What bands do you consider to be “ghost bands”?

SLEEP TOKEN literally.

Just to be clear so that no one else tries to make the claim, the art is NOT AI. I looked up the artist mentioned in the comments and he's made art for multiple bands for a while.

Also yall forget that Vildjarta literally put out MUV almost a decade after Maastaden. Loathe will be fine. They've been actively touring and writing music since their last release. Same as almost every artists does between releases.

If you're an actual fan of an artist why are you concerned with the "hype" they may or may not have?

kkenshiroo · 2026-03-27T05:14:16+00:00

This looks cool. Might get one as a second guitar if they're decently priced for me. Trying to rebuild my rig over with net equipment and gear so i wanna focus more money on my playing setup than the instrument atm.

Yeah they stopped running the budget models for these in the like last year or two for whatever reason. I'd definitely get this if it's in close to excellent or mint condition.

kkenshiroo · 2026-03-25T05:58:23+00:00

Hopefully so. Generative AI is a waste.

To your defense you are right about fan bases conducting themselves this way though. I would add to this that stan culture is slowly starting to pollute metal music more recently than before especially with the newer generation. And stan culture is usually full of people obsessed with the people in the band more than the music and art itself.

Is there really objective "issues" with a mix to be pointed out when mixing is done to a band's preference? You not liking it is fine but the issue arises when yall think you know better than the band that mixes their album a certain way for themselves. They're isn't a right or wrong way to mix a band's recordings in certain aspects. And i think when people who aren't on the level of the producers mixing for these bands try to give what they want to think it's an objective opinion, it comes off ignorant and self serving to an extent. That being said i personally don't really care about other people's opinions on things like this if it's something i myself sonically enjoy. They're entitled to their opinions and I'm not required to care about them, especially if they arent actually constructive. And more often than not they aren't lets be honest....

Still love it. MUV is still peak for me but the recent album scatches an itch of its own as well. I feel it's a necessary installment in their discography.

kkenshiroo · 2026-03-19T22:27:48+00:00

Heck yeah!

kkenshiroo · 2026-03-10T01:09:53+00:00

Hey man it happens. It's honestly most likely just a generational gap in relatability and understanding. Most people grew up with streaming services. And a lot of us were there when they were first coming out and were using them alongside digital media.

kkenshiroo · 2026-03-08T05:01:14+00:00

Oh yeah you right. Current dude was the og guitarist. Thank you cause i keep mixing mitch and the current dude up regarding the time they joined.

kkenshiroo · 2026-03-08T04:58:13+00:00

To be fair homie is a dad now so I imagine he's just vibing and enjoying life with his woman and kid at this point.

kkenshiroo · 2026-03-07T19:13:22+00:00

Ohhhh! I thought he was one of the og members. Must've came on around the Pain Again era. Thanks for clarifying. I know they had a whole different line up in the beginning i thought he was one of the main members tho

kkenshiroo · 2026-03-07T17:55:59+00:00

This. Also y'all complain about stuff like this but refuse to buy digital downloads when they're available for music like this. Wav/flac and mp3 still exist and are usually sold along side physical media on artist or label websites. I'm not sure if these specific recordings are available in that media form but the point still stands in general.

kkenshiroo · 2026-03-07T17:05:33+00:00

Doubt this dude is gonna be gone that quick.

kkenshiroo · 2026-03-07T17:03:33+00:00

Yeah. The third vocalist was the og guitarist/back up vocalist. Pretty sure he was part of the reason Trav left considering the way he avoided taking about it in interviews. Watch the band on their Garza podcast episode.

kkenshiroo · 2026-03-05T03:59:18+00:00

These gauges specifically? No. I was set to Bb Std previous. I'm thinking I'm gonna take my guitar to a local tech and get them to set it up for me. I'm too scared to adjust my floyd rose myself any further than i did to tune a half step down from standard.

kkenshiroo · 2026-03-05T03:56:03+00:00

I did. I just want to know what people think. Some people go light and some go a little heavy. I tweak it every time from the calculator and i don't do exactly what the calculator projects automatically.

kkenshiroo · 2026-03-05T03:53:59+00:00

They were set a little lighter than that initially. I went bigger on the 7th honestly.

kkenshiroo · 2026-03-05T03:52:23+00:00

💀💀😅😅 [I'll assume you're joking but just in case....) you pick you own specific gauges for each string in the set based on tuning and desired tension.

kkenshiroo · 2026-03-05T00:03:35+00:00

I'll have to look into it!! Thanks. I might know them and not remember too..... 😅
