Best Coast was 'hand picked' to play some festival that Metallica curated. 'Who cares?' Well, Pitchfork came up with a GREAT angle to make it interesting. Recently, Best Coast's Bethany Cosentino tweeted that Metallica TOTALLY EFFING SUCKED [via that crappy album that every1 said sucked, "Lulu".
Haha, remember when Bethany Cosentino called the Metallica/Lou Reed album "the worst thing I've ever heard"? That apparently didn't stop Metallica from hand-selecting Best Coast for their new Atlantic City festival, Orion Music & More.
It seems as if they 'went out of their way' to #slutshame and #cyberbully Best Coast, letting her know that she is a PHONEY, LIAR, TWO-TIMER, and a SELL OUT by accepting a spot in the Metallica Fest. I would expect this type of treatment from HIPSTER RUNOFF, but it seems clear that TABLOID JOURNALISM is the future of the blogosphere.
Best Coast had to TWEET an APOLOGY to 'CLEAR THE AIR', asking 'OMG WHY DO U H8RZ CARE? WORRY ABT UR OWN GODDAMN LIFE U EFFING LOSERS WHO WRITE THINGS ON THE INTERNET?'
It seems clear that Best Coast's new album will 'get panned' by Pitchfork, and the Corrupt Indie Machine might be taking a universal stance against her, basically saying 'Dis Bitch Be Dumb. Her music is dumb' Say what you will about her Twitter brand, but at the end of the day, she does speak to a tween generation of female fuzzybuzziers. NO ONE knows how her album will perform on the charts, but 2k12 is truly a PRESSURE COOKER 4 her, as she must become more than just a 'blog darling' to be able to one day own property instead of renting. It seems clear that CRITICS like Pitchfork Media are lining up AGAINST her.
Best Coast went on to tweet this mssg abt cyberbullying websites:
at the end of the day, i love this job because i get to encourage people. hate is always going to exist, but don't let it stand in yr way xB
Is Best Coast a 'liar' and a 'panderer'?
Will she 'fit in' at Metallica fest?
Should she have declined this invite?
Will she be 'booed off stage' by scary men?
Does she only care abt mnstrm fame, bronoodling with Drew Barrymore?
Is Best Coast 'doomed' or can she inspire Lana Del Rey levels of backlash, and cruise them to fame and mad album sales?
Does she need to 'commit herself to the craft' and get cosmetic surgery like LDR?
Are blogs 'turning' on Best Coast now that she is going to 'try to go mnstrm' on her next album cycle?
Is the Corrupt Indie Machine DONE with Bethany?
R u tired of the cyberbullying and slutshaming?
If critics want to make sure an album doesn't perform well, should they 'pan' it and dehumanize the artist, or just 'ignore' it?
Can we title Best Coast's upcoming album cycle EVERY ONE HATES BETHANY?
