Half those bands are actually good though. Disturbed guy is a comrade (nevermind apparently Draiman is vaguely pro-zionist =( I just remembered him correctly pointing out that Trump was a symptom and not a cause of hatred in the US) Nirvana obviously Red Hot Chili Peppers newer stuff wasn’t as good but they’re still all time greats, Korn, Godsmack and Linkin Park are all good nu metal IMO.

I definitely can relate to the cringe parts though too. Our teenage selves were a land of contrasts.

Hybrid Theory got me into rock and is still one of my favorite albums so I def agree. Too bad most of the adults I know who listen to this music are complete chuds.

Paul Ryan said his favorite band was RATM you can’t blame musicians like that who are so in your face with their politics being completely misunderstood (or more commonly deliberately misrepresented) by chuds.

I don’t understand how Chuds don’t understand RATM hates them.

Chud Rise Against fans are almost as bad. Like how can you listen to stuff like that as a chud. Multiple of their songs literally advocate for burning Amerika. It’s not as in your face as RATM, but still

My local rock station has a segment where the host looks at pictures of women and tells the audience how hot they are

rock radio station personality must be the primary career path for guys who are your friend’s older brother who works at the gas station and smokes you out

In my experience it’s the career path for people who collect comic books and nerd out about music trivia & audio gear. How these shock jocks got hired let alone popular is beyond me.

From my experience, usually just because they’re fucking weird and go to all the events or know whoever owns the station.

I feel like 90% of them are likely regional air guitar champions.

They also played a Dio song the day Ronnie James Dio died. I don’t mean the anniversary of his death. I mean that one day that he died.
