#I missed his albums so much

[melit0n]

Getting new Wilbur music after a year (let alone getting a new album from him after YCGMA) is an amazing way to end my year and I highly implore all of you to go listen to it

#the fact Amazon standing lamp is in reference to us calling him random item names is lovely #I missed his albums so much #they're really comforting to me #maybe because it reminds me of 2019/2020 #that was a really bad time in my life but still #so far mine / yours and around the pomegranate are my favourites #wilbur soot #mammalian sighing reflex #MSH #lovejoy

i think in the hamster wheel of my mind a big part of where people go wrong with eddie and his shitty garage band as an extension is that they for some bizarre reason think he's gene simmons metal when he's jack black metal. heavy metal. he's tenacious d metal. he's school of rock. he's stoner lord of the rings metal he nearly wore blue jeans and plaid. jack black literally in real life once said eddie was the best character bc he's heavy metal like him. LOOK AT THIS

#🍦 #answer it's bc people think he's some mishmash of all alternative scenes without any actual knowledge of where the mashing occurs 😭 #eddie is . a heavy metal guy. A cool one. a nice one even. he likes rock and roll #it's so funny when ppl try and describe it and they've never heard the stuff he actually listens to in their lives for some reason #literally so much of the appeal of eddie's character within his subculture is that its theatrical and dramatic but its still grounded #he's very alternative and Out There but he's still just some guy. he's not wearing spiked leather jackets #in fact he's not wearing any of the other kinds of leather jackets i've seen people say he would ... TO ME #sts #if u haven't seen the clip he then proceeds to air guitar the MoP melody then shouts heavy metal is everywhere #i don't even know how to explain this bc it's like ... okay #the general .. VIBE? aestheticsm? is kind of similar to what people sometimes portray but they're missing thst it's tongue in cheek #like it's like that buff poster of him being this anachronistic homage to heavy metal album covers #fire and satanic imagery and skulls and lightning and big drama and ROCK AND ROLL #it's rock and ROLL man... #and people r making him this weird sanitised dork LOL 😭 when he's a dork in a different more fun way.. imo #and it's not that those types of people don't exist and that they're not cool in their own way cuz they are sure but that's not THIS GUY #he is an 80S METALHEAD... and yeah i try and ground him in thinfs and poke and prod at it until it fits my own understanding of alternative #scenes better but that's bc i've had a hand in the punk scene for years and years #i dunno sometimes i feel like ppl r just not doing the full potential and then going way too hard in this super specific direction #and he ends up first of all usually just a massive douchebag not sure what that's about. But a guy who he would in canon HATE 😭 #YOU ARE MAKING HIM A POSER. is what i'm saying #he is alwyas some guy before he's anything else and before he's that he's a 20 year old loser #you need to reflect this... You need to bottle it. ugh. ugh #so much of this reminds me of the time someone was like he would never wear PLAID #like are you kidding me. are you actually kidding me rn #ppl have this weird arstheticised mostly modern and mostly literallt just eboy Idea of what he'd wear it's crazy to me sorry #also it's ugly #i also think. this is so long lol . anyway . i also think going too ''authentic'' in the 80s metalhead direction also lands u w different #problems. my advice to people trying to write or draw alternative characters is they are People. before they are anything else #🍏

i can see that all along, love, it was you all the way down

#azia gposes #io/estinien #io laithe #thank you foamofthe-sea for this gorgeous scar mod. TRULY thriving now #like it is SO nice to have both io and estinien looking how i picture them between her freckles and his scars #and this is so lovingly made. i was so distracted by the lil moles on his back.... wild for that tbh #canon to me #also. new hozier album my beloved #i carrion (icarian) the most estinio song of all time #i missed them so much !!! glad i took a break from xiv but io is my favorite child and i've been thinking about them constantly #they're just... so comfy and happy and in love T^T #okay bye i need to sleep o/

i know some people say that he relies on fans too much but i don't think you'll say that if you see the genuine emotion on his face while talking about fans and the support he's received over the years and how much we've done for him. the sheer overwhelm and gratitude on his face as he spoke about how if it weren't for the fans and how much we boost him up, he wouldn't have moved from the sound of walls to the sound of faith in the future, which to be fair are miles apart and takes some artists years to move between genres. he's well aware of how the industry has betrayed him but he's truly reached a point where he does what he does for the people who love him and no one else and i'm so proud of him for that. i know in this industry radio play and awards and public promo matters, but to see him talk about us has made me realise that to him success means that his music was loved by his fans and everything else is just a bonus. he was sat there, a full few weeks after his album going number one, and he still couldn't believe it. he looked like he didn't know how else to say thank you, and like words were falling short for the amount of gratitude he wanted to express. being in the crowd last night made me realise just how much he values the artist-fan relationship he's built with us and he wants to keep working towards keeping this connection strong and tight knit and creating this community together 🫂🤍

#like. i know so many people complain about him not getting radio play #but being there last night made me realise that he's aware of it and he will shade it but at the end of the day #to him what matters is us loving his music and being so gassed for him and his career #he even said that this album and the sound was a culmination of what both he and us wanted #like. it was his way of sort of saying ''i know you wanted me to go punk and so i did and i'm glad you loved it'' #and like when i say he's truly doing it for the fans i don't mean it in a fan service way i mean that he's doing what he loves #while also completely trusting that we'll love it and give it all the hype that it deserves #given how much the industry has sabotaged i know it would've been hard to move from walls to fitf and its sound #but he only did it because he knew we'd eat that up #and i'm so proud of him for making an album that he genuinely loves and is so pumped for performing #you could see it on his face last night that he too was thinking about how he was gonna miss tour and how excited he was #i honestly can't wait to see how fucking awesome tour will be 🤍 #meant to post this last night after the q+a but my hands were freezing so you get it now

[dummerjan]

i just came across ai covers on youtube and people are requesting songs in the comments instead of getting enraged and i am further losing hope in humanity and turning to misanthropy

#meins #for a minute i got really excited about henning may singing take me to church :( #i hate people #have you no appreciation for or understanding of art? clearly not. #why would you want to listen to an ai generated song? even if it sounds like your favourite singer it's not them #it has no feelings to meaning to intention. it is empty and soulless #reading the booklet for sinéad o'connor's album of traditional irish and folk songs gave me so much appreciation for her #she wrote a little bit about each song. why she chose it or what it means to her. #it has added so much to my enjoyment of those songs and i think of it whenver i listen to it #they were chosen with intention with love with a deep appreciation for the music and lyrics and there is a story behind it all #it is art and love and human #i see aboslutely no appeal in ai generated 'music' or 'art' #and i hate that i fell for it for a minute #i was sceptical because i had never heard of henning may covering hozier and since it wasn't just 20-60 sec i am certain #i would have heard about it by now #and something was just a little bit... unsatisfying? something was missing which does apply to a lot of cover songs #(i could go on hour long rants about why people fuck up danny boy (and sinéad o'connor does it best (because she actually takes her time) #or trash madonna's version of don't cry for me argentina (again a song ruined for by everybody else but sinéad - once she has sung somethin #i have a hard time enjoying it by anybody else. the parting glass is an exception. hozier's version is phenomenal)) #but! henning may not giving it his all for a cover? unlikely. very unlikely. #anyway this concludes my tuesday night rant. rather here in the tags than some poor person's inbox. #or i would have kept fuming by myself for another hour or two

[pendraegon]

why is pete wentz important to me?? like him, i was a non white kid who grew up in a very white neighborhood in the chicagoland area and it was exhausting and isolating and so so so lonely it could make your teeth hurt. like him, i’m bipolar and no one has ever quite gotten close to describing what my highs and lows are like, but he’s the only one who has gotten close. (do you know what it's like being so so so manic and you know you're not okay and everything rushes around you and you feel like you're on top of the world but you know it's all a lie? an illusion? do you know what it feels like to plummet down so so so so deep and dark and there's nothing but you and that gaping ache inside of you, reminding you just how hollow and fake you are?) like him, i grew up enthralled and obsessed with rock, punk, the hardcore scene of chicago, and there was nothing and no one there for people like me and people who looked like me in a place and sound that i loved more than anything on earth. i saw him reflected in me and in the most non creepy parasocial way possible, he has been one of the most incredible influences of my life. maybe even one of the possible sunshines of my lifetime for all he is still a stranger to me, and i to him.

#for legal reasons as a joke — we’re also both bi. #but he means the WORLD to me. forever and always. #do NOT try to come at me with pete wentz slander i will kill you. sorry for not shutting up about this. im just incredibly annoyed. #he's not infallible. he's made so many mistakes in his life. and im not excusing any of them but you know #i wonder why pete gets SO much virulent hate and always has. might be the racism and ableism. but who knows. not me! #anyways stream mania by american rock band fall out boy (2018). legit life changing fucking album. also stream #their newest album so much (for) stardust. actually stream all their albums they're all so so so so good. i don't know who i'd be or where #i'd be without em. fall out boy forever and ever<3 fall out boy is for lovers<3 #also one last thing: you don't need to like him! you don't need to like fob either! it's just so so so wild the way misinfo about pete #specifically still exists. in fucking 2023. like get a fucking grip babes i was deep in those fucking forums in 2008 i know what's up. #okay. i hope you guys are ready im going to spam patrick images i think. what can i say. i miss them without a concert to look forward to.

[rhaaclaws]

Been on a Darling Nikki roll recently but i also wanted to draw their freak robot boytoy, Vihaan

[Vihaan by @outpost-31]

#hes literally the main villain of ppr. hes also terrified of her #alos his hair is molten metal its so cool GAHHHHH I NEED TO DRAW MORE OF HIM #sneef i missed drawing soso much #jjba oc #post punk revival #rhaa art #Darling Nikki #Date Vihaan #yayyy he has a tag now #A Touch Of Evil #<- their ship name. off the painkiller album its a good song

[optiwashere]

Regardless of my opinion about the song itself, the new Unleash the Archers video is making me a bit rabid to see them live again. Their shows are fucking killer. Plus, Brittney and Scott were very sweet when I got a chance to chat w/ them at a merch table a handful of times.

Also, last week's new releases didn't quite grab me so I never did a ramble about that lol. Really hard to top that Isenordal album...

#random rambling about music #I think that was a tag IDK I've lost the plot on some of my own tags lmao #anyways the song is fine #but I'm betting it works way better in context of the album #and I was saying this in dms with a friend but it reminds me just how much of an album person I am lmao #re: last week's new releases - the new Aborted is pretty good and it was nice hearing SO many familiar voices #I recognized Alexandre from Despised Icon instantaneously and Oli from Archspire did his rapid-fire thing so he wasn't hard to miss lol #but it's very much leaning harder into deathcore which I'm w/e on save for a handful of bands

[ansy-tea]

Y'all ever stopped listening to your favorite bands for about 2 years for reasons you don't even know yourself. Maybe it's because you're busy. Maybe it's because you thought you've acquired new tastes. You really don't know. But then suddenly you listened to one song of theirs again and now you're sobbing over how good the songwriting was? And now that you're not a dumb High Schooler without much experience you understand the lyrics even more?

Anyways that's me with Fall Out Boy right now lmao. It's high time I listen to their new album later.

#incoherent rambles #ansy-stalks #confession: would yall kill me if my fave album of theirs is MANIA hAHAHAHHA— #LISTEN #NONE OF THE SONGS WERE A MISS— lord i remember how people criticized that album in its release and how fans are worried about the dubstep-y #vibe (me too cuz “yo idk much about music but how will andy & joe do this live im sorry im dumb 😭”) #then again none of their songs in their wholeass discography is a fricking miss anyways /absolutely biased #even their covers are fun to listen like I Wanna Be Like You??? That sht is on repeat lmao. I Wann Dance With Somebody?? good sht dawg #I think my second fave album is either Folie & Save Rock and Roll? Just cuz Folie is my vibe and SRAR were all dhxjkwjfiaokeixiw <33 #Every fan loves Infinity On High for sure— Golden & ILALWTWIATTGYO (me & you) makes me sob every time #broooo the raw ass line of “I saw God crying at the reflection of my enemies and all the lovers with no time for me” #and “the best way to make it through with hearts & wrists intact is to realize two of the three ain't bad. aaaIIINT BAAAAAADDD—” #for folie a deux there's not a damm instance where I did not feel sadness over What A Catch Donnie. Dawg. The way Elton John sings his part #too bro 😭😭😭😭 #AND HOLYYY SHT THE AFTER(LIFE) OF A PARTY PHCCKKK I FORGOT HOW THAT NEVER FAILS TO MAKE ME HOLD IT IN HSJDJKSOSID #i would skip that song cuz it makes me so sad sometimes 😭😭😭😭 #OKAY YOU KNOW WHAT LET ME RETHINK MY ORDER OF FAVE ALBUMS HAHAHAHHAHA #“I'm a stitch away from making it AND A SCAR AWAY FROM FALLING APART. APART. BLOOD CELLS PIXELATE AND EEEYEESS DILATE- KISS AWAY THE TEARS #AND KILLS ON THE MOUTH OF AAAALLLL. MY FRIIIEEENDS—“ PHHHHCCKCKKKSIEOS 😭😭😭😭😭😭 #JDJAI WAIT AND THE ENTIRETY OF SOPHOMORE SLUMP #OKAY I NEED TO STFU IN THESE TAGS HAHAHAHAHHA #okay to defend my MANIA adoration (do people still hate this album? hope not). ***Bishop's knife trick.*** #“I'm sifting through the sand.Looking for pieces of broken hourglass.Trying to get it all back—put it back together—As if the time #had never passed. I know I should walk away but I just want to let you break my brain and I can't seem to get a grip. no. no matter how I #live with it. thESE ARE THE LAST—“ #I'm sorry. the delivery is just too delicious. #MANIA is a fricking mixbag of weirdly mainstream inspirational songs- to suddenly; drugs- to actually being unhinged- to one of the saddest #“im tryina redeem myself” song(s) (heaven's gate- church- and bishop's) #okay i really need to shut up 😭 #aight. i will stop.

[britneyshakespeare]

I don't know who needs to hear this but the Black Parade isn't even a tad bit overrated

#it's one of the best rock concept albums of all time let alone the 2000s #if that decade weren't so recent it'd be easier for ppl to see that #in fact since it's been getting further away in time more people do #but its acclaim is not just nostalgia for a second #if you were unfortunate enough to miss having an mcr phase as a teenager #i need you to do me a favor and go listen to that whole album. or do it again if it's been awhile #you will FEEL FEELINGS again #text post #mcr #also i will just never get over gerard way #he's just too much to be believed #if he were to have existed in a time before technology. what an injustice that'd be #not to be able to go and relive his performances of songs like wttbp and helena etc #locked in place in time forever. immortal and always compelling #gerard way is not something to describe but something to experience #makes me wonder when ppl describe famous actors and musicians from before the recording era #(well i always wonder about that) but if gerard way were sarah siddons #it would be a shame i wouldn't be able to enjoy gerard way at any moment in my life #if gerard way were fleeting... momentary... that would suck. suck so much #if these tags sound funny to you im just gonna let u know im being 100 percent fr rn

[carefulfears]

sometimes i think about the end of founder’s mutation and the baby photo of jackson that mulder had at his kitchen table and think about how scully must have given him that picture, at some point, after, and get really sad

#why do bash deadbeat dads for not being there for their kids but we never question if they just resurrected or if they have #alien supersoldiers trying to kill them #or if they miss their babies every day for the rest of their lives #txf.txt #founder’s mutation #i still think scully kept photo albums for him that whole first year #neither of them ever thought it would be the only year they had #it’s so hard to even look at s9 and see him in his nursery with his embroidered pillows and his star mobile #his solar system onesie and his books and his bunny ears hat #literally all i can think the whole time is that mulder’s not there #thinking about his emails to scully and how he said he just wanted to come home and be with them #how he didn’t even feel like he could ‘live like this’ #‘i just missed both of you so much’ #arghhhh #anyway. this show is a tragedy etc etc

☆ Day 23 (Mixtape)

"I can see your fire from light years through time, like a star that died before it ever graced my eyes Oh, slipping through my fingers (fingers, fingers) Oh, how your presence lingers (lingers, lingers)" - from 'Microscopic Fibers (dying star)', the sleeper hit off Corroded Coffin's critically acclaimed sophomore album Momento Mori Motel (1989)

#eddiemonth #eddie munson #jonathan byers #eddie x jonathan #jonie tag #featuring some lyrics that lex wrote while she was working on the album cover art which i immediately latched onto so now we're here #a song by steadily rising rock star eddie munson about how much he misses his secret boyfriend (and sometimes their shitty hometown) #if you asked he would not tell you its about that though <3 #(obviously linked lex's art in the post because its Incredible and you should all look at it if you haven't already) #my mbs #mine
