1 i'm not sure you "get" punk production if your main criteria for what it's supposed to do is based on a tenuous notion of hi-fi 2 i also routinely stab voodoo dolls of every vocalist who has failed to elicit emotion in me 3 lmfao define songwriting

it was with never before seen good songwriting that the first eliciters of emotion were able to popularise the whinge // humanity has never looked back

I didn't recognize the name Sotelo so I looked it up. I'd never actually heard Periphery so I finally looked them up. I was...disappointed, for a band that was far down my to-do list to begin with. my initial impression of "Blood Eagle" is that it's for people who think being pissed off is a personality trait, but I also only got to 1:35 before I turned it off. was expecting indulgent wankery, got boring chug.

tbqh i don't even really like getting too deep into specifics that much with songwriting and whatnot because my approach to music is entirely based on emotions and my own personal experience, so that's a war i will admittedly always lose, sorry.

all i can really respond to with more modern punk, the guitar tones and recording quality just feel like they have more energy and "punch" so to say now, MCR's debut was raw as hell but the guitars didn't sound like they just put some fuzz on it and called it a day. maybe that's the point but i feel like i would've enjoyed bands like Minor Threat, Black Flag live a hell of a lot more than in studio. it feels flat and like it lacks impact in studio a lot, with 80s stuff.

and yeah, i feel way more emotion from spencer sotelo than i ever did with someone like roger daltrey. that doesn't mean daltrey and the others or bad, or even that i hate them, i just prefer to appreciate their influence while instead listening to what's coming out now because i like it MORE. i can appreciate one's influence while not enjoying their music as much as the ones that came after and built upon their influence, is that such a crime?

EDIT: @Sevengill jam Absolomb, that's more what I mean with emotion

If cleanly produced punk is so good why does Flipper kick modern punk's ass?

just finished jamming this for the first time. I like it and it's good



i once saw someone call Obscura "Beefheart gone metal" so I had a feeling I'd enjoy. structural simplicity and listenability be damned
