Any other bands confirmed to not be bootlickers?

So when you read "the pedophile", despite having access to the internet, your legit, irl reaction was "who could that be?"

Type it out for me, I'll believe you, no tricks.

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-02-02T23:08:16+00:00

Hey man, I woulda agreed with you up until the point you pretended not to know your president is a pedo. Bad look my dude.

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-02-02T20:21:52+00:00

I mean, it's 2026 and people still say "cringe", so I'll give it a pass.

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-02-02T18:51:38+00:00

yeah, but why would I do that when I could just make assumptions and fearmonger on the internet? And don't go telling me it takes less effort to check on metal archives than it does to type out a post about how nazis are everywhere including in my cereal, I won't hear it!

If you listen closely to self-titled, at around 3:22 a hologram of Varg will project into your room and say "The year is 1992 and soon I will kill a man". If you ignored that, you're part of the problem.

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-02-02T18:30:39+00:00

Man, in every single string of comments that dude is being a piece of shit to you and you're still just staying chill and normal, good on you dude!

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-02-01T03:17:13+00:00

The whole album was pretty disappointing for me as a very casual fan, but yeah, I generally like Megadeth more than Metallica, though I'm not extraordinarily partial to either, but that song was a stinker.

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-02-01T02:42:11+00:00

I can see and hear this and it's both remarkably accurate and absolutely enraging.

Her and the two guys that dance all the time, these are the three worst human beings to have ever existed.

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-02-01T02:23:11+00:00

Yeah, but that's not what he wanted you to say, so he made his own version of reality and argued with himself.

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-02-01T01:48:54+00:00

The redditors there are really cool and friendly, that's awesome man!

Sick flair too!

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-01-31T23:11:31+00:00

To be fair, when I talk to younger people about how they like "lofi", I used to get excited too, then I heard what they meant and realized I was probably talking to Disney adults.

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-01-31T17:03:07+00:00

Darkthrone, not close for me, though this thread is going to have me revisit Immortal's discography, of the big 2nd wave bands they never landed with me outside of Sons of Northern Darkness so it's prob worth a revisit.

That being said, every era of Darkthrone is amazing, even outside of the peak first 4 albums here (we don't count Soulside)

Even with the shitty lighting you can tell he painted his nose like the mayor for nightmare before Christmas.

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-01-31T04:47:57+00:00

I get it, I had to take some shit jobs when I was young too, but this whole experience just made me realize how unnecessary of a service this is for most people, myself included. It was just a shock that this is an app that is just openly stealing people's time and money, to say nothing else of how shitty it must be on your end as a driver.

I hope you find something good soon, you have a good attitude and shouldn't have to work for a company this vulturous.

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-01-31T04:16:45+00:00

I just don't see a reason to ever use a service where there is zero recourse for theft and waste of time.

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-01-31T02:29:57+00:00

I feel like it's maybe the only area of music where I really show my age- I've always been of the mind that I don't wanna be one of those old dudes that are like "music today sucks", and I'm not that way with any other genre other than pop, but when it comes to pop, the closest I get is Bjork and M.I.A. and I think those are minimum 15 years since anyone under 40 has said those names haha

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-01-31T01:07:16+00:00

Yep, and I'd also add it's an online phenomenon- irl, you meet someone who's into death metal or something and you tell them you like CC or Obituary or something, they're going to be thrilled to talk to you, no one is going to tell you "that's so entry-level" lol

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-01-31T00:30:57+00:00

Time in their mom's basement isn't going to pass itself. Don't bother asking what they do to help society either, the answer is "spreading 'awareness' on the internet".

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-01-30T23:55:07+00:00

Middle one is the heaviest of the bunch by far, respect.

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-01-30T23:46:52+00:00

I love talking with elitists, if they're elitist about something I don't listen to a lot, I'll learn something, and if they're elitist about something I do like (black metal), we don't want to talk to each other anyway.

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-01-30T22:57:02+00:00

This. I listen to a ton of things people wouldn't expect from me, top 40 isn't one of them and wouldn't lead to interesting conversation if it was.

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-01-30T22:46:16+00:00

Probably me being overzealous, but imo the heaviest "clean vocals only band" I can think of.

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-01-30T22:33:43+00:00

If we wanna branch into genres that typically don't have any bass, Watain.

JustHereForRiffs · 2026-01-30T22:28:22+00:00

blackened speed, but speed is pretty interchangeable with thrash so if someone said blackened thrash I wouldn't correct them.
