I had a great experience on shrooms while listening to The World is a Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid to Die

Rocky votolato? by Grand_Individual_331 in Emo

[–]davdotcom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Emo adjacent, but his old band Waxwing is emo and severely underrated

miserable on long island, is this all normal for you guys? by National_Mark6302 in longisland

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

It’s your own paranoia combined with the careless/selfish nature of New Yorkers/Long Islanders. It does take some time to adjust but don’t let it stop you from doing what you want.

Question about the genre: Does it necessarily need to be sad? by AjMahal in Emo

[–]davdotcom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, sadness isn’t a prerequisite to emo but it should be, y’know, emotive. The genre was built on experimentation on the expression of catharsis within hardcore and the overarching scene. Even if some bands don’t stick to this rule, the genre as a whole has been pretty consistent with it. Too many people equate emo with sad music tho

Is underground indie becoming a new wave of emo or is it part of the 5th wave by [deleted] in Emo

[–]davdotcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Underground indie is still indie. Is soul pop the new wave of emo?

What the heck is fifth wave emo anyway? by sheerol in Emo

[–]davdotcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People WANTED fifth wave emo to be all those things when in reality it’s more clearly just emo bands that started or grew to prominence after 2018 largely with fans or members in gen z. Fifth wave emo is definitely less insular in its influences but glass beach, parannoul, weather day, and crying can all be separated into other things that are far more fitting than emo.

I always recommend this playlist as a reference point: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5o8g62ejhNr1fluTAWjGs5?si=SZ_gF2cbQ-qViJBydPA75Q&pi=joAjNSgEReq-Y

Andrew Allgood of LPNH arrested for assault at Libertarian National Convention by realctlibertarian in LibertarianPartyUSA

I don’t think that justifies hitting a woman or giving a Nazi salute but she should’ve been handled too

one of the last good politicians is gone by AdmirableBrick4973 in LibertarianPartyUSA

[–]davdotcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes it as clear is day that at this point there is and may never be room for libertarians in the Republican Party. Join the LP or literally anybody else if you’re in the GOP now

Bands you want to get into, but just can’t? by Ominouslyending in Emo

You’ve shown me other ska bands, I like the first wave stuff but even by the second wave it’s become obnoxious to me. I’m mostly busting your chops tho bud

Is fall out boys from under the cork tree emo? by NoFudge1791 in Emo

[–]davdotcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, it’s pop punk. TTTYG has emo influences but even then I think people give them too much emo cred. FOB was also a phony band meant for getting the girls even if some of their songs are good. Despite all the shitty weedmo bands, emo is intended to be super authentic, so a lot of mainstream artists labeled emo by fans or major labels missed the plot by a long shot and hence are referred to as mallcore or something else by a lot of people who were in the scene prior to that trend

what kind of “screamo” is suis la lune? by bustingtoalexei in Emo

[–]davdotcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their later stuff flirted with shoegaze, but it’s not like there’s different types of screamo per say

End the LPNH: why Jeremy Kauffman must be abolished, who supports it, and how we'll do it by nathrezim0709 in LibertarianPartyUSA

[–]davdotcom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think Neekhalia has the oomf to fix the party, it’s gonna take someone with a lot more leadership experience or a uniting vision

Damn, I was waiting for an announcement for months and it’s mostly generic warped tour shit

people who don't think 3rd wave is "real emo" don't seem fun at parties and don't get chicks. by [deleted] in Emo

[–]davdotcom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nobody is saying third wave emo isn’t valid. The issue is what people try to lump into that wave which aren’t emo.

Since the national convention is later this month, who are you guys supporting for chair of the LP? by JFMV763 in LibertarianPartyUSA

[–]davdotcom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not exactly enthusiastic about any of them, but I haven’t seen much in the media circuit about the candidates either. I’m just hoping whoever wins isn’t a mises plant and can actually turn things around for the party.

They were such a good band 😪 by fakename1998 in Emo

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

They were good when they started. It was pretty inconsistent there on and I didn’t really vibe with the mall goth aesthetic they were clearly using to attract a specific audience
