Date: June 5th, 2025 12:49 PM Author: cowgod (cowgod) Hegemon keep your musical taste to yourself ffs. I like the vibes in So Far Away tbh. Like sone sort of bittersweet Scummy triumph. But they have to be several better by metal bands. Maybe like, most of them. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5733595&forum_id=2#48989132) |

Date: June 5th, 2025 7:33 PM Author: cowgod (cowgod) Not all Scumbags are sentimental afaik. But I wouldn't give the grunge or "post-grunge" mantle to a band like Staind because it would probably get me mocked irl by my hipster acquaintances. I am a hipster irl btw.

image and place within the hipster fag taste hierarchy is the predominant decision making matrix for its adherents |

Date: June 6th, 2025 9:11 PM Author: Leo Frank's Orphanage (FAGGOTCHIPPER / Hegemon) this is about right (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5733595&forum_id=2#48993500) |

Date: June 6th, 2025 9:09 PM Author: Leo Frank's Orphanage (FAGGOTCHIPPER / Hegemon) Yeah, I don't listen to them when I want actual metal lol
Prole nu-hard rock has its own place, I think, and calling it "metal" anything misunderstands that place |

Date: June 6th, 2025 9:29 PM Author: cowgod (cowgod) They're pretty much a Joke bc Fred Durst thrust them onto the world and you can't live that down. I like plenty of songs that Loser hipsters would laugh at btw. But I can't listen to Staind's music without picturing long contemplative youtube comments with run-on sentences written by Scumbags on opiates.

Date: June 6th, 2025 9:31 PM Author: Leo Frank's Orphanage (FAGGOTCHIPPER / Hegemon) It's much easier to enjoy music when you don't spend any time learning about the associated metadrama. No idea what Fred Durst has to do with staind, and I certainly am not going to find out -- I listen and if I like it I listen some more, and if I don't I turn it off. Childlike music consumption is much more pleasing. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5733595&forum_id=2#48993547) |

Date: June 6th, 2025 9:30 PM Author: cowgod (cowgod) @jewel8425 2 years ago Its funny, i viewed the lyrics much differently. My ex and i ended up as addicts, after an accident and dental work, & i kept it together much better than he did, for much longer. He was much smarter on the streets, i could keep a job, that type of thing. We both would've been lost without the other, but that doesn't mean we didn't have some really awful fights or seething anger over what we thought was someone pulling less weight, etc. I never thought he was mentally messing with me, no gaslighting, no sick version of love, just a sick version of himself. We grew up together, i knew him before, so i knew his love was pure... That's what was so heartbreaking. I used to curse at God for giving me my soul mate at 14, just to turn us into junk bombs lol. A cheerleader with a comp sci degree & a 3-sport all state athlete honor roll kids that end up with huge records & health problems, all bc of perdue pharma...

Date: June 6th, 2025 9:26 PM Author: Edmonton Oilers For some reason I don't quite understand, these guys are always performing at casinos. Cowgod help me out here. What is it about these guys that makes people who are already at a casino go, oh shit, let's go see Staind while we're here? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5733595&forum_id=2#48993530) |

Date: June 6th, 2025 9:28 PM Author: Leo Frank's Orphanage (FAGGOTCHIPPER / Hegemon) Bad causal analysis. What actually happens is that casinos book them because: - Staind isn't selling out stadiums, and casinos are smaller venues - they'll pull in a key casino demographic: middle aged proles |

Date: June 6th, 2025 9:36 PM Author: Edmonton Oilers How much is each band member pulling down for playing It's Been A While and Outside for the 5000th time in their careers at a 2000 seater with an average ticket price of $50?
Let's just say they're grossing 100k per show and half of it goes to expenses manger agent blah blah. OK 4 guys they're each getting 10 grand or so to do the show.
Looks like they're playing 23 nights this year so they work for 2 months they each get 250k. Singer probably gets more in his deal because it's not split evenly. Then you have merch and streaming royalties and shit kick in another 100k from other sources.
OK so roughly you're making the salary of a doctor who can take 10 months off. Not bad. And you get to be Scummy and hang out at casinos probably get a bunch of random perks and nail aging groupies. Your youngest groupie is probably 35 at this point.

Date: June 6th, 2025 9:37 PM Author: Edmonton Oilers Disturbed I think is a lot bigger. They can draw a much larger crowd. Their biggest song now is a cover of the Sound of Silence. They managed to cultivate a younger audience unlike Staind who was reliant on alternative radio and active rock stations to get new fans.
