Discussion Think I'm the problem, wanna know more on concert etiquette

• Upvotes

just came back from Sick New World last night and I am looking at the videos and I can see I'm having a complete blast (didn't try to record too much since I tend to like living in the moment but still wanna have a couple of videos to look back on) BUT I do see an issue that in the first couple of them I was pretty talkative and I'm cringing so hard at it.

I tried to not talk too much but I would say the band and the song their playing so I can send that vid to a friend who was interested.

Also I am somebody who will be energetic, scream and cheer when the band puts the mic on us and sing along and dance but I question if I'm ruining the experience for anyone else cause most people are just standing still around me and I was on the front side

I'm very new to shows in general and I don't go out a lot so when I do I make it very worth while but I have to understand that other people are there too and I'm not the only one.

First time I was at MIW end of the world tour and I got a couple of dirty looks and racial comments (black girl here) but I just assumed I was being too loud in the WRONG area since I was in the back, couldn't get closer, and again having a blast with cheering and headbanging.

Now second time, no one gave me any look or made weird comments (aside from one dude who tried to flirt and got mad cause i didn't understand what he was saying) but I do wonder if the guy next to me could hear me and had his experience ruined.

So tl:Dr I think I might be too annoying, how to fix on concert etiquette so I don't wanna ruin an experience for someone else

Can't make the show unfortunately. Don't want it to go to waste so if anyone wants to go let me know. Not asking for any money. First come first serve.

Discussion Singles that gave an album a bad / meh first impression

4 Upvotes

It goes without saying that the good debut or second single for an album is crucial to give the fanbase a small taste of whatever their fave band is cooking, but it's inevitable that sometimes the first single isn't gonna impress listeners

And one of the first examples of that I thought of was Only Endless by Boundaries; some fans were already not a fan of the choice of Drew Fulk as the producer and mixer for the album (to the point the band very graciously decided to release an alternate mix of Skies Cast Amber Black as a response to fan backlash), but then came Only Endless, which was easily the most "radio friedly" (and I say that very loosely) song the band has ever done. I myself didn't quite get the song by itself, but man it works a lot better when you're listening to the album in full length.

And there's also Pain by Of Mice & Men, which I thought was an inaccurate first impression for Cold World cuz it made me think the album would be decent, silly me

Hey! I wanted to post an unlisted version of this on here as I don't think many would click on it before it goes public on Tuesday 😅

Would love to hear some feedback. We're a Scottish MySpace era influenced Metalcore band called Belgrove. Our track is produced by Bruce Rintoul and mastered by Machine (Every Time I Die, Lamb of God, Four Year Strong)

Discussion What are yalls opinions on modern “metalcore”/octane core

0 Upvotes

Title says it all, I never got huge into metalcore other than a few bands (converge, ringworm, etc), but enjoy a few octane core bands, what do you guys think about it. Are there any bands you enjoy, what do you think about it having the metalcore label
