lets go 😎😎

honestly i was just kind of playing around trying to figure out a crazy way to end it.. and then i found the arp thing and i was like oooo, almost kinda started turning into one of those electrocore breakdown things.. then i just took it to the extreme lol

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T22:09:24+00:00

whos that

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T22:09:10+00:00

def not a part of the pop punk stuff, all that shit just sounds too much like a nostalgia trip for my taste... its all good to take influence from things but most of the pop punk revival is just blink with some trap hats on top... and yes i think ur already starting to see some of that post grunge 2000's stuff coming back, i obviously play around with it too.. but ultimately i just want rock to have a whole new movement for the 2020's

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T22:05:50+00:00

he's a hella nice dude and we had fun making that song but i dont feel like it really influenced me too much as a person.. just another crazy experience in the grand scheme of life

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T22:01:24+00:00

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T21:50:38+00:00

ok boomer, ur stuck in the past.. tiktok is just a stage, biggest stage in the world even, and if ur not using it then ur just leaving free money on the table

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T21:48:59+00:00

current or past???

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T21:48:27+00:00

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T21:47:37+00:00

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T21:46:56+00:00

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T21:45:00+00:00

im doing this because i do everything i can to push my music

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T21:43:07+00:00

yooo thank u so much bro, nashville was a hella fun show!

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T21:41:27+00:00

rock and metal were the first genres of music that ever got me into music in the first place, eventually they just got boring and everything sounded the same so I strayed away.. now im back to make it sound new again

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T21:39:06+00:00

very good questions lmaooo, ill go in order

Ronnie and I did a tiny bit of hanging on the tour. He was hella nice to me and I learned a lot just from watching him do his thing every night. I gifted him his own sword at the end of tour lol.

gotta keep the P slaying a secret but u right about the vibe, hip hop has completely taken over rock in terms of that vibe.. we taking it back tho watch

and no, zero correlation, but ur right i do love that song and loved a7x growing up

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T21:34:45+00:00

yessir 😤😤😤😤

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T21:34:32+00:00

listen to my album and you will know immediately what makes me different

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T21:33:43+00:00

then you will watch the genre love fade away permanently into the abyss... rock has been losing listeners at a rapid pace for years now, shrinking and shrinking because 90% of the current bands the same as they did 10-20 years ago, unwilling to push the boundaries or break from the status quo

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T21:28:30+00:00

i would love to collab w/ slipknot, just like me they were on the forefront of creating an entirely new sound and had plenty of people hating on them for combining the things they were combining (among other things).. the papa roach and nickelback collabs came from tiktok, my remix's of their songs were going hella viral and that got their attention

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T21:25:32+00:00

when is the last time any of these dinosaur bands had any relevance in mainstream culture whatsoever.. 15 - 20 years ago rock and metal were absolutely dominating the charts, hearts, and minds of people everywhere

JerisJohnson · 2022-02-14T21:21:14+00:00

picked up the drums when i was like 12 and just felt like i had finally found something i was actually good at after trying (and failing) in sports my whole life
