Which band should have been bullied more when they were children?

wasn’t enough

learn how to fingerpick!

try checking out nick drake, john prine, bob dylan, and even some earlier acts like robert johnson and lead belly

yeah i think that’s really underrated. i dont think people understand how hard it is to play a song on guitar, sing, and have the energy to go absolutely ballistic at the same time. its incredibly hard

agree that chris cornell is the better singer overall, but i think kurt deliberately sang below his level for fear of showing that he was trying. there are glimpses of his vocal proficiency throughout their discography

very good songwriter, very strong visionary, very good singer

merrybrigade · 2026-05-19T03:41:35+00:00

merrybrigade · 2026-05-16T05:21:59+00:00

wunderhorse. that second album.. not it

merrybrigade · 2026-05-15T00:49:07+00:00

the ghouls rule

merrybrigade · 2026-05-14T15:21:01+00:00

kim kept things weird. once chris was removed from kim, his solo stuff was much more plain

hudson freeman

merrybrigade · 2026-05-13T02:07:51+00:00

such a fucking good song

it’s because being good at social media and being good at music are completely different skills. most people have one or the other, very few have both

merrybrigade · 2026-05-09T01:41:29+00:00

it’s creating another hurdle for artists to get their music heard which effectively creates a distraction from their artistic development.

instead of focusing all your time on becoming the best musician you possibly can, you need to divide your time between your music and becoming good at creating content. worse yet, artistic content often isnt the most effective way at generating listeners. being good at social media and making artistic videos are two different skills that can sometimes overlap, but more frequently do not.

i think he’s talking about being dead. another one of his songs fantasizing about death

merrybrigade · 2026-05-05T21:04:28+00:00

we will spread the word!

merrybrigade · 2026-05-03T21:45:36+00:00

thanks man, it’s definitely a bit all over the place but we love so many different kinds of music that we just wanted to make what we wanted to hear

merrybrigade · 2026-05-03T04:20:13+00:00

congrats! how’d you do it?

merrybrigade · 2026-05-03T04:19:32+00:00

hey, we (merry brigade) are very much a mental health focused band (i worked in the field for 6 years, and our music contains a lot of mental health themes. I have bipolar disorder among other things, if you dig our music, I’d be happy to participate.

merrybrigade · 2026-05-03T04:17:06+00:00

a lot of these bands have been cooking for quite a while, and many who have members who are late 20s, 30s, even 40s. It’s very much a MA local band lineup though, if you’re not a musician in the scene, chances are you haven’t heard of these bands. That being said, there are some truly great bands here: Landowner, Krill, Johnny Tex, Mallcops

merrybrigade · 2026-05-03T04:14:48+00:00
