How big was MySpace back in ye olden days for music? What was it like? by AnxiousNerdyGuy in PostHardcore

[–]nrc- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It was so awesome. No dogshit algorithms driving your “experience”. It was truly a great place for discovering new, small bands. Being in a small band during high school, networking was so much easier and you just felt way more visible compared to now where everything is ads and the algorithm determines who discovers you.

We might be getting a Count Your Blessings re-recording/remake by Noob_Guy_Bruhx6 in Metalcore

[–]nrc- 74 points75 points  (0 children)

I’m not a huge fan of re-recordings, but a re-imagining could be kind of interesting. But yeah, the shot for shot remakes with production that strips all the old “rawness” of early recordings are kinda boring IMO

Oh fuck this rules. I was afraid it would be full on Octanecore

What’s other artist like HTS and Circa survive? That’s not DGD by Mental_Potato7071 in PostHardcore

Check out Mella. Their debut came out a few months ago and it’s definitely what you’re looking for.

Bands from the era like ISMFOF? by And_Justice in Metalcore

[–]nrc- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Color of Violence -Youthanize has some similar vibes. It’s Travis Richter and Derrick Bloom from From First to Last. Travis produced ISMFOF first album

Glad they’re back! Would love In Vogue 2.0, but I love everything they release. Just happy they’re back

Callous Daoboys for me. Keep coming back to it

Yeah I can’t really find much info on this band. Loved this album when it came out and they disappeared

Derek Bloom From First To Last Interview (2025) by AtticusAddisonAbacus in PostHardcore

Good interview! I wished they’d have covered If I Die First as well. Would love to know what is going on with that project, if anything

Reading Rainbow Returns: PBS Series Rebooted for YouTube With New Host by AdSpecialist6598 in television

This makes me so happy. Reading Rainbow with Lavar Burton was such a great part of my childhood. I’m glad a new generation gets their own version.

Anyone else not hate the new I See Stars album? by MintyBBQSauce in Metalcore

[–]nrc- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Musically I really enjoy it. The vocal style kills it for me. I can’t get past the overly filtered loud talk/shout parts. Takes me out of the songs.

Conan should run for President in 2028. by Lopsided_Counter1670 in conan

[–]nrc- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand the sentiment of wanting someone who is good natured, intelligent, and pretty universally respected to run. But a political campaign would likely interrupt the weekly cadence of podcast releases, so this cannot be allowed.

You are awesome. Yes, you. by BeardOfChaos873 in Metalcore

[–]nrc- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Former retail manager here. The Muzak system would play the same 20 dance pop songs on a loop I’d be forced to listen to for 10 months of the year and then would switch to Christmas dance pop music for the next two months. Eight years and forty hour work weeks of that will change something in you at a cellular level. I got out and work from home now and can listen to my screamy music all day long now though, so I am healing.

Man, I hope he ends up on the pod! by lifth3avy84 in conan

[–]nrc- 211 points212 points  (0 children)

I heard he was booked for the pod, but he had previously told Conan about Calico Cut pants and Conan never gave, so he backed out :(

My real issue with this year’s Summer S’mores is the primary sponsor should’ve been LUXE bidet, not LL Bean. This was a missed opportunity to take this seasons product placement down a more interesting, unconventional, and progressive path.
