T-mobile advert

I saw this and couldnt help but think about the Intertexuality refrences throughout the whole thing, this up to date, shows the links throughout variuous refrences such as the dog; shoiws that they have researched into most common things on YouTube. This stood out to me, also the Irnoic "british" steroytypes made me think of the Kromers thoughts on Ironicness.

on the riots.

Reverend And The Makers have released a song inspired by the recent outbreak of rioting in the UK.

The band’s frontman Jon McClure spoke about the song, based on an unfinished track, entitled ‘Riot’, saying “I feel it my job as an artist to talk about and react to what's happening in my own way”. He also added that the song isn’t part of a new Reverend And The Makers album. He said:

I watched the events unfolding on the news the other night same as everyone else and was gutted to see the buildings on fire and people losing their businesses. The same way many of us have seen this coming for some time.

He continued:

Watching the news put me in mind of an old unfinished track that we had worked on. This is that track. Its free, it’s not a money thing in any way but I feel it my job as an artist to talk about and react to what's happening in my own way. This isn't part of any forthcoming Reverend album, it’s not gonna be a political record in the slightest but to keep schtum when there's rioting in the streets just ain't me. Hope you enjoy.

Post modern artist

My post modern artist I have picked are the Reverand and the Makers. They are sheffield lads, releasing The state of things in 2007.  I think they are postmodern in the way they go around things and invent, but are inspired by various genres.

"I know it's bad,but it's so bad it's good way"

The postmodern sensibility that anything can be considered cool in an ironic "I know it's bad,but it's so bad it's good way"

The postmodern aspects of media create a theory that nothing is "uncool" anymore. Today their are such a variety of elements and people can gain access and knowledge to such a vairaty of genres that everybody has their "style" to an extent.  

Therefore everybody has a "guilty" pleasure,
