Hegemon keep your musical taste to yourself ffs. I like the vibes in So Far Away tbh. Like sone sort of bittersweet Scummy triumph. But they have to be several better by metal bands. Maybe like, most of them.

i wouldn't even call them metal, they were like radio-friendly post-grunge for sentimental Scumbags (redundant expression but ykwim).

Not all Scumbags are sentimental afaik. But I wouldn't give the grunge or "post-grunge" mantle to a band like Staind because it would probably get me mocked irl by my hipster acquaintances. I am a hipster irl btw.

image and place within the hipster fag taste hierarchy is the predominant decision making matrix for its adherents

Prole nu-hard rock has its own place, I think, and calling it "metal" anything misunderstands that place

They're pretty much a Joke bc Fred Durst thrust them onto the world and you can't live that down. I like plenty of songs that Loser hipsters would laugh at btw. But I can't listen to Staind's music without picturing long contemplative youtube comments with run-on sentences written by Scumbags on opiates.

It's much easier to enjoy music when you don't spend any time learning about the associated metadrama. No idea what Fred Durst has to do with staind, and I certainly am not going to find out -- I listen and if I like it I listen some more, and if I don't I turn it off. Childlike music consumption is much more pleasing.

Its funny, i viewed the lyrics much differently. My ex and i ended up as addicts, after an accident and dental work, & i kept it together much better than he did, for much longer. He was much smarter on the streets, i could keep a job, that type of thing. We both would've been lost without the other, but that doesn't mean we didn't have some really awful fights or seething anger over what we thought was someone pulling less weight, etc. I never thought he was mentally messing with me, no gaslighting, no sick version of love, just a sick version of himself. We grew up together, i knew him before, so i knew his love was pure... That's what was so heartbreaking. I used to curse at God for giving me my soul mate at 14, just to turn us into junk bombs lol.

For some reason I don't quite understand, these guys are always performing at casinos. Cowgod help me out here. What is it about these guys that makes people who are already at a casino go, oh shit, let's go see Staind while we're here?

Bad causal analysis. What actually happens is that casinos book them because:

- Staind isn't selling out stadiums, and casinos are smaller venues

- they'll pull in a key casino demographic: middle aged proles
