So if he's writing from a character that he invented, that may as well be him for all I know or care, because the only thing I know about Billy is that he is the Pumpkin man who wrote the songs
True, great art speaks for itself.

Yeah it fucking matters. The new narrative is revisionist bs. MCIS wasn’t a concept album and Machina was a half baked one. Neither album are related to each other in any way, shape, or form. Just a ploy to garner interest in a steadily waning band.

I agree. Was just thinking about this. He’s acting like all of these albums are tied together with the same characters.... Glass... Zero... whatever their names are. Honestly, I think he read up on some of the fan speculation/guesses and decided to run with some of their ideas, passing it off as his own.

MCIS is an album within a concept of an album within an album within a concept of a career. It's always been like that. 20 years ago he was pointing at Bye June, saying he'd been masterminding Machina since day 1. It's always been Glass Onion. Dunno why anyone would be surprised or upset about what he's saying now bunch of untrue fans

Death From Above would've been fine if Billy had just turned his vocals up another 50% and lowered the guitar and drums, his singing is so beautiful but I can barely hear it for all the fucking background noise.

I wish Billy was less generous in his production and had more confidence in both his voice, and talents as a producer: a field of expertise you don't need to know anything about when you've sold multi-platinum records.

I mean, I might have believed you in 2005. Since then there have been many, many worse candidates.
