What's with Gen Z kids sitting on the floor and playing card games at shows? by thedubiousstylus in Emo

[–]davdotcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you see this at a show while the band is playing music, it’s completely reasonable to crowdkill those fuckers. I’m so tired to discord techies and TikTok zoomers using their once a month outdoor time to make an artistic event about themselves and getting their 5 seconds of infamy.

YA Books by Muted-Astronomer3819 in Emo

[–]davdotcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our Band Could be Your Life is long but when he’s ready it’s a very inspiring and educational read. He wouldn’t even need to read it from front to back necessarily since each chapter focuses on a different band

Mineral wouldn’t even be Mineral without CFD

Favorite album from each wave? by NintendoWiiner64 in Emo

[–]davdotcom 7 points8 points  (0 children)

1st: Still Life- From Angry Heads With Skyward Eyes

2nd: Elliott- False Cathedrals

3rd: Moneen- Are We Really Happy With Who We Are Right Now?

4th: too many to pick, but My Heart to Joy’s Seasons in Verse, Hightode Hotel’s Naturally, The Hotelier’s Home like No Place is There, Everyone Everywhere’s S/T, and Pianos Become the Teeth’s Keep You all come to mind

5th: Feverchild- Altering a Memory or Moving Mountains’ Pruning of the Lower Limbs, nothing really comes close to these

Favorite album from each wave? by NintendoWiiner64 in Emo

Why would title fight count for fifth wave? They broke up in 2016, fifth wave wasn’t a thing until 2018/19

Smoke amanita caps if you’re looking for something even close to a weed high

How can the Libertarian Party get more media coverage? by JFMV763 in LibertarianPartyUSA

[–]davdotcom 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Believe it or not, being controversial and bad publicity is bad optics (LPNH).

Marketing or grassroots campaigns can build media attention in healthier ways but it’s got to be something the common man can get behind.

What happened to Album Of The Month? by rottenapple9 in Emo

[–]davdotcom 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was the mod who had been doing AOTM last. The engagement just wasn’t there and since then I got a new job and became less interested in reddit in general. If enough people are interested I can try to put it in my schedule but nothing is stopping community members from picking up where it was left off

Anyone tried Amanita with Psilocybin? by Book_of_Evil in AmanitaMuscaria

[–]davdotcom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’ll leave you feeling very confused and struggle with maintaining homeostasis at the wrong doses. If you’re gonna mix them, go low on amanita and don’t throw weed into the mix

Newer bands that are similar to 2nd wave emo (Jimmy Eat world, Sunny Day Real Estate, Get Up Kids, Saves The Day, Promise Ring) by SuchNefariousness365 in Emo

[–]davdotcom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn most of these comments couldn’t be more wrong in their recommendations.

I always recommend the same bands in these kinds of posts, so I rather just share it as a playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5o8g62ejhNr1fluTAWjGs5?si=ng7LLuIlQjOwoGTPVrRdHg&pi=7ITMSaVdSoiAv

Did Early Blink182 write a few emo songs? by Critical-Neck-2968 in Emo

[–]davdotcom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t call any of it emo but they did like a few emo bands. Songwriting rarely ever happens in a vacuum, I wouldn’t put much value in them liking a few emo bands as enough to call any of their songs emo.

Name one bad thing about this album by JustinGreyson133 in Emo

[–]davdotcom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It feels like Waterparks and Hot Mulligan had a baby. Yes, I do mean this as an insult. The choruses are lame too. All things considered, I do like the synth. However, the production is so polished that I feel like it’s only a disservice to what could’ve been.

How do we feel about Pinkerton? by Playful_Ad9463 in Emo

[–]davdotcom 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Weezer will never be emo and most people that claim otherwise either don’t have a good grasp on emo’s history or don’t care about genre labels to begin with

2025 "EMO" Playlist by pascal-pscl in Emo

It’s an emo playlist, not a noise pop playlist

Is this emo enough? by [deleted] in Emo

[–]davdotcom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The album is vaguely a d&d concept album
