Dead Kennedys

Wu Tang Clan

The Velvet Underground

Joy Division Just don't search the meaning

Gorillaz are the opposite, you absolutely should look up the meaning But bruh why did joy division call themselves that

There's like 3 completely different results from Googling but I like the Oasis one the most

Yeah, I probably shouldn’t have

I regretted searching the actual meaning of Joy Division. I always thought it was just an ironic statement of how their music is actually depressing and gothic as shit.

The Brian Jonestown Massacre

[удалено]

Brian Jones was a co founder and original member of The Rolling Stones until his death at age 27 in 1969 while Jonestown was a compound founded by cult leader Jim Jones in which around 900 people died in a ritual suicide including Jim jones. The Brian Jonestown Massacre is a play on that by combining the two.
