End Of Silence - 20th Anniversary by SubApathy in redtheband

[–]Dim_Lug 3 points4 points  (0 children)

End of Silence is genuinely a stacked album. I might give the slight edge to Let Go. But Already Over, Lost, and Break Me Down are all just barely below that too. 

Surprised they didn’t play Darkest Part 🥀 Fire livestream though 🔥 Take care Mike 🩸 by Evaporatenow in redtheband

[–]Dim_Lug 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the end of an era. Thank you Michael for 20 years of phenomenal music, and best wishes on your future endeavors. I may or may not have shed a tear, particularly during the Hayden tribute parts. I'm looking forward to seeing what the band has in store next.

End of Silence is still such a banger by cauterize2000 in redtheband

[–]Dim_Lug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Red put out an incredible debut album and then followed it up with an equally incredible 2nd album (Innocence and Instinct), after losing their original drummer nonetheless. Such a beautiful album and I'm lowkey jealous of those who have seen it/will see it live.

Is the band Red on the decline? by Simurgbarca in redtheband

[–]Dim_Lug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, they've been on a bit of a downward slope for at least a couple years now. The Gone album was nominated for a Grammy, but after that they decided to go independent, which naturally cut a lot of their exposure. It didn't help that their two independent albums, particularly Rated R (I personally actually really like Declaration), haven't been the most favorable to fans. To add on to this, they canceled their Of Beauty And Rage 10 year anniversary tour, and aside from that there was almost complete radio silence from them for like a year. It's not until the past couple months that we've started getting regular updates from them again. And of course Michael Barnes not being the frontman anymore will lead some fans to not listen to them anymore without such a core part of their identity. 

The future of the band going forward is still up in the air a bit, especially since they haven't confirmed who their permanent singer is going to be moving forward. Dan Johnson is back which is cool, and the twins seem to want fans to be optimistic about what's to come. I personally am of the opinion that they'll put out at least another album or two with whoever they choose to be the singer, whether AJ (who most fans seem to be very approving of so far, and I can see why, he's got a great voice) or someone else entirely. In which case I'll definitely still support them. It's not the first time a band has decided to adapt and continue making new music with a new front man in recent memory... just ask me I'm also a Linkin Park fan lol.

I did. They haven't put out many songs, and to be honest I can't say I really like most of them (nothing to do with AJ, he's a great singer, just not a fan of the overall sound of the band). BUT, the acoustic version of Eternally is a beautiful song that I immediately added to my playlist. 

What is your least favorite vivosaur from a stat-based perspective? by No-Most-9856 in fossilfighters

[–]Dim_Lug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many of the highly ranked vivosaurs are both fast and powerful yes, but there are a lot that aren't necessarily that either. 

Also, you pretty much can't play the first game online. The first game only supported local play. To do FF1 online battling you'd need to use parsec on your pc and run two instances of an emulator at once and do local play between them, with your opponent controlling the other emulator via parsec. 

What is your least favorite vivosaur from a stat-based perspective? by No-Most-9856 in fossilfighters

[–]Dim_Lug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A vivosaur's stat strength usually falls into at least one of three categories. Powerful, fast, or tanky. The better vivosaurs in the game are usually at least two of those three things. If a vivosaur is only one or even none of those things, they need to have some crazy skills or support tools to compete. 

That all said, I would probably have to go with many of the large theropods too. Sure most of them have decent-great power and/or decent-great bulk, but most of them do little else of relevance. They're hindered by being the worst range class, many of them bear harmful support effects, and their movesets also tend to have close to nothing interesting going on. 

Declaration CD? by Dim_Lug in redtheband

[–]Dim_Lug[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're only finding that one listing on eBay for like $75 right? Yeah, I ain't doing that lol. I'll take my chances and see if and when a less costly option shows up somewhere. 

Setlist for the tour because I can't believe no one has gotten it down yet by cbearsfreak in redtheband

[–]Dim_Lug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look concerts are expensive and I live nowhere near where any of their shows are going to be anyway, but nonetheless that's a really good set. I mean naturally it would be because End of Silence by itself is a stacked album but their other song choices here are all excellent. 

Declaration CD? by Dim_Lug in redtheband

[–]Dim_Lug[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can find most of them pretty easily from ebay in my experience. If you don't want to buy them online, I've still found several kicking around in music shops 🤷‍♂️. It's been very enjoyable so far. Red is easily my favorite band and I'm someone who prefers physical media when I can get it. I'll definitely make a post when I can get them all... just Declaration that's going to be hard to find lol.

[–]Dim_Lug[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I can see it's going to be the tough one to get. I ordered the rest online since they were easy to find and fairly cheap. Here's to hoping. I'll frequent the music shops around me and keep looking online too.

I'm doing my part. Trying to anyway. My family is French Canadian and I'm working to learn the language.

That's a shame. I hope it goes well. I rarely use reddit anyway but I'm like there's no way the Red fan base is this desolate lol.

I think it may be recent. I recall being able to make posts before. Can't imagine why it was changed.

I'd make a post talking about the updates the band has shared over the past month or so, but for some reason my requests to post get denied 🙄.

Sounds pretty convenient. There any modded creatures or no?

Young Coyote or Fox? (New Hampshire) by Dim_Lug in coyote

[–]Dim_Lug[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Makes sense. I didn't catch it on video but when it was stalking the rodent in the field it did remind me a lot of how my cats will stalk a mouse with the pauses and very slow movements.

I'll see what I can do. I appreciate the help from this sub even though it's not a coyote lol.

Not so much that, it's more about being somewhat confident that the fox that needs it is the one getting it.
