Quick reminder that IKEA is evil, raping the planet and makes garbage furniture for not great prices :)

i'm not gonna vouch for authenticity but mexican and texmex is pretty standard fare in pretty much any medium sized town (in Germany)

Laios is that you?

Bewildered, flabbergasted,
Utterly confuddled.

Just checking, youre being sarcastic right?

Thanks for the sanity check!

You mentioned blocking me so whatever, ill still write this:

Nothing i wrote was hostile. I simply pointed it out. And it was already clear (to me) from the OP amd their first comment teply.

I'm not sure why you took such offense, maybe look into that? It's very valuable to be able to take normal criticism.

They wrote they are going to go to the police, and i find your advice kinda not great, safety wise.

Why does everyone read it that way. They wrote they'll go to the police. Besides that, theyre looking for steps they may have missed

might be that the previous poster just went by questionable prejudices, not by the actual characters.

Heh nice, thanks some more names to add to the mix!

Always cool to hear something fresh that breaks the mold a bit

I can kinda see that! I do enjoy when things feel handmade still. In the same vein, I was listening to Unhallowed Deliverance recently and while their stuff is absolutely down my alley, on several songs the bass sounds straight up MIDI. Cant explain it any other way but now I cant unhear it.

Lorna Shore were fantastic live btw, saw them in a medium / smallish venue and that was so much more visceral than on the records.

Btw ended up listening to Accept from further back but as with the stadium shows, it was too far away to "feel live" if that makes sense. From a certain distance people also dont cheer or clap and vibe anymore so im just standing in this slient crowd away from a great party

I'm with you on the stadium thing. Maybe we're just old now :D
Although at the festival i meant to see Accept close up but my (same age) friend who "had a plan" parked us in like row 2 of the neighbouring stage so he'd be ready for.... Scorpions.. Staring at Accept on the screen while getting completely shrecked by the speaker wall.

Also, i somehow clocked LS as metalcore but im terrible with genres.. I only recently dipped into the heavier stuff via some smaller death core artists, then death metal and black metal. Not sure why anything-core isn't catching "us" as much as the younguns.

Fun to see Papa Roach (and gojira further up) brought up, as they were the two first bands to be announced for next wacken... Aaand a lot of my camp mates went "meh" and "who?"

Thats kinda what kicked this question off for me.

I was also contemplating Dragon Force. Feels more niche, but almost anyone with some inclination for rock music has peobably heard through the fire and flames at some point.

Adore Mastodon, but yeah feels more "niche". Couple of years ago I saw them in a tiny, seedy venue - great show but I'd be surprised to see them as a main headliner for example.

~every LP fan since Meteora lmao

You're right, but its still funny after 20 years

Ah great, another one. How the fuck do these assholes keep performing

Glad i never listened to their stuff

Fair point.

In that sense, what would be the biggest current headliner you can think of? Something every festival goer would lose their mind over on the line up.

I think what im also looking for/wondering about is what the younger generations are getting into the genre over. Like for me that was the numetal wave with SOAD, Linkin Park.. Still huge names and shaped a generation imo.

You're probably right. So still same old same old ^^

Are the younger generations also still on Metallica you think?
