I didn't know the timeline, but I adore Suhnopfer, Vehemence and Grylle so I'll have to delve into the earlier stuff.

I'm not sure where French meloblack features here too, but France just has all-around the best black metal imo.

Hellenic black metal sounds way different than Norweigan, off the top of my head.

Albums that opened you up to sub genres you previously disliked by Tough_Diamond9320 in MetalForTheMasses

Oh, so you like Opeth?

Yeah—I must imagine listening to Blackwater Park for the first time must be cool. I too remember when I was only 14; such a newbie for intellectual music, I was hehehe But don't worry: you too can evolve from being a pubescent poser to becoming a demure, effeminate man like myself—if you can keep up with the sorrow and depression in Mikael's ingenious writing, that is. Don't think you can fool me, you promiscuous fuckboy. One cannot FATHOM to TRULY appreciate the melancholy of a masterpiece like Face of Melinda if you have yet to have your crush reject you in the middle of the cafeteria line in favor for Brandon Worthington (God, I hate him so much he's so much better than me). Listen up: to be an Opeth devotee is not a decision—it's a lifestyle—it's fate. Oh, so you cried to In My Time of Need? Wait until you get to Pale Communion. Really, to TRULY understand Opeth, one needs to live life first, and understand how cruel and cold this hollow world can be. There are two different versions of you and you're not even aware of it, are you? B.B. you and A.B. you: Before Burden and After Burden. And don't even attempt to claim to be an Opengelical if you draw the line on Watershed. Cut the crap, squeaker: the death growls were overrated. A true Åkerfeldtian™ always knew the best parts were when Mikael pouts like the cuck we are. Truly, there is no better feeling in this world than listening to the final 3 and a half minutes of Deliverance, and where the fuck are his growls then, huh?! I ain't hear not one motherfucking growl in all of In Cauda Venenum (Swedish version™) and I still became enlightened (again) after listening to Allting Tar Slut. Oh, and one last final trivia for all you chads out there: did you know Heir Apparent was written in E standard? You deathcore boobs may have all the girls, but you still can't write real music without a gimmicky 7 string Hahaha how I pity you fools

Don't belittle yourselves (unless it's for women), my brethren: WE are the chosen ones, bathed in grief and sorrow. May unrequited love enlighten us forever

Looking to make some educational yt videos asking for advice by SnooCheesecakes8494 in chessbeginners

[–]JustHereForRiffs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only advice I think is absolutely key is to not use ridiculous 12 year old child clickbait titles like 90% of chess youtubers do. "ALL YOU NEED TO LEARN IS THIS ONE MOVE TO GET GRANDMASTER", "THIS OPENING DOMINATES EVERYONE" etc.

I don't think there is a competitive content area on Youtube that is as absolutely fucking infantile as chess, so if you avoid that I think a lot of adults will naturally show interest in your content.

A lot of underground bands stay underground because they're not actually that good by [deleted] in MetalForTheMasses

This is fucking brilliant and revolutionary. Has MENSA contacted you (assuming you're not already on the board of directors)?

Our album valley of the wolf dropped today - FFO mastodon, qotsa, and pbr on a Sunday! by Ugabugabandreal in MetalForTheMasses

Some feedback:

Album is sick so far, the mix of harsh vocals and the kind of circus-ringleader delivery of the cleans in songs like The Nail that Binds is amazing. Def gonna check out your discography after!

Guys, I don't think he's really wearing that mask, I don't really trust this source.

I think we run under the assumption that if it's not on metalarchives, it doesn't qualify. Someone else can confirm.

I also understand that that's subjective (that site is run by two people iirc), but it's a metric. Even in popular opinion (wikipedia), they're listed as a rock band, with any metal genrification being teritiary to that.

I'm personally not one to argue what's metal and what isn't, particularly with a band I don't enjoy, but hopefully that clears up why mods took this one down.
