the center of attention and suggesting they should conform is some olympian level bullshit.
The desire for nonconformity is evidently limited to the institutes this band disapproves of.
What’s really crazy is that the picture in the thumbnail is clearly outside with a plain banana suit, but the article shows a video of a sparkly banana at an inside gig, indicating that this isn’t an isolated incident of banana flavoured xenophobia.
You have multiple accounts and chose to use them all to comment the same thing?
spoiler
So if anyone was interested they are also Javi and MrGoosMoos
I have to admit, “banana flavoured xenophobia” was a good line.
True. It had to be put out into the world, no matter what it took.
Nah it said failed to post on one so I used another (its literally just pressing a button, don’t even need to rewrite the comment on blorp) removed one once I’d noticed both posted.
3 times, with 3 accounts. It had a hell of a hiccup. I don’t even have 1 spare.
Also is Blorp the app or something?
3 times? Its was twice,
unless the first account that said failed to post actually posted it twice?Checked and its definitely just the one duplicate. “Not 3 times by 3 different accounts” lol.Blorp is a fediverse client. Its not uncommon to have multiple accounts on the fediverse, due to differences in federation.
Why do you think its so egregious that I posted this comment?
I dont think the comment is egregious so calm down. I just thought it was wild that I got the same comment 3 times from 3 accounts.
It was more just a comical idea and use of alt accounts compared to the usual for upvoting your own stuff to make yourself seem popular or to use to get around bans.You just had to make sure you were seen being shocked by banana.
And, neat! I really only know my voyager and some of the web app ones and went with my instance because its pretty widely federated. I am bad at diversifying and figured this was easier.
Tap for spoiler
You should check for a comment from goosmoos since you got Javi.
Ironic that you’d tell me to calm down when you’re the one blowing this out of proportion lol, I just wanted to make a fucking joke about a banana and then suddenly faced an interrogation.
No you are reading tone that isnt there and already acting like it is an attack. It was meant to be in jest while alerting you to your duplicates and I am sorry it freaked you out.
“Banana guy, come to the front. Fk are you doing, my n*a?”
I don’t understand why young white people feel ok saying this word. (Apologies if I’m wrong, I get the sense from the bit I skimmed that it’s probably a white band. I see bodycam vids with white kids saying this all the time. Why?)
Black guy singer. The video is linked in a couple comments now.
I dont understand why youre ok with some demographic using something and others not, its a weird and divisive take.
Youre obviously ok with it in this instance, but youre still burning calories getting worked up about a scenario that isnt here.
Googling the singers or bands name would have been so much easier for you than writing your comment that just looks malplaced.

BTW, hi.
I thought music was about nonconformity?
It’s about conforming to their particular subculture.
The loudest self proclaimed non-conformists are often the biggest hypocrites.
Honestly, yeah. People usually champion what they are afraid of or what their own mind is focused on.
This idea of punishing others for what they are personally thinking is one of my least favorite human quirks. Its a very self centered reality.
What is wrong with some people?
I dont know… My general take as always is I love humanity, as the concept, but people suck.
Agent K said it best: “A person is smart. People are dumb panicky dangerous animals, and you know it.”
What kind of metal concert is it if there isn’t a guy in a silly costume moshing?? One of my most treasured memories is being in a moshpit and getting decked by a guy in a chicken costume, absolutely folded, only to get dragged to my feet by several others before I even realized I was on the ground. Community, people, community!!
Well thats not very hardcore of them at all. If i saw a banana moshing or crowd surfing id be stoked
Right? All the hardcore people I know are pretty chill and don’t take themselves to seriusly. When you start to act like you’re “sooo trve” you’re doing something wrong.
Maybe it’s a Nazi Hardcore Gig, then I can absolutely imagine that this might happen, otherwise I agree, hardcore people are usually pretty chill, moshpits usually help anyone that fell etc.
In my experience, there are definitely some overlap in the people that show up for hardcore shows. Not saying that fans of hardcore tend to be nazis, more than nazis tend to show up at said shows.
I’m reminded of that “Yoshi’s in the pit” clip from a few years ago of an Australian band’s live performance where a dude dressed as Yoshi led a mosh pit and the singer was excited that was happening.
LOL Yoshi standing as a hoard revolves around them and then they join to run in circles… Sweet.
What’s going on with the crowd delivering people to the yellow vests?
This type of music is the opposite of what I would consider enjoyable. People are weird.
People are weird. We like what we like, and no one can really understand why some people’s brains gravitate towards some things other brains are repelled by.
I’m sure I have some music tastes you and others in this thread would consider weird or off-putting (Peaches, the Canadian producer, comes to mind immediately for her overtly sexual songs and themes).
I now want a banana for scale at every metal show I go to (as long as I’m not standing behind him)
While End It has not responded to the public callout, they have quietly gone missing from a few corners of the internet. Their Facebook page has allegedly been taken down, and they no longer appear on the posters and social media posts for Hatebreed and Life of Agony’s European Tour.
May they vanish
Agreed!
With their act of bullyism, End It has effectively - and inadvertently - brought about their own end.
I’m glad the gentleman in the banana outfit is standing up for himself.
I’m also grateful for the comments by other Lemmies here.
Not only are the bullies but they’re cowards as well.
Anybody who follows a “hardcore” band like that is the worst kind of little pissant fuckweed. Then again the little shit fucks at that show who beat up a guy in a banana costume in order to get a fucking set list are exactly the kind of people I would expect to follow this kind of bullshit.
Indeed
A person in a banana suit is basically a prerequisite of any ska show. We used to have inter-punk solidarity; these guys must have not gotten the memo.
