>>179064>>179065>But I'm more concerned about what it does in terms of sound than wanking over name-brand equipmentYeah I meant it like that, the brand-loyalist stuff is dumb. You gotta use things that are the best and not care about brand
>If you're really dedicated, you'll put up with crappy equipment if you have toIt goes for everything in life. You gotta have passion and heart, there's no getting around it. I like to say, don't do anything in life half-assed, you gotta give it the full ass! Lul.
>I don't necessarily even ask for originality as long as the end result is well executedAgreed but people have lost grip on the fundamentals of creating art and the principles of design, how to truly create and not just rip-off.

>It's kind of hard to appeal to me aesthetically at the point I'm at thoughYeah once you've seen or listen to a certain amount of media you get into the deep cuts, and then once you've experience the deep cuts, there's nothing left at a certain point. Well, there's always something left to watch or hear but you get what I mean
>liking XasthurMy favorite album of his is probably Telepathic with the Diseased. I think you would like that Lurker of Chalice "S/T" album too
>I also listened to Mysterious Semblance by Striborg after you brought him up. Too bad I can't even find that one on Soulseek.One of the Rutracker's for him is working, thats how I got his discography. Did you like him? I love the ambient pieces he does. Very true to the spirit of black metal
>I get not liking the party-animal lifestyle so many of those guys embraced, but frankly the glam metal guys seem to me like they'd be a lot easier to get along with than the grunge ones. I might be temperamentally closer to the latter, but they also came across as being more snooty, whiny, and "socially conscious."Post too long. Click here to view the full text.
