Code Orange dropped their new record, Forever, today. I know there's about a 0.0001% chance of anyone on this website being interested, but it's a banger and should be checked out.

FFO: eerie, doomy, sludge-influenced hardcore

I got the Purple Rain 3CD + 1 DVD special edition the other day. I still have not watched the DVD yet but the from the vault CD has some good ones on there from the key 1983-84 time frame. I wish they could have added the non-Prince music from the movie as well but that's another release I suppose.

Did anyone else get it?

Would you like to see any other Prince CDs get this kind of treatment - like Sign 'O' the Times for instance?

I've heard some of the stuff from the deluxe edition release and liked it. I picked up Purple Rain on vinyl when I was in Los Angeles and the deluxe edition was announced like literally a week after, so that was bad luck. I haven't watched the movie in a little while though.

I've been listing to Wynona's Big Brown Beaver by Primus for the last two days straight.

What do y'all consider the age a song has to be for it to be classic rock. My brother says 10 years.

God no. 25 years at least.

Who else likes Melanie Martinez?

I've been a fan ever since her appearance on The Voice,  but in the past 2 or so weeks I've really been listening to her a lot.

She's weird, her fans are weird, her music is pedestrian

I know most of ya'll don't really share my musical tastes, but I have a podcast in which I discuss metalcore, post-hardcore, and other related music news and reviews, which can be found here (also on Spotify and iTunes by searching "Mosh Talk") and a Youtube channel where I do reviews and video essays on similar topics. Here's a video I made about some of my favorite records in my collection.

Would appreciate any clicks/watches/likes/subscriptions/whatever.

Indian folk metal, Bloodywood:

One of the sickest bands I've heard in a while.

[Grumpier Than Thou]

I'm currently listening to Everywhere at the end of time

That's a really, really, really bad idea.

Oh cool a modern metalcore band that actually sounds like 90s/early 00s metalcore and has no nu-metal or MySpace influence whatsoever, awesome! (I bet R2D2 hates them lol)

Also confirmed for Furnace Fest 2023!

Buddy they're from Delaware, I've been seeing these dudes play local shows in various other bands for a decade lol

Good for them though, they rip

Just landed tickets to see The Cure in June, so I'm going to be hyperfixating on them for a while. Wish is an incredible album.

Legitimately I'm big-time jelly.

How was it?

Best night of my life no exaggeration. Such an insane live show. Plus they brought out Congressman Maxwell Frost during Misery Business and he said f—k Ron Desantis so that was baller

I've gotten really into Poppy lately.

YESSSSSS she's the best!!!!

[Grumpier Than Thou]

Late to the punch on this band, they appear to have quite an underground following. I saw them on Friday night and just...wow. My mind was blown and is still in the process of being blown.

The funny thing about all the new Taylor lyrics people are making fun of is that they sound just like Lana lyrics. Taylor's influences have always been extremely obvious in her music. Haven't listened to the album yet but if it's just Taylor Swift doing a Lana impression the whole time I'll probably like it.

It is to a large extent for sure. Taylor definitely has her fair share of cringe lyrics, but she's no worse than any other pop artist. People are harsher on her because she's the most popular musician on the planet. Quite a few songs on the new album are genuinely gut-wrenching.
