ATDI breaking up was a mistake

honest serious question, how is it that this website has so accurately captured the mind set of a typical reddit user? besides their obvious popularity there, there's just something about these bands that feels undeniably reddit, it's such a weird thing

when you have shitheads from reddit invading the site on like 15 different boards, you eventually learn their ways in some respects.

>>68265858
Queen

>>68266104
this

regardless of what you think of them there is not a more reddit band out there

>>68265858
Red Hot Chili Peppers

Literally every normie I talk to says it's their favorite rock band.

>>68265858
Gorillaz
Muse

>>68266008
They are pretty much the perfect border between /mu/ and reddit, but they are more /mu/.

>>68265897
>>68265858
These two are great picks.

I agree with you about Nirvana, however.

What's reddit-y about Coheed & Cambria?

>>68267148
>Their musical talent was so good, it actually breached pop rock shit to indie eccentric rockin again like some weird black hole.

Don't get me wrong, I fucking love Tool, but Danny Carey really is the backbone of virtuosity for that band. All of the members have a great sense of rhythm and follow Carey really well, but aside from how well they can play within the time signatures, the bass and guitar parts aren't at all intricate. I always hear about how Tool's basslines are other worldly but I imagine that must always be coming from some amateur high school bassist. Granted, they play only what's necessary, so I guess they do in a sense possess a skill which would do well in the hands of many bands. Maynard's voice was definitely a force in their heyday, though.

>>68267408
>TMV >>> ATDI
>Cedric's vocals are unbearable in ATDI.
Objectively wrong. The aggression in ATDI shits all over the tea kettle falsetto he had to resort to at the end of TMV.

>>68266011
Redditors use self expression as a way of projecting their insecurities. They want to look cool and different but only in the most nondescript and inoffensive way possible.

These bands are just the level of "different" and "edgy" that a 20 year old hipster can pride himself in knowing about but not actually offend anyone's tastes or opinions

Bands like Nickelback and Coldplay suck, these esteemed consumers of the arts listen to The Arctic Monkeys and Pearl Jam

Any metal fan would laugh at you if you called them metal. Coheed and Cambria is pop punk.

maybe if you've only heard either a few hits from their peak or their recent singles

>>68267604

>Coheed and Cambria is pop punk

lol

>>68267604
I wouldn't call them pop-punk but otherwise I agree. That doesn't stop Reddit from lumping them in with Dream Theater and the like, though.

>>68267408
Eh, he has his strengths in ATDI and almost as much flexibility as in TMV. There were times listening to ATDI record where I didn't even know it was him at first.

Song possibly not related, it's just one of my favorite ATDI vocal performances outside of Enfilade.

it's probably the scifi (?) concept of their lyrics. i have no clue what the concept is, i only listened to no world for tomorrow, it feels like iron maiden worship with a vocalist who's prone to michael jackson-isms but it's pretty great all the same
to be reddit basically means to be too genuine in humor or ambition
to be 4chan would be to hide behind too many layers of irony and cynicism, i guess

>>68270151
>"I KILL COPS FOR FUN BIX NOOD"
It's pretty interesting because Killer Mike's father is a retired Police Officer.

I think it's pretty cool a while back he praised a really nice cop in Arkansas who has an instagram account where he is friendly with the
children of his area.

http://hiphopdx.com/news/id.33808/title.killer-mike-applauds-arkansas-cop

I think Killer Mike would be devastated if his music were taken the wrong way and inspired someone to murder the police, obviously one's artistic work shouldn't be taken literal. Ice T certainly doesn't want you to be a Cop Killer.

It really isn't insane at all, though. Have you ever tried learning a Tool song? The parts are dead simple, the timing is the only thing a moderate level player would have any trouble with. Other than that, no fancy fretwork at all. They play it pretty straight.

So... what is a "reddit" band?
From what I've gathered, a reddit band is
>>68265858
not quite Rock 'n' Roll
>>68265897
Vocal in their political opinion(s)
>>68266008
Experimental but hugely popular
>>68267444
playing the "best buddy" card

And I guess, most importantly, they're all "major label-indy".

Meh, be thankful you weren't alive in the late 90s, boys.
What you're looking for is "post-grunge". "Post-Grunge" was reddit before there was reddit. Only that nowadays, thankfully, people have developed a certain awareness of that genre's insufferable cheesiness.

>>68270700
>>68272156
>>68266927
So at this point does redditcore just mean "anything that's popular that I think is overrated"? Why would you want to categorize an artist based on their fanbase?

The bass in tool songs gets overrated really hard cos it's very beautiful but it's quite easy to play. Adam Jones is either insanely overrated or insanely underrated depending on where you're looking. I've seen some people call him the best metal guitarist of all time which is objectively wrong, but the majority of people sleep on him entirely and he IS a very good guitarist. He's not a virtuoso, no, but he does some really creative and really cool stuff while still remaining incredibly listenable and that's very impressive.

Carey is far and away the best musician out of them though, possibly my favourite drummer ever and a top 5 all time candidate. Maynard had some pipes but god he couldn't write lyrics for shit

Queen, Muse and Tool
