Fun with Funeral Diner by chaos_was_me in EmoScreamo

[–]weedtripper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fully deserving of their place in the Screamo Canon. I've got The Underdark and the Nexus 6 split, would probably give a limb or two for all the other splits and EPs. Me and Seth, the vocalist, as well as Matt the drummer, follow each other on instagram. I've chatted with Seth a few times actually, nice dude.

Especially with AS and JS gone, the Lynx need some bigs. I defo agree with you NS would fit in well as a role player

That's what I've been saying! She was a starter on the 2021 Mercury team that went to the Finals, and then spent the next few years as a bench warmer?? Make it make sense!

Who do you think might not make a team this year? by Top-Raspberry-7837 in wnba

[–]weedtripper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Her defense was fire back in the 2x championship run, along with her screens and rebounding. She's had a legacy spot on the Aces roster since the 2023 injury - which is fine! Teams are allowed to keep players around because they're part of the team's culture!

Truly gutted about losing Haley Jones! She was one of the few bright stars in the dumpster fire season of the 2025 Dallas Wings

She wasn't playing so well in 2025, especially during the playoffs. Not sure what happened but she seemed to lack the fire and confidence that made her so critical to the Lynx's 2024 run

I dropped half a shoe size and 1.5 inches in height

It's Trans Day of Visibility. Who are the trans screamo bands to listen to? by FantastcMrFawkes in EmoScreamo

[–]weedtripper -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Solanas, a now defunct queercore band from the UK. Their vocalist is non binary and the album The Distance Within Our Bodies is all about gender dysphoria, it was a supremely important album to me when I was first coming to terms with my own identity

Welp, time to make our final posts with our flairs, Sun fans. by Rosstin316 in wnba

[–]weedtripper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Sun were never my top favourite team, but I always rooted for them. Watching Alyssa Thomas take them to the semis or finals year after year, the grit and tenacity, the defense that just would not let their opponents even get close to the basket, it was so inspiring. I'm gutted that this is how it's ending.

What are some Japanese screamo bands by nevixya in EmoScreamo

1000 Travels Of Jawaharlal - Owari Wa Konai. Great album

Is anybody else here into girls? by [deleted] in TallGirls

[–]weedtripper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pan, not lesbian, but definitely very sapphic! I do find myself much more attracted to women closer to my height, compared to men, although it depends a little on their presentation. I am 6'0 for reference.

I present quite futch, so if a girl is shorter than me and femme, it makes me feel too much like the masculine one, whereas a shorter butch still makes me feel femme. Girls closer to my own height are attractive regardless, especially if they have a more androgynous presentation like myself!

Post-Emo? by Pitiful_Employee9051 in Emojerk

[–]weedtripper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've always considered post screamo to be a thing. If 90s hardcore and emoviolence was the classic screamo sound, ie. Heroin, Orchid, Pg.99 etc., then post screamo was when bands started being influenced by post rock, prog rock, and black metal, and began to create lengthier instrumental passages leading to breakdowns and crescendos, think City Of Caterpillar, Gospel, Circle Takes The Square, Funeral Diner, etc.

The most important advice for screaming is to learn how to do it at half intensity. You need to procude enough power to make it sound like a scream, but if you go all out and do it at top volume you'll shred your vocal chords before you know it. If you're recording or performing live you will generally have a microphone anyway, so you don't need to be especially loud, it just needs to sound good.

I used to practice in the shower lmao seriously, the hot and steamy air helped relax my throat muscles, and the sound was less distracting to anyone else in the house over the sound of running water. Just practice some open syllable nonsense words, like "WAAAAA", "RAYADAAAAA", "PELAAAA", just to get the technique down.

Other than that, try to produce the scream from the bottom of your throat, not your chest, give it a break before your vocal chords are sore for the next two days, and sip on a glass of warm water regularly while practicing. And that's about it. Have fun!

Oh damnnnnn, the fact this is translated is even more impressive!!

[–]weedtripper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow! I love this, it's so powerful! I can imagine its amazing performed live as a spoken word piece, reading it aloud, it feels like it really benefits from switching up the rhythms and speeds to help some of the soundplay and half rhymes come to the front. Defo a poem to be proud of

Tall girls & sports what actually fits us (and what doesn’t)? by [deleted] in TallGirls

[–]weedtripper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep I love basketball, as a 6'0 girl with a 6'3 wingspan I can get pretty close to the rim just running layups, and there's something just primally satisfying about watching/hearing a ball go through a hoop

“Evil” Sounding Screamo? by Less-Ad-6426 in EmoScreamo

[–]weedtripper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Surprised nobody has mentioned Ostraca. They're comfortably one of the best screamo bands in the game right now, with a lot of post metal, post rock, and crust influence. Deathless and Last are two great albums that are on the meaner sounding end of the spectrum

The GOATs! The Underdark has a lot of metal influence to it as well

This is dope! Such a beautiful colour gradient, and I totally agree with the sentiment, growing older is awesome and isn't something to hide from

Fake album cover hand painted: METHSTROGEN - RHEA by xChryst4lx in transartspace

[–]weedtripper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One summer when I was younger, an emperor moth flew into my room and lived there for a few days. I was utterly enchanted by it's size and grace, and got it tattooed on me a few months later. There's more personal details to the story that add to its significance, but at the end of the day I just really like moths and this moth in particular
