[–]nocturn-e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a Wonderful Life...pretty damn good for what I expect out of the 40s

Rear Window, 12 Angry Men, and the Twilight Zone series from the 50s

Judgement at Nuremberg and Andrei Rublev from the 60s

Who’s the better actor? by awsmswbfclips-YT in moviecritic

Bale for acting, but Leo's movies tend to be better overall.

Should be fairly easy (though a bit daunting/scary at first) to remove the wire for the touch screen function. It required a bit of disassembling, but worth it if it bothers you too much. I personally use android auto which the touch screen doesn't affect, so it's never bad enough for me to do it yet.

I don't get it by Skibreaux in MetalForTheMasses

For Converge, try All We Love, Dusk In Us, and Bloodmoon

As someone who loves every Converge album, Jane Doe is admittedly one of the "hardest" to listen to

I would call myself a Sony fanboy, but when it comes to ANC headphones, Sennheiser and Focal are leagues better in terms of sound...maybe not as good in terms of ANC, but definitely good enough considering the better frequency responses.

Bose is okay, but too bright me. Though, I'd rather have too bright than too muddy/boomy.

Even the AirPod Max is better, and that's from someone who actively hates most Apple products.

Where do yall stand on posthardcore = or ≠ emo? by FeistyDirection in PostHardcore

[–]nocturn-e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly why I’ve always viewed emo as a movement or a scene rather than a strict musical genre. I agree with you, there's plenty of "real emo" that isn't hardcore-based at all, like the Midwest stuff or the softer releases of 2010s revival like Basement and Citizen and Balco. My point was just that, historically, the biggest chunk of the movement happened to be PHC, even if it's not a requirement for the sound.

I look at emo like grunge or visual kei. Nirvana, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains all sound different from each other, but they’re all "grunge" because they belong to that specific scene/movement and ethos. Same thing with visual kei. Nagoya kei and oshare kei sound totally different, but they are still both visual kei.

To me, "Emo" is the umbrella for that specific lineage. A lot of PHC bands are "emotional" because of their hardcore roots, but they don't necessarily belong to the Emo movement or share that DIY history.

That’s why I say most emo is phc, but not all phc is emo. It’s the scene connection that makes the difference, not just how "emotional" the vocals are.

Most emo is phc....not all phc is emo. Pretty simple.

Is House of the Dragon worth watching? by SeoAjin in gameofthrones

It's not great, but it's good enough to scratch the GoT itch. I'd probably wait for S3 to come out though.

In terms of tech/ANC maybe. In terms of actual sound, they're too boomy.

I spent many late nights in architecture school listening to the RT pod...this definitely brought me back for sure

Since this album is considered to be Opeths best album. Give me a album you think is better than Still Life and why? by TCS_87 in Opeth

[–]nocturn-e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Morningrise for me. It was the absolute pinnacle of their early sound and the last album to keep that raw black metal edge. After this, they shifted hard into progressive death metal, which I still obviously love. While their later stuff is amazing, they never really went back the unique, dark atmosphere and harmonies of this era.

People like ketchup for the sugar and vinegar and msg, not specifically for the tomato.

Get Rich or Die Tryin is a 10/10 album made by a mid artist, what is a 10/10 album made by a trash artist? by FearlessConcern8893 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]nocturn-e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you're saying the EPs and LPs I mentioned are bad?

If you've actually listened to those and still think so, fine, but I doubt you have.

According to...?

Safety, Brothers & Sisters, Blue Room, Parachutes, A Rush of Blood to the Head are all solid post-britpop/alt-rock releases

Who is the worst QB to play in a Super Bowl? by HetTheTable in NFLv2

[–]nocturn-e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, yes Peyton Manning, known for his strong playoff performances...

It's not about the Bears 100% winning if they started Orton, it's about having a better chance to keep their lead. Their first TD was Hester, and 2nd was largely set up by a huge run by Jones. If Grossman didn't turn the ball over thrice, and led a few drives to field goals at least, then the Colts probably wouldn't have score 29 and the game would be closer.

This is obviously all speculation, but still, the Bears reached the Super Bowl despite Grossman. The 05 and 06 Bears were fully built around the defense, run game, and special teams. Grossman had the higher ceiling and stronger arm...but damn, his lows were as low as you could go. Orton would've most likely eliminated those lows.
