Music Forum General Chat Thread (I) [ARCHIVED] • Page 19

It was discussed a bunch when it happened—the article is two years old.

 

Lol oh wow, I didn't even see the date. Someone shared it on my fb feed so I thought it was recently. Durp

 

I'm thinking of covering three songs from each of these albums for every month of 2017. Which season/month would you associate with each album?

Death Cab for Cutie - Narrow Stairs
Dashboard Confessional - Places You Have Come to Fear the Most
Jimmy Eat World - Bleed American
Something Corporate - Leaving Through the Window
The Starting Line - Say It Like You Mean It
Paramore - Riot
Yellowcard - Ocean Avenue
Fall Out Boy - From Under The Cork Tree
Saves the Day - Through Being Cool
Tegan and Sara - Sainthood
The Early November - Room's Too Cold
Brand New - Deja Entendu

That's the order I have so far, starting with Death Cab in January. I think I have summer/fall down, not so sure about winter/spring.

 

why has the entire first page of the music forum been threads for old or shitty bands the last week

 

One look at the first page says you're wrong so maybe you're just cynical

 

Uhhh what the fuck happened to what.cd??

 

I actually was wondering the same the last few days, finally checked their twitter and seen they shut down and said they would not be likely returning in their current format..... RIP

 

Yeah, I heard. I'm gutted. I'm optimistic something will rise up to replace it, but up until now it was probably the single most comprehensive collection of music in history...

 

I was telling my girl the same when it went down. It had the best collection of music across all spectrums I've ever seen to the point I'd use what.cd (and soulseek) for barometers if something is even able to be found online. Welp here's hoping they eventually come back or like you said something will rise up to replace it.

Guess my Rutracker account is gunna be getting super flexed lmao.

 

I've been thinking and the conclusion I've come to is that if you crossed "Tom Vek" with "Imagine Dragons" the end result would be "Bastille"?!

 

Not quite sure what thread to put this in but I was curious.

Who this year would you say released the best album of their careers? Some easy ones off the top of my head would be The 1975 and Frank Ocean.

 

Touché Amoré and Joyce Manor

 

The 1975
Touche Amore
Every Time I Die
O'Brother
Balance And Composure

 

The 1975, Joyce Manor, Touché Amore, Balance and Composure, From Indian Lakes

 

Swain (formerly This Routine Is Hell) with "The Long Dark Blue" imo

 

something i was thinking about these past couple of days. do you folks ever initially listen to a song, hear a lyric and really enjoy it, only to find out the actual lyric is something else?

the new code orange song when i originally heard it, i thought it was 'the death of civilian mentality' when really it's 'bully mentality,' and when ETID put out underwater bimbos i thought it was 'when the ire sharpens the iron.' i think in most cases i just stick with the words i heard, although sometimes the real one is a better (the matches rhinovirus originally thought 'i think i'm decomposing' is 'i'm de-de-de-decomposing')

curious if anyone does the same or changes it in their head when they find the real lyrics

 

Happy Hanukkah thread

 

Been listening to a lot of Kinks lately. Such a great band. How do they not get talked about more?

 

Currently listening to Joyce Manor's entire discography while changing my guitar strings and rearranging my pedal board. Great way to spend an afternoon

 

British Invasion was just so stacked, had them the Stones, the Beatles and The Who, I guess they get lost in the shuffle

 

the kinks are kinky :)

 

I can't exactly blame people for losing them in the time. They are the weakest of the four. But damn it's been so long now haha.

 

For the last month or so, Moose Blood has been getting consistent play on Sirus' Alt Nation which is slightly surprising. I didn't see them getting radio play but it's cool. Just a few minutes ago, I forget which radio host it was but they just mentioned Absolute Punk.

 

My friend just said that he heard them on one of the big terrestrial radio stations in Chicago tonight. Very cool for them.

 

There's a genre that I just don't understand. It would fit into the R&B/hip-hop genre but it's somewhat "lo-fi." My question is if anyone here listened to this type of stuff. I do, but not too much.

Here are some of the artists.

-Blackbear
-Mike Posner
-Kyle Lucas
