I’m always surprised and a little jealous when I find out that someone has good taste in music because their parents have good taste in music and not just because they were a weird little freak with internet access in highschool

The best DIY bands these days are seeing forward mobility and touring with nationally recognized acts smh. Whatever happened to releasing one album, playing a blowout gig at the biggest VFW in your town, breaking up, and dying a legend?

If Hum can take a 22 year hiatus and still be the most talked about band in 2020, your band should be cool to take a year off from touring lol

My biggest one is that bands should have more influences than just other popular, contemporary indie rock bands. Like if all you listen to is twinkle emo bands you’re gonna shlep out a record that sounds exactly like everything else I’ve ever heard in the past fifteen years

I’m the person that I am today bc I was able attend house shows when I young teen. I’m fortunate enough that the venue I was going to at that time was edge and operated by genuinely kind hearted people and though I wouldn’t necessarily lobby for young kids to check out 1/

in the last 3 years, our band has spent $0 on PR, $0 on a booking agent, and we have always printed our own merch. basically what i’m saying is that you can do whatever you want and flourish at it as long as you have the drive and work with ppl who push you to do work harder

Slipknot should be heralded as one of the best, most innovative metal acts of the early 2000s. Sadly, to many, they are simply Funny Costume Band. Tragic.

Theres no point in trying to chase popular trends in music; by the time you’ve written recorded and released a song that emulates whatever X popular band is doing, that style is almost certainly already dead in the water. just be yourself and hope that it resonates w others
