Really, how can indie music fans, especially fans from Seattle, support this group anymore? Not only because of their shilling for corporate criminal Walmart, but also because of their aggressive trash-talking about indie rock audiences. Bridwell has said for the record that he'll be happier playing arena rock for drunken dads someday, and I really hope he gets his wish, so we won't have to read about Band Of Whorses in the indie press anymore.

His comments were quoted a bunch of places. Here's one:

http://music.guardian.co.uk/rock/story/0,,2219076,00.html#article_continue

"The internet's brought the worst out in indie-rock fans. I mean that night, the crowd didn't move - all they cared about was YouTubing. And bloggers are perpetually stuck in junior year of high school. I know it's only a small percentage of the record-buying public that we're trying to reach, but fucking cull the herd and get rid of them."

"Fill our gigs with drunk dads and babies."

"Not be a shitty indie-rock band ever again. We're going to make this a monster!"
