I have an artist friend who taught at SVA when Neck Face was there (though did not teach him), and ran in the same circles as him, and all I know is that he absolutely hates his guts and has never had a remotely kind thing to say about him. I never really bothered to find out why, and I am not going to ask at this point, but I just remember him complaining about it in like 2003, when I took a photo of some Neck Face graffiti and got yelled at
Also lol @ the guy who said that the Silver Jews were a bad American version of Wire. Galaxy brain take right there
