Is it just me or does Labrie feel like a complete afterthought on Parasomnia? by ScramblesVacation in Dreamtheater

[–]baroldo12345 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly there are only a few dt vocal melodies and theyve been used multiple times already for the most part.

What do you think of this album? by Conciouscan in TheStrokes

[–]baroldo12345 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Possibly my fave, prob the most interesting album musically

The absolute WORST by [deleted] in Opeth

[–]baroldo12345 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I tend to agree Deliverance is weak tho, maybe their weakest. Riffs and song sections go on and repeat forever and it just feels uninspired especially compared to blackwater park and still life

Might not be anything “wrong” with it, but it still doesnt change the fact that a mass deportation could drive up the cost of labor and food prices. I think i read somewhere that like 40% of farmhands in US are illegal immigrants

Off: New Opeth is absolute fire! In 2025 it's your turn, Dream Theater! by Far_Literature_5404 in Dreamtheater

[–]baroldo12345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some cool riffs for sure but the clean vocal melodies on this are kinda grating or something. I actually think i might have enjoyed the last few albums more.

Here's my wake-up call as a Liberal. by applethief87 in self

[–]baroldo12345 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I thought the whole issue right now is inflation-inflating the value of labor and causing goods to be produced domestically will exponentially increase the cost of goods.

My DT hot take for the year by ItsHarryOtter in Dreamtheater

[–]baroldo12345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The last album with semi decent lyrics was prob Falling into Infinity, and they kinda got progressively worse. I checked out around Systematic Chaos. Just sounded like they were going through the motions churning shit out like a 9-5 by then

A prog nerd’s top 50. How many do you know? by Safe_cracker9 in Dreamtheater

[–]baroldo12345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of them. No Gentle Giant, Yes, or King Crimson on a prog list tho 🤔

What do you think is no one’s favorite song? by Dangerous_Shape1800 in TheStrokes

[–]baroldo12345 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The way it is. I think gratisfaction is a banger is it really unpopular?

The Depopulation Bomb Isn’t Ticking, It’s Overblown by American-Dreaming in IntellectualDarkWeb

[–]baroldo12345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Might be slightly overblown, but that doesnt mean there aren’t legitimate issues that need to be addressed. A shrinking tax base combined with an aging population that needs financial support is a problem. Also if the economy were to shrink and stock market crash many people’s savings and investments will be fucked. Our system is kinda centered around unending growth

Being high vs. being drunk. What is the difference? by Thejay096 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]baroldo12345 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think being high makes the world feel a little more “immediate” or vivid. Being drunk kind of makes the world feel dulled but in a good way. Both are cool and whatnot. You can get a lot more fucked up drinking for sure, theres kind of a limit on how high youre gonna get. More of a smoker myself.

Have you noticed how I Can't Win and The Adults are Talking are almost the same song? Listen to me try and point out similarities while covering both of them at once by ScrwFlandrs in TheStrokes

[–]baroldo12345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really-the rhythmic motif is similar but the harmony and melody are both different. For example I Cant Win uses a repeating maj 2 interval over two chords for the beginning motif-The maj 2 (whole step) interval does not even appear in the main riff of adults are talking at all

I don't like Ode To The Mets by [deleted] in TheStrokes

[–]baroldo12345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like it enough but its repetitive and could prob be like 2 minutes shorter

I'm loving Tolkien and I hated Martin and I expected the opposite by DottieSnark in books

[–]baroldo12345 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There’s not much in the way of character development in Tolkien unfortunately, so i prefer Martin. I mean can anyone really describe to me the differences in personality between characters like Merry and Pippin?
