They have to be right in the middle of the Worst and Most Successful pop punk Venn diagram circles, right? I can’t think of another band who was as bad as them who was also as big.

Last album of theirs I really liked was Neighborhoods, which was also the last album with Tom. Everything after (including this new single) is not for me.

It's the 25th anniversary of Kylie Minogue's Impossible Princess https://thevinylfactory.com/features/impossible-princesse-kylie-minogue-elles/ An ahead of the curve move of posters heading into indie territory (in this case lots of trip-hop) but in the 90s the reaction was scathing. Time has been very very kind. Lid fucked around with this message at 19:23 on Oct 14, 2022 |

"Weezer status" is my personal shorthand for whenever you realize a band or show has sucked for way longer than it's ever been good.

I think weezer and the simpsons are tied for quality years if you kick out simpsons season 1. Weezer wins if you consider that they toured off Maladroit for a year after it came out.

I was surprised at how much I liked last year's Van Weezer, though I haven't checked out any of those Seasons EPs yet.

I'm a pretty big fan of some of the music blink did even with Skiba, plus Mark had some stuff I liked with Simple Creatures and the last Angels and Airwaves album had one song I really, really liked. It's definitely poppy, but considering the thread were in, that's not a bad thing. Generally, I look forward to more music from all of them because although they release stuff I don't care for pretty often, they occasionally have something that's like its made just for my taste. Stuff I liked: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDIR9gkAv88 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lkmgS7BfuQ (The official music video for this one was either a troll or three adults desparately trying to reach the fortnite audience, depending on what you choose to believe, but disconnected from that, I really like the pre-chorus into the chorus) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKbCpQVZ-Ts https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-v640PiMt_o https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H13WPJFmY1o

Her cover of good 4 u was so good, this was just a very mid interpretation Not mid: her new album, which is exactly what I wanted; equal parts horny and emotional loaded with great beats

Had no idea this was coming out but Lolo Zouai released a new album. I got to see Lolo open for Dua Lipa and she was incredible.

I don't think I've ever listened to a vinyl record. I grew up when cassettes were still a thing but even my grandmother had no problem listening to Frankie on newer hardware. It's not like anyone is bringing back cassettes for limited editions. But I'm seeing so many things I like lately coming out with special Vinyl versions. From Avril to a fuckin' video game I adore called Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne. it's making me wonder if I should buy a record player or something.

Hot take - I don't like vinyl because I don't want to have to babysit the music. I want to just be able to have music playing for hours.

Its nice when you're reading to be forced to take short breaks. Besides it's an excuse to put on one of the best albums of all time, I, Robot by Alan Parsons Project.

If you enjoy having a physical copy of music then vinyl is great, because it's bigger and prettier than a CD, and CDs are no longer the highest lossless digital quality available anyway. (Not that everyone will actually take advantage of that.) So vinyl + a digital download is the best of both worlds, though admittedly a bit less affordable. (Also it seems to no longer be standard to always provide a digital download card with vinyl, which sucks.)

I’ve been buying records for over a decade at this point, it’s nice to listen to and a good way to support artists you like by buying their music instead of just streaming it. The only frustrating thing is that at the moment there are a lot more people making music than there are pressing records so even some really huge albums you have to wait a while to get physically. I was shocked that Silk Sonic’s album wasn’t available immediately on vinyl given how much it sounds like it should be.

Cassettes truly have no advantage over CDs. Whereas at least a fresh vinyl, if it's done properly, can be a pretty great-sounding analog presentation and may have better mastering and whatnot. If a cassette hits someone's nostalgia buttons I'm not gonna knock them for it, but I just hope nobody's kidding themselves. It's strictly merch.

And I agree with this that it's unfathomable why anybody would bother. My original post was musing about maybe there's some value to vinyl records besides being a collector but I can't say since I've never heard one. But I have heard cassettes and they are a relic for a reason. NikkolasKing fucked around with this message at 18:28 on Oct 18, 2022 |
