So is this a second pressing, or a second repress? 🤨

Nice

Single sounds great. Highly promising. 🤘

Come on… that story Derek told was funny whether you like that song or not!

Putting my sarcastic ego aside, yes the story was funny. 😆

The story wasn't what I got a salty taco about, it was the "this genre is a joke" comment. lol

That wasn't my scene either, I'm just tired of the hateful attitudes some people have towards various genres.

For what it's worth, Bodies was accompanied by SOAD's Chop Suey! and Disturbed's Down With the Sickness during his temper tantrum.  He must've got his hands on a burned CD at school, I'd guess.  I like to imagine that he traded a Lunchables for it or something.

My generation's version of this was "Bad Habit" by The Offspring and we taped it off the radio. Doesn't have the same effect when the good parts are censored. 😠😄

Would much rather see someone I’m actually  interested in play to 59 people in some shithole with no stage.

I enjoy the spectacle and crowd energy though. If those 59 people (or at least a good handful of them) are super into it and moving around, that would be fun.

I'm suggesting that being "devoted" to any specific genre is ridiculous in 2021. Go back to high school with that narrow-minded "my genre can beat up your genre" line of thinking. People can listen to whatever the heck they want. Sorry if you can't see it that way.

If we're gonna make fun of teenage me, at least get it right, Mr Bigot.

also, I saw Korn with Slipknot a handful of years ago bc it was reasonably priced and in my city… so why not?

I saw Korn & Rob Zombie at one of the few metal shows I went to with a few band-mates at the time. Great show! 🤘

Calling someone pretentious because they're making fun of Nu Metal is like calling someone who uses toilet paper a neat freak.

My genre can beat up your genre.

Seriously, are we still genre shaming in 2021 after the lessons society is learning about bigotry? 🤷‍♂️

Recognizing that nu metal is legitimately a [jokes aside, real world] soundtrack for preteen angst is hardly a staple of being cool.  Just FYI.

 

Neither is coming across like a pretentious dbag, but that's not stopping us now, is it!

Me in about 5 years at the local country club karaoke:

Everyone is a capitalist until they miss out on their preferred variant.

NOFX / Fat Wreck  also charge people $25 for the privilege of driving to or living near San Francisco for 7"s that would normally cost $6-7. So pick your poison. 🤷‍♂️

Snagged a deluxe swirl. One of the better up & coming punk bands from Australia. Don't miss this one!

I may find myself listening to less FWC / TBR these days, but at least they know how to do a bundle. 🤘

And some people want to give the government more power... 😆

I'm waiting for the inevitable $100 vinyl w/ zippo lighter bundle.

Did Tom just pull a Tyler Durdan on us? 😆
