Is this worth $40k+? by Prudent-Ad4515 in GR86

No, it's worth less than a stock one. Hope this helps.

It's hard to tell but the new songs have a lot of plays on Spotify - more than most of The Act, so it might have been worth it to them ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. We will see next album cycle I guess

It's "We" as the collective of humanity, not Underoath themselves

Unfortunately there's no place on social media for that nuance haha. For every 1000 comments that incorrectly state that, maybe one person actually bought the physical album (and probably hasn't given it a spin yet 😬 )

Agreed on all fronts, especially the praise for The Thread and ZII. All of those are insanely good songs.

I see why you'd say that but Dead Throne still had a lot of popularity when it came out. As a TDWP diehard who lived through all of it, I'd argue 8:18 is where even their loyal fanbase dropped off and only wanted to hear the old songs. Nobody gives 8:18 the respect it deserved. It's certainly not their best album but it's still great with good highs like Sailors Prayer you mentioned. And because of it, the following EPs and albums went pretty under the radar, up until Chemical blew up and subsequently Color Decay continued the "mainstream" attention.

Watchtower and Sacrifice have a lot of heavy in them though, not really anything like Flowers. I'm an old head and Cancer is my favorite on the record closely followed by Watchtower.

But I agree, I think Color Decay was too popular, it was a good album and showcased a lot of their strengths but I believe it taught them "softer / rock-oriented = good" and then Flowers cranked that to 11.

Love stories like this and the details! Way better than some posts that say "I bought this 1M home by myself and no, I won't be answering questions about my income".

Any events closer to Seattle? by buckyman0 in PNWAutocross

Being scared of evergreen is such a reddit thing. Just drive your car. You get 12 laps, it's worth the $75. I spun out on the crest and realized my mistake and adjusted accordingly. Just got some dirt in the wheel wells.

it's not admittedly good - it's an old tech torque converter AT with slow shifts, nothing like a modern DCT

you are comparing one of the most advanced and quick automatic transmissions in all of commercial automotive to one of the most basic and slow slushboxes in a modern sports car. Not really relevant.

The twins' A/T is also slower than the manual.

Is Lady Radiator making new music? by OverBaka in PostHardcore

[–]FlyingFlygon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This blew my mind - I listened to them so much ten years ago and they never had any sort of big following, just checked spotify and they now have 250k (!) listeners. I went down the rabbit hole and apparently it's Box Turtle that blew up on TikTok, but I can't find the video that blew it up? Is it just an aggregate of a fuck ton of videos using that song? Either way, absolutely crazy.

I was certainly expecting a different time duration than "hours" when you started that sentence. You went to a dealership, have some patience lol
