Re: Stop being afraid of your gear
Don't tell me how to live my life. I'll be afraid as long as I prefer. Good day.

Just a suggestion, but if you want to have fun hanging out on ILF, I suggest you work on two things: 1) a thicker skin, and 2) a bigger sense of humor. Both of those things go a long way around here.

Re: Stop being afraid of your gear
Oof. I actually saw Deafheaven at some point, and the whole band just looked bored the whole show, except the singer who kept jumping around pointing his fingers at his own head like they were a gun. It was single-handedly the most embarassing performance I've ever witnessed. I've never heard them recorded, but I remember being surprised to hear people calling them "black metal". I would've said embarassing nu-metal revival, based on the show.

I agree. I don't think this thread has turned out the way Woolworm expected, but it sure is entertaining.jrfox92 wrote:I'm glad we have a nice blast of weird shit going on in ILF to finish off 2020.

They are post-skramz alt rock with vocals that has black metal / skramz hybrid.Benn Roe wrote:Oof.

Anyway, the point is, so many fucking dorks on this site were making fun of their combo of genres and their dress sense. How fucking sad and pathetic. Like dressing like a weirdo satanist goth isn't even more embarrassing and sad than dressing like a normal person. Falling for a bunch of dorks elitist nerds who are like "iz not real black metal duuuuuuh". Fucking nerds.
Atleast thegearpage isn't full of fucking dorks like ILF.

Re: Stop being afraid of your gear
noooo comeon stay you're funny. and trying to find a forum dedicated to musical gear without dorks is impossible you know thats true. TGP is just as much dorks as ILF but they are just more simpsons-comic-book-guy about itWoolworm wrote:They are post-skramz alt rock with vocals that has black metal / skramz hybrid.Benn Roe wrote:Oof.

Re: Stop being afraid of your gear
will you stay if i say i think deafheaven are ok? havent heard anything after sunbather but that album was kinda cool when it came out, tho i was in high school then so take that how you want. i just understand less and less what's post rock and shoegaze about them.
All black metal, however, is extremely dorky
