The Music Thread

Finally got a physical copy of this album. I love the cover art, simple but beautiful.

Time to ruin the vibe by posting this slab of utter punishment and I’m not even sorry. This album is disgustingly, disgustingly heavy. The sound of human flesh being put through a meat grinder. There’s absolutely no levity here, just dark and darker. The grinding industrial elements only serve to make things feel even moee oppressive.

Don’t they use that over the speaker system at Guantanamo Bay?

No, apparently they played Drowning Pool. Having to listen to shit like that is literal torture, though - whereas listening to this LLNN album is actually like having a transcendental experience.

Another album that came out 30 years (and one month) ago. Fuck, I’m old. :grimacing:

So is opening the Lament Configuration, or using the Event Horizon’s gravity drive, and about as enjoyable.

You gonna post some music or just be rude?

You gonna understand the nature of a joke based on exaggeration, or just be thin-skinned and rude? You can trash talk music you don’t like but can’t take it for what you do, really?

Whatever, bro. Post music you like instead of just shitting on stuff you clearly don’t care about.

Whoa, I don’t know where this hostility is coming from or what your deal is, but you would think a person can listen to the music others post here and give an opinion on it. That’s usually another reason why a thread like this exists. And considering the description you gave of the music that was the subject of my posts, I would think you would appreciate the joke. Good to know that some good-natured ribbing is off the table with you.

You want me to post music when coming here? Alright. Here’s some.

Just posting stuff like “It sounds like music used to torture people in GITMO” with no context, for no reason, is needlessly inflammatory towards something someone else posted in earnest. That’s not good natured ribbing. You say it’s a joke but also that its your opinion, so which is it?

Dude, your own description was “slab of punishment,” among other comments. You clearly went over the top with a sense of dark humor. I was saying I didn’t like it, but applying a similar humor to do so, just to try to get a laugh. If you’re posting in earnest, maybe try not to sound like you’re prepping someone up to hear something that’s supposed to be awful but you might like it anyway. I was clearly exaggerating, but you got all offended after smack-talking it yourself. Calm down and don’t be so intensely descriptive, either jokingly or otherwise, if you can’t take receiving it back. And let me remind you, that while I may have made such comments about your music, you made a personal insult towards me, which was unnecessary. A simple “please stop making fun of my music” would have been sufficient for me to get the point, not trying to start an argument with a personal attack. I don’t like getting off to bad starts with people, and I’m sorry that my comments were in poor taste and that I misjudged how they might be received, but that’s no need to escalate. Can we start over and be cool, now?

You want to keep it plain and simple then? Fine, I thought it sounded pretty bad, and I don’t know how much of that is because I genuinely didn’t like it, and how much was because of how you built it up. please try something else a little more soothing.

I think you just misunderstood Quinn’s original appreciation of his own music. He likes that really hard-rock, metal stuff. He means “slab of punishment” as a compliment to it.
You’re new here, I get it, you didn’t know that.

'Round here though, we don’t really put each other’s music tastes down. If ya like it, ya like it, if you don’t ya move on.
“Do they play that in Guantanamo?” did seem a bit out-of-context. Also the “it’s like these other boring things, and as enjoyable as that (i.e.: not)”

I wouldn’t exactly call that good-natured ribbing, though I can understand why you may have meant well, playing along with his vocabulary.

Why don’t we end this conversation here and find that soothing sound you’re looking for…

Speaking of music they play at Gitmo. Just how stupid and self-unaware do you have to be to use RATM as torture music?

I accidentally saw a Mel Torme concert once… Nick Rivers he is not. Good time though!
