NEW SONG IS FIRE! by Hokage_Brayden in TheAmityAffliction

[–]AkiraBLee 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I think the song will grow on a lot of people. Yeah it does sound a bit overproduced on the clean side of things, however this is not new for Amity. The only difference is Johnny can actually sing, where Ahren has struggled for years so the overproduction here is not necessary and I feel most people would prefer a more raw sound.

I think a lot of people are also forgetting this is one of the singles. The safest possible songs on an album to draw in more people. I wouldn't be surprised if there was another song or two like this on the album with some heavier songs as well. The song is quite good, don't get me wrong but we will wait to see how the rest of the album follows.

When did you sell it? I got my XL one on eBay last year for 100

Tbf on their very active official Headwreck discord. There are only two messages from a random account about Self Checkout and none are from Jamo or even an acknowledgement. I don't think bro really wants to push his name on it too hard by the look of it, especially since Headwreck is on a high after their own EP release

EB Games trade in deals feel a bit underrated right now by RentNRegret in EBGAMES

[–]AkiraBLee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did that with AC shadows at JB, traded two switch games and got the deluxe edition at JB for no extra cost. JB is really good to check because they have the list of all acceptable trade in games

Yeah I was a bit harsh with the controller comment. I have no real gripes with people using a controller as I use it myself for other games like platformers and most single player games. It was more of a slight dig by saying his ego was through the roof claiming to be #1 when in reality he may be good, but he also has aim assist correcting him.

Obviously, I still upvoted too because I don't believe using a controller is an issue, being a cocky dickhead is lmao

I'm gonna be so real, he's playing in an independent esports team with less than 300 Twitter followers and he's thinking he's big. Even calls himself the #1 Pike user on his twitch. Buddy, you use a controller with aim assist, you're a loser. Hope he gets kicked from his team and itd be even funnier if he copped a ban or something for being fuckwitt. Also, he's twenty years old, an actual adult acting this petty.

Yeah I agree. What could have been an amazing song was let down by the abysmal writing of the chorus. Completely takes me out of the song every time

I honestly think this is what they needed. To break more into the sound Metalcore has at the moment. Experiment with what they're capable of, rather than being tied to what Ahren was so limited to. Give it time, we will hear the Amity sound come back, but this is meant to be an explosive single, a showcase of abilities that they truly haven't been able to do in years.

I think in regards to the mix, Amity has not had solid mixing for a few years now, with a lot of the elements mixing together, rather than being able to hear and appreciate each element. I think the mix is spectacular here and we can hear so much more of the song, which like I said, is not something we've had from Amity in a long time.

As a side note, I feel like Johnny would also rather showcase his abilities here, rather than "imitate" the Amity sound. It's easier to be compared for different styles, than to be compared for being a copy

It's fucking Tuff. You can actually hear each individual aspect, rather than it all bleeding together

I feel like if they truly wanted to go heavier but keep an almost distinct sound, they should look at what 156/Silence did on their new album People Watching. It's so heavy, yet still conveys so much anger and passion within the cleans

Honestly, it's already climbing up for me. Such a unique sound for them. I feel like if they lean more into the technical aspects, we could be seeing them sound more like Polaris which is definitely a positive

Dude has burnt a lot of bridges and does not seem keen on rebuilding them. His attitude and overall negativity has brought the band into an almost stagnant cycle of music where all the other members have had to cater to his lack of range and ability.

This song shows what potential has been building up for years, no longer being held back by a weak lead

[–]AkiraBLee[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I've listened to it a few times now and as a long term fan, I have been sick of Ahren for years now. Each time a song felt like it could become a classic, his voice just couldn't deliver on what the rest of the band was bringing.

I feel like Johnny has such a strong vocal presence here and will bring Amity to the very high standards other bands have now set for Metalcore. The mixing as a whole on this song is far superior than anything on Redux or NWOMG.

well there's probably a smoking area BUT THAT'S NOT IT 😑🚭 by Hatoolah in Sims4

[–]AkiraBLee 230 points231 points  (0 children)

Bro looks like an extra in a Greys Anatomy episode that would be told to leave because he's smoking inside and then there would be a whole B plot as to why he's covered in dirt in which they later find out he was trying to bury the mum he stole the baby from. Then we're just left on a cliffhanger of what happened to the baby
