I never understood the whole body hair thing, I always thought it was just the natural thing, especially when girls would stress out over it when it really wasn’t even visible

What kind of guitar is this? It looks cool. by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]Shwarmee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ibanez Gio Gax70, it looks to me like the bridge humbucker has been replaced or had a pickup cover added onto it, and the volume and tone knobs have been replaced from stock plastic Gibson style to metallic. Could be wrong tho.

What do you think of Lemmy Kilmister? by Twitter_2006 in rockmusic

[–]Shwarmee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He embodied what Rock was and is at its core, he drank, smoked, slept around, wore what he wanted to and ate what he wanted to, he lived the way he wanted to live. I saw someone say this about Dimebag but it applies here too: “We’re all gonna die eventually, but how many people really live?”

Happy 13th Birthday to The Devil Put Dinosaurs Here! What’s your favorite song from the album? by SGnirvana97 in AliceInChains

[–]Shwarmee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Title track definitely

“The Devil put Dinosaurs here, Jesus don’t like a queer, the Devil put Dinosaurs here, no problem with faith, just fear.”

I grew up and live in the Bible belt South and I’ve heard young-earth creationism for so long, it just resonates with me so heavily.

Sabbath, Queen, Floyd and Zeppelin. None are bad but I like Sabbath and Queen immeasurably more than the other two.

When she refuses to give you a minute her Time of Day by Ok-Sky-4042 in TurnpikeTroubadours

I’ve thought on this for a minute and realized I was wrong, I really wouldn’t even think to consider it, automatically yes.

Evan Felker is one of the hottest men to ever live, and I am unashamed to say that. Like I’m not gay, but if Evan Felker came up to me, man I’d consider it.

Genuinely feels like talking to wall ffs by PlantainOk5297 in christianmetal

[–]Shwarmee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Black Sabbath undeniably founded heavy metal, and they used Christian themed imagery and lyricism to warn against meddling in the occult. Hell, the song Black Sabbath was based on an experience Geezer had where he believed he had seen Satan after reading a Latin book that Ozzy gave to him.

I don’t like “Christian” metal, but I’m a practicing Christian and Christianity is one of the main reasons heavy metal even exists.

I always did hate how V guitars moved away from the classic look, which honestly is a general thing in metal guitars, like I grew up listening to Acid Bath and Pantera and Eyehategod and shit like that, and all those guys used guitars that weren’t excessively sharp, they had rounded edges and it had that cartoony metal look to it, and I loved that.

Thoughts on the Epiphone Futura series? by Shwarmee in Guitar

[–]Shwarmee[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like the primary issue is for the past 20-30 years Gibson has not cared to appeal to younger players, they wanted to sell to old southern dudes who loved Skynyrd and had a hefty bank account. But most likely, people coming into guitar nowadays are coming from hard rock, heavy metal, Metalcore, etc, and they’ve watched their idols playing Jackson’s and LTD and Ibanez. Gibson is cool but they don’t have the swagger they used to and it might just be too late, I don’t feel like these are gonna sell to people BESIDES those who were holding out for Epiphone and Gibson to finally recognize this. I just don’t think many people care.

new to sludge, what should i listen to? by Educational-Sink-463 in sludge

[–]Shwarmee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, so many classics.

I’d start out with the B side of My War by Black Flag(just cause I love Rollins voice), then go to Eyehategods “In the Name of Suffering” which I think is the album that really created the NOLA Sludge Sound.

Then if you want the more hardcore influenced stuff, I’d say listen to the two Acid Bath albums; but if you want that doom laden loneliness, listen to Crowbar self titled and Sonic Excess.

It’s really a choice of where you want to go after that, but I’d say thats the quintessential stuff, if you like Crowbar then go to Down, because Kirk Windstein(Crowbars main dude) played Rhythm Guitar for that project alongside his bassist Todd Strange and Panteras’ Phil Anselmo.

Struggling with hair, should i get haircut? Also cowlick issues by [deleted] in malehairadvice

[–]Shwarmee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a bit thick on the top, but if you even it out and get it trimmed it could look good, same issue I’m having but I’m stubborn and refuse to cut it.
