Youtube suddenly recommended me some music I listen to some 14 years ago. Unlocked some memories that didn’t need unlocking

    A7X imo was great up through Nightmare. I’ve The Rev died, the sound changed too much and I really dislike their new stuff. I get it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but I’m not sure what makes it “embarrassing”.

      I used to absolutely love Little Piece of Heaven in middle school, that song makes me cringe so fucking bad now. I wouldn’t say everything they made was embarrassing (Shepard of Fire will always kick ass) but goddamn they have a few songs that just make you cringe.

        I love A Little Piece of Heaven. Lyrics aside, I really enjoy the beat and sound scape of the song. In some songs the lyrics are the focal point, like So Far Away, but usually, I just think of lyrics as another instrument. If it sounds good and they aren’t saying some bigoted shit or something like that, I don’t really care too much.

        I’ve been getting into the band Dayseeker recently and I love their sound, but lyrically, it’s a lot a sad boi, break-up drama. To me that’s a little worse than a song about jilted lovers stabbing each other, “50 fucking times”, necrophilia, and undead marriage. Neither embarrass me though. If others around me find it cringy, which is reasonable, it doesn’t make the song any less of a banger.
