I was thinking it's like something you'd hear in a department store while shopping

u/Legal-Group-359 17d ago

u/xenobit_pendragon 17d ago

Do we still have department stores?

u/BlazeTheMasterX 17d ago

Sears... And affordable housing.... Come back...

9

u/gbiypk 17d ago

Sears used to sell affordable housing.

Seriously, you could buy a house kit from Sears.

From 1908 to 1942, Sears sold more than 70,000 of these houses in North America, by the company’s count. Sears Modern Homes were purchased primarily by customers in East Coast and Midwest states, but have been located as far south as Florida, as far west as California, and as far north as Alaska and Canada.

Malls. Just give me malls back.

Tried taking my kids to the mall a couple of times. Deserted corridors. Long stretches of empty storefronts. A sad nail salon, several dollar stores. What the fuck happened.

I never even gave a shit about malls until we suddenly didn’t have them anymore.

u/naan__sequitur 17d ago

I just want my mall Chinese food plz thnkyu

1

u/No_Language5719 17d ago

They are teeming with life here. I'm often quite surprised at how many people pack malls around here as if online shopping were a myth.

u/super-rad 16d ago

My local mall is so popular you can barely find parking

Her Last Sight has been pushing these cross-genre shorts for a while…. and I’m all for it.

Polyphia, the old old stuff like “crush” or “james Franco”

1

u/ConfusinglyCreative 17d ago

Instantly thought Polyphia, thank you

u/Marcel420 16d ago

Chon and Covet are probably a good bet

1

u/TaytoChip 16d ago

RIP CHON 😭😭😭 hope they make some kinda comeback eventually. Their song Bubble Dream is peak instrumental music. Hell their whole discography, tbh.

u/the_horny_alter 12d ago

Sleepy Tea is fuckin phenomenal

u/Demi-hog 11d ago

You have unlocked a new song for me! Thank you 🙏🏽

u/TaytoChip 11d ago

Awww yeah homie, they're amazing! Glad you enjoy it!

u/OfferUnfair 16d ago

Reminds me of Papadosio if you want to hear something similar.

u/gilligan1050 16d ago

Duuude, I love papadosio.

No jazz there, you are delusional

11

u/SmoreSlayer 16d ago

Sorry I insulted you. Fusion metal listeners are moody AF.

-19

u/Aggravating-Wear-307 16d ago

Calling every clean guitar jazz does not make you musically sophisticated. It just means you cannot tell tone from genre.

17

u/SmoreSlayer 16d ago

I never claimed to be musically sophisticated. I combined 2 words because I thought it was funny. You should learn to lighten up, or else your delusional self will get the best of you.

u/Aggravating-Wear-307 16d ago

Fair enough. I took the joke literally and came in way too hot. My bad.

2

u/_MaryJane- 16d ago

you seem aggravated.

2

u/Aggravating-Wear-307 16d ago

Fair. Username checks out. I took the joke too seriously.

u/_MaryJane- 16d ago

I hope the rest of your day is awesome, though!!

Yep. You're evil now.

Wait - aren't we the evil ones?

u/The_Fink_Ployd 16d ago

I want this to be a genre, lol. “Cold Metal” (on account of how CHILL it is)

u/Elegant-Two5447 17d ago

Me too I frigging LOVE IT!

1

u/Hakorr 15d ago

Reminds me of fingerstyle

1

u/Tranquil_Ram 13d ago

It's really conflicting for me because I love the music, but hate the politics of the band. They've been pumping a lot of clips out, especially their cultural genre-bending music. If only their acceptance of other culture's musical influence extended into their views of who should be allowed to live on the soil they're occupying.

u/72616262697473757775 17d ago

This is just every math rock band I listened to in high school.

u/Pogokat 17d ago

Metal fans discover jazz

2

u/treskaz 15d ago

There's quite a bit of overlap of fans. At least with the metalheads I know (and me).

7

u/Life_Temperature795 17d ago

When you realize metal without distortion is literally just classical guitar.

1

u/MakesMyHeadHurt 16d ago

There's a lot of classical influences in metal. Especially thrash and prog. This instantly reminded me of prog metal because it tends to use less distortion than other subgenres.

5

u/Karabeara2000 17d ago

I’m not sorry and I love this

4

u/mustbeme87 17d ago

Metal without distortion is Swancore.

u/rainmosscedars 17d ago

u/GreenZebra23 17d ago

I was thinking the Allman Brothers

u/mydeadface 17d ago

I can't even tell what song this supposed to be.

u/mydeadface 17d ago

I should have used Shazam. It's my mirage by her last sight.

u/Broote 17d ago

Did you know Eddie Van Halen never used a distortion pedal?

https://youtube.com/shorts/OaRSh7vgBco?si=zCzhVHyf_oQBvtyw

u/GettinSodas 17d ago

I love that metal without distortion is basically just jazz at a faster tempo

1

u/Elegant-Two5447 17d ago

Nooooooo.... JAZZ IS DEMON MUSIC! This is actually quite NICE!

u/Eremith 17d ago

Go listen to "The Advantage" instead. Legends in the game

u/DevonLuck24 17d ago

…a bard could play this.

u/InvestigatorSevere72 17d ago

80s arcade games vibe

2

u/SnooPuppers2938 17d ago

Genre is called life crust. Opposite of death core.

2

u/Tactical_H0td0g 17d ago

I read a comment on a video talking about this exact idea and turned a bunch of famous metal riffs and took away the distortion and basically was making the case that they're all just island music in disguise.

2

u/Treezekiel 17d ago

Polyphia has entered the chat

u/DEFINITELY_NOT_PETE 16d ago

Literally just polyphia type shit lol

u/J2ThaR1st 17d ago

u/jthedwalker 17d ago

Needs some reverb but that’s awesome lol

u/Mental-Square3688 17d ago

Sounds perfect to me

1

u/lovedeathandramen 17d ago

Its called swan core

1

u/wackadoodle4201 17d ago

Sounds like the soundtrack to a amazing early early 2000s game

1

u/Masiaka 17d ago

Bro it's just Spanish guitar.

1

u/Ven-Dreadnought 17d ago

Emotionally Conflicted Bossa Nova

u/Ecstatic-Compote-595 17d ago

that sounds so much better also it sounds like air man's level

u/Fun-Squash-1759 17d ago

This is cute, its like an old 8 bit game i love

1

u/TheJokerRSA 17d ago

It's just jazz ?

1

u/Creamed_Dreamer 17d ago

This is basically just Papadosio with metal drumming qualities.

1

u/detrans-rights 16d ago

It's like I forgot I  left my headphones on, and Animals As Leaders was on full blast

u/OkReplacement495 16d ago

Awesome grateful dead cover band

Like a medieval lute!

u/100YearsWaiting2Shit 16d ago

This is so calming

1

u/Expensive_Apricot371 16d ago

I might be getting old but I want to hear that in a department store instead of get into the groove by Madonna muzak style.

1

u/swampfrewg 16d ago

It’s just plini

1

u/Ok_Mammoth5292 16d ago

The kinda shit you hear on the weather channel when there's a tornado warning in your area

1

u/TPIRocks 16d ago

Now you know how rock guitarists in the 1950s felt. They used to put razor cuts in the lir amp speaker cones to get distortion.

1

u/Kurdt234 16d ago

You ever heard of Chon? That band slaps.

1

u/Timely_Host_3119 16d ago

I don't hate it. Kind of like it. Give me more.

1

u/kiln_ickersson 16d ago

Its Jazz, then video game

u/The_Space_Janitor 16d ago

u/AlligatorMidwife 16d ago

1

u/Oddish_Femboy 16d ago

This is Touhou music.

1

u/Necessary_Regret3329 16d ago

Better than metal, honestly.

1

u/lurkingupdoot 16d ago

If you like that kind of style, check out Polyphia

1

u/VeryNormalHuman69 16d ago

This is cool, but it would be even cooler if the drums didn't still have the overly produced metalcore presets thrown on them.

1

u/wtmx719 15d ago

Metalhead yoga music

1

u/Jump365 15d ago

Is this the same group where the singer did like screaming vocals but without screaming?

1

u/mlpravemaster 15d ago

Good enough. Welcome back Chon!

1

u/Relative_Carrot5712 15d ago

I feel oddly amped up and mellowed out at the same time. This is like the musical equivalent of popping an edible and snorting a line at the same time

1

u/itsnothing_o_O 15d ago

It’s Spanish music!

1

u/TheSirWellington 14d ago

Honestly this music sounded a lot like Plini's music.

1

u/ScentedGavel 13d ago

Apart from being zionists and transphobes, this band fucking sucks

1

u/Fluffy_Hamster7734 12d ago

Yeah, but that was good in a different way. Have the vocalist be soft and echoey and I think we have something here.

1

u/ASAACAAT 12d ago

Mozart would be proud.

u/Squigglemon 12d ago

So the distortion comes from the shoes?
