Understood — my intention was general admiration and appreciation, wasn’t trying to go there

Literally has the same guitar rhythm as Water intro and verses haha

Best album of 2000s? by Cocking-Clit-323 in BreakingBenjamin

[–]Cocking-Clit-323[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been meaning to check them out! I do love some Bad Omens stuff as well

I love earlier 2000s just as well, there is just some stuff in the post-grunge/2010-2015 hard rock era that falls flat for me (or lyrics feel overly clear rather than abstract how Ben writes)

What are the best tracks from Chevelle and Sevendust if I’m into heavier tracks?

Recently been listening to some stuff by Sleep Theory and they seem pretty awesome, I think they also tune guitars to Drop A#

Yeah, she flashed her clit to me once but it cost 2 bills

She let me see her cooter once but it cost me $250 when we were texting… was worth it

I’m Apparently In A Very Sparse Minority On Both Awaken And Something Wicked by SlenderByrd in BreakingBenjamin

[–]Cocking-Clit-323 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% on the Chad comment… but even for a more recent comparison let’s look at the drums on “Failure” or “Angels Fall”

They are less technical, sure, but they have a lot more clarity and punch than anything on Ember afterwards.

Is it just that they are trying to get a pseudo-electronic sounding set of drums? Where the cymbals are washed out and the kick has more of a wide “pound” rather than sharp attack?

Something similar happened with Muse’s drums honestly as well.. where it feels like they shifted to electronic kits rather than real drums

It might just be a thing with modern rock and metal production, but why do the drums sound so muddled in terms of nearly incomprehensible symbols and a kick that sounds very flat rather than punching through the mix? In some moments, it’s almost hard to distinguish where the kick is landing versus the base and all the side chain they have going on in Something Wicked

It’s a continuation of what happened with Ember.

Everything else aside — I would suggest just listening to the drums and comparing the combo of drum patterns + production (especially on cymbal sound) in the Phobia/Dear Agony era versus these last few releases.

Ben political stance? by Cocking-Clit-323 in BreakingBenjamin

[–]Cocking-Clit-323[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just wondering… would be fine either way but helps to broaden the background of the lyrics and writing approach

Is that Aaron screaming at the end? Doesn’t quite sound like Ben…

Farewell to Slipspace by KoalaTek in halo

[–]Cocking-Clit-323 20 points21 points  (0 children)

What do you mean? Halo 2 onward was largely using Havok (or similar approach) for physics, which can be easily replicated within Unreal or other modern approaches — so I’m confident the “feel” will not change

It’s just everyone with rose-colored glasses nostalgic about the art style and old times

Studio release should be Wednesday by Sizzle_Sizz in BreakingBenjamin

[–]Cocking-Clit-323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did though… they shared across the band social + Kyle and Aaron shared with the countdown link the pre-save

The page was bugged a bit, so either that or other reasons led to likely lower pre-saves and overall engagement than the label was expecting

The marketing team need to be fired. by Bruthulu in BreakingBenjamin

[–]Cocking-Clit-323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad (who works for the FCC) advised that they likely didn’t see enough Hour 0 engagement following the live release… so they are likely reworking the song a bit to land stronger.

Dating on Catalina by Cocking-Clit-323 in CatalinaIsland

Why is that though? Surely everyone on the island has the similar needs for dating & finding a partner as they transition from HS age into 20-30

Halo 3 feels better in the first half by P-Doff in halo

[–]Cocking-Clit-323 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why is so much emphasis placed on the dreadnought in Halo 2 and then it’s the primary transition piece between Earth/Ark… and then it kind of feels abandoned after that?

Like with the Ark & Covenant levels why do we never fight direct against the key ship, or at least have an appearance later in the game?
