So for some reason I have been conflating Coldplay and Pantera for years now. Like, I somehow thought Coldplay was like a Pantera side project or something.

Then I read something mocking Coldplay as "mom rock" and I was really confused and finally looked them up.

I always thought that screeching sound you hear at night was the voices of bats, but it's actually swifts. I blame the fact that I always saw a lot of bats fluttering about outside my window where I lived when I first heard it.

This is incredible. I'm wondering if there was a second level of confusion, like you were thinking of Coal Chamber or something.

I mean, metal bands always have a million spinoffs, right?

Axel Foley isn't a/the Beverly Hills cop in the motion picture Beverly Hills Cop.

Yeah but the ultimate Texan meathead metal band is unlikely to switch to one of the most popular British pop rock bands ever

Sucrose posted:

The infamous Crazy Frog song is called "Axel F" because it's a remix of the Beverly Hills Cop theme.

Everyone over 30 probably already knew this.

The USA has the concept of the 'pickup truck':


But does not have a popular concept of a 'ute', more common in Australia and New Zealand, a more compact vehicle:

Wait. "Pickup truck" isn't simply American for "ute"?

e: I'd call both those vehicles "utes"

The ute is based on a standard car chassis

Perhaps you have not heard of the El Camino?



e: also that's a Toyota, please feature Ford, Dodge or Chevrolet pickups in future references to our awful car/truck culture

Intoluene posted:

There is actually a difference and it's mostly about how the chassis is constructed. The ute is based on a standard car chassis while a pick up has a truck body with the passenger cab and tray bolted to the base.

Or the Ranchero, which is what the El Camino copied

bongwizzard posted:

Yea I have no idea. I have not listened to Pantera since highschool and have never to my knowledge heard Coldplay, nothing ever really came up to challenge my wrong idea.

Also it looks like I have also been thinking that "Coal Chamber" was loving called "Coral Chamber" intil like 5 min ago when I tried to find a video of them on youtube.

Weed something something cognitive abilities.

Damageplan was an American heavy metal band from Dallas, Texas, formed in 2003. Following the demise of their previous group Pantera, brothers Dimebag Darrell and Vinnie Paul Abbott wanted to start a new band. The pair recruited former Diesel Machine and Halford guitarist Pat Lachman on vocals, and later Bob Zilla on bass. Damageplan released their only studio album New Found Power in the United States on February 10, 2004, which debuted at number 38 on the Billboard 200, selling 44,676 copies in its first week.

While Damageplan was promoting the album at a concert on December 8, 2004, at the Alrosa Villa in Columbus, Ohio, a man named Nathan Gale climbed on stage and killed lead guitarist Darrell and three others, and wounding another seven, before being shot dead by police officer James Niggemeyer. Although no motive was found, some witnesses claimed Gale blamed the brothers for Pantera's breakup and believed that they had stolen his lyrics. The band's manager confirmed there are unreleased Damageplan recordings, although they have not surfaced, and the band has not performed since the incident. Abbott and Zilla have joined the band Hellyeah, and Lachman joined The Mercy Clinic.

Pantera did break up and some of the members did form another band called "Damageplan". They had one album out and toured. This is when Dimebag Darrel was killed.

There is a cop around here whose first name is Shadow.

Every time I see him I want to ask him if he's watching American Gods.

He's a nice guy, but then I'm white. Never seen him be rude to a minority though either.

I learned from a goon in another thread that poison dart frogs synthesize their toxin from stuff in their natural diet, so poison dart frogs raised in captivity aren't toxic at all.
