I love this band, and I love music in general but I want to appreciate movies/books/ any other art form too. I know my life has improved since finding this super nihilist music and there's definitely more art out there that might connect to me the same way. Any recommendations that feel like this band put into another form? I've watched Gummo so far.

the intro before “in this place of probation” is so fucking good (the whole song is). The feedback specifically. Question: how can I cover it? On guitar does jimmy/brian cover strings, play a harmonic, turn some way, etc? Or is it mic/bass feedback (idk if that’s a thing)? I couldn’t find any footage of it being played live, I want to try to recreate it while I still live in my parents basement w/ chill neighbors. Thanks!

my name is Kenzie I’m 20, last year i had a blast going to shows at houses/ other small venues, but I’m not really close with those friends anymore. I want to keep going to punk shows, if anyone here wants someone to go with hit me up yeah I can go alone but this stuff is better with friends!

Hi everyone, im not sure if this is allowed but I was wondering if anyone in the Seattle area would be down to start a cover band or even just talk music, Ive been obsessed with this genre and it would be fun asf to play shows and practice with people who like this type of music, my friend who put me on to eyehategod in the first place doesn’t want to pick up a guitar lol. I’m a 20 year old guy. thanks everyone!

why is eyehategod considered blues influenced? specifically something in the music, or is it an aesthetic thing, something else?

Hi everyone my name is Kenzie, Im a 20 yo beginner guitar player mainly looking for friends to play with, nothing serious yet until I get better. I like eyehategod, Alice In Chains, leechmilk, Black Sabbath.

I’m starting a 2 year program in the fall, and I just have one question. Do you ever have to work on military aircraft, when working at an airline not advertised as such (like united). if this is an unavoidable part of the career I’ll pick something else.

That’s all, thanks

Hi everyone, I'm 20 years old currently taking my 2nd quarter of nursing prerequisite classes at a community college, and before that i was taking engineering prerequisite classes at a 4 year university for 5 quarters. I have a CNA certification on the books for this summer.

I originally wanted to go into civil engineering because I think construction is really interesting and its a good industry to be in, but I got lazy, did badly in a lot of my classes and switched to nursing because I do like to "work with my hands" as they say as opposed to being in an office. I try to compare the two, and if im being honest with myself I would much rather have a hands on job that isn't back breaking like being a carpenter/roofer.

On one hand, I think the popular wisdom would be to go into engineering. My favorite thing was fixing my car when I had one and my dream job has always been to be a mechanic or carpenter, but I wrote off the trades as a career because I think my future self's knees will thank me for hitting the books, which I still think is wise- lock in and study so you can build and fix stuff from your air conditioned office's computer, and get to walk the site for like half your day if you work onsite and do whatever engineers do at a construction site. I'm settling a bit, but overall this sounds like a good life- this is hard to admit to myself because as much as I deny it, I kind of did give up on engineering because I kept bombing exam after exam.

On the other hand, the attractive thing about nursing is that I get to "work with my hands" (this sounds callous but am I wrong?) and get some mechanical satisfaction from bones and joints and hearts being fixed from whatever I end up doing for the patient. Yeah it's not getting to rebuild an engine but I'll have the money and the knees to hoop/snowboard with on my 3 days off after i sleep off the consecutive 12 hour shifts. This also sounds like a good life also with some settling.

All this being said I still fantasize about getting a toolbox and fixing cars or machinery all day. I see the third option being some sort of physically easier trade, I've been considering biomedical technology recently, which sounds like a blast but it seems niche and like I'm giving up on a 4 year degree, and it might have another catch I'm missing.

So, what should I do in the fall quarter? What should I work towards? Do I need to hear, "STFU and do your engineering homework bro"? Thanks for reading!

I started like a year ago but I never really practiced that consistently. I know just 3 songs (rooster, nutshell, and in the pines), the basic chords, and the C and G major scales (but jack about the music theory, I just know what the frets are). I want to play with other people, am I ready to go to open mics/jams and if not what should I work on next? thanks
