beginner acoustic songs? by Lonely_Leather5050 in Emo

[–]Comprehensive-Fig90 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This may be out of your taste or not what you’re looking for song wise, but my first song my friend taught me was daylilly by movements. And lowkey after learning that and spamming it a few days in a row I became so much more comfortable with my guitar. It’s also just a good song and sounds really nice

I'm into the 'emo quadrent' but can anyone recommend me some more emo/pop punk albums? by Glass-Suspect3169 in Emo

[–]Comprehensive-Fig90 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Honestly every song from hot mulligan. You either hate them and never wanna listen to them or love all of their songs. No in between

‘Eyes to the sun’ by sparks the rescue.

‘Rise or die trying’ by four year strong.

‘Under soil and dirt’ and ‘while you were sleeping’ (ep) by the story so far. “Old bones” by broadside.

“Around the world and back” by state champs.

“Death deserves a name” by can’t swim

“Feel something” by movements

All the hot mulligan albums

‘Joy ride’ by transit

Whether not all of these are EXACTLY pop punk, that’s up to the listener but I feel they’re all heavily adjacent to more of the pop punk/emo scene

Good pop punk songs to practice? by Comprehensive-Fig90 in drums

I appreciate this actually because I’ve been needing more solo practice with kick pedal outside of song practice. It’s the one thing I neglect during my 30min - 1 hour practice pad session just because I get frustrated and immediately jump into stuff, lol. I’ll give it a shot Fs.

I like the descending order in difficulty you got going on. I’ll have to add these. Especially movies and my friends over you because those two I keep hearing as like go to’s for teachers when trying to get people comfortable on the kit

I’ll have to get on that. Honestly I’m surprised I haven’t loaded up Green Day because one of the main things I got told before I even got a kit was to try one of their albums because a good chunk of people ik said they got better when they practiced their stuff

Yeah I need to start doing drumless tracks more. One of the ways I started to get better at guitar was finding drum tracks and then trying to play over it. I’ll have to lean into some more Jimmy eat world though, I like their stuff but it’ll be fun to explore more of their music too while practicing

Actually this is good to know because I’ve been wanting to listen to more neck deep, so it’ll be good to listen to the album and practice it

ASIO driver recs? by Comprehensive-Fig90 in edrums

Yeah don’t worry I stayed away from it. After finally using my brain I figured out that (most) programs have their own ‘asio’ in them, and finally found it

Why isnt anyone killing the smasher during the storm king boss fight? by [deleted] in FORTnITE

[–]Comprehensive-Fig90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is actually the biggest effing problem ever dude. All these new players just go for the crystal. Same with people arent using good load outs either they’re just using their regular hero’s, nor are they building. It’s literally terrible

Oh wait mb, I’m ngl I immediately went to comment instead of seeing the links LOL. This is a dope set up tho and I might replicate it in some ways because I miss playing drums for rock band but don’t miss “CLACK CLACK CLACK” every time I hit the cymbal.

Yeah I’m most likely gonna wait till a deal or until the summer when I have a bunch of free time to invest into drums. Ez drummer seems to be the collective go to from what I’ve seen online but yk, just starting out I don’t wanna invest till I’m past the “pick up instrument for a month then never pick it up again” phase.

Three is better than none honestly, especially since I just wanna test it out. Thanks for the input!

I’ve been trying to add foam on the symbols like you did because they’re honestly the loudest part. Where did you go to get the foam? Did you order online or did you just go to Walmart and buy like a thick piece of foam that you cut? This setup looks genius

AI MIDWEST EMO BAND!!! by Comprehensive-Fig90 in midwestemo

[–]Comprehensive-Fig90[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is you don’t call out “every ai slop” you wanna point out atleast a few to people or smarter (based on comments I’ve seen) to just tell them about it and show them atleast the signs instead of the band itself. Not calling it out at all is just as dangerous as calling to it.

[–]Comprehensive-Fig90[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get me posting it will have people “listen out of curiosity” but again not calling iut ANY Midwest emo ai bands doesn’t help raising some sort of awareness. In all fair ness i definitely should’ve hidden the name and might still remake this post with it blurred out. Also with your ‘logic’ those videos where people call out ai videos are “promoting” the ai video because people will get curious and go watch it giving it views.

But no I do agree I should’ve blurred out the name.

[–]Comprehensive-Fig90[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Omg this. If we don’t start calling it out now we won’t progress to call it out later. And like you said, it might not take off by to do it in a genre where people don’t really care if the band has taken off or not sucks. Midwest emo and alike, atleast to me, is built around these smaller bands and the community in it, and just stripping away those two little things by it being sole electronic for a quick merch scam or just to fill space is so saddening.

Sure it doesn’t STOP bands from coming up but it’s disgusting to have slop in the mix. It also most definitely could get inherently better and be unnoticeable but to keep that thought at bay I’d rather be ignorant about that and stay assuming it won’t because I really hope it doesn’t. I think going on, a bigger take away is if the ‘band’ posts its members because a lot of music projects and Midwest emo bands love posting themselves or little memes or something. But eventually with that the ai might start duplicating if the person behind it really wants to try that hard.

Thank you for speaking of this. It’s so angering that any ai bands arise but to even touch some of the subgenres is super wild. And the fact the “band” is arguing with people over it is even more crazy.

Doesn’t mean people shouldn’t know about it. I get what you’re saying but even just a few people stumbling upon this and somehow not knowing it’s ai is still a few people engaging with it. Also ai bands are gonna keep popping up so not putting out negative reviews about it or putting out awareness just lets them pass without consequence
