Cardiacs

A _psychedelic_ _punk_ band you probably have never heard about.

_Cardiacs_ were an English _rock_ band formed in 1977, originally as Cardiac Arrest, led by Tim Smith. Noted for their complex, varied and intense _compositional_ style and for their eccentric, theatrical stage shows, they have been hailed as an influence by bands as diverse as Blur, Faith No More and Napalm Death.

_Cardiacs_ released eight _studio_ albums plus a number of live albums, _compilation_ albums and _singles_ between 1980 and 2007, and are best known for the 1988 minor hit single "Is This the Life?" They are also noted for _attracting_ strongly _diverse_ responses: they remained one of Britain's leading cult rock bands during their four-decade-spanning career, but also attracted virulent critical attack (including a lengthy editorial ban from the British music magazine New Musical Express). Cardiacs were placed on indefinite hiatus following the 2008 hospitalisation of Tim Smith, after a cardiopulmonary arrest which subsequently led him to develop the rare neurological disorder _dystonia_. Smith continued to receive medical _treatment_ and _rehabilitation_, before his death in July 2020.

Kid: no??
Man: then you have no _taste_.

Cardi B

A celebrity that is so insecure about her success that she sits online arguing with a fanbase that isn’t even hers, she blocks her own fans because she cannot handle criticism from them. Cardi also stalks nicki minaj so hard by saving nickis documentary teaser in her phone, and also following the “Nicki Minaj” topic on twitter. Her horrible fanbase tries to drag nicki by saying that she doesn’t have a grammy or a solo number 1 on the billboard hot100 but when asked to drop a cardi bar, it’s total silence.
