Já não é novidade para ninguém, mas a falta de tempo para passar aqui pelo blog não deu para falar disto mais cedo.
Jared Swilley ( BLACK LIPS ) e Nathan Williams (WAVVES) perderam a cabeça e chegaram a vias de facto, algo que era esperado à algum tempo. Jared já tinha demonstrado o seu desagrado em relação à figura de Nathan numa entrevista para uma rádio Norueguesa. Chegou-se a temer o pior quando ambos pissaram o mesmo palco no festival promovido pela Pitchfork. A verdade é que só agora as coisas realmente deram para o torto.
Ambas as bandas tiveram concertos em Brooklyn no passado dia 25 de Setembro, e acabaram por se cruzar num movimentado bar da cena em Brooklyn. Várias versões começaram a surgir na internet sobre o que aconteceu naquela noite.
Versão de uma rapariga que se encontrava no bar e assistiu a tudo:

Versão do Nathan:
"Talking shit about me on the Internet is one thing, I can handle that all day but when some dude is just looking for a fight at 4 in the morning talking shit to my face and his girlfriend is spitting in the face of all my friends it's a whole different story. I have no problem wih Black Lips or anybody else that i havent met but jared has been at me every chance he had. I just want to play music and have fun. It was unfortunate that it escalated to that point but he got what was coming to him."
Versão do Jared:
"First of all, I just wanna say that Wavves was NOT involved in that fight. That faggot didn't even touch me. I've never "come after" that kid, it wasn't four a.m., that wasn't my girlfriend, no one was spitting, and I didn't attack him. I don't give a shit about that kid and his music. What happened was, after we finished our set I went to Daddy's with some friends and saw that faggot from Wavves talking to a photographer friend of mine. The only thing I did was walk up to him and say "You're that faggot from Wavves and I don't like you". He smiled a bit but didn't say anything. After that, I went outside and saw their tour manager hanging around with some guys. They started getting all chuckles with me and so I told them I wasn't gonna have it. After that, Wavves tour manager hit me square in the face with a bottle. Blood started pouring out and six dudes fucking started kicking me until I blacked out. All I remember is getting hit with the bottle and my friends dragging me to another bar. They wrapped my head up until I looked like a Confederate soldier. So yeah, I lost the fight. I also missed three flights. I've been in the airport all day having stewardesses cleaning my head because it kept cracking open. You can't go on board if you're bleeding. Bottom line is that faggot from Wavves didn't even hit me. Never touched me. And he should've, cuz he had a free shot. He's coming to Atlanta October 3rd and we're gonna get ugly on him. We're gonna destroy their van, we're gonna destroy their faces, we're gonna get crazy on em'. Nasty style."
Há portanto uma promessa de vingança marcada para daqui a duas noites, quando os Wavves tocarem na terra natal dos Black Lips.
E pronto, passada a euforia desta notícia à la Blitz, o que realmente é importante salientar é que os Black Lips passam novamente cá por Lisboa 11 de Novembro, enquanto os Wavves tocam dia 19 de Dezembro.
E fica ainda o novo video dos Black Lips.
