Muppet Train
good morning to everyone except Ace of Base (CW: nazis)
Muppet Train
the worst thing about Ace of Base being Nazis
Muppet Train
(apart from Ace of Base literally being literal Nazis)
Muppet Train
is that I still get The Sign stuck in my head
Muppet Train
but now it's full of super-cringe fridge horror moments
sailor bii
o same
Muppet Train
it's entirely POSSIBLE that it's not a song about a swastika, but you can't prove it either way, and it's straight-up horrifying
Rama
What the fuck is this decade
Rama
Oh they're Swedish, this is still disgusting but slightly less shocking.
Muppet Train
my Shadowrun GM keeps complaining that real life keeps upstaging his corporate dystopia stories
Muppet Train
for those of you just joining us, they're really Naz...
Muppet Train
I found this out a couple years back, but one of the first CDs I owned was AoB, so it keeps coming back to me in all-new moments of total revulsion
go тo вread

Chthonic nymph

sentient gate
ugh
bean check
goddamn it /tosses CD
sentient gate
as someone who lived in sweden for multiple years, yeah, the nazi affiliation is really high for such a small population
sentient gate
it makes me so sad since i love the country and its full of great people
sentient gate
i mean. america isnt that great either with affiliations to terrible groups
sentient gate
but yeah their stuff is catchy and it's annoying not to be able to rock out to the bops anymore
Lassarina
oh no
PG
oh my fuck
TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
tbh, i already knew about this, lmao
TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
mostly because it all came up when ekberg first started getting more into politics
TᴏᴡɴIɴsɪᴅᴇMᴇ🐻
but yeah, it's. not great.
Muppet Train
I am sorry to ruin everyone's teenaged nostalgia :-/
Muppet Train
but yeah.
sentient gate
yeah, ekberg has been pretty vocal about gross stuff. not a surprise. im just sad because it taints my memories of road trips with my aunt in high school. she loved ace of base
sentient gate
so i remember driving around with her and her just rocking out behind the wheel when one of their songs would come on lol
forwardrelentlessly
oh god i had no idea
ｐｌｕｖｉｏｐｈｉｌｅ

Flash Bastard
Teenage nostalgia? Try kindergarten nostalgia.

Muppet Train

Muppet Train

sentient gate
haha yeah i definitely dated myself here but im 38 and they were just getting big when i was maybe a junior in high school
Mrs Sheepie
the album came out the year i was born but i remember hearing it on the radio a lot as a kid
FluffyFaeCat
this is one of those occasions that makes me glad that I was raised on oldies (and like, oldies for the 80-90s. so 50-60s maybe some early 70s stuff)
Rama
Yeah my little kid stuff was all my parents' teenage stuff
Rama
So the Beatles and Motown
Rama
I moved forward in time like ten years to prog rock by the time I got to college
sailor bii
I remember having their The Sign on tape as a kid. I learned about the whole Nazi thing a few years ago and was so disgusted
sailor bii
when i say as a kid i mean i was like twelve or something
sailor bii
i don't remember if it was my first tape or if like jagged little pill or tragic kingdom was
sailor bii
or lisa loeb's first album
sentient gate
Oh man, jagged little pill was so good though. Definitely better than anything ace of shit ever released
sailor bii
so good
sailor bii
i don't think my favorite track ever got a music video, but damn 'all i really want' was so good
sailor bii
Alanis Morissette - All I Really Want
sailor bii
so good
reki 🛹

Ace of Base's Ulf Ekberg Speaks Out About Alleged Pa...
sentient gate
Lol sure bro. The songs were on your album but you didn't perform them? Funny how they exist then
sentient gate
Nah, his attitude is very similar to the head of the Sverigedemokraterna who claims that the party doesn't hold extremist views or have Nazi ties, despite... doing both
sentient gate
Uffe Was a Nazi! (found Commit Suiside compilation a...
