YOU ARE THE DUMBEST MEATHEAD IDIOT ON THE PLANET, STOP FUCKING POSTING

jordan buckley is an NFT kook now. hate to see it

this is an extremely odd take. JB is an artist and lots of artists stand to gain a good amount of income by adopting the new trend in digital art. if there's an audience willing to pay money for NFTs for what the artist is basically already doing then why shouldn't the artist take advantage of that?

in his post about his upcoming NFTs he even mentions that he'll have "NFTs" for people not into them aka "New Fuckin Tee shirts." he's not exactly saying that he is solely an NFT artist now and that they are strictly the future of art and you will never own any art he ever does again unless you're dialed into the blockchain or whatever.

NFTs are pretty close to dead loving last on the list of things you should be upset about or even care at all about.

cool argument? why would anyone need to "defend" an NFT unless it was because old, washed up grandpa manbabies were OFFENDED by them existing?

it's a digital art certificate of authenticity. screenshot the jpg if you want to rebel. it's not for you (or me) so move on and don't look for poo poo to be upset about.

NFTs are stupid in a similar sense to how that modern art banana taped to a wall or whatever is stupid

the difference is that only rich idiots with way too much money to blow are going to buy that dumb banana. the crypto/NFT space is 99.9% grifters convincing your average person to buy their digital pogs with the "promise" that they'll appreciate in value

NFTs and anyone touting them as anything other than grift should be mercilessly mocked, thank you for coming to my ted talk

It’s also a grift and a money laundering scheme that more often than not is actively stealing art uncredited from artists, along with the usual environmental and supply issues related to normal crypto/blockchain poo poo. Your opinion is dogshit, and anybody actively contributing to more of the crypto circus should be loving ashamed of themselves.

Let's not forget that we are on the knife edge of apocalyptic climate change and desperately need to reduce our impact on the planet like, right loving now, meanwhile crypto is drawing unprecedented amounts of energy to produce literally nothing except untraceable digital money for people who are mostly already rich as gently caress

but yes it's because we're out-of-touch luddites, not because anybody who isn't already invested in the grift understands what a loving harmful scam it is

I am also okay with JB hopping on the (very stupid) NFT bandwagon to make some extra cash. I'm sure the climate damage caused by the >50 ETIDiots who care enough to buy one won't be THAT much worse than dude spending the better part of 20 years touring the world for 35 weeks a year, so maybe let's all relaxing with the pearl clutching and just listen to this new track from Cancer Bats

for actual content: i put together a small list of releases that have dropped in q1. sadly, not a great list so far with two standout exceptions in -core stuff.

best lp is the newest vein album. best ep is the foreign hands release.

but my other two favorite albums so far include one ambient, analog synth album by a death metal band (timewave zero by blood incantation) and an electronic-pop album (rot by tennyson)

kublai khan's latest ep is a strong contender for ep of q2, and i'm really looking forward to whatever jesus piece puts out this year at some point.

I really enjoy the Kublai Khan TX EP and it's my favorite heavy music so far this year, and probably their strongest project although I really like Absolute and Nomad. The Foreign Hands release disappointed me a bit, just because I was hoping the whole project would be as strong as Separation Souvenir and IMO that was the best song on there by a lot.

I've been listening to Like Moths to Flames's "An Eye for an Eye" album, which is apparently from 2013 and god drat

God, drat.

some parts remind me of Gojira, and then it has some From First to Last singing vibes?

This entire album is loving epic. Gonna have to listen to more

Like Moths To Flames are sorta hit or miss with me, but, goddamn, when they're on, they're ON. Bury Your Pain is a top gym track. I could (and probably should) go through their discography and put together a ~20 track playlist of heaters.

I'm listening to some of their other (newer albums) and it still slaps but IDK if it does as well. Needs more listens

edit: Pure Like Porcelain EP is loving tits. OMG

The new tape from Grayscale Season is out now and, boy-howdy, it is far and away their best work yet. Hearing how much they've grown as songwriters warms my lovely little heart. I was lucky enough to get to hear demos / rough mixes as they wrote the album and, even in the early stages, the improvement over their older stuff (which I still have a lot of love for) has had me stoked to share it with the thread for quite awhile now.

I know that I shill for them a ton ITT, but it's thanks to all you lunkheads that I get to call them friends (minus the new drummer, who I haven't met yet), so thank y'all. I don't remember who it was that first posted about Art Far Away, Adam(the bassist/backing vocalist from GS)'s original band, but I owe you and your bad tastes in music a huge debt of gratitude!

New track from Varials; their first to feature their former lead guitarist / backing vocalist taking over as fulltime frontman.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibsAaJMlt-M

I only started listening to them much a few months ago and have been diggin' them as gym tunes, but didn't realize until just a few days back that they'd changed vocalists recently. That lead me to learn that their previous vocalist has a new gig, Erase Them, going and they just dropped an EP last month
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Op9CkQKJ4zc

It sounds more Varials-y than the new one from Actually Varials, but I think I like the "new sound" more. Either way, I'mma lift to all of the above this weekend.
