Design The Skyline Reportedly Fire Their Bassist, Drama Ensues
Design The Skyline have apparently kicked out their 16 year old bassist Ethan White in a feud that subsequently spilled over to Twitter and Tumblr. White thas since taken to his Twitter and his Tumblr, posting the following on the latter this past Monday, August 15th:
“So my asshole band members just kicked me out because im 16. Ive worked so hard in this band ive done alot i drove all the way to chicago with them to get signed i made 2 music videos with them i do nothing wrong. And were going on our first tour in about 2 weeks. And there just dropping me like that.
Nothing ever goes well for me in my life not school not relationships and finially i get in a band ive loved music my whole life and we finially get signed a dream come true and now ive lost that. I feel like that once in a life time chance had finally come and now its just gone like that cause my band members are fucking heartless. They know what shit ive been through but there just selfish.
Now i feel like my life isnt worth living im just a normal ass person like ive always been and that sucks, i was so excited to see what tour is like and get to go to europe and see beautiful places on this earth. I cant even type right right now im shaking im so scared and mad and idk its an intense feeling i just broke a mirror with my hand and im bleeding i feel stupid. wtf is wrong with me.
nothing goes well for me and this is just like assuring me nothing else ever will.. omg im freaking out. a;sdkjf;f FUCK man. i hope NONE of you guys have problems like this in yalls lives i hope you all live amazing wonderful happy lives no one deserves this but apparently i do for some fucked up reason..”
Meanwhile, band drummer John Martian posted the following on his Twitter:
“for those who think im an ass for kicking out ethan! you try playing in a band with someone so unproductive #realtalk”
He later added:
“How can i feel sorry for someone that only cares for fame and hoes. #realtalk”
Of course my initial reaction would be suspicion given Victory‘s penchant for questionable marketing techniques (wasn’t there a fake blogger getting sued for leaking records and such?) Hell I don’t even want to believe Design The Skyline are a real band, but fuck, just read that. Even if I just got trolled in some clever marketing ploy, I’m still amused.
Considering I’ve already met my quota this month for Twitter feuds, you can find some more details on this situation over at Kikaxemusic.com.

Cunt needs to go back to school and learn to spell.
I’m sure he can spell, its just that he is so scared and mad and idk from getting booted from the band that he is shaking! SHAKING I tell you!
Brutal avatar, man…. I laugh, then I feel bad. Asshole. Awesome.
aaahhhhhhhhh, he’s mad because he’s “a normal kid” now. Join the club, ass.
They should employ the marketing technique of offing themselves #realtalk
i am at a loss for words….
not in a good way mind you.
And to kick him out sooooo close to the release date! NNNNOOOOOOOOOOO.
Dont worry dude. There is about 1,500 other bands out there that sounds just like DTS firing their bassists everyday. Im sure you can join up with one of them and you wont miss a beat. Unless of course your hand hasn’t healed yet from punching that mirror.
He’s got prom night to look forward to, though right guys?
wow they should do a concept album based on that emo out burst.
This kid is so emo he ejaculates tears.
perfect for a band that shits out “music”
Seriously. this will be the best thing that will EVER happen to that kid. It would have been all downhill for him otherwise! On another note, who the fuck is in charge over there at Victory these days? Is this the same label who once had Earth Crisis, Integrity and Thursday on their roster? For shame Victoria, for shame…
I think this kid’s entire rant should be the new community service post, it would be the silliest one ever…
I’m shaking it’s so funny evrhuvbhwvahyuoFUCKrgejnvsr
this place is on the way to becoming isanyoneup.com
I’m pretty sure there’s no emo penis on theprp.
God hates a coward, Sonny. And no one likes a whiner.
Perhaps they kicked him out cause he says shit like that. I’ve never heard this band before but that rant just convinced me that I never need to.
Chappie, where the fluffy have you been!? These guys are the saviour of modern, metallic-in-sound music of this generationz! They are zeppelin-inspired maestros of musical magic!
Apparently I missed the memo about this band, thanks for getting me up to speed. Just listened to a song of theirs, wow, they sound like someone is beating a cat with a baby. Maybe someone here can explain to me exactly which part of the sonic abortion that is their sound, was inspired by Zeppelin.
Well, you need to watch their track-by-track breakdown.

Holy crap! They are deep as well as hip. I also can’t believe how edgy they are too! That is simply amazing! They can switch genres too, is there anything they can’t do? I had no idea such a deep, edgy, & hip band was out there. Thank you for bringing their genius to my attention.
What’s even funnier is their interview on YouTube where they respond to the criticism they’ve received:

As well they should. This is the worst fucking band I’ve ever heard. I’d rather be water tortured, forced to watch Lord of the Dance, and have Enuff ‘Z Nuff blasted into my eardrums concurrently instead of listening to these douches.
For promoting individuality they sure do look a lot like all the other scene/emo/whatever they’re calling themselves, kids nowadays. Do they have any fans over the age of 14? Everything they talk about is just so juvenile.

wook i agree with your suspicion, i think Joaquin Phoenix may be behind this.
OMG hot topic ran out of my favorite eye liner! i am shaking! i am soooo angry! my fists hurt because i just punched my pillow REALLY HARD! i dont know what to do! aggghhh! i am going to kill my self by eating too much ice cream in a HOT HOT HOT bubble bath! AGHH!
I’m a normal ass person and life is worth living. ™
Im sure all the members of Van Halen spit out their drinks when they read that this kid got kicked out of his band because he “only cares for fame and hoes”
thats fucking hilarious bezerker!
Love the avatar, “My love for you is like ticking clock BEZERKER!”
Would you like a piece of fuck BEZERKER!
Skurlnich….
I’m going to do this kid a favor and go butt-fuck his mother! That will give him something to cry about!
I’m sure his mom will call the other kids moms and this whole thing will be sorted out in no time.
hahahahahaha
Odin help us…
Good god….this is so jerseylicious shouldn’t we let the MTV producers that do “Teen Mom” handle this one? Right up their alley…
Ah man, and I was just about to get laid!
I remember MY first beer.
p.s. – hey PRP / Wookubus, you should make it possible for all us users to set up profiles and shit. ASL, favorite bands / albums, etc. If you do, me love you long time.
I wonder if they’ll have an Au Pair (Nanny to the layman) on tour with them when they hit the road. That’s punk as fuck.
I thought that was Metallica’s thing
Never even heard of this band.
