01.13.21 | This is by the same people who did that shitty Riverdale show, right? Wouldn't expect anything less from those geniuses /s
If you want actually good modern Archie comics, look no further then Mark Waid's modernized Archie comics run, its incredible |
Colton
01.13.21 | that sounds like a way more flattering depiction than if they had actually made it accurate |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | U seem upset but I mean you chose to watch this |
Gyromania
01.13.21 | a pretty fucking rancid episode of tv no doubt. something about this show is enjoyable. nostalgia mostly. basically any time the band is on screen the show drops to a 0/10 |
Gyromania
01.13.21 | so weird this was posted i literally just saw that episode last night like wtf lmao |
JohnnyoftheWell
01.13.21 | finna watch this later |
unclereich
01.13.21 | I still don't have Netflix |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | This really does sound like something johnny would enjoy |
JohnnyoftheWell
01.13.21 | Cannot confirm how ironically yet, but am p heavily sold ngl |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Ironic enjoyment is still enjoyment no shame |
Colton
01.13.21 | Johnny the type of dude to say Breaking Bad is mediocre |
heck
01.13.21 | it's just a TV show |
Trundle
01.13.21 | fun fact: Jim Carrey heard Cannibal Corpse on the radio and demanded they be featured in Ace Ventura, and so that's why we have the concert scene with them playing "Hammer Smashed Face" |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Wow that WAS fun |
JohnnyoftheWell
01.13.21 | Lmao, my new favourite Jim Carrey story |
Space Jester
01.13.21 | This reminds me of an episode of Criminal Minds where a bunch of satan-worshipping high school kids are listening to Drowning Pool
But another episode features “Death Whispered a Lullaby” by Opeth during an investigation montage so I dunno who was making the choices for the music in this damn show lol |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Wow |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Tbh i kind of love the unflattering lowest common denominator dramatized portrayal of "satanic death metal" you see in tv and movies i think its hilarious, good satire |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Just because metalheads think they look way cooler than that and that their music is better but in reality do they really, and also is it really? 🤔 |
Cygnatti
01.13.21 | the show is pretty good most of the time, some of the stuff in it is really bad tho lol |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Shipka is cool forever in my books, just from her role in Blackcoats Daughter |
Trundle
01.13.21 | "Tbh i kind of love the unflattering lowest common denominator dramatized portrayal of "satanic death metal" you see in tv and movies i think its hilarious, good satire"
[2]
it makes the idea of organized satanic worship even more preposterous when they're inspired by music you can get at walmart |
sixdegrees
01.13.21 | Sounds pretty accurate to me |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | "it makes the idea of organized satanic worship even more preposterous when they're inspired by music you can get at walmart"
😂😂
Its just like the hot topic "poser" version of Satanism in the best way possible |
rifkadm
01.13.21 | "Tbh i kind of love the unflattering lowest common denominator dramatized portrayal of "satanic death metal" you see in tv and movies i think its hilarious, good satire"
Wish I could say this was satire. This was basically like that "most brutal metal scream" meme but unironically lol |
el_newg
01.13.21 | lol i like how this was so important to you that you made a list on sput and provided links and an essay :D |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Oh trust, I don't mean those depictions are meant as satire, it's often very unintentional, which makes it just that much funnier from the outside perspective that the unintentional satire is actually kind of apt |
rifkadm
01.13.21 | The show isn't a gold standard but early on was kind of ok. Then the writing and plots went crazy and now it's something that plays in the background while I do other shit lol |
Gyromania
01.13.21 | btw pots i finished the boys and it's good as hell |
rifkadm
01.13.21 | "lol i like how this was so important to you that you made a list on sput and provided links and an essay :D"
Tbh where else would I rant about this abhorrent crime against metal music |
rifkadm
01.13.21 | Gyro is the second season of the boys as good as the first? |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Like to the outside perspective of the lowest common denominator viewer it doesn't matter how obscure or elite the metal you listen to is or what level of authenticity your Satanism is lol to them it still sounds like Slipknot and looks like some ouji board hot topic make up party |
Gyromania
01.13.21 | in my opinion yes. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Like it might as well be ICP |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Yeah season 2 was great |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | So yall watch Scream Queens or what |
Gyromania
01.13.21 | definitely don't think they were doing this ironically i think everything in this show like this stems from ignorance. i think the idea of the celestial terrors coming back to destroy the world is a fascinating concept. like imagine what that kind of premise could look like under a talented director with a decent budget. kind of bothers me that all the eldritch terrors materialize as humans who are very clearly just wearing makeup. they don't appear intimidating or convincing in the slightest |

01.13.21 | Does anyone know of any good media portrayals of metalheads where they aren’t bullies or idiots or serial killers |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Colton your music taste is Netflix's Chilling Adventures of Sabrina the Teenage Witch tbh |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | "Does anyone know of any good media portrayals of metalheads where they aren’t bullies or idiots or serial killers"
Why would there be that doesn't exist irl |
Space Jester
01.13.21 | You’re right I should probably stop killing people |
JohnnyoftheWell
01.13.21 | the metal bit in Wild at Heart maybe @Jester |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Lol wild at heart nice |

01.13.21 | weak |
JohnnyoftheWell
01.13.21 | DJ Sabrina is too thicc for me but this maybe makes sense |
rifkadm
01.13.21 | @Gyro very true the eldritch terrors were highly unimaginative and silly in this season.
Kinda reminds me of that other show Locke and Key that Netflix did that took all the sinister elements and terror out of the graphic novel source material (which are excellent btw). They made what could have been a really cool adaptation of an original series into sort of a stranger things rip off. In general Netflix has suuckkkked with lovecraftian horror. |
rifkadm
01.13.21 | @Space idk maybe that Sound of Metal movie everyone is talking about? I haven't seen it yet tho so it's a maybe |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Lol locke and key is so bad (the show) |
Relinquished
01.13.21 | I thought it was Peele and Key |
AlexKzillion
01.13.21 | I was on a date with this sorta jesus-y girl like a year ago talking music and I brought up I was going to "a metal show" next week... she made a face like she thought I was the guys in this show in my free time lol. I was like "uhhh do you think I'm...." and she quickly responded with "no, no haha" and everything was normal again. People be weird. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | lul |
JeetJeet
01.13.21 | So you'll watch this hot ass garbage but you haven't finished Twin Peaks? smh |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | i've watched each season of twin peaks at least 4 times am i allowed to watch garbage tv |
JeetJeet
01.13.21 | "idk maybe that Sound of Metal movie everyone is talking about? I haven't seen it yet tho so it's a maybe"
That movie is excellent but metal is such a small aspect of the story that it really doesn't matter |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | How about mad max fury road amirite |
LeddSledd
01.13.21 | cars and warlords and babes, oh my! |
rifkadm
01.13.21 | It's the return I haven't finished. I should probably finish it but it's like a crying baby you need to give it undivided attention. It's not like this show where you can watch it but be scrolling half the time lol |
rifkadm
01.13.21 | Oh wait there was that one south park episode recently where stan and friends form a black metal band but have issues making the documentary because of China. Does that count? xD |
ArsMoriendi
01.13.21 | You still haven't finished Twin Peaks: The Return? It's soo good though, like better than the original somehow |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | The return is somehow the best season of twin peaks yeah |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Its kind of fucked up how God tier it is tbqh, like we don't even deserve it |
Colton
01.13.21 | watch Justified you fuckin jabronis |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | I'll never take your justified rec seriously until you've seen twin peaks tbh |
LeddSledd
01.13.21 | it's a David Lynch project, it seems!
my interest has been "peak'd" :D |
Colton
01.13.21 | i've seen The Killing |
JohnnyoftheWell
01.13.21 | very 2k10s of u |
Colton
01.13.21 | what are your thoughts on Breaking Bad |
budgie
01.13.21 | excited to check sabrina |
JohnnyoftheWell
01.13.21 | Never seen BB because I took the "watch one ep get hooked watch em all" rep seriously and didn't want that kinda energy at the time, but am sure it has many knife edges |
combustion07
01.13.21 | Gotta watch Sabrina now. Really need to check the Twin Peaks comeback too. Totally forgot it happened |
LeddSledd
01.13.21 | Breaking Bad is Breaking Bad, I don't think much more needs to be said
greatest show of all time? probably not
one of the greatest? arguably |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | I just started breaking bad recently. A couple I lived with years ago were watching it and I'd always step in at random times and spoil bits of each season by accident - including the show finale - so I thought I ruined it for myself and put it off indefinitely. |
LeddSledd
01.13.21 | the show's great regardless, even on rewatches just seeing how it plays out is super gripping. the first season is easily the weakest but once it kicks into gear with the second it's really hard to put down |
Colton
01.13.21 | probably the second best show ever honestly |
ArsMoriendi
01.13.21 | "I'll never take your justified rec seriously until you've seen twin peaks tbh"
He'd probably hate it, he compared Kate to Yoko Ono and Toad from Mario this week. The dude doesn't like jarringly weird stuff |
Colton
01.13.21 | you literally admitted she sounds like Toad |
Ryus
01.13.21 | breaking bad is perfect at what it does. not the best show ever but extremely entertaining and well made |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Oh I'm sure he'd have a characteristically awful take on it but it's a great litmus test. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Yeah I'm feeling you ryus and ledd so far. I'm on season 3 and its a great show. Not the greatest, but near objectively ~a~ great. |
rabidfish
01.13.21 | i thought 1st season was meh and never watched again. i like the visuals and the production design, tho. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | My least favourite part is everyone's wives. |
Gyromania
01.13.21 | Breaking bad is easily one of the best shows ever |

01.13.21 | I bet Pots can connect with a lot of the cast |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Behave |
budgie
01.13.21 | is breaking bad the show about the zombies in georgia |
Deathconscious
01.13.21 | Pretty much any time a show tries to do a band/music based episode its pretty cringe, regardless of genre. |
JohnnyoftheWell
01.13.21 | Okay, watching this rn. Never seen a single episode of Sabrina and am confused and excited as hell |
JohnnyoftheWell
01.13.21 | oh fuck i watched the wrong episode |
rifkadm
01.13.21 | Lol it’s the one in season 4 called “the returned” |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | Johnny u intentionally watched the wrong one as an excuse to watch more |
rifkadm
01.13.21 | Also I started season 2 of the boys with my bro. We only watched the first two episodes but so far off to a good start |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.13.21 | its no sabrina but |
rifkadm
01.13.21 | Lol |
JohnnyoftheWell
01.13.21 | watched the episode after by mistake lol, was so confused that it didn't occur to me as odd that the metal gang hadn't shown up until the halfway mark, and then it was too late |
BookoftheFallen
01.13.21 | "Pretty much any time a show tries to do a band/music based episode its pretty cringe, regardless of genre."
What about that episode of spongebob when they play in a marching band and patrick asks if mayonaise is an instrument? |
LeddSledd
01.14.21 | easily one of the best Spongebob episodes |
JeetJeet
01.14.21 | ""Pretty much any time a show tries to do a band/music based episode its pretty cringe, regardless of genre."
The Billy & Mandy battle of the bands episode is so awesome tho. |
rifkadm
01.14.21 | It's worth noting that the two exceptions people have come up with so far are funny old-school cartoons. |
ArsMoriendi
01.14.21 | I think people tend to love that Phineas and Ferb one about getting that 80s band back together as well
Cartoon writers know better I guess |
aydross121
01.14.21 | Third season of Twin peaks is like some of the best tv i've ever seen and I don't even understand what happened.
Sabrina sucks lol, the first season was decent though. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.14.21 | Lol it took me 2 views to start to feel like I had any sort of communicable understanding of season 3, as disjointed as that understanding was, and now even after view number 4 I get a lot of it (to whatever degree of certainty you can have over something so bewilderingly interpretive) and it's still even hard to explain without getting confused or sounding absolutely mental |
rellik009
01.14.21 | my god these music scenes are apalling
I'm gonna sound like a boomer but I genuinely don't know how people could get invested in this trite |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.14.21 | I've never seen an episode of this but sometimes people just want to watch something silly and passive so they can turn their brain off for a bit, don't judge
Some people just need to unwind like that rather than watching shit that is emotionally taxing or cognitively demanding all the time etc
My major preferences in music, tv and movies are usually relatively "cerebral" or "deep" but it's draining to only digest demanding material, sometimes you gotta just take in something light |
Brabiz
01.14.21 | “ they should bring back Euronymous, who I bet is still pissed that Varg murdered him and would actually shred his guitar” dude sucked even when he was alive.
Show is pretty great though. A lot of fun |
rellik009
01.14.21 | yeah but Pots even in the silly and passive schtuff there are plenty of things which are infinitely better than this garbage
but ok fine you're right. and I shouldn't judge cuz I listen to generic synthwave sometimes |
Trundle
01.14.21 | " Some people just need to unwind like that rather than watching shit that is emotionally taxing or cognitively demanding all the time etc"
ding ding ding, i've been rewatching the simpsons since the first season for this very reason.
sometimes after being bombarded by the atrocities you see in the news all the time you don't want to have to deal with tv shows that also portray the same things
this is kinda why i've soured a bit on the comedic drama genre,
just pick a lane and stay in it. |
JohnnyoftheWell
01.14.21 | "there are plenty of things which are infinitely better than this garbage"
guarantee rellik is watching a porn parody right now this minute |
rellik009
01.14.21 | fine I hyperboled about the "infinitely better stuff" but hentai and plot in porn is god tier ok it is comedy gold x 10000000000000000000000. And apart from hentai I won't even talk about GODLIKE kung fu movies like Once Upon A Time In China, absolute madlad shit

aydross121
01.14.21 | Regarding some "true" metalhead depiction in movies, in Dark there's a guy listening to some terrible but real 80s thrash song, and I don't think he was a killer iirc. dont know the band/song though. |

Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.14.21 | "there are plenty of things which are infinitely better than this garbage"
Ok but can you not see how its kind of cringe to be elitist about what garbage junk food TV people watch? "The shit tv i watch is better than the shit tv you watch..." its still shit tv so who cares |
rellik009
01.14.21 | yeah but what's the fun in not being an elitist sometimes
|
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.14.21 | Fair |
Pheromone
01.14.21 | hehe love when you call out elitists pots when elitist is so ur fav outfit |
LeddSledd
01.14.21 | wouldn't be Sputnik without elitist infighting |

01.14.21 | agreed
|
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.14.21 | Pheromone you have a very brittle old chip on your shoulder about that, let people change and alter their perspectives dude. Yes I like chatting shit sometimes but I don't judge people based off their preferences and I admire people that stick to their guns even if its seen as lame by "elitists". Unless I hate you in which case we go back to chatting shit and judging you |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.14.21 | I dunno maybe ur the exact same person u were 10 years ago but thats a you prob |
Pheromone
01.14.21 | dont be change elitist bro |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.14.21 | Like this is the 3rd or 4th time you've brought this up since you've come back why are you so hung up on old shit |
Pheromone
01.14.21 | this is the 2nd time ive brought it up i count this stuff on my lil sput calendar |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.14.21 | Well it's whack and it makes me not respect you. You don't know anything about my thoughts and values or even my sense of humour or whether or not it is reflective of those views as we haven't spoken in years. I seen you do this shit with caliggy too. Everyone is a hypocrite if you zoom the lens out far enough, including you. Maybe ur hung up because youre the one who hasnt changed at all I dunno. |
Pheromone
01.14.21 | pots bro it's not that deep maybe you gotta not stress so much - the colton shit is weird but we move on |
Colton
01.14.21 | *malding intensifies* |

01.14.21 | Wait what did I do |

01.14.21 | nah i meant more him 2 u |

01.14.21 | this is a music website guys cmon |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.14.21 | As far as I remember we were cool back then too so I really don't even know why you feel the need to posture about this shit, its weird bro |

01.14.21 | ohhh |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.14.21 | "but we move on"
All the evidence suggests you don't |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.14.21 | And colton behave we are in peace times don't ruin it |
Colton
01.14.21 | lol wow |
Pheromone
01.14.21 | pots dont let my bored shitposting convince you overwise i really do not be caring about ze past |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.14.21 | If thats true then I apologize but it has seemed rather pointed and I think there is something behind that |
Pheromone
01.14.21 | there really isn't i just got a giggle that u were into skins I like u bro im sorry to seem like a pointy boy |
Pheromone
01.14.21 | If I 5 myss keta can we put this to rest |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.14.21 | Alright sorry for reading into it then. Between multiple reminders that I can't have reasonable opinions on account of past elitism and seeing you give caliggy shit about a 6 year old tweet I got I certain impression. |
Pheromone
01.14.21 | aha me and caliggy sorted that on that thread - i only knew that from the kozalek thread too didnt even realise it was 6 years ago lol |
Colton
01.14.21 | Caliggy posted the most cursed list of all time and then seemingly just dipped the site lol |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.14.21 | Yeah caliggy is a good guy he just went down a weird rabbit hole for a bit and a lot of people won't let him live it down. If u didn't know that was an old tweet I can understand your reaction. |
Pheromone
01.14.21 | I think (??) I probably wasn't around then, corona brought me back around the cursed kozelek thread time |
SitarHero
01.14.21 | This is amazing. |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.14.21 | Kozelek thread was probably the juiciest controversy of the year for sput so that's some fortunate timing
Actually the whorecore debacle was also 2020 I think |
LeddSledd
01.14.21 | have you forgotten Biggles so quickly |
Relinquished
01.14.21 | who |
JohnnyoftheWell
01.14.21 | Whorecore was late 2019 iirc, but might be wrong |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
01.14.21 | biggles was only controversy to the people he actually somehow irritated |
JohnnyoftheWell
01.14.21 | Biggle's legacy turned out to be the way he enabled Colton, which ig is irritating enough
Not to change the subject, but the Sweet Child o Mine cover in this episode really was the biggest crock of shite |
Pheromone
01.14.21 | hahaha i love it so much |
DavidYowi
01.14.21 | Whorecore? |

01.14.21 | sowing called brittney spears whorecore and set off mezz crew's sput-alarm triggering a bunch of disgruntled ex users and staff from nearly a decade ago to storm the site to bully him into submission for being a misogynist |
