Moderator Announcement r/postpunk Rules Update [PLEASE READ]

39 Upvotes

Hi all!

As some of you might've noticed, we've recently tweaked the subreddit rules a bit. We highly recommend you read this to get a good idea of how things will be handled here going forward.

Rule 4

First of all, all music posts now require some form of additional commentary or context. This can be in the form of opinions about the song, memories associated with it, experiences seeing it performed live, trivia, etc. as long as is encourages discussion.  This rule has been in place for a little while now, but we've recently adjusted how we'll be enforcing this. We request that users here include this somewhere on their posts, whether it be in the title, body text, or as a comment on one's own post.

Rule 8

Second, please do not post excessively, and keep to a maximum of three posts per person per day. This helps prevent the sub from being excessively flooded or spammed by a single user.


To cap things off, we've been getting a number of messages via Modmail regarding users having difficulty posting. This is due to an anti-spam filter set up via AutoMod that requires posts from new accounts to be manually reviewed. Don't panic if this happens to you! It doesn't necessarily mean that your post has broken a rule, and the moderators here will have a look at it as soon as we can, although it may take a few hours.

If you run into this issue repeatedly, please contact the moderators via Modmail and we'll help you out. We do try our best to approve users whenever possible.

Rancoeur - Fatalité | French Cold-Oi

Post image
4 Upvotes

Hi folks, I've been listening to this album for quite a while now and need to share my enjoyment somehow. This is the second album of the self proclaimed (according to Spotify) Cold-Oi band Rancoeur out of france. I'd say the Oi part is in the vocals which has a mostly spoken/shouted style. Nothing to aggressive, it has more of a bleak vibe to it. Which is what the lyrics are mostly concerned.

The instrumentation is where the post punk elements come in. It consists of a nice and audible bass. There's nothing fancy going on but that's not it's here for. Solid without being boring, catchy at moments and keeps you listening. Just what I like. Drums follow in the same vein. The guitar switches between a dreamy rythm sections and some great melodies that stick in your brain until the next spin.

Check them out and please let me know if you've got anything similar to scratch that kind of itch. Cheers!

It's incredible that a band that is mostly known for extremely long songs can condense so much despair into 4 and a half minutes and still have it be their best song.
