Rough In The Diamonds
September 20th, 2005 . by JorgeI call for the immediate destruction of Henry Rollins. He has corrupted Touch and Go for as long as can be allowed. The labels almost perfect catalogue which includes the likes of Blonde Redhead and TV on The Radio has a speck on its windshield. Actually it’s more like a smudge; a bland, obvious, obnoxious, irrelevant closet case of a smudge.
Granted I know that his presence on Touch and Go is nothing new but it seems like he’s sinking his rotting teeth into everything holy. I came to this conclusion while watching his talk show on IFC. Why did I put myself through such misery? Its simple the guy’s got history that can’t be ignored I figured there was something I was missing. Maybe I blinked when I wasn’t suppose to. After watching his show I realized that the reason that he is the angriest man in LA is simply because he’s the most inept at everything he tries.
We’ve endured comedy, spoken word and dare I say it “music” from this hack. The pain of knowing that Touch and Go released these atrocities brings me to my knees. It’s as if U2 were on 4AD. I know I should cut my fingers off for even typing such a blasphemy but the vile comparison is appropriate. Corey please come to your senses stop looking at his swinging locket, you are not getting sleepy! Purify your label and remove the cancerous lump from your colon. There is a wretched inhuman smell in your bowel and it starting to make me dizzy.
Funny thing about this post is I sent it to a friend before posting to get an idea of the Henry Rollins fan base. What I got was one of the bitchiest replies ever, well as bitchy as a passive aggressive person could be. I believe I was getting what the kids called schooled. Apparently Henry Rollins isn’t someone who I should give much thought to. Hmmm is that what punk has evolved to; a snide turn of the attention. Ouch, that punk temper, will it ever simmer down? You kids can sure still dish out the punishment.
I think I got the answer to my own question. The reason why people like Mr. Rollins continue to circulate in music is that hipster slime have inherited it. With no passion or sense of ownership they cripple music. The anger needed to fuel its progression is dead. Now I’m left wondering if the likes of Henry are responsible for our cold blood or is our cold blood responsible for the likes of Henry.
Henry if your out there don’t be angry I m sure your a nice enough guy. This is isn’t an attack on your person its more like a plea to have your insides ripped out! Get off of my favorite label!

Hey, did you hear that Henry Rollins is gay?
No he isnt or at least he hasnt admitted it yet. I read an article that says why everyone came to that conclusion. He appeared posing shirtless on the cover of some gay magazine. But he says he’s not bitchy enough to be gay.
“I got the answer to my own question” I am such an an idiot I dont even remember asking a question. HaHaHaHa Im such a dork once in a while.
