I want to start a band but I really can't decide on which direction/genre to go between those 2:
Pop punk/ pop rock like
> Paramore - Riot
> Paramore - Self titled
Heavier pop rock/alt rock borderline metal like
> bring me the horizon - That's the spirit
> bring me the horizon - Sempiternal
What style do you think has the most potential in at the moment? I basically really like Paramore and the new stuff by BMTH but I just can't decide on which way to go between those two.
I feel like paramore-like pop rock is becoming irrelevant and people are tired of it
Spontaneously switch between styles mid-song like a real pro.
protip:
good music never becomes irrelevant

You shouldn't start a band if your main focus is "what will make the most money and get me the most attention"
Please include photo of alt album cover and what album it is. I'll start
The Humble Cannons Sessions box set
You know the drill /mu/
carly rae and grimes
grimes and ariel pink
ariel pink and frank black
I'm not too crazy about anything they released after Minutes to Midnight, but I always thought the two albums in pic related were phenomenal.
people hate popular things
Hybrid Theory was the first CD I ever owned. I used to listen to that shit nonstop while reading Harry Potter in elementary school. That CD will always have a place in my heart. Papercut will always be their best song.
Still, shit's edgy as fuck. And I don't even like using that term much.

A 10/10, how is this not your AOTY? Also their whole discography is pretty good. These guys are talented.
>revival revival
You're a sad case, OP
>>69329424
a true lesson in the art of the reiteration and reinvention of a whole buncha "woooo/whoaaa" variations on top of relentless weed soaked riffage even if it's a revival of sorts, it's fuckin phenomenal
they're just a poor imitation of the Brian Jonestown Massacre
clipping makes a space rap record no one gives a shit
Danny Brown makes an "experimental" hip hop record and everyone loses their shit
clipping > Danny Brown
Literally how can I be expected to give them another chance after that who's fucking tonight song? You don't just come back from that shit.
>>69329400
sorry OP theyre both kind of bad in a way. i like XXX from danny but atrocity exhibition was a real let down and clipping has struggled to put out a release that wasnt full of filler and underdeveloped songwriting
even their EPs are hard to sludge through
>>69329481
so whats your hhaoty
how can we live in these nice houses or apartments browsing /mu/ when there are musicians like us out there living in the cold and struggling day to day just to survive? I bet they're good musicians too, but they are poverty ridden and sell their bodies on the streets for guitar strings and synth repairs.
Absolute sad this holiday season.
I snapped this photo of these two in Baltimore and bought them a couple cheesburgers when I saw them trying to sell his guitar to pawn shops on the street.
she was shaking and talking about 'depersonalization' or whatever that is, and she said she misses 2006.
I'm a musician, and I'm starving right now.

>how can we live in these nice houses or apartments
my apartment is not nice...
>>69329399
I live in a nice apartment and have a good job which enables me to play in a post-rock side project. Burnout local hipsters at our shows tend to like us more than the 'lifers' who only have music.
It's possible to be normal and still write/play music. It just requires discipline.
>yfw the US Government is in the process of lobotomizing Kanye
Where you like him or hate him, he is being forced against his will as an artist to fall in line with an unknown agenda. We shouldn't tolerate this shit.
I like the /x/ /pol/ /mu/ crossover genre, but he's legit going to become the next president.
Boring
