The "Taylor Swift" Bandcamp Page Is Back, and It’s Definitely Not Playing Pop

Ogbert The Nerd’s Madison James has successfully reclaimed the internet’s most coveted URL for a blistering screamo project.

If you navigated to taylorswift.bandcamp.com expecting polished synth-pop anthems or stadium ballads, you’re in for a violent surprise. The domain has once again been hijacked by Madison James of the New Jersey emo outfit Ogbert The Nerd, marking the return of one of the indie scene's funniest bits.

For those catching up: last year, James managed to snag the Bandcamp URL for the biggest pop star on the planet, using it to host a raw, chaotic screamo project simply titled "Taylor Swift." The page eventually vanished—presumably due to the powers that be—but after an 18-month hiatus, it seems the coast is clear.

James took to X (formerly Twitter) to announce the victory with a simple, triumphant update: “Fellas….we got it back.”

80 Seconds of Pure Chaos

This isn't just a squatting situation; there is actual music here, though it might blow out your speakers. The page now hosts a seven-track release that is essentially the antithesis of the Eras Tour. The songs are relentless, noisy, and brief, with most clocking in at under 80 seconds. It’s brutal noise rock for people who prefer basement shows to Ticketmaster queues.

You can stream the chaos directly on the page (before it inevitably gets taken down again).

Meanwhile, In the Mainstream...

While James is busy screaming into the void, the actual Taylor Swift is having a typically massive month. She recently dropped her 12th studio album, The Life Of A Showgirl. Despite a mixed bag of reactions from fans and critics—some calling it "pop perfection" while others find it "basic"—the numbers don't lie. The album debuted at Number One, shattering streaming records previously held by Adele.

Swift also continues to prove she’s a class act off-stage, recently donating $100,000 to the GoFundMe of a young fan battling brain cancer.

So, whether you want chart-topping pop dominion or 60 seconds of ear-shredding screamo, there is technically a "Taylor Swift" for everyone right now.
