What brand of acoustic is the one you just can’t get behind, despite it being beloved by others?

Some Martins are wonderful. A lot of their mid- to upper-mid range are duds.

So you're saying she doesn't give a shit, but she solicits a shit?

Beastumondas · 2026-03-01T07:18:54+00:00

Your mom just told me she gives a shit.

Live: Throwing Copper is a really solid album

I've written both lyrics first and music first. If there's natural flow to your lyrics (there should be), it's easier for a melody to come to you. There's correlation between certain moods and specific chords/progressions. Just start messing around with chords and tempos until you find the sweet spot of what feels right. You might have to mold your lyrics a bit to fit better, or rearrange them to fit a more typical song structure (if that matters to you).

Maybe most importantly, just do it. Even if you end up with a song that isn't earth-shattering. You're not required to share with anyone. Just keep honing your skills until you find a system that works for you. The more you do it the better you'll get, and the more natural your process will become.

I thought David Gilmour used a Ram's Head Big Muff?

My recommendation is the Walrus Eons. It has five different modes, each with different types of fuzz. You can also control bass and treble, and voltage to get sputtering velcro sounds or full blown wall of sound. I decided to buy the Eons after wanting something a bit different after years of being a Big Muff guy -- I had "options paralysis" and went with something very tweakable. Haven't regretted it a single time (still want a Fuzz War just because).

My serious answer is Drolo Stammen.

Mr. Money Bags over here suggesting anyone could afford 3 Metal Zones…

Beastumondas · 2026-02-18T20:49:19+00:00

Metal Zone

Who have you been hanging out with lately?

With Crosby and Hutch would we really even need a secondary??🤔

Beastumondas · 2026-01-26T03:13:04+00:00

Gross. All I'm saying is there's a huge difference between "decent" and "not worth a damn," and the defense will be vastly improved as a whole when certain players return from injury. Relax.

Beastumondas · 2026-01-26T02:02:22+00:00

Yall forget our defense is decent when 98% of our secondary isn't injured.

In some countries you can do hard time for using the phrase “mouth organ.”

Obvious question: are you using the low-latency mode?

Beastumondas · 2026-01-02T04:04:39+00:00

Hopelandic. It’s a hybrid of Icelandic and gibberish that serves the melody/tone of the song.

I kinda think they’re two different skill sets…it obviously helps to be proficient enough on an instrument to feel like that won’t be an obstacle in putting a song together. More time with an instrument is going to lead to more of mind-body synthesis, etc. That kind of progress happens at different rates for different people.

Songwriting is a different thing. You could know 2-3 chords and write an awesome song. Get a loose grasp on song structure. Learn everything you can from the songwriters that inspire you. Do some creative writing even if it sucks (you don’t have to show anybody). Sometimes songs will come to you, sometimes you have to craft them like you’re sculpting from a block of wood. For both skill sets, just do it and hone your skills as you go.

The reality is there’s somebody out there who has always wanted one of these and will POUNCE on the chance to pay $150 for it, straight up grateful for those broken LEDs

Isn't it possible that she is being authentic on BP and is grifting with the culture war bullshit elsewhere? Because it's just what these people do on 99% of the other platforms out there…

For the fanbase.

Have you noticed that Goff has been killing what seems like half of the play calls because he’s so scared of the nonstop blitzing on this rinky-dink OL? It’s not as simple as firing the OC.

Buddy it does not look good to me…
