My bad, I didn't realise they used that abbreviation

[saints15]

The full name of them is Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All so they are on the line up as OFWGKTA

few minutes too late

I really do not get the fuss over these guys. I saw the hype, I checked them out.... They're not very good?

I think they're fairly awesome actually... They will be great live anyway, although they are not something i'd listen to usually.

If you haven't seen their performance on the Jimmy Fallon show, then follow the link and you'll see what all the fuss is about.

Mm. Skinny white hipsters pretending to be black and spouting idiotic catchphrases like "SWAG" and "FREE EARL".

CAN'T WAIT.

Odd Future are white, aren't they?

[Englishdragon]

Really am sick of these idiots that think its cool to categorise and stereotype everything. its Just stupid.

I decided to have a listen to odd future once they got mentioned on here and Ive not stopped listening to them. Tylers new album is going to be one of the best this year if Sandwiches and Yonkers is anything to go by.

That Jimmy Fallon performance was good. But i just find the whole set up kind of lame. Saw some live videos of them and it was just Tyler telling crowd how much he didn't give a f**k, and he wants to see people get hurt in the pits... It came across really forced and quite childish. Plus they seem to be trading off of hipsters fans. That said i'd see them to check them out.

[Vieuphoria]

Mellowhype is the best part of the group, followed by Earl.

[saints15]

Did anyone go to their gig today, if so how was it?

[nofunciona]

Well they are, in that they are really anti-establishment and their shows resemble punk gigs too. So, yeah. I dont mean they are anything like the Sex Pistols musically. Just the phenomenon surrounding them is fairly similar.

Actually, the one differenence is theyre less manufactured than the sex pistols.

Also, Daveportivo, if you read the NME interview, Taylor isnt actually homophobic.
