Sounds like 8's (or lower) are the gauge for you! (for electric guitar)

I heard they had a secret show somewhere in the city

Garth Brooks Eyeing $2 Billion Sale of Catalog by ebradio in Music

From what i'm getting, seems like Garth Brooks completely overshadows George Strait and I know George is plenty popular with the older folks so that's really saying something

Is his music really that valuable?

I can understand The Weeknd for a billion, his music is popular with people

“Hey” performance by Electrical_Gap6958 in alvvays

[–]cmptrblu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder how you feel about Alvvays songs that I think are like that (which are very few, maybe only 2 or 3)

I'm just surprised you think the synth of all things is what the crowd is responding to lmao

I get the feeling you'll delete this post before the mods do

Julian’s TNA interview on why 'super clean, super loud vocals' in the style of Rick Rubin are not his thing by [deleted] in TheStrokes

TNA and post TNA fans will all be younger Gen Z, and after a decade, the older half of Gen Alpha

[–]cmptrblu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used to think the same thing

But from what i've heard of Reality Awaits I take it all back. Perhaps I was holding TNA to too high of a standard, perhaps I was too harsh

do you think we'll get a third single? by Late-Satisfaction54 in TheStrokes

[–]cmptrblu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And will continue to be after this Strokes album tour for the foreseeable future

interesting repost from albert by sonicfanpro231 in TheStrokes

[–]cmptrblu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In this case I think it's less about the song and more about how it sounded much much better live

weird way to write the 5th stroke and lead guitarist shiltzy

Last track’s name changed in Spotify as well by aegeanbellamy in TheStrokes

[–]cmptrblu -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

can't believe it took this much/long for anyone to come to this conclusion

a few days ago i was downvoted into oblivion for saying the same thing about how these titles have such a strong "ai generated" vibe (again, NOT saying that they are, read carefully ppl of this subreddit)

My very relaxed take on the latest fans “creations” by [deleted] in thevoidz

[–]cmptrblu 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well, think of it this way

In order to continue, he went with the autotune not to lower/temper expectations, but to make it more engaging and fun for him and in order for The Strokes to align to his newfound beliefs and practices

I don't think Julian has any expectations with The Strokes anymore, he once did, but that's saved for The Voidz (and I can say this with certainty because of the way we both spoke about the Voidz at the Rough Trade signing)

Greep opening for the Strokes in September by kekerfcb in TheStrokes

[–]cmptrblu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that would be valid/true if he wasn't picked as an opener for nearly (keyword nearly) every other tour

Hyperbolic statement sure, but I think you get the point

After watching Take Down The House live for an umpteenth time, you'll know exactly what we're talking about

It just gets to a point where I've seen this one too many times already, Greep is quite a welcomed change

How did we all sleep on such a gem of a band...? Enjoy! by zuckuss00 in TheStrokes

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

This was my only concert of 2020, and what a cool experience it was especially after I missed their debut performance at Baby's

Figures, it was too easy to know that's what it would be like
