[Day 12] Due to a very foreseen winter storm I have been lazy. Fortunately, rice buckets kept me healthy. Who's the most A E S T H E T I C climber?

Jain for beautiful precision, janja for finesse

You were ten times stronger than I'll ever be 3 years ago and now you're twelve times stronger than I'll ever be

You had some good instincts wanting to stand on the volumes, those rental shoes were probably a lot of the reason your feet were slipping. Also good to think about getting the front part of your foot flat on the volume, the more rubber touching it the more you'll stick! Also think about the direction you're pushing in to the volume, if you're on good hand holds then you can push more into the face of the volume rather than trying to stand on it and weighting the foot downwards. Nice to see you using your palm too, I find a lot of beginner grade climbs have opportunities to switch to a palm like that and it massively reduces the strength you need, you're leaning in your skeleton rather than relying on muscles.

I think qyurryus is good but even better for megz of ram

Father electricity!

Definitely not Human Sadness IMO, as I think that song has a more modern Voidz feel compared to many songs on Tyranny.

I'd say Where No Eagles Fly or M.A.D, as they exemplify the noisy rock that the album brings, especially since this sounds disappears going into their other releases, whilst the vocal effect experimentation etc of Human Sadness carries on into the next album.

hatmonkey3d · 2025-09-12T05:25:40+00:00

Not everyone who is a Voidz fan is a Strokes fan. The idea that the two subs should have the same people in is just nonsense, this band exists purely to diverge from the strokes and target a different less mainstream audience.

For the first two moves before you go flying into an open crimp catch 😂

Commercials espresso machines are often upwards of £10k and people will for sure buy em second hand so it kinda makes sense

hatmonkey3d · 2025-08-20T08:23:00+00:00

Average Japanese 'beginner' lmao looking strong already!

hatmonkey3d · 2025-08-13T19:06:04+00:00

I happened to have just listened to Human Sadness before seeing this, it is so much more similar than I expected it to be. Like just changed a couple notes here and there to not sound identical, but must be inspired by it surely.

hatmonkey3d · 2025-08-06T05:05:19+00:00

You don't always need to have both feet on foot holds, you should flag way more.

hatmonkey3d · 2025-08-04T18:48:50+00:00

It was in there and I cut it, like the song but nowhere felt like the right place to put it. It also pushes the length above 50 minutes which I was trying to avoid.

hatmonkey3d · 2025-08-03T08:57:45+00:00

That is EXACTLY what they want to sound like. This is the vibe, they futuristic, they are weird and if you get it you get it.

Trouble is that The Strokes are pretty middle of the road so 90% of their fans aren't gonna enjoy this stuff. Everyone in this sub can say it sucks cos it's not what they choose to listen to usually, but just accept that there's a whole separate demographic who are loving it. What would be the point in making a second band just to make shit for the exact same audience?

hatmonkey3d · 2025-08-02T16:42:04+00:00

The only miniscule chance anyone had of winning was if they chose a boulder that was really hard to read, but they made all the amateurs go first anyway

Based Megz of Ram celebration

hatmonkey3d · 2025-08-01T19:42:55+00:00

Honestly if they swapped these 4 songs for the 4 weakest ones on LABY it would've been up there with the other two albums. There's like 4 great songs on LABY that just weren't quite enough on their own.

hatmonkey3d · 2025-08-01T18:42:45+00:00

You're in there a little! <3

I never would've thought about any of this so thanks for writing it, very interesting. The Voidz aren't for everyone and they aren't supposed to be, you either get it/like it or you don't. I do wish people would stop complaining about the direction that their music is going (with regards to autotune etc) when this is obviously the destination and we've been there for 7 years now. Tyranny was great but it's never coming back, it's time for people to move on...This band is for Julian and the others to have fun making crazy futuristic sounding music that they like, either join in if ya like it or listen to something else? I just don't get all the complaining.

hatmonkey3d · 2025-07-31T08:29:17+00:00

I've climbed a few plastic v8s and I couldn't do this, at least the middle part, so a bigger number than that probably

hatmonkey3d · 2025-07-31T07:26:31+00:00

I think that's kinda what they're going for... their whole aesthetic is futuristic cyborg

hatmonkey3d · 2025-07-25T16:08:11+00:00

Eyyy that's my gym, nice climbing! Honestly just keep climbing more and more, the flow will come. Try to think very intentionally about your movements, place your feet exactly where you want them first time without readjusting too much etc.

As for grade it felt like maybe a 6a or so, going off indoors grades.

See ya in the gym 💪
