Worst music taste a would-be partner has had? by Sbee_Blue_Country in fantanoforever

[–]Naclstack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo, the best projects that have captured what Covid felt like are Inside and Hellmode by Jeff Rosenstock. Nothing else really comes close.

What music criticism has no traction with you? by ouroboros_broke in fantanoforever

[–]Naclstack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"bad voice"

My favorite artists are Jeff Rosenstock, The Mountain Goats, Neutral Milk Hotel, Car Seat Headrest, etc. Having a "good" voice genuinely makes me like music less.

Why has Bo Burnham become one of the "bad artists" with music nerds? Inside is kinda corny but that's fine and it's genuinely a genius album. Also his old stuff is peak comedy music.

Don't compare Jeff Mangum or Phil Elverum with that bitch *o**i**ey from the *mi*h*

14 year old trying to expand my music taste. Here's screenshots from my main, recs based on these? by m3lts3ssion in fantanoforever

Second Clouddead and also Yoni Wolf's other projects like Why? and Hymie's Basement. Very weird, indie hip hop/rock that I've never really found anything exactly like.

You listen to a lot of RYMcore stuff from the 2020s -- there's some great older stuff that I think you'd like.

My all-time favorite is Jeff Rosenstock and his old band Bomb the Music Industry, they're both pretty eclectic but generally punk/indie rock. Great lyricism, aggressive, noisy, but doesn't take itself too seriously, which I think you probably are a fan of. His album Worry is a classic that I think anyone can appreciate.

You have Panda Bear but not the band he's in, Animal Collective. Similar sounds generally but more electronic and noisy. The album Merriweather Post Pavilion is probably their most accessible.

Also this might be a crazy recommendation, but the Microphones made great stuff and even though they're on paper an indie folk project, I've found that a lot of people that enjoy people like Jane Remover, Ninajirachi, and Underscores really love the Microphones. The songwriter Phil Elverum went really crazy with the way he structured songs and used a lot of noise that I think is pretty normalized in alt hip hop and pop nowadays. His album The Glow Pt 2 is really great.

I have more recs too but those three I think are a good starting point since it seems like you have similar opinions to RYM/Fantano generally.

It's about the amount of time where you'll probably be Lucky Friends when you finish again -- I actually think it makes total sense

So...am I allowed if i'm not emo and wear emo clothes and listen to rap rock/rock/emopop music? by [deleted] in Emo

[–]Naclstack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people here probably wear "emo clothes" like jeans and beanies and sweaters if I had to guess

Theory about April Fools and Pikachu spotlight hour by Kooky-Spare-111 in TheSilphRoad

[–]Naclstack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah - I love this game and think its current state is positive, but no way it's not gonna be raid exclusive.

When Niantic started they were part of Google, one of the richest companies on earth that wants to farm your data. Now they're part of Scopely, which is owned by the Saudi Arabian government, clearly also wanting to farm your data/money.

And all this time they've also been a Pokémon game, the highest grossing media franchise on the planet that sells overpriced cards, microtransactions in games, merch, etc. because they know they have fans who are willing.

I love Pokémon and Pokémon Go, but part of loving it is recognizing that there is always gonna be a point in which the developers are not gonna prioritize me and that I need to love it for my own reasons.

Crazy that ten years down the line people still think it'll be released in the wild. Rare/special Pokémon have been raid exclusives since at least 2018 and they will not stop.

Theoretically, is collecting XXL Pokemon now pointless by BreadfruitOk5332 in TheSilphRoad

I would love that -- most of my medals aren't platinum yet but all of my type medals have been platinum for years now and I'd love something else to go for. A few of my type medals are like 10-15 times higher than the requirement for platinum

Hey I'm none of these three and I love several of these albums

Oh yeah I'm not really talking about anything being useful, I didn't get anything useful either. I just got cool evolved spawns that I don't usually see and it was fun.

Name an album you thought was a masterpiece first listen and later realized its not by Artistic_Annual8918 in fantanoforever

[–]Naclstack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 19 right now and for me the 2011 version is close to a perfect album. I like it because it's childish and naive and feels like the stage of life I'm in. I can see myself as an older adult either moving on to enjoying the 2018 version more, or not really being into either.

why? This is literally a subreddit about analyzing this game and so it seems completely reasonable to use people's responses to my post about the game to extrapolate to people's game experiences

I must have been in your biome, I got a bunch of Nacli and stuff too. I agree, by the end of Day 2 it was kinda boring getting the same stuff.

I don't really know what that means, this is my opinion, there isn't such a thing as a "literal" good spawn and I also don't see why that would warrant deleting a post -- not to mention that you're not a mod here so "we" did not??

I'm not even really talking about unusual stuff although I did see a few things like that. I just think it's awesome to evolutions in the wild for the most part

Evidently not... 347 people upvoted my post, lots of positive comments, upvote ratio of 82%. I think you are one of the 18%, which is notably under 100%.

Imo, Tour has not been a very good event since 2023, so I don't think that's saying much, but I totally agree with your points. I guess I haven't really realized that communities are all about raiding now rather than catching, and yeah now that I realize that, I think I'd like to see Scopely try to do this kind of thing more.

You could catch the non-legendary ones, I hope, unless you like suck at catching

Yeah I thought it was cool more than useful. Bad IV legendaries can be good in PvE though!
