One of the more common ones is when they drastically change their sound, and it didn’t work. Either they either aren’t good at writing songs in that genre, or the musicianship is fine, but the singer is terrible at that genre. Other times they might have wrote a couple good songs, but they...

A lot of it is the sound impurities when it comes to using analog formats, so people think it adds character, as opposed to the clean “sterile” sound of digital.

Sometimes I look them up myself if it’s old. I usually don’t tell people spoilers unless they want it. I also think some people are too sensitive to spoilers. I don’t personally consider telling someone the premise or an obvious plot point happened finally as a spoiler. With the latter, most of...

That doesn't mean there isn't new music

Enough to make the song work.

New music sucks, old music is better

I was a server admin for several years, and now I do cybersecurity.

I own Boxcar Racer on vinyl

Sounds like you hate streaming more than digital. If you rip a CD or download MP3’s, those don’t require the internet or rely on a service.

Tbh, CD’s are technically digital too. The sound is still generated from 1’s and 0’s

Honestly, outside of country music, you don’t hear a lot about bands/artists coming out of Nashville, or albums being recorded there. Then there’s the metric ton of bar cover bands who want to play the same generic 80’s classic rock songs. I lived there for 4 years, and it isn’t this Mecca of...

I think you missed my point where you’re going to have trouble finding like minded musicians to play with.

I did 20 years ago, haven’t since

Finding out which release of an album sounds the best is a rabbit hole, and even then, you need really nice gear to hear it. That’s yet another rabbit hole. Even then, you’d be surprised to find out that most of the time, it’s not as drastic as audiophiles claim. There’s a ton of snake oil in...

It’s almost entirely people just gatekeeping. Kind of ironic for the rebellious genre to have a community forcing people to conform to their rules.

I’ve been playing bass and guitar for 20 years. I like to think I’m good at singing, and taught myself piano during the lockdowns.

I like Nu Metal and Alternative Metal. Then there’s the punk bands that border into metal territory. Stuff like Tool, Deftones, Glassjaw, Helmet, and Hum.

I just record cover songs for fun. Basically one man band here.

I don’t find it necessary anymore with the internet existing. There’s also like 8 billion bar bands in Nashville, so the competition there is really high. Also, a lot of the famous studios aren’t even in those locations, so there isn’t much incentive for that either. There are also different...

I personally don’t care about this stuff. Just saying how the community works.
