yeah ACxDC are the real deal despite the jokiness (unlike, say, Neckbeard Deathcamp, which is just a joke). Satan is King was a killer album.

i'm hearing Boys of Summer meets Missing You by John Waite, but i'm not mad about it? also how the fuck does anyone dance to Desolation Row? it's probably my favorite Dylan song but it's literally 11 straight minutes of monotone

i mean, it's possible to be against capitalism without advocating for Soviet-style Party communism. why are people still arguing with USSR strawmen? that's not really what socialists are talking about nowadays. i don't think contemporary socialists are under any illusions that bigotry is a uniquely capitalist problem. it's just that capitalism exacerbates bigotry in uniquely capitalist ways (and tries to solve for those problems in weirdly capitalist ways too, such as corporate wokeness campaigns)

Chop Suey is one of those songs where, i literally remember the exact traffic light my mom was stopped at, when it came on the radio and i heard it for the first time. i was still really into Marilyn Manson at the time, and skeptical of most other nu metal, but i had never heard anything like that and was hooked instantly. they had a lot of great one-off and random soundtrack songs around this time as well, like "Marmalade" and their cover of "The Metro"

megalate to this party, but decided to throw this out there anyway. not claiming these are the "best" of anything, just records that meant a lot to me at one point or another: 1. marilyn manson- mechanical animals (i can't defend MM on any level, but this was the first metal album i ever got into as an edgelord teen) 2. system of a down- toxicity 3. rammstein- mutter 4. isis- panopticon 5. mastodon- blood mountain 6. baroness- red album 7. disfear- live the storm 10. kylesa- spiral shadow 11. agrimonia- rites of separation 12. slugdge- esoteric malacology 13. artificial brain- infrared horizon 14. sunlight's bane- the blackest volume 15. sigh- heir to despair 16. venom prison- samsara 17. coldworld- melancholie^2 18. ulcerate- stare into death and be still 19. trap them- darker handcraft 20. esoctrilihum- inhuma 21. boris- pink 22. woe- withdrawal 23. igorrr- savage sinusoid 24. ghost brigade- until fear no longer defines us 25. kvelertak- meir

i do love Endless for successfully pulling off a "yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah" chorus

so what's everyone's favorite non-advance-release Glow On track? for me it's gotta be New Heart Design - those guitars are pure ear candy. the rare & elusive hardcore headphones album.

they really did the damn thing, i think this is my favorite pop-punk album since PUP's debut

fucked up just released a 90 minute rock opera about a magic horse, if that foreshadows anything for turnstile then i am all in

it's the chorus effect from "iris" by goo goo dolls on the guitar for me, plus reading along with the lyrics always helps for big thief

just once i'd like to see a shoegaze band morph into a hardcore band instead of the other way around. slowdive powerviolence album when?

"Ghost’s popularity still confuses me greatly" Ghost are a fantastic introduction to harsh metal aesthetics for those who are still too scared of harsh metal sonics. Pretty much all of my friends who are normies but starting to dip their toes into extreme metal got in via Ghost or Deafheaven.

not a huge fan of bands releasing like half the album in advance but this track smokes so i can't complain too much

i don't have any hard data, but when i don't know what else to listen to, i listen to Hop Along, so i wouldn't be surprised if "Sister Cities" was my most listened-to song.

thanks for this, reminds me of the God Program ep from last year

this is like when they released "Moon" as an advance single for Time & Space. people were like "wtf, this doesn't sound like Turnstile". turned out to be a perfect palette cleanser in between rowdier tracks on T&S. that's kind of their thing- for every "High Pressure", there's a "Disco".

the new Thy Catafalque definitely has some magically shitty moments. it's got these incredibly dumb chugga chugga groove metal bits which are offputting for Thy Cat, but because they're juxtaposed with mystical synth and Hungarian folklore, it kinda... works? like a weirdo "Worker and Parasite" version of Rammstein.

this dummy doesn't seem to realize andy ngo isn't some neutral party with an inside scoop on antifa. dude was literally marching with proud boys when he got soaked with a milkshake and got so mad that he wrote a whole book full of easily debunked bullshit. pretty sure he is insisting to this day that the milkshake had concrete in it, which is not a thing. incidentally, Concrete Milkshake would be an excellent name for a hardcore band.

very excited for Lucy, but i think y'all forgot that ME REX came out last week! i even ordered the deck of cards because i'm a nerd. cautiously curious about Darkthrone, i wasn't crazy about their last album but the advance single sounds like they're going in a cosmic doom direction? which could be fun.

wow amazing, i feel the exact opposite. could never get into 22, A Million because it sounded like half-finished song sketches to me, whereas i,i felt like those same sonic ideas applied to actual songs. Hey Ma has a chorus and everything!

i'm a sucker for novelty but it's also just damn good. when you hit a particularly seamless stretch of tracks it is really satisfying.
