Brian Chippendale 

I'm so happy people like this exist.

He's such a down to earth dude which kinda surprised me considering how hectic his music and art is. I was sorta expecting a person with borderline psychosis.

An artist can't have that much junk everywhere without having some discipline. Brian is the master of his crazy collage juggernaut, the mind behind this visual turbulence that looks just a bit scary. Like Jeremy's higgledy-piggledy bedroom in the comic strip "ZITS." Brian's mother likely never taught him to put his toys away. Francis Bacon, a very famous artist, always kept his studio space in a state of total chaos.

2:57 Imagine if he won that 50/50. Then we wouldn’t have Lightning Bolt at all, crazy how small things predict a lot of your future

From the pics and videos I've seen Brian doesn't look fucking 40, I've always imagined him being in his 20's.

That fort thunder place seems like the coolest place ever and this guys art is absolutely brilliant.

one of my favorite drummers/artist/whatever ever.

This guy is a legend of our time

Brian Chippendale is a gem who must be protected at all costs.

Sometimes just doing what you want will eventually lead to breaking somebody's heart. Sometimes life just falls in place that way, and you're free. But for some people like me, it requires many years of hard work and pushing against a pile of bad luck, to keep things good.

"I feel like I lived my whole life rewarded for bad behavior." What a bamf.

"Noise Rock" was a term that long pre-dated the emergence of Brian's band, Lightning Bolt -- going back to the late '70s

I love Brian Chippendale. I still get the feeling he's an "explosion looking for somewhere to happen". His time, and Brian Gibson's, will come. I know. 🤗😊♥️ Love you people.

“Everyone is looking right, and I’m looking left, and I’m not really trying”. I just found you, your music and your art today 12.07.2019 @118pm CDT. I dunno how I got here but wow, I’m sure glad I did. What a breath of fresh air.

Its like a punk rock bread and puppet museum

This guy is and his band is about the only cool thing iv'e found on youtube for ages.

I've never met someone who didn't like brian. He's an awesome down To earth guy

Fort Thunder sounds so cool, i wanna visit

You'll be alright mate. Just keep doing things which make you feel good, and surround yourself with people who make you want to be alive.

Really love his art. Fuckin breakbeat at the end as well. Groovy dude.

the old days in Providence sitting in front of his kick drum getting pummeled on a floor i sure as shit shouldn’t be sitting on. Favorite spot, 3 quarter view, hi hat side. i’ve never seen them play for more than a 5$ cover. mostly free shows. Hanging off a fire escape in an alley they were playing while the sounds bounce off of brick walls might be one of my favorite live music memories. we knew they were playing outside but they didn’t announce where. all of a sudden you hear those fucking drums, murdering physics like they do.

Nice to see you, Brian. I'll keep my eyes peeled for the next time you guys roll through town.

Wonderful...keep on keeping on!

Holy shit this is like, the 90s personafied

When I grow up i wanna be a manchild just like him

i love to see that one of my drum icons feels this way

Black pus in his hilarious attic. The most CRAZY song I heard from Brian Chippendale.

Very talented work in his print and poster pile. Seems like a cool dude and like his vibe.

art metal is probably the best label i've heard to describe them, would lvoe to hear brian playing in his style in a death metal band or something lol.

Brian C is a rad dude!

Lightning Bolt is AMAZIN'.

His place looks like pretty much every loft I’ve been to in Philly.

suuuuch a good dude and friendly AF.

“I’m supposed to be doing this, but I’m always doing that”. I really respect this man and LB is top 5 live shows at first unitarian NEWBURGHPHILLYWHATSGOOD

he`s creating a great basement

legit genius

Thank you for making beautiful art. . +P.eacfullness, love and pleasure, kindness, && happiness with logical ethicall response shaping

Cool...wonder what part of the burgh...I live in the burgh

i’m gonna be honest he’s kind of dreamy. if you catch me in a wig and high heels in the new york area please just mind your own business because i will have things to do

what an interesting individual

This is what I wanna do with my life.

great clip. any idea where I could score some of his artworks?

Holy shit, I had been to that Flea Market to buy salvia and saw into that space and was like "wtf is *this* ???"

I love you Chippy

met in north England right after gig after he whipped his undies off, told him how I found LB, in a tiny 2cm column in Mojo magazine and tracked them down,. the energy xxx....he was the sweetest politest guy give me 2 mts of his time, and post gig...what are they doing now? UK?

Good to see ,,,,.

This guy is awesome, he answered my comment on instagram one time which he totally doesn’t have to do but wants to

i need some of your art work to hang in my flat

Master

i dont think anyone should ever try to put labels onto music like that. noise rock this, prog-avant that, it makes it feel like nothing can be all or anything at once. lightning bolt is lightning bolt, hella is hella, black midi is black midi, and i think maybe labels is less for molding what the music is rather than for easy categorization if you want similar things. in the end everything is its own little thing and that makes it feel like everything is in its own world

Hes a sick drummer, and a highly intelligent visual artist. But my god how he sets his drums up destroys me.

What's the last song?

I think children's books,. As it's great pictures , positive

So he did their EP cover art? If so that’s pretty far out

It's hard to setup.

Can we get an F for Fort Thunder

correction for my post. i said “hi hat” instead of crash cymbal which is other side. for whatever reason godamn im old, guess i have Drumslexia. phew. needed to correct before i loook like an asshole liar:). it was vital i get this on record

if someone can trigger me into suicide its him.. because he is like me, and i guess like many of you, but he just believes in it continiously and keeps on doing that stuff without ever reflecting too long.. i doodled too it looked like this, i drum too but i sometimes suffer from exhaustion.. i never had the other brain though.. yet i kinda have a besty childhood friend looking exactly like him but he doesnt play bass and lives over the ocean.

Hey bro...got an extra hi hat...want it?

Looks like Vegeta

Marry me
