      boertush Might be because he does really good interviews and researches a lot and brings gifts and shit.

      @j_freed 7 років тому +36

      boertush - now he showers them with more gifts instead of putting them so on guard. But the cutting intimate nature of questions really makes the interview subject react in a way they were not expecting, good or bad.

      Then I wonder what that would make Joan Jett's cliche? Cause the only thing I noticed about her in that interview was that he made her giggle a lot, and she was very cute and friendly- which seems to go against her image in a good way.

      It's completely cringey. If Lydia was actual punk or someone important it would come off here. It's proving the exact opposite, that she was an insecure "scenester" back in the day who hung around with the "cool" crowd, and acted hard and like she didn't give a fuck because she's punk! YA Man! She's a complete poser who doesn't even know who she really is or what art or music she actually likes. It's only what's edgy and cool.

      No.. That's BS: they aren't "acting" - they're being themselves. And "women" "posturing like a pair of outcast teens going through a serious rebellion phase"?

They're two silly women who sound like they haven't evolved a lick past the eleventh grade. Their behavior is cringe worthy, especially because they're adults. Adults who look like they're in their 40's and 50's here. You can have "ideals" without looking like the poster child of 90's teen cynicism. And was that music question supposed to be a jab of some sort? lmao. I don't listen to just one kind of music. That's what it is to be an adult and not a crappy teen whose afraid to expand themselves beyond their shitty urban tribe of choice. Have fun being insular.

      ivorytower99 You're so offended that giving my *opinion* a thumbs down wasn't sufficient enough, LOL So you ramble about something unrelated. I don't listen to punk whatsoever, so I could care less when it "broke". My comment is about two grown women acting like children. And I must assume you're an adult that behaves silly too. You can have strong ideals and be rebellious without acting like a snotty teenager, making condescending comments, and acting like an elitist. Our most celebrated philosophers and musicians were rebels, all without being assholes. Grow up.

Doesn't ask her about her music or any interesting questions like her muses/influences/themes or what she's experimenting with? Or about her methods of creating music. Watch it again and listen to his questions. I watch videos with the CC on so I can read what they're saying as well. The audio production quality of this video is pretty bad and makes their voices sound terrible. It's distracting.

  • @boozerverif
    @boozerverif 10 років тому +257

    I don't feel like Nardwuar is ever really "trying to be funny" during interviews. He certainly has a general kind of inherent levity to his character and I think he sometimes decides based on intuition/history that certain people are interesting to "press" a little, but other than that, it's just a matter of form, and one that a lot of people get uncomfortable with. A lot of negative responses in interviews he's done have included, "Who cares about the details", but I think certain kinds of people find the details just as worthwhile as the big picture. Sometimes we just want to be able to have the whole 'tapestry' laid out with no missing pieces. It's a bold goal. During interviews, Nardwuar isn't exactly out to give the artists their 1,000,000th 'opportunity' this week to jerk their ego-dicks about whatever new shit they're doing; he shows up to make conversation, try his best to set the record straight about things surrounding the artists in question, and get whatever it is he came for. Guerrilla journalism, something fierce.

    Nardwuar is more rock & roll than Lydia Lunch ever was. The fact that she's trying to give him shit - and it just bounces off him - makes him 1000x cooler than she could dream of being.

    Lydia not clarifying on things about what happened "15 years ago" shows how short sighted and narcissistic she is. Trying too hard to be an edgy/innovative thinker which makes her seem so disingenuous, hypocritical, and impulsive.
    Truely a woman chasing fleeting moments and emotions to maintain her youth. A pathetic way to live. And she hasn't changed!
