#toocool — Public Fediverse posts

Back to School for Middle Schoolers (2024): Backpacks, Laptops, Hygiene - Start the year off right with WIRED-tested headphones, planners, and more for your tweens... - https://www.wired.com/gallery/middle-school-gear/ #gear/buyingguides #toocool #gear

Very impressed by the world weary tones with which the 12yo said, "I know what nihilism is, dad." #TooCool

PSA: I guess it needs to be said.

:headache:

If you follow me, and I don't follow you back, it is not because "I'm too cool" or some other bullshit.

I won't follow you back if:

* Your profile is underdeveloped.

* You have a very small number of posts.

* You seem to hold opinions that I cannot stand.

* You appear to boost "all the things" and have very little to say of your own.

There are probably other things that don't come to mind right now, but it is definitely not because "I'm too cool."

I wish people would stop attributing to character faults what can easily be explained some other way.

You're not doing yourself any favors with this kind of bleating.

@songweb73 "“Too Cool” begins with an incredible snare roll, which invites an irresistible bluesy guitar riff with bass lines that grab us, giving the song a healing vibe as well as a classic and arranged ambiance. Following that, the singer performs with his appealing and hypnotic vocals that are cheerful and vibrant. The vocals are crisp and compelling, and they propel the song superbly. It’s tuneful and has a lot of punch."

Ah the number to times we took to record that snare roll 'just right' :) Thank you to Songweb for writing about us.

Optimates (whose online presence is too complex for us share!) put us on their Indie Radar - for which we are most grateful!

"the vocals become a simple hymn in the chorus, reaching its zenith in the monster guitar solo, making this tune a true classic deserving of being on our list "

We salute you in your many online forms. The article includes some other bands we like including @alasdeliona and @juliasole_music

@artistionline_playlist said"Too Cool represents the band's first collaboration with producer @hugogtmusic . The piece we are analyzing has been defined as a “celebration of infamy in a libertine paradise of glorious hedonism” and by listening to the track we are convinced of the correctness of this interpretation."

Of all the various playlists we've been on over the last 12 months (and a huge thank you to everyone that has included one of our songs!) one that has unfailingly brought a ton of listeners and new followers is @artistionline_playlist - it's a joy to feature again. We loved the review - everything sounds better in Italian, I mean "Il sound della band è la risultanza di diverse influenze che ruotano intorno al vastissimo repertorio del linguaggio del rock, che viene utilizzato in maniera funzionale a seconda del mood della canzone di turno" has got me tingling.

We're pleased to say that we have another absolutely batshit crazy release we've worked on with Hugo due out in March. All Hail the Disco Investors. But for now, Be Cool.

@themetalpriestess “This is a raw, riff-based track full of groove, energy and is a funky punk anthem that more people should have the pleasure of listening to as it is so infectious (six times on repeat and wanted to listen to it a further six!). Go check it out!. Can I listen to it again yet???!”

Oh yes Priestess, you can listen again. Be cool. One of our very first band conversations (that led to Rule Number 2 of Nasty) was "make them short. If they want more they can press repeat." It's deliberate. We do it with our favourite songs all the time. I think we said it when this review first dropped, we're seriously considering x6 Repeat as an LP title!

Also biscuits. Six. About the right number, right?

@thewildiscalling “The 9 o’clock Nasty are back and you know what time it is.  These boys are Too Cool to fool around. They’re ready to slap-ya-in-the-face with this jiving jam.  The UK rock and roll pranksters have hit their stride, penning dare we say their best song yet.  Too Cool instantly recalls the infectious punk hip hop appeal of Beastie Boys with a taste of “before they sucked” era Red Hot Chili Peppers.  Funky and not taking themselves too seriously, it hits.  Try to deny yourself, you can’t.”

You must never deny yourself! Well, possibly that is bad advice, but it is a great review from @thewildiscalling (link to all reviews at www.9nasty.com)

We get into trouble for jiving-jam-face-slaps but we cannot resist.

Be Cool.

@senocular_media “Rugged riffs and raspy vocals deliver a raucous tone and angsty frame of mind reminiscent of early Beatie (sic) Boys. 9 o’clock Nasty’s latest single, “Too Cool,” is a raw indie rock anthem and the perfect addition to any rock playlist.“

THANK YOU

First off, Angsty Frame of Mind essentially describes Ted, and it is a beautiful little expression. Tip of the hat.

Second, we keep getting Beastie Boys comparisons. That's both mind-boggling because we can't hear it (but we adore it) in the music but we wish we could. We'd probably go Paul's Boutique rather than Licensed to Ill if we were allowed. Which we are. So we will. Ha!

(oh and if you read this far and are enraged by the spelling mistake, we quite enjoyed it so we thought we'd pass it on. you're welcome).

Be Cool.

@thebuzzr “A STRIPPED DOWN SNARL. RAW FLESH, PULSING BLOOD WITH A BEAT TO KILL FOR.”

Well yes. That is a bit graphic, but it's kind of the vibe we were aiming for :) Thank you @thebuzzr for your review - the link to all our reviews can be found at www.9nasty.com

@nenesbutlerpresents just dropped us into their Indie Top 40 at number 3. We're really pleased about it. Can't explain why but it is a nice way to start a Saturday. We also had a load of orders for the DISCO INVESTORS tee shirt which is brilliant, thank you peeps xx

@theothersidereviews “I love to taste more of their music, and they never let me down. Ending 2022 with their track ‘Rise Up’, ‘Too Cool’ shakes you awake rubbing that sleep from the corner of your eye. The thing is, while the UK-based trio could be thrust into the “punk meets grunge” genre, ‘Too Cool’ is a fusion of their old-school punk tinged with elements of vintage rock ‘n’ roll. Interestingly enough, while a dark, rock flow exists in the melody, the pounding drums and bold guitars send your heart soaring with their obscure distortion.”

Yeah baby, that is OBSCURE DISTORTION FROM CANADA!

@danzigkrupp “A tight drumroll followed by three minutes of full-on attack. By the end I was begging it to stop but I had to play it again and again. It made me. There is a sickness at the heart of this song that pushes me to the edge. But it’s a catchy bastard. A trickster. Send help.”

Our old friend and stalwart of the Leicester music scene over many years, Danzig is unwell again. We're sending him our love and on this occasion will refrain from the great gift of cheese. Get well soon buddy.
