Ariel Pink continued his stint of headline-grabbing idiocy at a London Scala show last night, where he proclaimed, "I'm the Jimmy Savile of Los Angeles."
The singer, who recently called Grimes "stupid and retarded" for believing an interview quote in which he criticised Madonna, was playing a show in support of his new album, Pom Pom, which was released this week.
During the show, as The Guardian reports, he declared himself the "Jimmy Savile of Los Angeles" and also said, bafflingly, that there should be "more beheadings." None of these comments seemed to be attached to any context.
