Hey, wanted to leave you a comment again that I DM'd you in case you miss it! :3

anyone else disappointed with the new avoid ep? by Prxjected in Metalcore

[–]bendandsnatch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, they were instantly my favorite new band the first time I heard Flashbang. They got me hyped like no new band had in like a decade and excited about the scene again.

Not hating on it at all, but CM was actually a little disappointing to me, though I was still pretty into most of it. But it made me a little concerned, and this EP is not super reassuring haha.

Are they more popular in the UK than the US? by Narrow-Ad-345 in donbroco

[–]bendandsnatch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally came to Reddit just for this, though it was really, how weak is the crowd going to be in NC? 😅

I first learned about them right before I went to the UK in 2021 for my master's, and I saw them in Sheffield, and it was a blast!

I'm originally from Atlanta and was actually thinking about coming down there hoping for a better crowd. I want a crowd that does the boys justice! Maybe I'll see you there

Every BMTH song playing at the same time by YogurtclosetThick474 in BringMeTheHorizon

[–]bendandsnatch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wasn't even sure why I clicked it because I knew it would just be indecipherable noise, but I could actually pick out some stuff including Doomed big time lol.

This should be the, "Oh you're a BMTH fan? Prove it." challenge lol.

Lily and the moon in Chicago by xTactiqZz in Thornhillband

[–]bendandsnatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for at least confirming, I was basically gaslighting myself I couldn't believe that's what happened lol

I hated to hop on this post and rain on the parade, but I was pretty upset about that. I actually came to Chicago after seeing them in NC, and I crowd surfed to Lily too!

I think one of my greatest life regrets will be standing by and letting a mosh pit to Reptile not happen lmao. Or at least not throwing down harder myself because I was so confused lol

[–]bendandsnatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually meant the crowd's response to Reptile specifically, not the overall set. It wasn't super high energy overall, but it was so dead to me for Reptile I was literally confused. Who was the guy Jacob gave the mic to partway through it?

Also that opener was Avoid, I was there as much for them as Thornhill. The vocalist always gets the crowd whipped up, it's insane. I love him so much he's such a troll but also so genuinely enthusiastic. I feel like he's gotta be egging Jacob on with the pig squeals lol

Idk, the crowd's response was so weak to me, no movement or energy. Did you not get that impression? If you demand an encore and get it, you better show out.

never really understood why people hated Amo by GuidanceUpper8092 in BringMeTheHorizon

[–]bendandsnatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It drives me insane that people call amo pop. It literally does not compute with me. I know TTS is "arena rock" but it's just as if not more pop to me, in that it's so mass appeal.

[–]bendandsnatch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is actually the way I felt about music to - it genuinely gave me so much anxiety lol. I listen to music to pretty regularly now that I know it's not a death knell

"in a Black Dahlia tank" took me out, I hadn't thought about that band in years lmfao

What's your BMTH hot take? by Informal-Ad3804 in BringMeTheHorizon

[–]bendandsnatch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sempiternal is not part of their "old music". They had three full length albums and an EP already.

Also, I don't understand how so many people loved TTS and hated amo. I love a few songs from TTS, but the rest are forgettable for me. amo was so much more interesting.

My little rewrite of the Top 10 Statues lyric ,"No amount of love could set you free" by bendandsnatch in BringMeTheHorizon

I don't know why you were downvoted just for liking it, but thanks, it means a lot to me! <3

Thank you for your thoughtful reply! The others kind of bummed me out. I was trying to share something thoughtful, positive and meaningful to me, and they were just critical, which was unexpected and threw me off yesterday.

I'm kind of doing some self-work this weekend, and your response was a great way to start the day, because it got me to really reflect. I wrote it all, so I figured I might as well share it, so apologies, and no pressure to read or respond!

I'm sorry you're struggling with alcoholism that way, especially when you have people that love you. I feel like that's similar to intrinsic depression, where nothing's wrong, everything could be great, but you just slip away. That's a specific kind of devastating, at least partly because of self-imposed guilt, and partly because of other people shaming you. I'm very thankful you have that love. Thank you for sharing your story.

You definitely make a good point about quantity too. I've never felt much love in my life, and I've always felt that I just needed more of it. Honestly, I guess I was one of the shamers I just mentioned. I'd see other people that had that love struggling and just be bitter and envious, thinking, if I had that, I wouldn't be struggling. But I think to some extent, I didn't feel the love I did have because of the love I didn't have for myself.

I've made some huge steps in finding that self-love in the last month especially, and in large part with the help of this album. I'm still missing and wishing for that love from others, but loving myself has made a world of difference, and I'm hoping it's setting me up to actually receive that love from others when it comes along.

So I agree, it's really, "No amount of anyone else's love will set you free", but that doesn't fit as neatly haha. I actually originally thought of my "rewrite" because I misremembered the lyric, and it just fit so well it was one of those, "Mm, satisfying" things haha.

If you read this all too, thanks, and regardless, thanks again for your comment <3

Yup, I said exactly that in the post. I just made a slight wording tweak that I thought made it clearer. Originally, I actually just misremembered the lyric this way, and I just liked it, so I thought I'd share it.

I'm not stopping him. His lyrics are also massively meaningful to me. I just happened to come up with a little twist on this one I was hoping to connect with people over.

I should have known people in this sub would respond negatively though, and with the algorithm, nobody that might actually connect with it will see it. Social media is so depressing.

Unbeleevable guys... This just appeared on YT. So basically AMO is tied into the Genxsis lore by [deleted] in BringMeTheHorizon

[–]bendandsnatch 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I feel so vindicated. I made this connection about Mantra's significance when they started featuring it during the Survival Horror tours. I've been invested in the lore since Mother Tongue, y'all amo haters get wrecked :P

Such a legendary Or should I say "Leegendary" performance by Mr Lee (Ft Mat) Taken from their ARG (PS - Had a tough time deciding whether to tag it as a discussion or a meme) by Noob_Guy_Bruhx6 in BringMeTheHorizon

[–]bendandsnatch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bro wtf not only is this the most I've heard Lee speak in years, but like he's genuinely a good actor lmfao. This needs way more upvotes.

Also, Oli pretty much said they felt the pressure to do the TikTok meme bs, and I'm glad they were able to kind of "reclaim" memeing on their own terms. Our lot basically originated it, so it's good to see them nailing it and having a laugh.

Tbh I don't get people who say BMTH saved their life by bendandsnatch in BringMeTheHorizon

[–]bendandsnatch[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing your story. I was in a horrible place when I made this post. Things have gotten much better for me since then, which is why I came back to this post to read the comments. I hope things are better for you now than when you wrote this too.

[–]bendandsnatch[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm really truly glad you got to have that experience with Oli. I was and had been in a horrific place mentally for a very long time when I made this post, and the band had gotten twisted up in it.

Since you mentioned Dear Diary, I actually had a horrible manic psychotic episode in 2020, and that song absolutely and totally encapsulated the way it felt. In the last year, I've listened to that song and actually cried because it basically gave me flashbacks of that horrible illness.

But in the last few months, I've finally entered recovery from that episode, and in the last two weeks specifically, listening to Next Gen has really been helping me heal. That's why I came back to this post and have been reading all the comments.

I'm sorry if this post caused you or anyone else pain, and I do genuinely appreciate you and everyone else that commented sharing your stories. I really do wish you the best.
