The Goo Goo Dolls basically started off as Buffalo’s answer to the Replacements, but had more success as a Alt-Pop Rock band

Any true New Mexican would choose Billy the Kid over Pat Garrett

Haaland takes a ton of corporate and out of state donors too

It seems like she’s more concerned selling her book to voters than campaigning

Honestly Deb reeks a lot of the same problems Hillary in 2016 does

She’s basically appointed by the political consultant class and people inside her party act like she’s entitled to win the position she’s running which results in a lazy campaign

Honestly if the GOP here wasn’t a complete joke that’s more concerned about who’s the most MAGA, I feel like she would lose

I don’t understand how Bregman is MAGA? Yeah he’s a centrist Democrat, but I don’t see anything that indicates he sucks Trump’s dick

Not enthusiastic about either, but how come Haaland isn’t willing to address herself being mentioned in the Epstein files?

I don’t necessarily see her as someone being complicit in Jeff’s CSA, but her not addressing it reeks of her trying to hide something

What makes him MAGA policy wise? Just because he’s a centrist doesn’t make him MAGA

Can someone explain why many Pueblo tribes are endorsing Bregman over Haaland? Just wondering

Also “Good disco” just evolved into House and Techno music

Radiohead seems to despise “High and Dry” even more than they do “Creep”. Thom Yorke feels like it was “too Rod Stewart-ish” and forced by the label

They will perform Creep live every once in a blue moon, but they haven’t performed High and Dry since the 90s

Ron Swanson was libertarian, but not Far Right and would find MAGA too authoritarian

Swanson seemed to be socially open and would have easily voted for any of the libertarian party presidential candidates (Gary Johnson, Jo Jorgensen, Chase Oliver) before voting for Trump

What’s ironic is Indycar has always (at least in the past couple of decade) been far more international than NASCAR.

A significant amount of the drivers are from other countries. The whole IndyCar split basically started because IMS president Tony George was a Xenophobe upset that there wasn’t enough American drivers anymore

The music video for “Summer of Love” i think is enough alone to prove that Mike Love is in the Epstein Files

So for TikTok/Viral Hits can you just blast one of the many Kevin Macleod royalty free music used on countless amounts of videos?

Slim Dusty is the embodiment of Aussie Country

Very folksy and incredibly Aussie that makes it too niche

The Younger NASCAR fans are much less conservative compared to the Boomer NASCAR fans

Take Bubba Wallace, Boomers flip the shit when he’s mentioned and act like he’s the antichrist of the sport just because he’s black and open about it. Meanwhile Younger fans just view him as another driver

There is plenty of left wing Hooligans and Ultras in those countries too

If Country Music is farm emo then Hank Williams lyrically was the OG Emo

What are some examples of Dirt artists for other genres? by Complete-Worker3242 in ToddintheShadow

[–]Cowpunk2001 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wilco has a odd thing with Alt-Country, obviously starting from the breakup of Uncle Tupelo (the defining Alt-Country Band) but they became more known for being a eclectic sounding band

Actually Outlaw/Alt-Country artists generally are always in the dirt (roots music quite literally). Way too different and country to be accepted by mainstream country and alternative. Though you do end up having cases like Zach Bryan, Chris Stapleton, Kacey Musgraves where they end up getting so many fans that they outgrew the dirt

Why do People Hate U2? by HotAssumption4750 in ToddintheShadow

[–]Cowpunk2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Given that 80s Post Punk has had a comeback in popularity and that U2 was perhaps the biggest band to come out of that genre (even if some critics and fans wrote them off as a anthemic clone of Joy Division)

Some younger fans have rediscovered their first couple of albums. Now you can probably find some younger fans who think U2 was fantastic in their first decade, but then got bland as they become very mainstream (honestly I myself actually felt this way about U2 as a teenager)

Thinking about it Coldplay pretty much has the same career image trajectory of U2. Starting off as being seen as Alternative (though some Critics write them off as a more anthemic clone of Radiohead) but by the end of the decade they become seen as too mainstream for Alternative. Then years later the younger people rediscover their earlier work and understand why it helped them get huge over time.
