- This sums up today's music, not just rap/R&B
Wow, that review reads like the reviewer has a vendetta against them. I may hate GVF's music but there are people that like them and that's cool.- This sums up today's music, not just rap/R&B
The link in the OP was deleted. I'm curious what exactly it said. I've just accepted that rock music won't be popular. I just looked at the top of the charts and it's dominated by country, pop, rap, and spanish language music. But the rock music that's out there right now is outstanding IMO. Certain trends in current rock music have made it better IMO. Specifically: - More breakdowns and fewer guitar solos. As much as I love listening to and playing guitar, a breakdown is way more enjoyable and engaging than a guitar solo. During a concert, even the best extended guitar solo is likely to put everyone to sleep *except guitarists) while a kickass breakdown gets everyone amped up - The popularity of 7 and 8 string guitars, especially in heavy music, gives a drive and power to riffs that I feel was missing before - Is it just me, or are drummers nowadays insanely talented? Maybe they always have been and they just play differently now. The other day I heard Spiritbox and Sleep Token back-to-back and I noted how sick the drumming was. And I'm in the minority but I can't stand Greta Van Fleet.- Post a pic that makes you lol

I have zero interest in Barbie but I love Greta Gerwig. We might go see it just for her.- What are you listening to right now?
I don't know what genre this is. Math rock? Shoegaze? I like it. And some nice variety in vocals from Invent Animate, not just straight up screaming.- Guitar Players - Who's the best?
My deadhead friend dragged me to a Dead show with Herring on guitar and Joan Osborne on vocals. Not my type of music but Herring was outstanding. I've only ever seen Trey on youtube and to my ears he's nowhere near Herring. Maybe Trey is better for that type of music which as I said is not my thing.- Shall we talk about heavy music?
I'm late to Sleep Token. I haven't loved everything they've done, but this I love. I hope they steer more in this direction.- Guitar Players - Who's the best?
Interesting list but not terrible. I will say this, a lot awesome guitar players make terrible music. There's all sorts of torture I would endure before being forced to listen to Dream Theater. Even EJ's music I have to be in a certain mood for. I think Dime is one of the few shredders whose music I like.- Concerts you are attending
I'm thinking about going to see BMTH. But they're touring with Fall Out Boy, who I'm not all that crazy about.- Buying a bicycle
Nope. Straight up fixed gear. I'm hoping knees hold up. On my first ride I was granny pedaling down any negative incline. It was terrifying yet fun at the same time.- Buying a bicycle
My wife made a remark about me getting fat, so I decided to buy a bike. To hold my interest I decided to get a fixed gear. Took it for a spin yesterday and it was awesome. As a side effect of riding a fixie I all of a sudden want to buy a beret, grow a handlebar mustache, and only listen to obscure Albanian rap metal.- Hood fights and other hood shenanigans
Dammit Hodor. You had one job. https://twitter.com/MuhSocioFactors/status/1654528534340042766?t=9BM0qS-pNRkEXCn8YIu6BA&s=09- UC Davis serial stabber arrested
Actually, the second victim was a graduating senior. And the first victim, the homeless guy, wasn't a random vagrant. He was well known around campus as "Compassion Guy". He had a bench in the park and would talk to students about compassion.- This Guy Got Knocked The Fuckkkkk Out
He's got dynamite in his hands, the kind of power that only comes from making hundreds of thousands of tacos.- UC Davis serial stabber arrested
*Allegedly* I've been kind of a nervous wreck because my daughter's a student there. Seems like the suspect failed out of school and then started killing people. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna82499- 2021 UFC/MMA thread
Does Francis have CTE? What the hell is he thinking? https://www.mmamania.com/platform/amp/2023/5/2/23708921/one-championship-claims-to-have-offered-francis-ngannou-20-million-guaranteed- Surly Boxing Thread
Even without the rehydration clause Tank would be favored. With it, hard to pick Garcia.- This Guy Got Knocked The Fuckkkkk Out
Umm...sorry. Dude has heart. No chin, but heart.- 2021 UFC/MMA thread
Confirmation- John Wick 4
Interesting video here. According to the John Wick producer, when they screened the first movie to studio execs they hated it. One Fox exec hated it so much that he got up and left in the middle. How can anyone hate John Wick 1? And considering some of the total crap that they put out, I wonder what criteria they were using.- Hood fights and other hood shenanigans
So much to talk about with this fight. Is that dude wearing a bra? He actually tries to tap out. In a street fight! Never seen that before. @Patricio Swayze or anyone else who has trained grappling, I'm sure you can see the obvious mistake here. That guy must not care about his ankles.- John Wick 4
The High Table runs some of the highest tech hotels I've ever seen, yet uses manual typewriters, dot matrix computer terminals, and '50s era phone switchboards. It's visually interesting but kind of funny and really nonsensical.- Hood fights and other hood shenanigans
(not quite a hood fight but seems apropos) The celebration at the end - This sums up today's music, not just rap/R&B
