Most overrated band

[tawdry ridge]

if you're gonna listen to an album, what's the point of shuffling it

[worn nova]

funny

[hidden river]

@nimble compass

he's not a band mate

every album on shuffle so you did spent like at least 8 hours listen to music you didn't enjoy? bro stop the cap

[nimble compass]

oh nooo not again

[hidden river]

lmao

[restive widget]

Hmm alright

[warped flicker]

He still sucks

[tulip moon]

im not listening to the whole song bro im listening to a min or so skipping forward and backward to see if i like the song not that hard

[tawdry ridge]

xDDDD

classic

[hidden river]

tik tok broke people man

[tulip moon]

its kinda like st anger by metallica you only need 1 min to know its that bad

[tawdry ridge]

it isn't bad tho

i think you're just outsourcing your opinion to the memeverse

[tulip moon]

i mean i barely spend time on tiktok tho

[hidden river]

i not speaking about it specifically bro. but more like people don't have a lot of patience anymore

[tulip moon]

well its kinda bad but its not their worst album, i mean lulu is way wotse

[tulip moon]

well if im not enjoying a min and a half of the song why would i keep listening?

[hidden river]

cause if a song was ment to have only 1 min it would have only 1 min lmao

[tulip moon]

well black by pearl jam as an example, its about 5 min long yet kinda get the point after 1 min cause most of the songs are pretty repetitive (i really like black by pearl jam tho)

nothing wrong with songs being repititive but thats just how it is in most cases

[restive widget]

I understand listening to a song for the first time for one minute and then not liking it and closing out
But that is like the dumbest way to listen to all new songs

[hidden river]

is not repetitive cause eddie changes his emotion along the song, i have the feeling that you migh not pay a lot of attetion sometimes, which is cool nothing wrong with that tho

[hidden river]

yeah i mean, nothing wrong with that, but you would be missing on a lot of good tunes

[tulip moon]

well yeah i see your point and agree with it, yet if i like the song i liked it from about 1-2 min of listening it wouldnt take me a whole song to understand that

[restive widget]

Also not every song is repetitive like that, there’s bands that change the structure, timing, riff, etc at some point in the song

[hidden river]

sure, if it working for you no need to change

[tulip moon]

true i said most of the times im aware that a song like master of puppets has like 4 different sections if not more

but lets say i would like only 1 part about master of puppets, i wouldnt listen to a whole song im not enjoying just to get to that part

at least that what seems logical for me

[restive widget]

Dude imagine you listening to the entirety of Master of Puppets (the album) and you hear Battery and you only hear the intro (which lasts like a minute btw)

So you only hear the acoustic arrangements and the stuff following it before the riff kicks in

“Alright this band sucks they’re not as heavy as people say they use acoustic guitars”

💀

[tulip moon]

i feel like youre giving a special examples which in most case scenario are not whats more common outside i mean i also said that i skip here and there throughout the song to see if something interesting is in the way

[restive widget]

But how are you gonna get to that part if you’re only gonna listen to the first minute or so

[tulip moon]

youre taking the 1 min way too precisely bro lol if a song is 7 min iwouldnt explore literally 1 min

[restive widget]

Alright no offense but that is like the most braindead way to listen to any new song

[tulip moon]

the term would be more correct is "briefly exploring"

[restive widget]

…but it’s really not meant to be listened like that

Also repetitiveness isn’t a bad thing, sometimes that’s the whole point of why people enjoy stuff

[tulip moon]

never said it was

[restive widget]

So why skip out parts instead of listening to the whole thing

[tulip moon]

because when i listen and i get to the point that i say "i dont really like the song" its kinda useless to keep listening

its like a taylor swift fan would explore slipknot, how much time do you think itll take this kind of person to turn the song off?

(the average taylor swift listener)

[tawdry ridge]

so ur saying, the beatles is to you, in the same way slipknot is to an avg taylor swift fan?

[tulip moon]

lol not really

but its the same point, i listen to a song for sometime, i didnt like it why would i keep listening?

if a song is 3 minnutes and i listened to a min and a half and didnt like it i probably wouldnt like the rest of it

[restive widget]

Also let me just say playing an album on shuffle is enough to piss off like every hardcore Pink Floyd fan lmfao

[tulip moon]

XD thats actually true i was always told to listen to THE album in order

altho i think wish you were here is a better album

[tawdry ridge]

well the topic of conversation isnt rly, how much you personally like the beatles. it's that you consider them to be the most overrated band

and instead of elaborating you kinda just said "yeah i put their discography on shuffle and skipped thru some songs innit"

if i put mozart discography on shuffle and skipped thru some symphonies i'd be bored shitless half the time too

[restive widget]

^^^ Plus there’s a chance you only heard the boy band stuff over the experimental stuff because that’s their more popular stuff

[tulip moon]

well its not that i dont know any song by them

im famillier with the hits

think that its just pretty overrated

i think in their position of fame i would switch them with much better artists that didnt reach that kind of peak

[restive widget]

That’s a fair take actually

[tawdry ridge]

well that's kinda the thing. they weren't really just another band, they revolutionized modern music and the music industry

not sure anything else really compares, maybe elvis

[tulip moon]

never denied their influence i just think that compare to what we got afterwards their kinda bad, i mean i rock elvis almost every day and i still think he catches up with the rolling stones van halen and metallica to me personally, same goes for chuck berry etc... but the beatles are no where close to any of them in my opinion tho

[tawdry ridge]

yeah its different vibe for sure

[tulip moon]

its not only the vibe its just that they are kinda boring to me, average singing and average rhythm maybe drums and lyrics are pretty decent but i really dont get how they are so famous i mean, elvis and chuck berry were at that time too and yet chuck berry is not even close to their recognition

[tawdry ridge]

well they kinda spearheaded the "british invasion" first, but later went into the whole psychedelic rock thing

good read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Beatles

[gritty stirrup]

I don’t enjoy the hits as much as some of their underrated songs

They are overplayed asf too

[hidden river]

the ones not skipped were listened for about 1 min

[tawdry ridge]

i mean i get their point, it's just funny, out of all the bands to mention here, people choose the literal pioneers of the modern musical era xD they will always be perfectly rated

[hidden river]

no doubt, just the most famous band on human history

the beatles are the only band you can ask an 70 yo and a 12 yo, and both will know about them lol

[tawdry ridge]

and as a disclaimer i don't listen to the beatles at all, only via exposure when i was a kid and my family played their tunes. but i did some LEARNIN

[restive widget]

I’d argue the Beatles also did help popularize the psychedelic rock movement

I wouldn’t say they created it first but they definitely did popularize it + the hippie movement

There’s a reason why every hippie character in pop culture always references the Beatles

[hidden river]

same here, but their importance to modern music is undeniable

[restive widget]

I’ve listened to them a lot before, they’re still a good band but I’ve started to understand why people may not like them

That being said, yes they are very influential

But it is possible to respect someone without having to like them a lot

If that makes sense

[hidden river]

it is haha

i don´t like them that much, i listen to them sometimes when my spotify is on random ... but i am glad they did their stuff

[tawdry ridge]

now... the rolling stones on the other hand ☝️ 😠

[restive widget]

They were… interesting

[restive widget]

I respect Dave Mustaine’s guitar playing and the music he’s made but behind the music he’s… not that great of a guy

Actually the same thing applies to John Lennon of the Beatles too, he’s wrote some of their best songs imo

But damn was he a horrible person

[hidden river]

yeha, he was a prick

[hidden river]

dave is a controversial one, a lot of people like him when he's not wasted

[restive widget]

Yeah

[tawdry ridge]

[vale chasm]

Yep, his riffs are good but goddamn his voice is like nails on a chalkboard (Still better than metal growling)
And he was such an asshole behind the scene so... sorry megadeth

[warped flicker]

Growls are better than Dave's voice

[vale chasm]

Not for me

Why would you fake a voice
And that voice is a growl of a dying gorilla of some shit

[warped flicker]

Singing is a fake voice

Also I can think of a few reasons one would put on a voice

[tawdry ridge]

i like dave's voice

[honest parrot]

I'm a cat person

[vale chasm]

You are so bored you try to be different to get attention from society without earning it

[vale chasm]

No it's not

[warped flicker]

It is tho? It's not your normal voice, you're moving it around

[vale chasm]

You can recognize a clean singer's everyday speech but you might not know how a growler sounds irl

[vale chasm]

That's kinda like distortion on a guitar isn't it

[honest parrot]

I'm dead lol

[vale chasm]

A bit off topic

[umbral pelican]

I was going to react with thumbs up but no reactions 😦

[honest parrot]

do you know what jokes are?

[warped flicker]

Depends

Dave sounds completely different

[vale chasm]

Lets move to #guitar-and-music ?

[wooden plank]

[distant spindle]

nirvana.

[lament pine]

anything that has been placed on tiktok

[warped flicker]

So everything

[worn nova]

Wrong. King Gizzard is a fantastical band

[lament pine]

they were on tiktok?

oh shit

[worn nova]

Every band was on tiktok

[lament pine]

u right

[solemn plume]

In my opinion weezer is incredibly over rated

[spiral dust]

In my opinion your opinion is incredibly over stupid

[vale chasm]

In my opinion both your opinions are overly incorrect

[hidden river]

rude

[worn nova]

in my opinion music is for dummies. Listen to EAS alarms instead

[spiral dust]

https://tenor.com/view/gigachad-chad-gif-20773266

[tulip moon]

in my opinion the opinion thqt you alll have is incredibly opinon which by the way is aint an opinion if you think its opinion

[spiral dust]

Agrred

[surreal quail]

All of thrash, heavy and symphonic metal.

[tawdry ridge]

YIKES

symphonic probably tho

[boreal valley]

Guys

No band is truly overrated

They each have their own respective fanbases

[gritty stirrup]

Man stfu

The Beatles are overrated as hell

[boreal valley]

I was making a joke

[gritty stirrup]

I’m aware

[boreal valley]

Oh cool seems you are too

[gritty stirrup]

😂

[boreal valley]

The word overrated didn't exist in the 1960s, the Eagles had to invent it

[gritty stirrup]

Lol

They only have one song tho

[wooden plank]

False.

They have two

Take It Easy + Hotel California

[gritty stirrup]

My fault

[hidden river]

2

[hidden river]

tele virtuoso know his shit

[tulip moon]

beatles are way more overated but yeah i get your point

[boreal valley]

The Eagles - 1 song
The Beatles - over 200 songs

Ratio

90% of Beatles songs were iconic

[restive widget]

Did you just forget Take it Easy??

How dare you

[humble cargo]

Queen

[worn nova]

For the time. Tho yes Beatles is considerably iconic

[tawdry ridge]

i need this to be animated

[naive maple]

eagles are tough asf

literally the whole hotel california album solos every beatles song ever written

imo

[hoary hare]

tool is awesome wdym!!!???

[spiral dust]

Gold

[wooden plank]

ikr we literally had a whole convo abt it right before he sent that

[boreal valley]

From the 70s onwards, every band was influenced by either the Beatles or Velvet Underground in some way. The 2 most influential bands ever without a doubt

[worn nova]

Influential does not mean good. I mean look at AI images

[boreal valley]

Nobody's ever been influenced by AI?

It's all garbage

I don't entirely disagree but it's just a strange comparison

[worn nova]

The Ai bros? And a lot of the art-related industry?

[boreal valley]

If you're influenced by a robot then that's just sad

I know a few artists and they say their whole community is strongly against AI

[warped flicker]

AI is good for fucking around

That's it tho

[worn nova]

im not agreeing with the movement

honestly its kinda pathetic

[warped flicker]

AI "art" is shit tbh

[spiral dust]

It's definitely a significant advancement in technology but I don't think what AI makes could be considered art

Art, at least to me, has an essentially human component

[warped flicker]

Yeah the tech is neat

[boreal valley]

It's not a movement It's more of a nuisance than anything

[worn nova]

very fair

[lofty summit]

yeah

ai art is art, it just isnt yours

you didnt write it, you didnt join other arts together, you just said something else to do it

[spiral dust]

imo, art is an expression of the human experience and a way to communicate emotion more directly and in a much more profound manner than words can

AI lacks any human experience or emotion, and so while it can generate pictures of things, there's no artistic meaning behind any of it

[hidden river]

there are tho, just not from them, AI don't learn shit from other robots, they learn from humans

[spiral dust]

I don't think it matters what it learns from

If you plagiarize somone's work, your plagiarized copy doesn't necessarily have the same gravity and depth of the original

It could, but simply being a derivative work doesn't cause it to keep all of the artistry of the original

[hidden river]

hm that makes sense

[halcyon grotto]

you are so wrong

[pine spruce]

Has to be nirvana (he killed himself to not be a pick me band)

[boreal valley]

Dude he killed himself bc he was depressed and couldn't take the pain anymore. That's usually why people do it?

[pine spruce]

still nirvana tho 🥱

[vale chasm]

Killing yourself is a dick move, let aside the fact that he had a daughter

[meager fractal]

nirvana is the most overrated band

[umbral pelican]

I agree

[tawdry ridge]

well... that's precisely because depression clouds your judgement, to the point where you end it all. that's how bad it is

it's terrifying

doesn't really fall under the "dick move" category

[spiral dust]

Can confirm

[inland forum]

nirvana is good though

[gritty stirrup]

Deftones

[hidden river]

wise man

bro some ppl think depression is a joke or something

[lofty summit]

!

brother suffered a lot. Having success doesnt mean happy.

his lyrics were a reflection of that so even if nirvana is overrated which i agree, criticizing kurt for killing himself is straight up disgraceful.

[zenith pebble]

I can see why though.. People lable it that because people that do, left something behind, for what? But yeah your right, it does cloud your mind

[hidden river]

mate, if anyone ever made bad decisions we would still be on eden with Eve and Adam lmao

[zenith pebble]

fair

[tawdry ridge]

any disease that kills people makes them leave something behind

[tawdry ridge]

it´s like saying dying of cancer is a dick move

[oak estuary]

ac/dc

[little nacelle]

I might die from this but

Oasis

Ok that’s a joke I actually don’t have one

[zenith pebble]

Die

[dusky yacht]

Mayhem

[meager fractal]

Nirvana

[lilac basin]

billy idol

[warped flicker]

I literally never hear anything about Deftones tbh

[vale chasm]

I dont think so. Why would he have a daughter and a wife to just kill himself. Let aside the fact that there is literally no positives of kys

[vale chasm]

I also dont see a reason to do public concerts/shows and forming a band without a thought that you might become popular

[vale chasm]

I dont think it is, but you dont have to have PhD in psychology to understand that killing yourself when you have a year old daughter and a wife isn't the best move

[hidden river]

ain't the best, but like i said, thre's a lot of bad dessiosions in one's life. I don't see you saying that about someone who do drugs having a child around...

[warped flicker]

Bro what the fuck are you on

Legitimately, respectfully, turn on your brain for a second

[tawdry ridge]

it's literally a disease of the mind

[warped flicker]

Exactly

You don't think straight

You don't think clearly

It clouds everything up

It just hurts so much and the only thing you think is 'it needs to stop it needs to stop it needs to stop' and eventually you get desperate for any kind of relief

It's not like 'I dislike how things are going, gonna end my life and leave my wife and kid behind to pickup the pieces', you literally can't focus on anything other than stopping the pain

So, respectfully, @vale chasm, shut the FUCK UP about shit like this. You clearly don't know what you're on about

[boreal valley]

You really don't get it do you?

[vale chasm]

Like who? Kurt?

[hidden river]

anyone dude, like that a lot of things that aren't in good taste and could fuck you and people do it anyways

smoking will kill, and ppl still smoke as fuck

[vale chasm]

My point being you 90% of depression comes from your own ass moves in life, you shouldn't have published songs if you're depressed bc you're popular, and you definitely shouldn't do drugs, especially with a child growing up in ur family

[hidden river]

people still do man, like the father who drink his ass off and get at home drunk as fuck, making his wife and kids fucked up

people do a lot of shit still, some of them you get enough time to try to recover and make up for, some of them you don't

[vale chasm]

But can you justify this father just bc he was depressed?

[hidden river]

i din't say he was depressed, i said he made poor choices, and made his family mirserable

just like you said kurt did, it consequences ain't no different

[vale chasm]

Yes, that's also why I said would you try and justify him if he was depressed, cause that's literally what Kurt did. He did in fact make his family miserable.

[hidden river]

way worse than torture your own family for years, making them hate you

but this one ain't a cheap move right? only the guy who was ill it was

[vale chasm]

That doesn't sound good also

[hidden river]

i got your point and i think we won't get anywhere here, i ain't change your mind neither you changing mine. But let's watch so we don't disrespect anybody

[vale chasm]

Yeah, I just dont get how y'all be defending him so much, lets move on.

[hidden river]

depression is a desease man, ain't not joke neither a dramatization

[hidden river]

i am not defending him, just telling you nobody takes their own lifes just cause they are selfish assholes

[zenith pebble]

Yeah, like im sure like almost everyone that commits knows they have people that love em but whatever it is thats hurting em is digging in deep enough to where they just can't take it anymore. Or.. your right, it clouds up the mind and they really cant see that anyone loves em

[warped flicker]

Jesus christ

[deep furnace]

Nu uh

[warped flicker]

Bro

That shit is a year and a half old

[tawdry ridge]

xD that's not what depression is

[lofty summit]

at the end of the day, kurt was a paradox. He "didnt want fame" yet complained when his videos didnt appear in MTV, he hated the status quo yet became it...

but regardless, for us to claim he was an asshole for offing himself is incredibly awful. Depression is an illness. Maybe not like cancer but still an illness which needs to be treated.

we cant claim a person with lung cancer due to smoking is an asshole for dying. Same thing for depression

[warped flicker]

100%

[sick rain]

I hate ween

[sick rain]

What the fuck is wrong with you

Oh my God

[prisma condor]

Nirvana

[sick rain]

How

How bruh

[warped flicker]

They have a distinct lack of understanding of depression

[sick rain]

How

I think they understand it well

Givin, uh, kurt cobain?

[warped flicker]

The Igainet mf?

The person you replied to?

[sick rain]

Huh

Kurt cobain killed himself

It's sad

[warped flicker]

Yes

[sick rain]

I don't think they wouldn't understand depression

Also I mean they have amazing songs

Listen to in uterus

[warped flicker]

Have you read through the entire debacle that transpired after they said that?

I'm not talking about Kurt/Nirvana

[sick rain]

Oh

Lmfaoooo

[warped flicker]

I'm talking about the mf that you replied "wtf is wrong with you" to

[sick rain]

Yeah lmfaoo

I'm so sorry

[warped flicker]

It happens lol

Simple misunderstanding

[sick rain]

Yeah I know right?

He's clearly a richkid

Never got it bad at all

[warped flicker]

Or has never felt that kind of pain

[sick rain]

I guess

I just have beef with people who where born into rich families

They are usually the biggest assholes

Usually though

There are some cool ones

[wooden plank]

Does middle class count as rich

[spiral dust]

Then I am one of the smallest assholes

[vale chasm]

Fym im not

[prisma condor]

to a poor person yes to a rich person no

Anyways

nirvana has some good songs but in my opinion other bands were better around that time

[vale chasm]

Depends on the county and what do you mean by middle

[hidden river]

they don't

depression ain't something like a fever that everybody can see that you got and it's bad for you. Therefore some people can't understand how serious this is

[hidden river]

lmao

[spiral dust]

well actually I'm six feet tall, I mean in a figurative sense

[deep furnace]

[silent lion]

Hating on st. Anger is like the most poser opinion ever

[wooden plank]

so true

most of the people who say they hate it have probably never even listened to it 💀

[sick rain]

Are you ok you dumb

ALRIGHT to reiterate I meanRIXH fuckin kids who live in big ass houses

This one kid who was at my school once started crying and acting depressed because, I shit you not, he didn't have a private jet anymore

He was a family friend and was an asshole

Super picky

Had a big ass backyard and hand an indoor movie theater like what the fuck

Also to go back on topic KISS sucks and is genuinely one of the worst bands ever

Gene Simmons' list of the greatest guitarists of all time (which of fucking course he included himself in it) is genuinely wrong

I can't find it but on an interview he was like "man I'm like the last great guitarist everyone after me sucks boohoo

And made a list of like three "rock stars" he considered the greatest ever (which of course had him in it)

Like

Gene

Shut the fuck up

[tawdry ridge]

xD

[manic ridge]

are you ok you dumb

[wooden plank]

excuse me

[sage spruce]

rolling stones maybe

[boreal valley]

St. Anger is shit but I don't think anyone hates it

It's like the Adam Sandler movie of Metallica albums

It's fun, but you know it's pretty garbage

[warped flicker]

@thick dock thoughts on this take

[vale chasm]

What the fuck

[thick dock]

i like adam sandler too

but st anger is written better than most of his movies

[manic ridge]

relatable

[restive widget]

^^^^^^^

It has a meh mix, but the riffs are actually good ngl

Somebody just needs to do a fan made remix where the drums are turned down

[wooden plank]

exactly

[wooden plank]

facts

and honestly the snare wasn't that bad

it's a little weird but it's not a dealbreaker

[silent lion]

I still liked it more than anything they’ve put out afterwards

[tulip moon]

well i just dont like it, its fine not the worst thing ive listened but it aint good either

[gritty stirrup]

Lulu and AJFA drums are worse than St. Anger but no one talks about it

[silent lion]

Lulu yeah but ajfa? Nah

2nd best metallica drums

[gritty stirrup]

Garbage take

[boreal valley]

Death Magnetic is good and the last track on 72 Seasons is awesome despite it being a pretty mid album overall

[silent lion]

Yours is. Drums on ajfa sound great

[warped flicker]

Not really tbh

I mean the whole album sounds like shit but the drums sound kinda mid

[wooden plank]

guys

One is on ajfa

[warped flicker]

And One sucks

Dyer's Eve, which is a banger, is also on AJFA and, despite being a banger, sounds like shit

Because the mix is shit

Because Lars was being an ass to Jason

[slow topaz]

One is good it’s just overplayed

[warped flicker]

Idk, I can feel myself physically checking out whenever I hear it

[quasi surge]

boring?

[tawdry ridge]

i listened to a KISS greatest hits album and was bored shitless

[silent lion]

Yes boring

[quasi surge]

like how

[silent lion]

Like boring

I prefer Led Zeppelin

Though kiss have some eternal songs

[quasi surge]

but how are they boring, whats boring about them to you

[warped flicker]

You've heard one of their songs you've heard em all

[quasi surge]

No

Just no

[warped flicker]

There's maybe like, 3 examples of that not being the case

[quasi surge]

Your wrong

[warped flicker]

Am I though?

It's all just dad rock

It's like AC/DC after Bon Scott died

[quasi surge]

It's not they have great songs

[warped flicker]

They have 3

[quasi surge]

Name the 3

[worthy gazelle]

they have the worst bass line ever

[quasi surge]

what

they have some great bass lines

[worthy gazelle]

look up thunderstruck bass line

[quasi surge]

oh youre talking about acdc

[warped flicker]

War Machine, because it doesn't feel like dad rock

Beth, because it's a heartfelt song that actually has some substance to it and isn't "oh woman tonight" kinda bs

Strutter, because the instrumental is actually good enough to overshadow the dad rock lyrics

[worthy gazelle]

Led Zeppelin has great ones

[quasi surge]

master and slave is a great one so is jungle, tears are falling, i stoel your love, mr speed, I, the oath, mordern day deliliah, Hell Or Hallelujah

those are a couple good ones

aswell as

Great Expectations,King Of The Night Time World, She, deuce, black diamond forever and hide your heart

all great kiss songs just of the top of my head

[spiral dust]

I don't think I've ever listened to KISS

[sage spruce]

maybe accidentally ?

[spiral dust]

I've probably heard a kiss song

At some point

[wooden plank]

this

[boreal valley]

You're not missing out

[spiral dust]

They seem more like performers than musicians

[boreal valley]

True

[spiral dust]

If your Thing™️ is face paint and one guy having a really long tongue,

[ocean warren]

im gonna say it like this: for what people wer expecting from metallica, it sounded horrible. but if a band in another genre would have released it, maybe a less known band, then it people would be like: ooh this is cool

[tawdry ridge]

pretty much

[restive widget]

I think the real poser opinion is just hating on Metallica and saying they sold out just because of that era

People have been saying Metallica has sold out ever since like Ride the Lightning

Just because the album begins with an acoustic guitar arrangement and people are like “this band sucks they’re using acoustic guitars now???”

I’d say the time where they actually sold out was the Napster thing but even then I feel like that was strictly just Lars

[restive widget]

I think the appeal with KISS back then was the fact that that whole thing they did was seen as satanic and evil by parents

And naturally anything that’s supposed to be forbidden attracts people (ex “don’t eat the forbidden fruit”)

[tawdry ridge]

yeah it's all about aesthetics

anyone who actually appreciates good music listens to W.A.S.P. instead

[restive widget]

But now that we’re like wayyy past that now and nobody sees KISS as evil and satanic anymore, they’re just became irrelevant

[tawdry ridge]

was replying to the kiss thing not napster btw xD

[restive widget]

People will also say they pioneered glam rock/metal but that’s up to debate

[restive widget]

All good, happens lmao

Also black metal bands didn’t put on corpse paint cause they were inspired by KISS or Alice Cooper, they did it because they thought it really made them look like a dead body

Or at least that’s why the guys from Mayhem did it

[restive widget]

It’s a shame that none of the glam albums are easy to find

The band just wants to forget that era existed and act like Cowboys from Hell is their debut album

Even tho they actually were pretty heavy on Power Metal

[tawdry ridge]

branding is everything

and you can only push the current brand

[wooden plank]

Lol plenty of death and thrash metal bands have acoustic guitar parts

[restive widget]

Well yeah but that's literally what people thought back then

[wooden plank]

the problem with gatekeeping is that you usually look like an idiot lol

[restive widget]

Agreed

[vale chasm]

Fym people are saying this? +it sounds awesome in that song. +RTL is a great album

[restive widget]

Well yes but you have to realize this was back when the album came out in the 80s and people back then just saw using acoustic guitars on a metal album lame

But it doesn’t mean it’s lame of course

[lilac basin]

primus

whatever ammount of fame they have they deserve less

i like how the primus spotify page has a ton of public playlists with random music mashups

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2MN3EQiUUxyxmyr3DQUme0?si=unBM9JPIRVq35ak4t3sMeg&utm_source=native-share-menu

was the primus spotify account made by a fan or by one of the primus members

[gritty stirrup]

Gang that is not primus 😭

[spiral dust]

You're wrong, Primus sucks

[lilac basin]

i believe you don't understand what "less" means

[spiral dust]

I believe you don't understand what "Primus sucks" means

[urban crow]

weezer

[tawdry ridge]

primus sucks bro

[lilac basin]

i am literally saying they should have less fans

those 70 million something people should be reduced to 0

[tawdry ridge]

primus sucks tho

[lilac basin]

70 million is still way too big for what theyre crapping out

[gritty stirrup]

Primus sucks

[tawdry ridge]

yeah man primus sucks, u need to understand that

[warped flicker]

the whole vibe of primus is they suck, it's literally their motto

[tawdry ridge]

HE RUINED IT

we could have kept that going for a good 30 mins at least

[spiral dust]

Advocating for Primus genocide?!?!

[lilac basin]

have police officers check the houses of suspected primus fans for any sort of merchandise cd's etc

[wooden plank]

indeed primus sucks

[wooden plank]

DAMN I GOT HERE TOO LATE SMH

[slow talon]

slipknot

[tropic oyster]

queen

[boreal valley]

Primus could be the most hated band ever and they'd still be overrated

[warped flicker]

Yeah bro primus sucks

[vale chasm]

I thought it wasn't bad till I heard the vocals...
"Jrywsarascardrivah"

[spiral dust]

Primus is so bad it passes good, wraps back around to bad and then winds up at good

[warped flicker]

Like I said

Primus sucks

[slow topaz]

Yes

[lilac basin]

having someone listen to primus is the equivalent of waterboarding for your ears

[spiral dust]

That's why it's good sucky

[hidden river]

man this topic will never end, jeez

[vale chasm]

This topic literally exists only for primus

[tawdry ridge]

primus sucks

[warped flicker]

Primus sucks

[gritty stirrup]

Primus sucks

[lofty summit]

eh i kinda like primus

i mean, primus sucks

[reef marlin]

Polyphia

[tawdry ridge]

polyphia sucks

[spiral dust]

scrawny preteen plays ten minutes of guitar noises
WAOW HE'S SO GOOD!!!!

[boreal valley]

Bro a guitar shouldn't even be making them sounds

Polyphia sounds like 10 minutes of pinball machine noises

[spiral dust]

ding ding patoom smack ponk flop plow

[frosty tartan]

Polyphia is ass. Can’t agree more

[unique wedge]

same guy saying we will rock you and another brick in the wall are the best guitar solos of all time

[vale chasm]

He's right about polyphia but that solo take is horrible

[warped flicker]

Technically a guitar shouldn't be making pinch harmonic noises or divebomb sounds either

[vale chasm]

Why shouldn't it do divebombs? I mean if a guitar comes with a whammy bar why not... use it?

[warped flicker]

Cause it's a guitar, not an airplane

[vale chasm]

So if we rename a divebomb into a "Notedropping" or smth it will be fixed?

[warped flicker]

I say that as a defense to Polyphia's playing, I care more about what you can do with the guitar than what it's 'supposed' to do

[warped flicker]

My favorite guitar in my collection has a floyd lol

My point is if you can do something to make the guitar produce a certain sound, why not see if you can make something with it?

I.e. Johnny Cash's paper snare trick

Or slide/'bottleneck' playing

Or tapping

Or pinch harmonics

Flutters

Thumping

Etc.

Make a wierd sound and make something cool with it

[vale chasm]

To play a guitar is to pluck the strings. P.h, tapping and sliding all incorporate with the strings

[warped flicker]

So does thumping

[vale chasm]

Tim is just S.A ing a guitar

[warped flicker]

And literally anything else you do technique wise with an instrument

You can't have a playing technique that doesn't incorporate the strings in some way

[vale chasm]

Jk thats actually good

[warped flicker]

My favorite motto when I play is "what's the wierdest sound I can make and how can I use it?"

[unique wedge]

well its subjective

just poking fun

[restive widget]

Don’t forget Paul Gilbert’s drill thing

[warped flicker]

Yeah that was cool as fuck

[restive widget]

And yeah the whammy bar is meant to only be like an expressive thing that you use to wiggle the note a bit, it wasn’t meant to dive bomb

But the design of the 6 point trem allowed it to

[vale hound]

Rush 🤮

[umbral pelican]

I going to beat you in 7/4 time.

[austere jewel]

Chase Atlantic, literally just a product of marketing to spew out more cash for a record label

[boreal valley]

Most prog bands honestly

[vale hound]

Yeah fr

[vale hound]

Pink Floyd sucks too

[boreal valley]

Not a fan, not as bad as the others tho

They have a couple good songs

[vale hound]

What's your opinion on linkin park

[lofty summit]

listen to dogs and come back

that song alone makes me appreciate them a lot

[worthy gazelle]

The best band ever 😳

[vale hound]

No

They are ass

Linkin park sucks ass

[vale beacon]

damn prog haters

[obtuse scarab]

I think bohemian rhapsody is but queen in general is pretty different to that

100% gene Simmons is an asshole and kiss sounds garbage

[vale hound]

I don't think that way anymore

[obtuse scarab]

Oh fuck I didn’t see the date

[vale hound]

Yeah

[obtuse scarab]

Mb bro good on you

[vale hound]

That was like 2 years ago im chill with whatever pronoun now lol

[restive widget]

2 years ago jeez

[warped flicker]

Good on ya G

[naive maple]

facts

[sick rain]

Linkin park isn't that bad

I'm personally not a fan but they aren't bad tho

[boreal valley]

Pretty shit in my opinion

[vale hound]

Good opinion

[hidden river]

loool chil bro

[hidden river]

bro how can you been here for almost 2 years and still rant on mike ?

[vale hound]

Huh

[hidden river]

haha nevermind

[vale hound]

Who is Mike

[hidden river]

holstein

[hidden river]

bor is that you in your pfp?

[vale hound]

No

[vale hound]

I don't rant on him anymore he's cool

[hidden river]

nice good on you again

[vale hound]

Yeah

[unique wedge]

"i like Green Day, Metallica, SOAD, Nirvana, Korn, Slayer, Alice In Chains etc"

[vale hound]

What's wrong with that

They are good bands

[unique wedge]

nothings wrong

its your opinion

[obtuse scarab]

What

[vale hound]

Why did you quote that then

[vale chasm]

Cause like people might be insecure that their bands are too basic or smth

[vale hound]

Huh

[vale chasm]

Like some guy might be insecure that if he says that his fav band is nirvana people will call him a poser

[vale hound]

Oh

You're only a poser if u only like the popular songs by nirvana but say u are a huge fan

[wooden mica]

Not a band but Taylor swift is the most overhyped person in America. Overrated in the metal community has to be Korn and Slipknot, only for their vocals.

[vale chasm]

I heard Korn vocals and wanted to puke

"Aeauayeeayaerrrre"

[grizzled birch]

WHAT

that hurt me

[vale hound]

I love korn

Slipknot I like too but I agree they are very overrated

I like thrash more than nu metal tbh but nu metal is still good

I love korn soad lb and slipknot the rest sucks imo

I def agree abt Taylor swift she sucks

[placid mural]

Polyphia

[unique wedge]

same reason you said rush

this sub channel or whatever was for overrated bands

[vale hound]

None of those bands in my bio are overrated

[vale hound]

Fr

[unique wedge]

whatever you say boss

[vale hound]

Popular ≠ overrated

[unique wedge]

overrated = overrated

[vale hound]

Lots of popular music is overrated but just because something's popular doesn't make it overrated

[vale hound]

No shit

[unique wedge]

but the definition may vary for different people

ig

pretty overrated in my book but whatever

maybe not nirvana they have had an immense cultural impact and made cool music

[warped flicker]

I'd say Rush has had a decent cultural impact

Some great music too

[unique wedge]

agreed

[vale hound]

Nirvana isn't overrated

[vale hound]

Rush is talented but their sound is ass

[unique wedge]

I don't even particularly like rush but definitely not super overrated in the mainstream

maybe overrated as a prog rock band

[vale hound]

They sound like shit and geddy lee sounds like a senior citizen who never hit puberty

[unique wedge]

bro didn't read the sentence

[vale hound]

Rush isn't necessarily overrated just bad

[vale hound]

I did

I was agreeing with you

[unique wedge]

👍

[warped flicker]

Robert Plant sounds like that too

[vale hound]

Not imo

[unique wedge]

I think Plant has a more pleasant voice

[vale hound]

Led Zeppelin is light years better than rush

[unique wedge]

and interesting

[unique wedge]

in your opinion

I agree but its your opinion

[vale hound]

Led Zeppelin had a lot more influence afaik too

[vale hound]

And yours as well

[warped flicker]

I disagree

[unique wedge]

yes but if we are talking about from a musical standpoint like innovation in the genre of rock and whatnot

[warped flicker]

Not to say Zeppelin isn't good, they have some bangers

[unique wedge]

it can be definitely argued that zeppelin are on the same musical level aswell tho with later albums

maybe not their earlier ones tho

and definitely not individually on each instrument

[warped flicker]

Yeah every member of Rush was a powerhouse, live and in the studio

Vs Zep, who'd have the cleanest studio shit ever and then fuck it up live

[unique wedge]

nah not fuck it up but definitely not clean live

[vale hound]

Yeah

[unique wedge]

accept JPJ

Page wasnt particularly clean in the studio either tbh lol

made a great sound tho

[vale hound]

Dave mustaine is definitely the most clean guitarist for sure

[unique wedge]

satire or no

[warped flicker]

[vale hound]

Satire

[warped flicker]

I was boutta say

[unique wedge]

thank goodness

[vale hound]

He's a good guitarist but not clean

[unique wedge]

you are a wiring addict?

do you know how much it would cost to replace the electronics in my strat with ones that are actually good quality lol

[vale hound]

Huh

[unique wedge]

the person with it in their name

[warped flicker]

Me

[vale hound]

Oh

Im blind

[tawdry ridge]

rock n roll
"clean"

[jade pivot]

this is old as hell post and real as hell. my friend put on one of their album and acted like they had a life changing experience and then i listened to it and i was just like almost falling out of my chair out of boredom

but other than that definitly OASIS

[silent lion]

You like Green Day buddy you have no moral right to shit on linkin park

[vale hound]

I realize Green Day isn't a "good" band but i still like them

Linkin park is straight ass

Worst band ever

[tawdry ridge]

🎣

[silent lion]

Yet again

You like Green Day who have like a grand total of two decent and one good song

Linkin Park is one of the best nu metal bands ever

Tho I wanna hear your reasoning behind why they are ass

Great riffs, unusual sound, killer vocals

[worthy gazelle]

I have the reasoning. His tastes are corrupted by excessive tiktok usage

[silent lion]

Lmao

Sounds about right

[left python]

knocked loose vocals are so garbage how do people tolerate it

[vale hound]

Green Day's less popular stuff is better

American idiot and everything after is ass except the new album

[timber tundra]

Boulevard and Holiday is good though

[vale hound]

Not at all

Holiday is ok

Boulevard is a shitty emo song

[timber tundra]

I mean yeah ngl

im over ti now

*it

[silent lion]

Still you haven’t given any reason why linkin park is ass

[timber tundra]

idk why i prefer the acoustic type version of it, personally it sounds better

[timber tundra]

who said that

[silent lion]

Burt

He said that linkin park just sucks ass

[timber tundra]

Linkin Park is good

[silent lion]

No reason given

[vale hound]

Chester's voice is shit and their music is way too overproduced

[silent lion]

It’s a genre defining band

[silent lion]

Lmfao

[vale hound]

Too many stupid effects

The rap in their music sounds stupid too

[silent lion]

yeah figures why you’re a green day fan

[vale hound]

No, korn is the genre defining band for nu metal

[timber tundra]

...

[vale hound]

Nu metal is a shit genre

[vale hound]

I like way better stuff than Green Day

[silent lion]

Just drums, bass, drums and 3 chords on the guitar

[silent lion]

Meanwhile loves soad

Lmfao

[vale hound]

Korn and soad are the only good bands from the genre

The rest is shit

[silent lion]

Because you haven’t listened to any other ones?

[timber tundra]

Burt im sorry if i offend u but, your name is similar to Kurt Cobain

[vale hound]

Limp bizkit sucks, linkin park sucks, disturbed sucks, etc

[vale hound]

I'm aware

My real name isn't Burt this is a play on his name

[silent lion]

Bro listens to pop punk and is ranting about how nu metal is shit

[vale hound]

I listen mainly to thrash metal

[silent lion]

What bands

[timber tundra]

wait so ur name is supposed to be like Kurt here?

[silent lion]

Metallica, slayer and Megadeth?

[vale hound]

Testament, exodus, slayer, overkill, suicidal tendencies, death angel, just to name the more popular ones

[silent lion]

And still you have such horrible takes on music

[vale hound]

Not really

But you can believe that buddy

Just because i hate linkin park doesn't mean i have bad takes

[silent lion]

You say that nu metal is a shit genre

[vale hound]

Yes

Because it is

[silent lion]

Tik tok ass opinion

[vale hound]

Cool

Most TikTok brainrot idiots are in love with nu metal

[silent lion]

And the other half of idiots like you shits on nu metal because it’s popular

[vale hound]

I don't shit on it because it's popular I shit on it because it sucks ass

If i shit on stuff because it were popular why would i have the bands in my bio that i have

[silent lion]

Idk because you are have moronic music takes?

[vale hound]

I don't actually though

[silent lion]

Anyway have fun hating a genre for being overproduced

Take care

[vale hound]

Of course

[vale hound]

You too

[warped flicker]

Ah yes I too hate when music doesn't sound like it was recorded in a basement on a phone mic

[placid mural]

yeah live performances are litterly better than the records mtv unpulluged performance its just world best acoustic performance i think

no one can sing like him

i dont think all bands not overrated its just some pepole just likeing it very much or hating it without looking there albumes song performances etc.

i dont like the music of Polyphia but its not that bad its unique but some pepole say tim henson the best gutiarist its hard to not hate them

[worthy gazelle]

Meanwhile the best nu metal bands are in his bio, tiktok does crazy things...

[silent lion]

Yeah

The hypocrisy

[obtuse scarab]

With all due respect how many mtv unpluggeds gave you heard

[jade pivot]

no way bud just shat on nu metal cause its too mainstream and tik tok annd then only names the most base level bands from one of if not the biggest metal genre lmao

i find it hilarious how all these young metal gatekeepers shit on other genres cause theyre too mainstream then listen to the most mainstream metal genre and most mainstream bands of that genre and then think theyre really really underground when they listen to mayhem lmao these youngsters are hilarious but thats just me as an oldhead

[jade pivot]

make better music then bud

[vale hound]

Only reason i put popular bands in my bio or talk about popular bands is so people get a general idea of my music taste

[jade pivot]

sure bud sure have a nice time rockin out on that fender frontman 15g

this old guys out

[vale hound]

The hell you talking about

That's a horrible amp

[jade pivot]

by your horrible opinions ust seems like the kinda amp youd be trying to play

[vale hound]

Hell no

Got a Marshall half stack

[jade pivot]

its not about the amp or how big the amp is

its really about

how good your pedals are

.

lol

[vale hound]

No it's about what you play

A good guitarist can make any shitty amp sound good if they play well

In my opinion

[jade pivot]

lmao ok mr sage advice

come back to me when you been playin guitar for over 40 years

[vale hound]

Ok

[bleak kindle]

I'm a nirvana fan I think only something in the way is getting kinda operated coz of the new batman movie ig

[restive widget]

The “new” Batman movie was 2 years ago I think people have moved on now

But I get your point

[bleak kindle]

Yea thnx for getting my point it slapped an impact upon kids frankly

[tropic oyster]

chad

[reef marlin]

With all due respect i have yet to find a human who actually enjoys listening to polyphia songs and not just nerd out on the guitar techniques

[warped flicker]

I'm standing right here

[gritty stirrup]

Me too

[tawdry ridge]

o really? name every bleep and bloop

[vale chasm]

I think Tim Henson should be charged for sa'ing his guitars

[gritty stirrup]

Wild statement

[warped flicker]

So should EVH and Vai then

[unique wedge]

hes not wrong tho unless its an literal piece of junk

even cheap ones can sound aight

[jade pivot]

lmao i agree i was making a joke but tbh the whole "its not the gear its the player" stuff annoys me ik its true but i just cringe so hard everytime someone says it

thats why in my shop i just have a huge banner that says less talent more fuzz

[unique wedge]

fair

[vale chasm]

Dude a shitty e note will sound like a shitty e note on a shitty amp no matter who plays it

[vale hound]

What

Just playing one e note will sound bad on anything

That's not even playing anything

[vale chasm]

But to play something you could use an e note. My point being shitty amps are shitty amps and no player could magically make it sound like a thousand dollar Marshall

[vale hound]

They obviously can't make the tone better

But its about what you play

That's what matters most

[austere jewel]

Saying linkin park sucks is wild, at least give credit to chester's vocals

[vale hound]

I do respect him as a vocalist.

[austere jewel]

I really wouldn't pin down too much on linkin park hate, i would say they're overrated to an extent. Some people would say it's the best shit when there's alot more bands that can do better even at a situation where you're comparing apples to oranges

I think it just boils down to some people just giving too much praise to linkin park than they should be getting. Not saying they're bad, for nu metal, they did quite good.

[obtuse scarab]

N I R V A N A

[boreal valley]

Bruh

You miss spelled "Radiohead"

[gritty stirrup]

they are both overrated

[jade pivot]

tbh based for nevermind but like incesticide is sooo good

[obtuse scarab]

@boreal valley Lol

[jade pivot]

metallica

[hasty kiln]

Metallica

[austere jewel]

if we're talking overrated then atleast specify the era of the band, i owuld argue as much as nevermind is a good album, it's overrated nowadays. beyond that, i think there's a good amount of worth to nirvana and them having the status as of today is called for.

Just look at the quality of In Utero and tell me you don't like atleast 3 songs from the record. They might be popular but that don't mean their quality doesn't make up for it. With that, I don't think they're overrated, i think they're properly rated.

granted, the rhythm sections are super easy to pull off but here's the thing, the fact that kurt got away with that type of guitar playing and still became famous for it says something about him as a musician rather than just the masses imo

[tiny garnet]

kurt may have not been a good guitarist but he was a damn good songwriter 😄 thats why nirvana is successful

[tawdry ridge]

that, coupled with a great voice

[slow talon]

insane most appaling take of the century

[sick rain]

Slash, his whole brand is that he's "one of the greats" and being a porn addict

Plus his song writing ability is questionable

There are better rock guitarist nowadays

And yet he gets a gibson/epiphone sig every fucking year

[warped flicker]

Agree

[misty bloom]

i mean all of those bands have some good songs, but yeah some of them dont deserve the amount of fame they have imo

im a fan of both of these bands but i agree that they are a bit overrated. Although sometimes there is beauty in simplicity, in the case of blink.

yeah blue album was good and then they never made another good album

[gritty stirrup]

Van Halen

Eddie is a good guitarist but his bands music isn’t that good

[lilac basin]

i dont understand why people ignore the importance of vocals so much i mean ive seen people force themselves to get used to a singer because the instrumental is very good

megadeth iron maiden bon jovi acdc they all have awful singers

mustaine sounds like his spirit animal is a mosquito
the acdc guy sounds like a chihuahua that got kicked in the huevos

idk what to associate the other 2 with

one person i really love the voice of is dio

dude is literally angelic

fletcher most of the time doesn't even sound like he is singing he's just talking

almost like his songs are made for drunk karaoke or something

[vale chasm]

Mustaine voice is a mood thing honestly but he does sound awful in some song
Bon Jovi take is terrible he's a good singer

[lilac basin]

with bon jovi it's not as obvious in some of his songs but i've felt quite a few times something is off

it's most likely just a me problem though because i've unwillingly heard him so much

it's like saying the same word so many times that you end up feeling like the word sounds off

i can't really explain it

plus i associate bon jovi with drunk white college girls

[boreal valley]

What's more appalling is you assuming I asked for your opinion

[warped flicker]

[slow talon]

Radiohead solos Nirvana ez

[hollow bronze]

Most death metal bands, it’s all just growl and low tuned guitar(I love metal)

[tawdry ridge]

[lilac basin]

oh i almost forgot

audioslave has a SUCKY vocalist

the beginning of cochise says it all

it's almost like he forces himself way too much

i can only imagine how he sounds live

[vale chasm]

https://tenor.com/view/aaa-cowboy-aaa-cowboy-music-video-gif-15142935

For some reason he reminds me of this

[boreal valley]

Again, did I ask?

[slow talon]

😛

[austere jewel]

there are songs where he just says fuck it and hits notes way higher than his expected range like hairspray queen

[austere jewel]

he's overrated for sure but marketable

[lofty summit]

most impressive is that his voice was natural, he didnt have any training his voice just kinda did that

granted nirvana is still the second most overrated “grunge” band

(pearl jam is by far number 1)

[sick rain]

I'm on the same page as you

[civic pivot]

Not rammstein

[primal cloud]

Coked up Elmo

[primal cloud]

AC/DC guy

[quasi lotus]

tf how you making the claim that chris cornell is sucky, you do realize he is also vocalist for soundgarden and temple of the dog right?

[warped flicker]

Have you heard any other Audioslave songs?

The vox on Show Me How to Live are great

[quasi lotus]

I agree with him that cochise is him pushing his vocals, but in a way that is what is great about the lyrics in the song, he recorded a song so well it couldnt be recreated

[lilac basin]

nope lmao but now that I listened to the audioslave album I must say it's solid and I'm surprised I did not realise earlier soudgarden and audioslave have the same vocalist

also imagine if audioslave had a song called audioslave in the audioslave album

https://open.spotify.com/track/6KmJMlyPp0rPR7LloToCaF?si=EMEJ3gm4QU6dVT6zvBrLnw&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A3OmnatFgQ8o1DlYLp9EpNJ

[glossy aspen]

Metallica

to clarify, Metallica is very good, one of my favorites.

there's just a lot more interesting bands that Metallica stole.

like Megadeth

And it's not because I'm a Megadeth fan. I love Metallica and Megadeth equally, it's just that musically Megadeth are much more interesting.
Even Pantera could have been in Metallica's place, and deservedly so.

but if you don't take Metallica, the worst band in the populace, and also the most overrated, is of course Slayer

[tawdry ridge]

WRONG

[glossy aspen]

what's wrong?

[tawdry ridge]

most of their early albums are riff-orgies, toms vocals are insane, they were extremely influential, and everyone and their granny and their dog continuously shits on them. you can't call them overrated

sure kerry king's solos are dumb af

but there's more to it

[glossy aspen]

This is how most thrash metal bands can be described.

they don't stand out in any way

[tawdry ridge]

minus the pioneering part 😏

[glossy aspen]

Kerry King's guitar playing is simply terrifying

[tawdry ridge]

his solos are ugly and hellish by design, i think i get what the intention is, but it's overdone

extremely overdone

but that alone is slayer's only drawback imo

their 80s catalogue is packed with classics & bangers, they earned their place

[glossy aspen]

ok, maybe I'm really wrong

But

I know one group that is very popular in the CIS

this is the worst thing I've ever heard

"King and the Clown"

[tawdry ridge]

didn't hear

from russia you mean?

[glossy aspen]

yes

in Russia now even young people are fans of it

their music is on par with pop music in popularity

[tawdry ridge]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korol_i_Shut

[glossy aspen]

exactly

it's just awful

[tawdry ridge]

now im curios, got any song you'd (not) recommend

[glossy aspen]

Кукла Колдуна (Kukla Kolduna)

Лесник (Lesnik)

The members of this group themselves claim that the meaning of their life is to sing shit about shit while being in shit

[tawdry ridge]

oh yeah this genre is really not my thing, i hate folky-rock stuff

its so cheesy

[glossy aspen]

this is punk rock

and each of the group members drank their own urine

to words

[tawdry ridge]

bruh xD

[glossy aspen]

SoFarSoGoodSoWhat

[glossy aspen]

this is what I understand music

[tawdry ridge]

yeah i think i prefer megadeth over metallica overall

there are more things that excite the ears, more intricate guitar work and dave's vocals have a distinct flavour that suits it too

[glossy aspen]

Even as a Megadeth fan I admit that Dave's vocals are at least strange

and not according to the canons

but it catches the ear

[tawdry ridge]

ye

[sick rain]

If anyone says the beatles I'm going to hunt you down

[warped flicker]

People already have

This band wasn't popular among young people for obvious reasons until about a year or so ago when they released a movie about it. It became popular, and the"im so different and not like the others" people aging about 11 came saying that they are punks, they listen to korol I shut, yeah! While cant name more than 2 songs (Lesnik and kukla kolduna) also a funny thing that they hate pop music for being popular. kinda like nirvana sweater guys

A little nerdy explanation. So yeah this band is overrated asf

[silent lion]

Overrated punk band with a more annoying fan base than that of Mayhem or Metallica

[little nacelle]

I’m going to get pitch forked and burned but Green Day

[reef marlin]

I stand by you

[little nacelle]

Thank you

[gritty stirrup]

I stand against you

[nimble lion]

"Nirvana is the greatest band of all time!" Nirvana:

[gritty stirrup]

Amazing name

[nimble lion]

Fr fr

[scenic dawn]

ACDC

[native viper]

Don't kill me for this but Green Day is such an overrated punk band

[warped flicker]

As a punk band yes

But tbh they're not really punk anymore

[fiery spindle]

Metallica is SO overrated

[meager fractal]

nirvana and ac dc

[restive widget]

Funny thing is Kurt didn’t like AC/DC and one of the members of AC/DC didn’t like Kurt

[devout trellis]

it is overrated overall but they bang sometimes

[warped flicker]

Even Foamf has a couple bangers believe it or not

Sugar Youth and Take The Money and Crawl are both on my speeding playlist lol

[lofty tiger]

Not band but song: Mary on a Cross by Ghost. I actually find Ghost to be overall an awesome band (been listening since the beginning, introduced by a Stevie T vid years ago) but damn has Tik Tok made that song overplayed.

[terse mantle]

Over a long enough period, any band that has gotten it's proper due will get overrated. It's just what time does to opinions.

I'd love to find my 'The Beatles are both the best band ever and wildly overrated' rant from like a year ago in this thread but that's the gist of it

[hoary hare]

slipknot… coming from a still listener. theyre good but not as good as people praise them to be

[verbal cipher]

Metallica and Nirvana

[lilac basin]

tool

complex music good production not as deep of a message as superfans think their music has

and the singer hates his own fanbase

and fear inoculum sucks in comparison to their other albums but thats only cause it has to compete against absolute titans

sober is also mid but thats only cause their sound was still developing

sober as an album the song sober is peak but the sober album has some less enjoyable songs

[scenic dawn]

Yea I really don’t get why everyone likes nirvana so much

[tiny garnet]

tool fan and unfortunately this is true, every single fan overhypes them when they are not all that

im also just salty because i went to a concert and they didnt play any hit songs

[gritty stirrup]

They seem to do that

[terse mantle]

Has Tool had a real hit in like. A decade? I know they've put out solid albums but Schism is the last time I remember them releasing charting singles

Also, I was a freshman in high school when Stinkfist was huge. That is upsetting now.

Also, Stinkfist went to #1 in Canada cause we're awesome

[green stream]

the doors

i had to

im sorry

[lilac basin]

what did they play

[hollow bronze]

I’m don’t get The Rolling Stones hype

Not even really hype just a lot a of people really like there music

[iron sedge]

Anything DQ listens to

[tranquil garden]

Oh you found that

[ocean warren]

But also, their newer albums aren‘t as bad as fans make them sound. I think the newest one is kinda mid but we are not your kind is actualy a pretty good album. But yeah, i genuinely agree with you

[turbid knot]

Heard of their other hits? One vision. Break trough. I want to break free. And more.

[restive widget]

Yes I have

But the movie definitely reignited their popularity with younger generations

And also that message was sent two years ago now lmfao

[turbid knot]

Lmao yeah. I just decided to take a look at the different channels. Not bottered to take a look at date haha

But can we agree dire Straits is either very under rated or under apreaciated?

[fluid peak]

dire straits is accurately rated

they are appreciated

[obtuse scarab]

Nirvana

And I’d also say the beatles

[gritty stirrup]

I agree I don't want to hear any of this "they were influential" bs like of course they were their music just isn't that good

[obtuse scarab]

Exactly my point

[tawdry ridge]

[patent river]

The beatles have like 4 good songs and the rest are the cause of modern day depression. I swear

And metallica. They have lots of good songs, but you have to sift through the twenty thousand MOP ripoffs.

[restive widget]

Those are 🔥 takes

[patent river]

I have full body paralysis up to my neck because of the burns.

[steep hill]

Fr

real

real

Taylor Swift has no right of being fangirled to heaven and beyond my teenage girls while literally doing nothing but singing with autotune and strumming 4 chords on live shows while playing songs she didnt even write and the songs arent even good

[steep hill]

Yeah kinda real

[steep hill]

Yes

[steep hill]

Nirvana isnt really overrated in that sense, its Nevermind in particular. Most mfs only listen to Nevermind, never touched In Utero and dont even know that Bleach or Incesticide exist.

[tawdry jacinth]

Bruh that post was 2 years old

[steep hill]

Idc

[solemn pine]

well maybe her music isn't the most complicated but you have to admit that's she's great at what she does, specially within the music industry- she knows what she's doing when it comes to being a preformed and selling music

[steep hill]

Shes good at singing her songs and strumming 4 chords yeah

[royal loom]

Polyphia

I mean

Polyphia’s “G.O.A.T”

[solemn pine]

bruh having a elitist mindset is gonna get you nowhere lmao you gotta be open

she's good at what she does regardless of what you think of her music

[steep hill]

True

[steep hill]

Im open trust me
