Are they the only good metalcore band? It seems to me like everything else in the whole genre is just edgy emo teens with shitty haircuts and whiny voices.
check out Botch and Code Orange
Converge is indeed dope though
>converge is le only good mealcore :^)
Converge is garbage and so is every other single metalcore band

Don't you have a book report to write?
Jim Morrison has such a depressing boring voice. All of there songs sound downbeat and slow. Anyone else not able to get into them?
nah you're right they're pretty bad
instrumentally they're okay but Morrison is just too much of a douchenozzle and also boring
>>63275494
Glad I'm not the only one that find them highly overrated. If it wasn't for Jim Morrison's death, would they have gone down as 'less iconic'?
People have hated on the Doors since the 80s...they're everyone's favourite sacred cow to kick.
anyone have a video of a musician explaining what their songwriting process is like? I consider myself a musician. I have been playing musical instruments my whole life on and off. I'm not really great at playing them, but my teacher tells me I have enough skill to be able to make my own stuff. What my problem is though, I always come up with like one riff or one arpeggio, but then I can never seem to be able to put together these fragments of a song together in my DAW. I don't use electronic instruments, all my instruments are guitar, bass and drums. I would really...

What were there 'folk rock' and 'hard rock albums'? I'm not a Beatles fag so I actually do not know. Top of my head I can't think of any folky or really heavy Beatles songs.
>>63275359
Is this a cringe thread?
HELTER SKELTER
>>63275359
wtf
For Sale, Help and Rubber Soul are folky tho, just in case you're being legit

Bruce Springsteen
new version of famous just put on with different (better) mixing and a new line
did he ever get around to fixing wolves? i liked both versions to be fair but never heard anything about it and haven't listened to the album in like 3 weeks
>>63274586
not as good imo
>>63274586
>>63274752
Famous was a trash song anyway.
This guy is so fucking impressive. I never thought he would top GkMC, and I don't think he has, yet he manages to reinvent himself with stuff like TPAB and UU. The lyrics, production and general wordflow/musicianship is better than everything else at this point.
I'm pretty psyched to be alive along with Kendrick.
>>63274476
tpab and uu are boring as fuck
>>63274476
Same. I don't think anyone doubts his talent as the most skilled MC of the '10s.
>>63274476
kendrick is almost objectively the best rapper in the game right now which means that no matter how much he deserves praise people will always find him overrated. its the same shit that happens with groups like radiohead and the beach boys
More like this please

These types of comps may be closer in terms of sound, but pic related is a very essential release in terms of early 60s Pacific NW garage, and literally close to The Sonics in the same way Soundgarden was close to Nirvana
So I'm new to this kind of music and this was amazing but is there any similar dance/disco/whatever the genre album that comes close to this ?
I tried Justice, LCD soundsystem, Crystal Castles, DJ Shadow but didn't like them. Also listened to some last.fm and rym recommendations but nothing was as good as this.

I hate Death Grips. I immediately lose respect for anyone who listens to them, and especially those who praise them. Here's why:
Name 20 successful people that listen to them. Pop basically runs the show when it comes to music. This includes artists like Kanye West, Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Justin Bieber, Zayn Malik, Adele, Katy Perry, Beyonce et al. Pop has artists making significant contributions to the entire music industry.
Death Grips on the other hand pulls most of the heavy weight packaging from teenage angst with each album. They then lay basic synths and a joke of a rapper over it. It generally lags behind pop by a mile or two in inventiveness. I never hear their music in shops or mentioned by anyone over the age of 25.
So tell me again, how exactly do Death Grips innovate? They even struggle to release a new theme with each release, and artwork is about the only original thing with Death Grips.
Yes, Death Grips is stable because they are standing on the shoulders of socially awkward teenagers. Most of the hard work is hashed out before they ever start making "music". This is fine, and what music is all about, but I prefer to be in with the leaders rather than the followers.
What really irks me and what has really brewed my hatred are Death Grips fans. They seem to think Death Grips is responsible for all that is good in the music world. I have just proven how false this is. In my experience, Death Grips fans (virgins, teenagers, and manchildren) are much less helpful than the alternative.
If you want nice pop, listen to Bruno Mars or Taylor Swift. If you like rock, Tame Impala. If you prefer, Drake or Kendrick Lamar. But please, don't feed the idiot magnet that is Death Grips!

Obviously not because they're highly rated

Swans are a gateway band of the worst kind. They're a bad group. a clusterfuck of shitty lyrics and repetitive song structures that isn't very well done by any aspect, but which attempts to compensate for its weaknesses by adding in excessive edginess and DARKNESS. The normal anon can see this as the shit it is, and may enjoy it, hate it or be indifferent to it, but all the while recognizing that the music itself, regardless of their opinion, is plain bad.
However, these very aspects that try to smear over the shit of its core make it a breeding ground for aspie,...

I was all in for this thread until I saw that you wanted to discuss Kings of Leon. Holy shit, fuck that band, and fuck you too OP.
The lingering thoughts of suicidal suicidal ideation are always there.
Any good albums for this feel?
y don you jst kill youself if u wnt you pussy
>>63273799
don't do it op
listen to this, one of the most bittersweet and uniquely cathartic albums made after one of the band members and primary lyricist disappeared/commited suicide.
