Pirate Bay, Torrents.to, Soulseek, Napster, Limewire, Kazaa. But you know what? The album leaked yesterday, so I don’t give a shit anymore.” It’s a new song, came out a couple of days ago. “We’re going to play a song we’ve only played twice before. However, instead of begging fans to wait for the official release to come out, DeMarco said that he didn’t give a shit and encouraged them to download it from pirate sites.
