Also, that Wampler poo poo cascaded into my other FB groups, such is its awfulness (which is how I am aware of it since the Wampler group is largely poo poo that I left for that reason).

Brian Wampler is a nice and generous person but completely abdicates his standing in that small world of pedal geekery when faced with speaking out on moral and ethical problems of his group and the industry he works in.

I like the group but it has a lot of assholes lurking always waiting to get mad the second something related to social issues comes up. The moderators and Brian are wonderful people but there’s only so much you can handle. On the best days I love the group but maaaan it gets tiring.

Hi I spent 45 minutes today trying to figure out why my tone was weird with all of my pedals before realizing my chorus was on thanks for reading

I once spent an entire practice trying to fix the weird muddiness in my sound. Afterwards, I realized the tone knob on my bass was turned down.

GuItar forums are always full of very predictable demographics and as such full of very predictable bullshit.

TGPs explicit “no politics” rule is the only reason i can tolerate it and even then it still leaks throug sometimes.

rock's a list: a band formed in the 1960s nobody's given a poo poo about in over thirty years, two bands nobody's given a poo poo about in nearly twenty years, and shinedown


also great corporate synergy writing an advertorial for a band mostly getting radio play on loudwire's sponsored syndicated program

Didn’t read that past the title but Ghost is getting a lot of younger people into rock/metal as well as guitar. I can’t hate them thanks to that.

it's like a magic eye picture where if i cross my eyes and look past the literal words, they're describing a band that might interest me and that i'm about to look up on spotify, but if i just look at the words themselves all i can see is a giant ":jerkbag:"

I was legit pretty disappointed the first time I listened to a Ghost album but I'm not a 17 year old desperate for some indication I didn't miss literally every decent cool band by being born after the turn of the willennium.

I'm actually not sure I would have liked them if I had any amount of hype before listening to them but my literal introduction was a free ticket to the iron maiden show in NYC that they opened for so yeah


Which leads me to a different stupid music poo poo: which dumb prick decided to ever put music shows in basketball stadiums? "Hmm, yes, you can hear every single sneaker squeak reverberate for like 5 seconds in this son of a bitch, this is the perfect place to play music"

i just listened to the first couple songs on this new album and thought it was alright. like, i probably won't seek out more or even listen to this one again, but i can see the appeal (esp to desperate 17yos). if nothing else, the very beginning with the kids singing had me :lol:ing and getting nostalgic for the your band sucks article where dr. thorpe ragged on coheed & cambria for doing that same silly poo poo to start one of their albums

My first introduction to Ghost was years ago before they were massively huge, when I would constantly hear TRVEBLAKMETL people go on and on about this band that was "not traditional BM at all, but TOTALLY true harcore satanists and would do satanic rituals and everything and worship satan and probably sacrifice animals and practice magic and no one knows their identities because they are just that hardcore and satanic satan satan satan!!"
