Don’t know who cobrasnake is? I’m guessing he’s a photographer? But going through that link…it reminds me of the indie sleaze aesthetic I hated that whole look and subculture.

Charli clearly looked like she had a fun time lol 🥳🎂

he was big when indie sleaze was at it's peak

[genbu_no_miko24]

I think he was probably here during that timeperiod cause the style is very familiar to me.

There were a lot of posts here about his underaged girlfriend, Cory Kennedy at the height of his fame.

ONTD hated her for some reason. I remember I think I had joined ontd around the time there was a big post where we somehow got her number? Members were prank calling her/harassing her.

Anyways, the reason why I remember him being a creep was a post about them or a comment that led to a big thread regarding really inappropriate photos and videos he had shared of her.

He seemed to be the photographer at every mid-2000s party in LA when indie sleaze was thriving.

I think we a had few posts that featured his work now that I think about it. Lol I do not miss that style and era one bit.

There was Terry Richardson too, thankfully he seems to be gone now

is indie sleaze like that richardson photographer dude kind of aesthetic or

[genbu_no_miko24]

Terry Richardson I think was a whole nother style but I'm not sure if he was considered indie sleaze cause I think he working years and had a signature style before the 2010s.

oh dang i have no idea then omg

is it exclusive to la or was this style just a very niche lol

[genbu_no_miko24]

Not sure, I guess it seems very LA-based cause the other comments in the thread reminded me that we did use to have posts about these types of pics and I think all the parties were in LA. Maybe there was some NY ones but it was LA iirc.

[lovebum4life]

nah NYC based as well

[milotic2]

It wasn’t exclusive to LA, think of all the hipster/electro/indie parties and people that were present in them in almost any major city during the 00’s and early to mid 10’s and that was the style
