#orion simprini

[auroras-void]

Hmm so I just learned about the whole Orion Experience/Orion Simprini shitshow, and I'm like hella grossed out, I don't think I can listen to any of their songs anymore. Which sucks bc like, their songs were so good and there's so few bands that I actually ever listen to bc I'm not super into music.

Like I love that they included be gay do crime in a song lyric, and "let's get mischievous- and polyamorous" is a banger of a line. Not to mention the fantastic album art. But it's all totally ruined by the fact that they also have stuff like "so young and innocent" in their songs which already felt questionable and now just feels nauseating with the context of the fucked up shit they've done.

So like I don't usually ask for music recs but does anyone have any good recommendations for stuff that's similar to them? Or maybe some good covers of their Albums, preferably that have those gross little tidbits removed or replaced by something nicer? (Like it wouldn't take much to make their songs a lot better by like flipping things like "You're young and beautiful" to "*We're* young and beautiful".) Or like actually even just a cover of the Cult of Dionysus with fem vocals would be amazing.

Or actually even just really queer music in general. I like TOE for just sorta the unabashedly queer vibes they got, and like I'm kinda shit at finding music so I don't know a whole lot of bands that are like that.

The last dream I remember having was horrid.

I guess my unconscious brain thought John Flansburgh and Orion Simprini were the same person or at least looked similar.

Because apparently Flansburgh was an alleged groomer in this dream-

Thank you, sub-conscious

For those who are unaware, Orion Simprini is the main vocalist of The Orion Experience, and is a groomer. It wasn't just one person either.

so here's a picture of each of them:

Flans is on the right >>>

This is Orion Simprini. To be fair she looks like the John Flansburgh/Morgan Wallen love child. Anyway, yeah. They don't look EERIELY similar, but it is sad that my sub-conscious literally decided they're one person. Anyway yeah dreams are fucking stupid.

I’ve been working on a playlist of songs that scratch that same itch as the Orion Experience cause the leader singer got revealed to be a groomer. Let me know if there’s anything you would like to see added!

[batty-cool]

There’s No Love In February is so hard oh my goodness

[moved-to-piersgender]

I would like to formally apologize on behalf of all genderfluid people named Orion

[lewvithur]

i haven't heard a song by the o/rion e/xperience in 8 months i feel like if i do i'll combust

[lestrodamus]

I love piracy i can listen to one of my fav albums of all time without the guilt of supporting a kid diddler ❤️

[full-swing-kiss]

I’d say Orion Simprini should get out of TOE but since it’s called The *Orion* Experience I fear I have to tolerate his ugly ass

Why are so many ppl in your Spotify playlists so problematic? Like, Gorillaz hired someone who did blackface to voice one of their characters and did NFTs, Joe Hawley (who wrote the Mind Electric) and Orion Simprini (the Orion Experience) are both groomers, and Evelyn Evelyn is a very ableist and pedophelic band who’s creator, Amanda Palmer, is a racist (she, a white woman, wrote and sang a song featuring the n word) who’s made jokes about both r*pe and pedophilia, wrote a transphobic song, and faked her own suicide to convince her partner to stop doing drugs (she also filmed it and used the audio in one of her songs). I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you didn’t know these things before adding the songs to your playlists, but I strongly suggest looking into these things.

Okay so I didn’t know about any of this so thanks for telling me but I think it’s also a little unrealistic to expect everyone to know everything about the writer of every song they come across

but also do you have sources for some of these? Not saying I don’t believe you I just wanna know

[thiefnessman]

man i know hindsight is 20/20 but we really let Orion Simprini sing songs about ~innocent little girls~ and then go on and duet teenagers on tiktok lipsyncing to his band’s song about drunken orgies.

[water-mellie-seeds]

I never know how to word this but when i was still a minor i narrowly avoided potentially being one of orion simprinis victims on tiktok

The Orion Experience has another Banger

The Orion Experience has another Banger I'm not sure what kind of drugs The Orion Experience puts into their music but it always hits HARDLoving On Each Otherhttps://preview.redd.it/4ceq8k5ttdhd1.jpg?width=3601&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b21d37f7196ca2254337aba9e184a92cee17dd52Love him or hate him, Orion Simprini never misses Submitted August 08, 2024 at 12:14AM by Tinyhunter_Peaches https://ift.tt/87H5iuM via /r/Music

how the hell are most people ignoring what Orion Simprini did.

[mischiefserpentes]

CW: P/dophilia and Gr/oming.

Orion Simprini, lead singer of the Orion Experience, is a groomer who's age range for victims spanned from 9 years old to 20.

We can't forget about this, we can't just let it go.

He's still somehow managing to get away with it, though the allegations against him came out after Cult of Dionysus became popular in 2020.

The Orion Experience still has 891,641 monthly listeners, which is much lower than it used to be, but I think we all know it should be zero.

For more information on what happened, including screenshots from various victims, go see @project.artemis on Tiktok.

They're an account entirely dedicated to making Simprini address his victims and face justice for his crimes.

i hadn't done any of these in my life but it isn't because my life is normal, it's because my life is too weird.

let me make a list

despite my dissabillity, i'm really really good at climbing fences

i've had a roided up dad bang on my door and threaten my life because i called his son a cunt. i think it lead to him losing shared custody of his son.

i was james acaster's neighbour

sheep and goats seem to like me

i have more canals in my teeth than the normal person

lego stole my idea for a fucking line and i have been trying to contact them about it for over three months now and they won't admit it

for a short moment of time, orion simprini was my mentor

terry deary, author of the horrible histories book series, hates my fucking guts. on a personal level.

i am integral to the amatuer archival efforts of british television

i own a piece of the berlin wall and sugar cubes from the ussr

theres more but im too tired to remember

jumping on the bandwagon for a hyperspecific poll! all things have happened to me lets see how alike we are
