Anberlin Band • Page 189

As well as the movieBlockers with John Cena.

 

No matter what your definition of buttrock is, Anberlin has no signs of it, so that's kind of weird to begin with.

 

Not even a song like "Little Tyrants"? That's the most obvious example of that vibe. Still love it though.

 

If "Little Tyrants" is butt rock, call me a kiss ass.

 

Cmon… little tyrants is pretty far removed from bands like Theory of a Deadman or Buckcherry

 

Listen, let me tell you about the nuances of Buckcherry. There are layers, like a pie.

 

Never heard of both so I got other reference points. But it reminds me of Nickeback for example. The intro with the cowbell, the beer commercial like riff, the solo and most of all, the way the "whoaaas" appear... all seems right in that wheelhouse. No shade as I like a couple early albums from the latter.

 

I dunno, I actually do listen to Nickelback (and Theory and Buckcherry) and I don't really hear the comparison.

Like, if you wanted to claim that a straight-forward rock song is all it takes, then okay, but I feel like the tones and overall vibe are very far removed from those bands.

I mean, post-grunge isn't the only genre of music that has used a cowbell or had "whoas" in the lyrics.

 

Yeah I get that but I probably don't listen to listen to the other genres that combined all those elements in the same song whereas I was big on post-grunge at times.

Idk, we all have our own reference points. I can't help but hear what I hear lol

 

what's the overlap between butt rock and divorced dad rock? because i usually conflate the two, and Anberlin is far removed from that sound

 

What bands fall under the divorced dad genre?

 

Trapt

 

Wait, is it music by divorced dads or for divorced dads? Was the singer ever married? Is he a dad??

 

Not to be confused with sad dad music which is The National

 

ehhh, I dont care enough to look.

 

Y'all are going to make me stop following this thread.

 

I was listening to Three Days Grace the other day and posted it on my Insta story and two different people replied “divorced dad rock.”

 

Cut to man belting "I Hate Everything About You" after being served his papers while crying in an empty beer can.

 

Hahaha that was indeed the song I was listening to

 

I don’t know…I love Skillet.

 

I enjoy their music but I hate that their singer can't shut the fuck up. It started with being anti-vax and being really obnxious about it, and now it's just veered into being obnoxious in general.

 

isn't he also a staunch Christian nationalist?

 

Where's he saying all this stuff? Link?

Jesus, I actually tuned out some of these articles, but now that I'm reading, he's a thousand times worse than I remembered.
