09.08.22 | 1. Julia Holter. I didn't feel super strongly about have you in my wilderness, but she has great songs & animal collective are super boring despite how weird they can be (Everytime Boots | Man of Oil ig)
2. Weezer. Both super dorky of course, but i have more history with weezer and Tired of Sex is goat (Tired of Sex | In keeping.....
3. La Dispute. What I heard from clipping. is great but not too familiar yet. Love late-era La Dispute (Fulton Street I | Nothing Is Safe)
4. Ichiko Aoba. Ichiko is wonderful and grimes is grimes (Dawn in the Adan | Flesh Without Blood)
5. Descendents. Not overly familar with either except for one meh destroyer album. Definitely enjoyed the songs i have just sampled from descendents more ('Merican | Tinseltown)
6. State Faults. State Faults are great. The motorpsycho songs i sampled were pretty cool, even if i didn't like the vocals (Clairvoyant | Theme de Yoyo
7. Loathe. Didn't know either, sampled a bit & loathe are better while not being great (Two-way Mirror | Breathe)
8. Can. Also not super familiar with either, but Can was definitely better in the songs i sampled (Moonshake | Cosmopolitan Blood Loss)
9. Laura Stevenson. Both are great but Laura is more special (L-Dopa | Nausea)
10. Stereolab. Don't know them well yet, but paramore suck [yeah checked some stereolab, easiest match up ever] (French Disko | Still Into You ig)
11. Black Country, New Roads. BCNR are pretty cool, even if they're a little silly. Diamanda Galas is uh something from what i just checked. Great voice, but i'm not (yet) convinced the music backs it up enough (Instrumental | Let My People Go)
12. Arab Strap. Really connected to Arab Straps last years album. Didn't know Shiner but they are pretty cool from what i just heard. (The Turning of Our Bones | Life as a Mannequin)
13. The Microphones. yeah i mean (I Want Wind to Blow | Before I Forget)
14. Carly Rae Jepson. My brain knows it should be maudlin, but my heart can't deny Carly (Emotion | Heaven and Weak)
15. Queens of the Stone Age. QotSA good and agalloch lame (I Appear Missing | Into the Painted Grey)
16. Ulver. Love both, but Bon Iver loses due to lame post 2011 output (Porn Piece | The Wolves)
17 Everytime I Die. Don't care strongly for either, but ETID is fun at least (Post Boredom |
18. Gorguts. Gorguts cool, deftones mid. (Colored Sands | Sextape)
19. David Bowie. Love both, but Bowie has better peaks (Blackstar | Swimming Pools)
20. MeWithoutYou. Have spend an entire year listening to Pale Horses on a weekly basis. Need to spend more time with Burial. (Birnam Woods | Her Revolution)

09.08.22 | (fav from fav; fav from against)
good rule, stickin to it
1. Julia Holter (Sea Calls Me Home; Strung With Everything atm)
2. don't care
3. clipping. (Wriggle; Fulton Street I)
4. Ichiko Aoba (iam POD 0%; the one where she sounds like HEALTH on Art Angels i think)
5. Destroyer (Suicide Demo for Kara Walker; that og Descendants album had some bangers, too bad they're too indistinguishable)
6. Motorpsycho (no favs, just good band; eeeh Ultima)
7. don't care
8. Can (if Vitamin C doesn't pump your blood, you have no taste; insert a good Glassjaw song)
9. here just to watch the deathmatch between these two
10. Stereolab (all favs; no favs)
11. Diamanda Galas (cause all you shmucks praising Lingua Ignota need to learn of the og screem quean; BCNR is great tho, Science Fair is a banger)
12. Arab Strap (Turning of Our Bones legit; don't care for Shiner, but Mort. did almost make me reconsider, almost)
13. The Microphones/Mount Eerie (Crow Looked At Me fucked me up; that Wiggles mashup)
14. maudlin of the Well (don't care for either, but don't care for Carly don'tcare-er)
15. don't wanna choose
16. Ulver (depends on the iteration; no Bon Iver)
17. Tim Hecker (to spite the ETID fans)
18. Gorguts (the genre-defining blasters; some tunes off White Pony are fine, but otherwise nothing)
19. don't make me do this
20. Burial (god i really derailed all this best-song-thing, but getting back on track: Ghost Hardware; 2459 Miles) |

09.08.22 | Tbf all the gimmick-core sub genres are worse than nu and death by far, and so is alt metal. Nu metal is probably the best of the hot topic genres but that’s a very low bar. Meanwhile death metal is a calibre above that as the worst of the metal genres for “adults”. |

I don’t understand why guys into black/death/thrash metal still act all embarrassed about nu metal, like my dudes you are theater kids bullying the anime club. you’re only a step above on the school bullying hierarchy. Have some fun with your tastes |

09.08.22 | I dunno if I’ve ever thought of Primus as alt metal |

09.08.22 | i hated death metal for a long time because of how overly serious yet dumb it was

09.08.22 | "but coheed suck mars"
the bad take factory churns out another all timer
Weezer is mid and got dated decades ago
They are their own parody band
Coheed is fun |
PotsyTater
09.08.22 | I hate to break it to you guys but both of those bands are really bad |
evilford
09.08.22 | Quit bein a hater, tater try to be an appreciator |
MarsKid
09.08.22 | tbh I shouldn't get dragged into this when the ultimate winner will likely be the most vanilla possibility
I at least did my part for Michelle Branch |
PotsyTater
09.08.22 | Evilford those dad barz made me notice the distinct lack of hip hop in this comp |
MarsKid
09.08.22 | RTJ vs. Ethereal Shroud was a pretty rough draw, especially because ES is v much Sputcore incarnate, born 'n bred. |
evilford
09.08.22 | Yeah it's kinda bad actually
At least DOOM is in it rip |
PotsyTater
09.08.22 | Any rappers who have performed at coachella don’t count as hip hop |
Mort.
09.09.22 | oh believe me i think weezer suck as well
but they suck a little bit less than coheed who are genuinely awful
weezer have like a good song, maybe even two if theyre lucky |
PotsyTater
09.09.22 | I mean I voted for weezer over cohere too so yeah, I don’t know if I’d go as far as to say that they have a good song but at least they aren’t LARP, the Band |
MarsKid
09.09.22 | O my days yeah this isn't worth it lmao |
Mort.
09.09.22 | hmmmm i hadnt considered creep factor because i havent listened to a lyric in several years (human language lame) |
Mort.
09.09.22 | i do have vague memories of cuomos creepy lyrics but its been a long long time since i listened to weezer
something about fetishising asian women? |
Mort.
09.09.22 | “Well, I suppose that halfway through writing the album, I started to realize…that I seem to be having a lot of disastrous encounters with half Japanese girls. And then it developed into disastrous encounters with Asian girls of all sorts. Yeah, I suppose it’s fair to say that I’m fascinated by Asian girls [grimaces]. For some reason, they’re particularly beautiful to me. I don’t know why. And when I became aware of that and also the fact that it was the masculine part of myself…I remembered the story of Madame Butterfly and the story of the character Pinkerton…Pinkerton is the ultimate character representing male id who goes to Japan…and hooks up with this 15-year-old Japanese girl and gets her pregnant and then abandons her. He’s thoroughly despicable. [long pause] But I can’t deny that there’s some of that in me.”

Kompys2000
09.09.22 | Weezer's simpering Joss Whedon-ass quips and quirks are at least as uncool as Coheed's whole sci fi loreprog thing and twice as disingenuous |
Mort.
09.09.22 | concept albums are as lame as johnnys concept lists
no i wont stop calling them concept lists |
PotsyTater
09.09.22 | “ Weezer's simpering Joss Whedon-ass quips and quirks are at least as uncool as Coheed's whole sci fi loreprog thing and twice as disingenuous”
Point
“ concept albums are as lame as johnnys concept lists”
Also a point
“ The Coheed mythos being entirely irrelevant to 90% of all their music is one of the best band gimmicks imaginable ngl”
I didn’t know this and this is also also a point. When I read about the coheed mythos and comics it was clear that I had found the dorkiest band on the planet. But this new info makes it a bit funny |
PotsyTater
09.09.22 | Can we at least all agree that both bands are somehow, some way, still inexplicably less lame than tallest man on earth |
kevbogz
09.09.22 | weezer rips agreed m/ |

evilford

Kompys2000
09.09.22 | Tallest man is lamer than Weezer if the constant threat of hearing Beverly Hills or Island In The Sun in a public place does not outweigh the cosmic indifference of not even knowing what Tallest Man on Earth song you would be most likely to encounter in the wild |

09.09.22 | I kno

09.09.22 | I mean they're like the objectively more accessible band |
MarsKid
09.09.22 | This is true
but they are also favored too highly
These results could change OUR LIVES |
Pikazilla
09.09.22 | it's not like deftones will win this thing, so it doesn't matter ig |
Sharenge
09.09.22 | to be honest, it looks like Gorguts has this round in the bag though |
MarsKid
09.09.22 | Winner will be the most vanilla outcome w/popularity in and out of Sput, and will not be a good representative of Sputcore
The only hope is to hitch a wagon to a meme choice
Slipknot 2022 let's boogie |
Pikazilla
09.09.22 | slipknot winning would be a fail of epic proportions
prepubescent ragecore becoming sput 2022 represent would be disheartening to say the least |

Kendrick on the other hand is probably my most listened to artist of the year so yeah I hope he gets through a tough opening round |

I’ll have to give clipping another go. |
Shemson
09.09.22 | Haha nice, that was quite the let down when I thought they were dropping a full album.

Mort.
09.10.22 | i tried to get into loathe once but i really
disliked them |
DavidYowi
09.10.22 | I like Loathe but for my money shoegaze bands taking cues from metal >>> metal taking cues from shoegaze |
PotsyTater
09.10.22 | Surprisingly I might swing the other way solely because I think shoegaze production is often even more reprehensible than metal production |
PotsyTater
09.10.22 | Like specifically what styles of metal usually mash up with shoegaze? Mostly black metal… maybe some post metal here and there? Generally prefer black metal and post metal production to shoegaze production. |
DavidYowi
09.10.22 | I'm kinda the opposite. I think my problem is that a lot of metal use shoegaze parts as "ooh look at the pretty thing", too syrupy. I like it best when the beauty of the genre is found within the harshness, like even though it's very clean and pretty sounding it still sounds off |
PotsyTater
09.10.22 | I get that. It’s a fine line for me. Like I hate Alcest for those very reasons. But I love Agape by Lantlos. It’s a more balanced marriage of aesthetics. I also can appreciate something like Angelic Process. I think for me the heaviness and harshness of metal suits shoegaze production, where a lot of straight up shoegaze the mudiness frustrates me because I’m trying to hear beyond the wall of sound to discern the nuances of the musicianship. It strains my ears. |
MiloRuggles
09.10.22 | "Deftones, a band universally revered for their watertight songwriting, atmospheric nuance, and admirable policy of never using heaviness as an end in and of itself."
Woah, Johnny said this? What year is it? |
PotsyTater
09.10.22 | Whatever year it was before Diamond eyes came out clearly |
MiloRuggles
09.10.22 | Heyhey now, I just knew that'd rile you up. I think they're decent at all of those things (certainly by comparison) although they very much have some poopoo songs |
SlothcoreSam
09.10.22 | Weezer pre 1996, da shit.
Weezer post 1996 da shitz.
Coheed pre 2006, kinda da shit.
