It's not just the "whiny" thing, I generally just don't like the delivery and the sound of them. I generally like vocals erring on the harsher side more in this kind of music. (e.g. As We Draw, Birds In Row, Loma, Barrow, State Faults, Manners ect)

i agree on that front for sure. i have the same issue with touche amore, who i can't fucking stand mostly because of their vocalist. it doesn't help that he is also a trite and terrible lyricist though.

Eh, the last album was listenable. But by no means good and I'm admittedly one of those people who can mostly blend out lyrics unless you can't escape how awful they are.
I guess I generally don't like all that whiny "woe is me, this world is awful, oh the emotions" shtick, especially with that whiff of pretentiousness where they pretend it's something more than just that. Idk, it just feels super "manufactured" to me.
I can feel or empathize a lot more with the Birds in Row singer yelling "bastard" at the French justice system. (which is seeeeeeeeeeeeeriously awful from what I've gathered)

If you fantasize about your funeral, I understand
I've been there before
If what's more important, is the music played
Than who'd attend
We
Are
The
Same
With heads to the ground,
As I'm lowered down,
There will be a chorus
An overwhelming sound.

that is some shit-tier lyricism there
|
| |
how do you know they are pretentious wolf
|
| |
i actually think it takes some balls to be as big a pansy as jordan dreyer
|
| |
I can't know, duh. But that's how it comes across, everything else is irrelevant. also lol at those lyrics.
Exactly what I meant.
|
| |
aww c'mon!
|
| |
dammit
|

I guess "pretentious" may not be the perfect word. Wildly hyperbolic, exaggerated to no end, stereotypical/prototypical, scene-ish, lame, pubescent. If those adjectives fly more with your style.
Also, don't you pull a Tom Selleck on me.

Gonna keep this one for a while though, damn got pics on my wall of her and everthing now :/ (she's gonna file that restraining order, hard.)
|
| |
I'm pretty sure she actually spoke out against exactly that, lol. In addition to the whole complimenting her for aesthetics and shit stuff.
|
| |
agreed. her music is gorgeous and she is undeniably cute but i try my best to focus on the former.
|
| |
^ what he said. Although I find it to hard to focus on such aesthetics much when they're not in my vicinity.
|
| |
Yeah well I don't see anything wrong tbh, I bought her music so that's support she undoubtedly needs.
I could understand how she'd find it sketchy but then again she is a zany chick, not just pics of her either lol other bands, acts etc.
