>>isten to is once just for the sake of witnessing how fucked up the lyrics is. Ecstacy Suicidal Idol.
Will try man.

>>I think opeth is quite popular tho. Even among general music listener and not only metal listener.
They might be or might not be. I dont feel like they are. I know if tehre is any death metal banda that most popular in general audience than it would be something like Opeth or Death or Cnnibal Corpse but thats not saying anything coz death metal in general isnt much appreciated outside the metal genre. If there is a genre thats most popualr even for mainstream music then it would be nu metal. Bands like Slipknot, System of a down and linkin park. The reason is that nu metal isnt entirely metal its the mix of metal and others genres like hiphop, funk etc. So it clearly appeals to more people than pure metal.

>>What do you think about linkin park tho?
i think they are fine. I dont have any bad thing to say about them while I also am not big fan of their music.. I wasnt a fan of raps when I first heard them and they used to mix metal with rap pretty often so it wasnt something I was used to enjoying. Only have listened to their Hybrid Theory and it was pretty good album. Dont know much about them plus I also dont wanna explore much. But chester was infact the best singer in the nu metal genre.

>>But its still about instruments so i think may have. If it was a vocal thing i may not have noticed.
The best part about Parabola is definitely its instrumentals and it also has pretty great lyrics with things like:-
"This holy reality
This holy experience
Choosing to be here in
This body, this body holding me
Be my reminder here that I am not alone in
This body, this body holding me
Feeling eternal, all this pain is an illusion"

and

"Twirling 'round with this familiar parable
Spinning, weaving 'round each new experience
Recognize this as a holy gift and
Celebrate this chance to be alive and breathing
A chance to be alive and breathing"

Tool to me feels like the Pink Floyd of metal interms of their lyricism. Please listen to their "Vicarious" I think Ive recommended this already. If you have problem understanding what the lyrics means then Ill try to help you.

>>but i dont think i found out about whale coming from another planets anywhere. Is that supposed to be a metaphor or something?
Thats pretty much the case for every concept albums. Telling things directly would look desperate, Imagine if sangatsu author made rei kiriyama tell everyone about his depression. That would look he is trying too hard to gather sympathies no? This applies to music as well.
music like this can have many interpretation. But how I feel about the album is like this. PS: I might confuse mars and earth so think they are same.

Plus also sorry in advance for making it too long.

Ocean Planet:The intro of our main character who lives in this planet that has been devastated by war and pollution. Our mc thinks he has to go to Sirius to find the master race that guided humanity to mars millions of years ago. There is a lyrics later in Flying Whales that goes like
"The flood of earth again,
I have to find the whales.
That once did guide us to the dry lands of life".
So Im pretty confident my interpretation about this makes a little sense.

I don't think Backbone has much to offer. I think its just our mc deciding to take his journey and preparing to travel with the whales. Im not sure about this.

From the Sky: I feel like its our mc talking about his planet. How it was and what the war has caused it to be now. It also sometimes feel like its about how our mc is talking about "the life we have now is given my the aliens and now they are taking it away" with the lyrics like
"Washed away the dust and gave the new lease of life.
Its a mystical force
I grab it now and praise this lord of earth and stone
Make passage for souls awaken
So it returns to where its always been with the gods".

Unicorn is a special case to me. Sometimes I feel like its just there for melodic break but sometimes I feel like the background chanting of whales symbolizes how whales want to help our mc so they are calling him. Might be stupid though.

Where the dragon dwells and heaviest matter in the universe feels like a same song as both talks about our mc's negativity he has about not being able to save his planet.

Flying whales is basically about how he finds whales and they teach him to fly and it also consist of things he saw while travelling through spaces.

In the wilderness is about how he reached a far planet and saw how beatiful the landscapes their were. Then he realizes the true potential of nature as he truly decides he will save his planet no matter what. backed up by the lyrics
"Henceforth, I will always be there.
Planet Erth will overcome
Men destroyed, scorned and killed their lives
but the world is on the way"

World to come is where our mc had a dream of a beautiful planet and realizes it was earth before it was damaged by humans.

From Mars feels like its not about the story we are following but rather talking about how we don't know ourself. We don't know what we are capable of and every negative shit you can think of. Joe once said in an interview that "Mars symbolizes war in some cultures. Its a journey of war. But it can be war within us, our flesh, in our mind and a war with ourselves" He was asked about this song.

To Sirius is about how he reached the Sirius and now after master race taught him how to heal his planet. Lyrics with
"I come to Sirius C to learn from your frinds of old
And wish to come into being
And behold im with you . Im ready to go now
The distance and evven beyong
Recover all my forces, all the strength of the world
And feel the light into me"

Global warming is about how he finally comes back to his planet and saves it using knowledge he got from master race and now he will see his children growing.
Lyrics" We will see our children growing" meaning their planet got a new life. New beginning. Plus it also has pretty straightfowards lyrics about the outer species giving them lives. Don't know how you didn't notice this as there is literally first 2 lyrics like " Four hundred thousands years ago. they came from outer space and gave us life".

Overall its almost a perfect album in my opinion. It never says its the Whales but considering everything and heavy emphasis on whales its pretty obvious that the "god" the "outer species" the "master race" and giving them life they are talking about Whales.

>>But I still think im not much of a fan of the throat singing.
Im not either. I genuinely have a hate towards growlings but I can handle Gojira and opeth for some reason.

>> Also Im not trying to make you look bad here by telling that you made this album sound complicated.
I don't think its anything wrong with that. I feel certain way about this album. If you don't feel the same way that's fine. Plus its a completely for you to interpret how you feel the album is about. I don't think Ive made it sound complicated though. I said its about how whales guided humans to life and humans to recover their planet while also talking about things like rebirth, life and death. Sounds pretty simple honestly.

>>i have found out that the only metal bands that i listened to opeth and gojira are from freaking europe.
Ya Opeth are Swedish and Gojira are French.

>> Or maybe they could be native english speakers working on europe idk much.
Opeths are but Gojira are pure French band. They even have few French metal songs which are cool as fuck.

>> Went for drums but couldnt get my head off the electric guitars riffs. I think drums are one of the most underated instruments.
Schism has phenomenal instrumentals. My favorite part though is definitely bass. What you feel about drums is what I feel about bass. The starting bassline from Schism is so fking amazing. My favorite metal bands all excel at something. Tool has always some of the best drummings, Opeth bassist overshadows everyone in the band except for the singer and Gojira's guitar riffs doesn't sound human to me. Isnt something human can come up with.

>> Of course, all instruments need to be in sync, but Im always more biased toward the drums.
I definitely am biased towards bass. But bass are literal hardest sound to notice.

>>I can say I like it cuz i at least listened to it 15 times.
That's nice man.

>>I feel like i heard whale sounds in the background. I wonder how thay make those sounds.
They are definitely whale sounds but I too don't know how they make it. Don't think its real though. Cannot picture them going in the ocean and asking whales to help them record their chants. Idk maybe they did. Idk maybe Gojira members are the alien creatures they talked about in From Mars to Sirius.

>> I saw a guy on MAL review complaining how he came for incest sex and found boring character development.
Literally me.

>>Do you know a song called ecstacy by suicidal idol?
Ive no fking idea what the fk this is.

>>One of my friends listened to all of the taylor swit's songs to truly and detailly hate on tailor swift but he said he liked some of the early songs. The newer ones were shit.
I myself have said this every day. I too like her old songs her breakthrough songs in early 2010's. Though unlike your frnd I haven't gone out of my way to listen all of her new songs as well. Looks like a drag to me.

>>One of my friends listened to all of the taylor swit's songs to truly and detailly hate on tailor swift but he said he liked some of the early songs. The newer ones were shit.
s
People hearing 2 Opeth album is more of a surprising to me ngl. Even their most successful album isn't that popular. If there is a debate for best prog death metal band of all time. There is more chances of Opeth being in a conversation than it not being in one. But outside of this small bubble called prog metal. Opeth is pretty unknown for general music listeners. But its absolutely huge for metal listeners. Ive not seen a metal music enjoyer that hasn't heard Opeth. Gojira was even less popular than Opeth but as they did the opening of Olympics this year I think they've gotten a little more global recognition.

>>If I was blindly diving into these bands without knowing what they do I would have never noticed this prog and all.
I went in Parabola without knowing anything. Infact I didn't even know there was a thing called "prog" in music. But as soon as I heard Parabola I noticed it was something unique and something Ive never heard of and later I searched for the song in google and I knew about this "prog" thing.

>>Terra incognita and L'Enfant Sauvage. I like to watch and listened things in chronological order so I found Terra incognita first in spotify idk if its their first album
Nice man. Terra Incognita is their first album. Its the Gojira in their rawest form. Its the most aggressive albums from them. Even if its their first album, Gojira already had excellence in their technicality. Its an amazing album but the only thing I don't like about this album is that it leans more on the death metal side than the prog side. Which isn't a bad thing but it just that I want something else. L'Enfant Sauvage maybe is my favourite album from them. Its their most ambitious work. I like how this album provides an hour long of unconstrained anger while also weaving in the more calmer tracks in between. This makes the album more dynamic. Its the perfect representation of balance between calm and chaos. Which was also the theme of the album all along. This album talks about 'how an innate innocence gets corrupted by modern world. Turning it from 'calm to chaos'.

>>Looks like they tried all of what they could do in their first album.
Its funny how you feel that way coz me personally think Terra Incognita is their 2nd least 'proggy' album after The Link. While Lenfant Sauvage clearly feels like the proper prog album alongside From Mars to Sirius and The Way of All Flesh. I literally love every albums from them but every albums of them has something they excel at. They were able to create the rawest prog death sound in terra while they pretty much perfected their prog aspect at The Way of All Flesh. From Mars to Sirius is known for its intricate storytelling and being maybe the best concept album in the metal genre having immense depth while Ive already explained everything about Lenfant just above. I personally cannot choose which I like more from them. But it comes down to From mars to Sirius and lenfant sauvage. Then it should be between Terra Incognita and The way of all flesh. Their recent 2 albums has been pretty disappointing. Still great listen but doesn't feel like Gojira when they were at their best. Still some songs can compare to their peak music. Like another world, the chant and stranded.

>>Ofc the way they sing in death metal is kinda unusual so i thought the lyrics would be unusual as well.
I used to think similarly as well. From the surface level due to their vocals it feels like they are doing some satanic rituals but if you see the lyrics they maybe have the most thought provoking lyrics in music.

>>The drums are great in parabola. It sounds like the vocal and drums are not in sync but ofcourse that cannot happen.
Drums pretty much is the best thing about Tool. Its not a hot take if someone says Danny Carrey is the best metal drummer. I personally think its Mario Duplanter (Gojira drummer). If I have to compare them I will say Danny Careey drumming feels like he has more passion for drumming, he drums with his soul while Mario is clearly more technically proficient and creative than Danny. Listen to their My Last Creation. I feel like it has the best drumming from start to finish. First time I noticed Danny drumming was in Schism. Its maybe my favorite song from Tool and it also is their most popular song. You should give it a go as well. While the best Danny drumming is in Pneuma.

>>This is one song i have been listening to multiple times ofc the opeth version.
Youre liking it more now or what? I checked my stats yesterday and it looks like Solider of Fortune (opeth version) is my most played song on spotify ever while the original is 6th most played on spotify. I myself didn't noticed I like this song so much.

>>Why not listen to this absolutely now. Straight going fot it.
Ya man go for it. It has a song with 2 and a half min of same thing repeating but its amazing. It is pretty heavy album but it calms us down with a song called Unicorn midway through the album with one of the best melodic piece of music Ive ever heard.

>>Did you watch any of that losing heroine anime?
I haven't watch any of anything man. I surely will watch something someday.

>>From the title you might think its weird. But the thing is it isnt.
Ive had this same experience before. There is an anime called "a sister is all you need" and its lot more than just being some incest shit. Its quite possibly the best anime that tackles the 'passion' theme. Its definitely not potrayed better than things like Honey and Clover but they are adults The anime with teens as a cast it does the best job.

>>I underatand that but cmon everyone vibes to the popular pop musics
Im not sure about that. I personally have songs I like from all genre but I fking hate lot of popular vibey kinda songs. And If there are popular songs even I dont enjoy or vibe with then there is a huge possibility there are lot of people who are stuck in one genre of music wouldnt love them either.

>> Ofc every music has its mood but that doesnt mean they fit in every mood.
Ya thats what I meant. All type of music has to be listened in a mood that they fit in. As much as I like floyd and king crimson, I cannot listen to them all the time.

>>People around me tend to enjoy this and praise it. Maybe cuz Im not active in the real community.
As long as Im aware of Opeth community. I ve noticed albums like Ghost Reveries and Blackwater Park are considered amazing by like 99% of people while albums like soceress and heritage are generally hated by the community but Damnation has pretty balanced reviews. There are people who dont enjoy this but the album also has some cult like fan following.

>>I am enjoying the music and instrumentals for now. Its not that there are much lyrics.
There is like 10 mins of actual singing in a 10 min song. For me the song just has everything I like about music. It has amazing lyrics and great vocal performance while also having awe inspiring instrumentals. Especially at the later parts of the song. Only other songs I feel like this is Echoes and Time both by Pink Floyd.

>>Soft in the beginning and not that hard but looks like electric guitar enters later on in the song. That bit is good. Is that prog?
Even if the beginning was softer, even then the music is always changing like every minute or so. You can notice it pertty easily.

>>Havent focused on the words much yet except for some lines you wrote a few days ago.
It has pretty amazing lyrics. Very less but quality. Most people say Michael wrote this lyrics for someone he used to love but me personally find it a lot more than just being a depressive love lyrics.

>>Ok so its not that they are prog becasue they are long but they are long because they are prog?
Pretty much the case.

>>I dont know much yet but from what I have heard from you I think the longer the better.
I personally like the longer ones more. It just feels "prog" if that makes sense. but shorter ones are pretty great as well.

>> Maybe cause I was always fond of drums and I even learned it once.
Prog music has very high emphasis on instrumentals. If I have to compare. I would say pop and rap songs etc feels like they have more emphasis on singing than the instrumentals but Ive never felt same in prog music.

>>ts great man thats foe suggesting this.
Nice, Glad you liked it. I dont think this is the peak gojira interms of the technicality standpoint but its definitely their best song overall. Plus it also happens to be pretty beginner friendly. Their heavier songs can be pretty fking overwhelming for newcomers.

>>Dont know what "at the same time" is supposed to mean but I listened to parabol in the first cuz you wrote it first.
By same time I meant. Listen to both of them without rest. At the same sitting. It might be 2 song but trust me they are the same fking song. Lyrics are the same just they have different tones. Plus one of the best thing about the song is the transition from Parabol to Parabola. You mightve noticed at the end of the Parabol the volume starts to get louder and then stop immediately. And Parabola starts at where Parabol stopped. And if you listen to them seperately then youre missing out on one of the most important thing of the song. So its better if you listen the version where they are both mashed up in one single song. Its avaialble in yt.

>> Dont think it had much prog element maybe i missed it or didnt notice.
Its literally as prog as it gets.

>>I will write about other songs next time when I listen to it. Couldnt manage more than 3 today.
Thts fine man. Take ur time. There is much more to life than just entertainment.

>>ts a new rapper guy havent you heard a new rap song in the internet?
I am not in social media much so I had no idea about this song and I wish you didnt tell me either. Stopped at the 3rd line. Cannot bother to read anymore. Pure brain damage.

>>Havent played much PC games other than gta and minecraft . Didnt know games would be completed within a week
I mean I played like 85 hrs in 10/12 days so it could be finished. It definitely takes more thn a week if its the first time but I completed it fatser than I expected.

>>Should I need to listen to the original one as well? I would listen to it anyways.
You can. Both have differences even if they are exact same songs. Deep Purple being a rock band they are as rock as it gets but Opeth being a metal band. There is hint of metal elements in the song. I personally like the instrumentals of original better but I like the vocal performance of Opeth version.

>> You here do the same as well makes me wonder how many songs there might be that we would never ever listen to.
I am really into music and Im pretty sure Im unaware of more than 90% of even prog music. Let alone music as a whole.

>>Idk kinda feels like a new music journey for me. I feel like TOOL and Opeth can wait for sometime. I want to check on gojira first.
Thats nice. Youre trying to get into things you dont really know about, Thats a growth. If you enjoy or not enjoy it will come after you get out of your comfort zone and do things you wouldnt usually do.
There are lot more prog music I can suggest you but these just feels like the best and most popular ones. They have their unique sound and music they make are different, Opeth usually makes lyrics about human on personal level while Tool is more of a spiritual band and Gojira's most lyrics are focused on enviromental themes. They even have a album called "From Mars to Sirius" which is about how Whales are actually an alien creature that came to the mars long back when mars was a habitable planet and after people on the mars destory their own planet the whales guided them them to sirius (another planet). On surface level its pretty stupid but it talks about enviromental problems, technology, life, death and rebith. You can give it a go if you find time.

>>If a song is vibe-y. I automatically get vibey and whistle or humm along.
I do understand but people have different vibes. Like some people vibe to extreme metal growls likes headbanging, some might vibe with catchy hooks and beats, while some might vibe with unorthodox instrumentals.

>>Isnt that what pop songs are for? Vibing along doesnt only mean singing along it could mean humming dancing or whistling. I dont think I know the lyrics of kale dai and thamel bazar because i memorized the lyrics.
You pretty much explained yourslef why I dont really enjoy pop. Like you said its "just for vibing". Nothing wrong with that. I like pop but not all of them. I wish prime Sam Smith returns and leave his current gay persona. Idk what the fk he doing nowadays. He was so fking talented singer/ songwriter.

>>I wont follow that either. Did I found out shape of you because i follow ed sheeran? No. Did I found out about despacito because i follow louis fonsi?
You got it opposite. Its like we are in 2 opposite direction and pointing at the same point lol. By follow I mean. If I like a song I wont go and search other of the same singer's songs.

>>And since the majority of people like and consume these types of song. I think its good for social hangouts and ceremonies
This is true. But its also coz these kinda song are soemthing everyone is familiar with. So its easier.

>>But i dont think am always a fan of something loud and energetic when am alone. I might want to listen to something soothing and less loud so that i can multitask as well. Loud music could distrack you when you are alone.
Eevry genre of music has its mood. I normally always listen rock bands like floyd , zeppelin and king crimson. But if I am with my frnds we normally pop out random energetic songs. Dont matter if its metal or bollywood chammak challo kinda shit.

>>Then I found about damnation which is kinda popular so gave it a listen as well.
Damnation is fairly popular. But I dont think its popular for good reason. There are people divided btwn this album. People really be hating things when their favorite band goes off their normal voice and try something new. People really not be liking changes it seems. Same thing happened with Metallica. They were literally the gold standard for metal genre in early to mid 80's when they were rocking the thrash metal genre but they decided to go towards heavy metal to appeal to more people and the old head fans of the band started hating the new metallica. Kinda retarded. If you like their old album listen to their old album there is no point tryna downplay what the band tryna. We actually should thank metallica for the popularity metal genre has now. If they didnt experimented and tried new sound that brought more fans into metal, I dont think metal would be this popular.

>> But I did listen to 2 snngs from morningrise multiple times. To bid you farewell and that 20 mins long one.
How you feel about them? I dont really care about the 20 min song much coz Ive heard better metal songs from Opeth. But To Bid You Farewell is chefs kiss. Idk man if you actually liked black rose immortal then idk how you wont like thier other metal songs. There are like so many good metal songs in their discography.

>>So all I think is this type of musics are well suited for longer songs. As you said this type of songs are experimental so the longer the time the kore experiments??
Longer songs arent mandatory but they usually are long. I dont think bands make songs long just to be prog, they are making prog song so it automatically becomes long. Not all the times but mostly.

>>Now I wont understand all this in my first listen. Idk how may darn times you have listened to this album to understand all of this
Damnation has been my favorite album since I started getting into metal and rock. So its like 100 times probably. Though I think Ive heard Dark Side of the Moon the most. This feels like extremely hit or miss album. In my frnd circle everyone considers this the best Opeth album. In my first listen I was captivated by the somber voice and instrumentals of the songs. I came back few times just for the eearie atmosphere and instrumentals and I started to get into the lyrics and I understood that the songs has sad vibes but lyrics are pure depression.

>>I listened to it one time and decided to not like it so its just end for me. I might never pick it up again. I would never understand the depth of it now.
You dont have to. There are like 12 other albums from the band. I am little biased towards Damnation. The first Opeth song I listened was To Bid You Farewell and Hessian Peel. I liked the experimentation and metal elements of Hessian Peel but I instantly loved To Bid You Farewell. Then I heard Damnation coz they are kinda similar. And ever since Ive been a fan of Opeth in their soft era. There metal music are literally the best in whole metal genre but I am more gravitated in their softer music.

>> But is that called prog? Progressive rap?
There is a thing called prog rap but its not much. Only prog rap albums Ive heard is Stankonia but Outkast. I persoanally think there are lot of prog elements in the album. And earlier of Kanye's albums also have few prog elements.

>>Okay I will listen to every thing you mentioned in order.
Even I forgot what songs I recommended to you lol.
So Ill just write her few I maybe missed.
Born in winter, parabola (parabol+parabola at the same time), vicarious, blackwater park, bleak, flying whales, another world, stinkfist, holy diver (its not prog but its amazing), heaviest matter in the universe. and if you like extreme death metal then Visions in my Head is great as well. These songs are mostly from 3 bands. Opeth, Tool and Gojira. Tool used to be my favorite metal band untill I heard Opeth and Opeth used to be my favorite metal band untill I heard Gojira. Tool is pure prog metal while Gojira and Opeth are prog death metal. Gojira also has hints of technical metal. Technical metal is prog metal on steriods. It has even weirder instrumentals than prog.

>> Do you know a guy called 'lil jhola"
Who the fk is this guy. Lil jhola? lmao nepali guys really cant think of good names man fk. Lil only suits Lil Wayne. People tryna rip his name off all fking sucks.

>> watched 4 movies in 2 days
Thts nice. Ive been playing Elden Ring for about a week now. Im this close to completeting it.
Ive wanted to watch 12 Angry Men and Drive for long time now.

>>But yeah La La Land turned out to be mid at last. The timeskip thing ruined it all.
I understand why you said it was a waste of time.
It honestly was going good. Characters had good chemistry but then the d=ending happened. It just felt like director didnt want to have happy ending but there are better way to write sad ending. But dude ruined the entire show for me coz to me ending didnt make sense at all.

P.S. There is also one Opeth song that they covered. Soldier of Fortune. It was a song from Deep Purple. and Opeth covered it. You should listen to it as well. Its obviously somber rock song so its kinda slow and all. You should listen to it regardless. Its pretty short.

>> Have you read any of the manga from the writer of gantz.
I have not. I saw Gantz is pretty fking long that off put me like 1 year ago and I never picked it up yet. I also know Inuyashiki is from same author and I havent seen it yet. I wanna read it more than Gantz though. Ive heard Gantz is pretty bizzare manga. Like its more weird than JoJo's. Thats saying a lot. Hopefully one day Ill gather enough motivation to read one of the two soon.

>>I do like this type of songs tho. I listen to the music more for the vibe and I like to sing along when a music is being played and same lyrics is eary to rember and catch up.
For me trying to remember a lyrics has never been a priority, Plus I dont even care to understand and remember if the lyrics is pretty retarded. I mean ya I dont wanna remember Taylor singing "uh look what you made me do" for 60% of the song thanks. But I am not denying how catchy the pop songs are. Its pretty fun to listen to but I dont personally find these music to be something I want to listen to. I am not complaining if I hear one but will I myself try and follow new pop songs? I cant imagine myself doing so. Also cannot deny that its more fun to sing along with pop music than metal songs.

The songs you are talking about are definitely pop songs. Nepali and hindi pop songs. But there are also songs from other genres in nepal like Npathya and 1974 AD are complete rock band. I dont think you can dance to "dherai dherai auxa man ma" and "resham"

>>That being said I listened to two albums from opeth yesterday. Damnation and Morningrise.
Thats great, Glad you did. I love Morningrise but I have to say its Opeth's maybe weakest album. The early opeth albums has pretty shit production. Their first album was orchid and then they made Morningrise and even though Morningrise has better production its still pretty crap. But its enhances the dark atmosphere they tried to create as its a death metal albums. The song you didnt listen yesterday was Black Rose Immortal. It has amazing transactions from one beat to other. People in the community deosnt like MORNINGRISE much coz of one fking song and its fking To Bid You Farewell. Like they say how morningrise started and had amazing black metal music untill to bid you farewell came and did complete 180 with the vibe. Which I think is pretty retarded argument.

Damnation has pretty interesting lore lol. So Opeth were coming from back to back success from their previous 2 albums (Still Life and Blackwater Park). And they were recording this new album called Deliverence and after they released the album they had lot of "extra" (music) things lying around and they just compiled all of those and did a little bit more enhancement and made "Damnation" which to me is the best album ever. It was Opeth's first "soft" album at it was a prog rock but lyrically its the heaviest out of any albums Opeth has. Every song follows a theme. "Windowpane" talks about lonliness, "in my time of need" talks about the thought of suicide and having a little innerthinking "is anyone ever gonna help me coz I dont wanna do this". death whispered a lullaby talks about how death is calling him, hope leaves (this is my favorite from the album) talks about losing everything you ever wanted. I can pretty much talk about this thing for hours.

If you like Morningrise then you maybe like their heavier albums. Blackwater Park is pretty much their most critically acclaimed album. Listen to their "Blackwater Park" song first. If you like it then you can try the album. After that their Still Life and Ghost Reveries is what I recommend. I personally think Ghost Reveries is their best metal album and not Blackwater Park.

>>Is that what prog music is supposed to be?
Prog means Progressive which means to progress. Prog music is basically like you mash different shit and make one big new thing. Thats prog, Like it constantly changes the way it sounds unlike other music where the music is same for entirety of music and only lyrics are changing. If there is one word prog music can be defined with it will be "experimental". Prog music doesnt sound stale coz they are heavily experimented genre that the uniqueness prog music has doesnt have a ceiling. It can go forever. Like if you tomorrow decided to make some extremely weird sound that doesnt fit with general music theory then its prog music. Hope that makes sense. Most prog music are long as heck and prog music mostly focuses on instruments. The 2/3 minute instruments solo.

>>What else of this band can I go through more?
WHat you liked about Morningrise though. If its the metal part then you can go for Gojira. Listen to their "Flying Whales" and "Another World". Their ''Born in Winter" is a masterpiece. Listen to it once. Perfect atmosphere, perfect lyrics, amazing transition from softer tones to heavier riffs. Just listen to it once. Hope yll like it. If you liked the prog part then go for TOOL .I started my prog music with "TOOL" they are pretty fking amazing band. Listen to their Parabola. Pretty much the perfect song for someone who doesnt know much about prog metal. It has perfect balance that its heavy enough to be liked by metal fans but its not too overwhelming to offput non metal fans. This is the song I started with as well. I can guarantee you have never heard any music like Parabola. Make sure you hear Parabol+Parabola in same sitting. Its 2 different songs but its supposed to be listened at the same sitting. Both together is like 10 minutes. After Parabola try their Vicarious which to me is like top 3 songs in terms of lyrics. Musically its pretty amazing as well.

>> Rap muisc is taking over everything. Rap is everywhere.
I feel like its pop than rap. Rap is pretty big but it can never dream to get bigger than pop. Its like thinking slice of life will ever be more popular than shounen. Pretty much impossible. Look at Taylor. At this point I am starting to think if Taylor says "Make Biden the president" he will win the election.

>> Is opeth still active?
I dont think they are. I heard they are working on an album like 2 years ago. Still no news yet, So its basically "NANA" of music. Cant say they wont come back but most likely they wont.

>> Did you hear that "okane kasegu watashi wa star"? Clearly instagram and tiktok blew up that song.
Fk that song man. Its actually so fking bad. I mean what kind of retaredness you have to suffer from to write this.

"Drinkin' out the bottle, gettin' twisted, Maruchan (hey, hey, ah)
Big exotic, Hermes, this a croc’
Watch too expensive, ain't no way I'm gettin' clocked
I think I'm so sexy, every shirt I own is cropped"

I mean what the fk does this even mean.

>>I loved pink flyod during a time when i liked that kind music. I have spent way more time on this band to just randomly drop it.
Pink Floyd are goated man. I cannot say anything else. Just the fact that they were consistent for almost 10 years. Dropping all 10/10 albums for 4/5 times straight is no joke. Especially when every album feels different. With different themes and complete new musical ideas. Its pretty unbelievable.

>> Does listening to breakup songs really help people heal after a breakup? Wouldnt that just be like salting the wound?
I dont know man. If I am sad I listen to aggressive song. Makes me energetic which to me feels better than listening to sad songs and be even sadder. But I think its a thing though listening to sad songs when sad times. I think its pretty counter-productive but they do what they wanna do.

>>I don’t think anyone except a native speaker would fully understand and decode the lyrics on their first listen
But is that a bad thing though? Its like I challenge myself tryna think what the lyrics meant. It gives me joy.

>> But again, lyrics, words, and music alone aren’t enough. Movies and anime carry a lot of elements needed to tell a story.
One edge anime and movies has over music is the visuals aspect. Its easier to understand what you watch than what you hear.. It also makes it more exciting. But I dont think this should be an argument coz music can more efficiently tell a story than how movies can. Is anime and movies more fun ? ya ofc, is it easier? ya but is it more efficient than music? I doubt it is and music is more versatile on how it can tell a story. Pure storytelling standpoint I dont think there is anything above music except Books. But who the fk read books anyways, Fk people who read books. They arent cooler than me just coz they fking read fk that.

>>Would 2020 you agree with this? Or its a thought that you developed later on?
2020 me would find me and put me at the gunpoint and force me to edit what I wrote above. I recently started to feel this way, Prolly been like 2 and a half years at best.

>>You micht be ironically calling your friend तँपाइ but if you are talking about dicks and ass. Would that be formal?
I also dont think just coz you talk with few respectful words its immediately formal. Its more of a sentences than a mere word. If its like " goodmorning. how have you been lately" kinda thing like idk how to explain. Like how when we dont reply for months and when we do we start like " sorry about this and that. Ive been pretty busy these days coz of this and that" thats a formal conversation but what we are having now isnt a formal conversation even though we are using same words and stuffs.

>>This conversation is highly dominated by music but I like how theres always anime and manga in between.
I never even noticed the conversation lately has been 90% ,music.

>>I still go and check few bits from vagabond here and there.
I have read sasaki and farm arc multiple times. Especially the farm arc. Its one of the best character arc in manga ever. I like these 2 arc for different reasons. I like the subtle growth of mushashi as a human in farm arc but I find saski's story much more interesting if that makes sense.

I dont think 20th century has much rewatch ability. Not saying its not one of the best ever but the pure brainfk this thing can do is insane. The mysteries is one of the reason that makes 20th CB great and once you know everything about it. It wont feel the same. Same as billy bat. Though I think Monster is very re-readable.

>>I never re watch things that leave off a sad vibe in the end after I complete it. Shows like clannad. Mostly shows with an unhappy ending.
I find honey and clover and sangatsu no lion to have great replay ability. Especially honey and clover. As I am getting more into their age I find much more of their situation relatable than when I find them 3/4 years ago. For me I dont care the happy or sad ending. If I feel like there is something I can learn about the show more then Ill watch it. Which isnt the case for Clannad but it is for shows like Honey and Clover.

>>How would you rank different genres that you have listened.
It depends on what mood Im in for music. But generally I dont enjoy repititive music and lyrics that makes no sense. Its as simple as that. Like Rihana WORK song. Its literally 90% "Work Work Work" and 10% rest. That shit makes no sense. and again Rihana and Em's Love the way you like. Its 100% the lyrics from Rihana's mouth and em has some good verses but that beat is just fking boring. Its too poppy to fit in rap music but also not pop enough. Idk how to explain. Thats why I generally prefer prog music. I wont even say I prefer metal or rock but its prog generally, The constant changes in beats makes it much more fresher and I love the experimental things. be it music or anime or movies or anything. and I ve said time and time again progressive music is the epitome of experimental music. So about how I rank the genre. I dont actually rank the genre. I just have things I like and dont like about music in general and if a genre includes the things I dont like then I choose to not liten to them much often. Pretty straight forward.

>>I have known the woird pop for my whole life but I dont know what kinda music pop is. is it the ones sung by the ones like ed sheeran ans the weeknd?
Ed Sheeran yes. Weekend not much. Weekend is much versatile. Thats pretty vague answer though, Pop music, If I have to explain it to you it would be something like this " its a kind of music that has repitive chorus for example "love me like you do". Like it has different verses but every verse ends with the same chorus "love me like you do, touch me like you do. what are you waiting for" and after the chorus 2nd verse starts which is different than the first one but again after 2nd verse ends it again goes back to same love me like you do touch me like you do chorus. thats the chorus part. It also has repitive hooks and flows like there is always a same beat going on and and on again for the entire song. It might be hard to notice since you dont focus on music much. and it is much more commercial than any other music genre coz its the most accesible and most easy to get into genre. a reason 50th or so most popular pop artist is much more popular than most popular metal band "metallica". Like I said its a shounen of music.

tldr: Pop is a most commercial music that has simple verse-chorus formula with repitive lyrics, repeated hooks and rythm and flows is made in a way that its much more dance-able. if that amkes sense. Taylor swift, ed sheeran, justin bieber.

>>The weeknd is still pretty slow and unenergetic for my taste.
Im cool with the Weekend. He is pretty talented. His songs are cool as well. His 'earned it' and 'I feel it coming' are songs I openly praise. I havent heard his new music though. Nowadays looks like he is getting even more popular and mainstream. I also like ed sheeran. He to me feels like the best 'love song' maker in pop music. Which appeals to a lot of people.

>>Kendrick has a few sad songs but it isnt sung sadly.
there is the difference in pop and rap music. Most of the times when pop music is about something sad then it makes sure we know its sad from both music and lyrics but most of the time rap songs which are sad its sad coz of the lyrics much more than the music. Same for rock and metal music. These genre its even more. They have some of the saddest lyrics but musically it doesnt feel like that coz the way they sing. there is a lyric in Opeth "Hope Leaves"

"Gone through days without talking
There is a comfort in silence
So used to losing all ambition
And struggling to maintain what's left
"
but the way its sung is not different than the basic everyday rock song.

>> But overall im really not into peaceful ear pleasing musics.
Thats literally pink floyd if I am being honest. Echoes, Shine on you crazy diamond, comfortably numb, high hopes are all slow songs. and you know how I feel about Floyd.


>>Im not passionate about music and don't listen to it regularly. Music doesn’t calm me or comfort me when I'm sad, angry, or depressed.
Ive probably already told you about me and my relation with music. I find music to be the closest to me interms of entertainment media. To be music is much more than something I hear. I used to think like you do as well but after I started to get into bands like opeth and pink floyd. I completely changed my opinion on music. I cannot stop yapping about prog music and it gets annpying at times for others but there is a reason its my favorite genre in music. While also sounding fantastic musically, they have some of the best lyrics in music. I cannot explain how many times Ive looked deeper into some lyrics. Some music has changed the way I look at music forever. My favorite song ever To Bid You Farewell is one of the reason I am into music and want to learn more about music. It has a lyrics that goes like

"I stand motionless,
In the parade of falling rain,
My voice I cannot hear
As I am falling again"

This is about how the hard time he is facing is dragging him deeper and he cannot seem to find to get out. This is the meaning of first 2 sentences And even if he has someone to console him or tryna help him, he still cannot get out of his situation coz he himself thinks its impossible for him. Thats what the last 2 sentences mean. and thats something I can very much relate to.

I also dont listen to music to calm me when I am angry or those bs, I believe there are people like that but for me music is about learning more things. Or understanding things I already know better, It helps me reflect to the things I do, situation I have already gone through.

I feel more fondly about music than anime or movies or anything else. I just find music to be the better way to tell stories than anime and all. Not all music helps me reflect on my actions. There are some metal bands that are completely talking about the hypocrisy and bad sides of hollywood and political ideas (system of the down). their song is absolutely energetic and all but their lyrics are some of the most thought provoking in the genre. Their vibes might lead people to neglect their lyricsim. I feel music is a fascinating thing. How its able to be pleasing to ear while also making me think about life and the world.

>>Is talking to a stranger considered formal conversation?
I dont think "who you talk to" matters. its much more about "how you are talking". Fomal conversations just means basic respectful talks that everyone follows. Like "hello, how are you, thank you, youre welcome" and some shits.

>>I laughed at it cause i loved it and lheart react is for something you love. Its really as simple as that.
exactly how I feel. I loved the JOKE thats why I laughed. Thats why I gave the heart emoji coz I loved it.

>>I caught up with this new ongoing anime called Make Heroine ga Oosugiru!. I suggest this to you.
Its in my radar. One of my irl frnd has asked me to watch it for a month now. I actually do wanna watch. Just the name is pretty cool. Idk If its harem or not. If it is then even the more reason to watch.

>>It was about this musashi guy for sometime and midway through sasaki kojiros story happened fro about 100 chapters. i didnt know how it would make sense with the musashi in the first read
Sasaki to the story is more important than any other characters other than Musashi himself. Considering even in real life Musashi and Sasaki were closest rival. I always loved Musashi but Musashi didnt reach his peak as a character untill the final arc in the manga. So untill that time I was clearly more interested in Sasaki than Musashi.

>> If you are just watching it to cure your boredom you might lazily watch it and even miss things that you caught in the first watch.
Ya thats why I said it depends on genre as well coz if I have to cure by boredom I would rather watch random slice of life shows that doesnt require me to use my brain. I wont go and watch Honey and Clover or NHK just co Im bored. I would watch Barakamon and enjoy every second of it.

>>Rumor says it will end on 2025 but it s very hard to imagine the end of one piece in few months
No. Oda said he would end the series in next 5 years. He said this in 2022/2023 I guess. So it would end around 2027/2028 probably.

>>Unless they degrade the show and rush the ending, which I doubt will happen,
Oda is really taking time recently. He sure is making sure he is at his best when he is going for the ending.

>>Why do you think you dont listen to particular genres of music
I dont just randomly say I dont enjoy something before giving it a try. If I say I dont like certain something then I definitely has given it a chance already and I didnt like what I got. There are always an exception. I dont enjoy the overly repetitive lyrics and lazy instrumentals of pop music but I do enjoy some pop songs. Love Someone, Beautiful People, 7 Years Old etc are some of the songs I always go back to. And also I dont like the thrash metal subgenre coz it has extremely offputting vocal performances but One, Orion, Reign in Blood is some of my favourite metal songs even tho they are from the subgenre I dont enjoy particularly. So in conclusion I think when I say I dont enjoy particular genre lets say pop then I must not like some aspect of the songs that pop music always includes which puts me off. But that also doesnt mean Im completely stuck with my words and Ill never listen to any pop music. You can also say I lack interest in these coz I obviously didnt like the things I heard before.

>>How do I explain this I feel like I havent been able to explain this everytime we talk about music
I do understand what you mean. I also feel the same. If someone puts a pop song before me and If I like then Ill say I like it. Just coz I dont enjoy many pop songs doesnt mean I can never like any of them.

>>What I like is music and not the genre.
This is true but for me I do want to hear something interesting. Lyrically or musically. Thats why I go for prog genre of music. Be it prog rock or prog metal. Its the epitome of experimental music. Every new song gives me new vision to look at music as a whole. Sometimes be its extremely complicated time signatures or off the chart solo instrumentals. I just find the uniqueness to them extremely interesting to listen to and not just enjoy the music at surface level. And its pretty easy to guess now why I dont usually enjoy pop music coz pop music is just like your shounen animes. It does everything it has to but it doesnt have anything unique about them.

>>I have listened to lil wayne I actuially like him and still listen to him sometimes. but I do want to listen to few more old rappers. Not cause im interested and want to listen to them on a regular basis.
Lil wayne is great. And if you do wanna listen to old school rap then definitely listen to ''Illmatic" by NAS. Its pretty much the best 90's rap album. Perfectly fitting with 90's gangster vibe musically while also having some of the best rhymes and song writing in the genre.

>>Also I would need to spend way much time for a new album. I normally only listen to 7-8 songs a day and most albums contain much more than 8 songs.
Most albums are like around 1 hr. Long. Damnation is around 45 mins. While Opeth's Blackwater Park is 1 hr 20 min. Plus also if you dont like 5 songs then its not possible to like the album overall. I dont think liking last 50% makes up for not enjoying first 50%. I listen to tons of new albums but if I dont like early few songs I really just drop them and never pick them up.

>>There is absolutely no opportunities as well. Alll of my times in a day are always spent with friends and family so its just informal chatting everyday.
For me I do spend a lot of my time with my frnds and we regularly talk about music, movies, animes and other things that interests us. And most of the time we do talk to each other about things we dont like and like about something and sometimes its little hard to bring point on the spot especially when its about things I dont really care to remember about.

>>I dont have a funny image of you. Lmao. Prolly cuz you never used haha react on facebook, not on my posts atleast.
I dont think I have what it takes to roast others. I do enjoy jokes and I can make some myself but roasting others isnt one of them. Plus I dont remember last time I used haha react on facebook. I always use heart react. If I like something I heart react. Be it jokes I liked, memes I liked, or anything that I liked I heart.

>>Idk man i prolly watchd the movie first and read the manga. I feel like i ALSO WATCHED SOLANIN'S MOVIE. HAVE YOU WATCHED IT?
Its quite opposite to me. I read the manga first. Infact it was my second Asano manga after Punpun. And I would be lying if I said I didnt enjoy the manga. I do understand the hate this shit gets for being a porn manga that is pretentious sometimes. But I do enjoy it.
I didnt know Solanin had a live action as well and fk I dont think I will watch it coz fk these japanese actors suck at live action. Especially their acting. Ive watched both Sangatsu no Lion and Honey and Clover live action and fk both of then sucked purely coz of the acting.

>> i feel like thats a good skill to have in Nepal.
That might be for teenagers. Flexing how many girls he can get. But fk nobody cares about it and nobody thinks its cool once you get older. Infact I personally think they can never get a good girl.

>>He is kinda half maried, but he has 2 other girlfriends. I feel like its pure narcissism.
I dont understand these guys mentality. I used to be interested in these when I was a teenager but fk I was stupid back then.

I read Vagabond before I was in this site. I read coz of the yt recommendation and fk I loved it immediately. I was dumfounded by the art but slowly the character writing got me. Especially the Sasaki backstory was peak a manga can get. Then the farm arc which just cemented the manga in my all time favourite.

>>Do you always find something new when returning back to something you have already consumed?
I do find more interesting thingss the more I read or Ill find the already good stuff even better the next time I read. But its so hard to catch new things when you've already read or watched a show fully focused. Some shows need multiple watches to fully appreciate its greatness like Hyouka or Honey and Clover or Showa Rakugo but others simple stuffs doesnt have much to offer like Haikyuu or Gintama. So it depends on the shows.

>>But still the art is too small and rough man.
Ya recently there are too many things to read in a single page. Its getting too clumped.

>>. But there are too many. Like urusei yatsura, devilman crybaby, trigun one piece now.
Remakes were always a thing like HxH, FMAB, LoTGH but I have notced there are many nowadays. Prolly coz studios want to make money off of already accomplished shows. Idk man. Im down for the remakes as long as its good. Like Devilman remake was amazing.

>>You say you are hooked up with and listen to rock and metal. But do you listen to any female artists at all?
I will say I dont. I used to listen to Adele. She was pretty much the only pop female artist I used to like. Nowadays I dont listen to her either. Though I still do listen to hindi songs which have female singers as well. I still to this day enjoy Shreya Ghosal's songs purely for her voice. But I dont think she has many songs on her own so Ill say I dont listen to female artist much.

I haven't listen to japanese music much. I used to listen to Maeda Jun coz of Clannad and I also used to enjoy Nujabes (lofi) but I dont think lofi is japanese music. They are pretty much only japanese artist I know of.

>>I want to listen to eminem and other rappers from his nera like dr dre and all,
You actually should. I dont enjoy gangster raps much and most 90's hiphop is filled with them but I do enjoy many of those music especially NAS. His Illmatic album is perfect. Almost everyone says its the best hiphop album of all time. While I dont agree it is but its definitely the worthy of that title. You should give it a try if you havent. Blueprint by Jay Z is pretty great as well. Just coz these albums are 30 years old doesnt mean they sound outdated. They still sound amazing. Plus the mainstream 90's rap albums are pretty easy to get into. Any popular rappers albums are fine. Bigge's Ready to Die, Nas's Illmatic, Jay Z's Blueprint. You can start with any of these. But Em isnt from this era. Em is inspired from these rappers. Em has mentioned how 'Halftime' from NAS has inspired how Em writes his rhymes. Em came after these rappers hit their prime already 4-5 years ago. Lil Wayne, Kanye, 50 Cent are more of a rappers from Em's era.

>>Have you started to like rap or a few rappers or would you quit soon?
Its hard to answer. I do listen to more raps recently but thats not coz I like raps more but because I want to learn about rap. So I might quit sooner or later but there is a chance I might find more artists like MF DOOM and Kendrick that I cannot get tired of. Then I might not quit.

>>I might not like metal as a genre but if any of the metal song pleases me I would listen to it until I get tired of it.
You should give metal a try. Metal is a fking headache of a genre. There are likw 100 subgenres of metal. There is always a subgenre that one will enjoy even if they hate 99 others. I personally dont like more metal subgenres than I like. But the ones I like I love them to death. Progressive, technical metal has to be my favourite. Opeth and Gojira are two of my favourite metal bands. You should listen to them. I suggest you give Born in Winter and Another World a try. Its pretty basic songs from Gojira. It introduces the kind of sound Gojira has without sounding too chaotic to non metal enjoyer.
While you can start with To Bid you Farewell from Opeth. Its pretty much my favourite ever song and ots actually not a metal song. It's a progressive rock song. If you like it then you should listen to Opeth's prog rock album Damnation. Which is my personal favourite album ever. Then you can get into more of their metal albums like Blackwater Park and Ghost Reveries. The lead singer from Opeth has some of the best metal growls while also having some of the best melodic voices. Though Im more into rock than metal music so idk man.

>>He alreaady defeated the Final boss now he should just do side quests once in a while.
After defeating the final boss my man is taking L's from minor villains now.

>>What I meant was they wont stop here. I was trying to say that a creatuire that we dont know about is doing absolute brainrot things. It doesnt matter what this show does, at this point people should have understood that this isnt your normal show. But it still shouldnt do too much
I know they wont stop here and Im completely down with whatever more brainrot things they do Im sure Im gonna enjoy them. It has been a long time since Ive seen a gag anime like this. People might get enough of it eventually I do think its a possibility but I dont think author should stop what he is doing just to appeal to more people for long time. The beauty of the anime exist in its weirdness and they should keep it this way.

>>Are you on the spot kind of person or think and reply kind of a person in real life?
Depends on the conversation I am having. Any conversation that I dont have to think much I prefeer rl conversation but things like talking about why and what I think about certain things and stuffs. I prefer talking like this. I mean I do enjoy rl talks lot more but there are things I cannot come up in an instant in real life. I might have to think for a while which cannot be the case for real life conversations.

>>I have a great knack for humor. I make great jokes on the spot in real life as well.
Thats a great thing to have. I do enjoy random jokes here and there. I do wanna believe I have quite a good sense of humor myself.

>>Even today one of my friends nearly had an arguement with the teacher and I kind of handled that situation well.
Im a kind of guy who lets the argument happen and also brainwash the frnd to start even bigger argument.

Also I did watch the Girl on the Shore live action yesterday and Im surprised I enjoyed the story more than when I read the manga. I still think if you cut out the sex scenes its has great story

>> If i think of relationship these days i think of sustainable relationship
thats nice to hear. Even though I dont know you irl. I still feel happy when an online frnd of mine is reasonable with what he is doing. I have tons of frnds online that changes relationship more than I can count. Idk what thats supposed to mean. Is it a flex that you can easily get girls or is it a sign of how pathetic you are that you cant hold a single relationship for long time.

>> How many times have you re read vagabond? I have re read it 2 times. Which makes it 3 times.
I have read a particular arcs many times. Probably around 6/7. But the entirety of the manga should be twice. You read it 3 times? Thats nice. Did you feel any differently the more you read?

>>Longer in what context are you talking about?
By longer I mean the content in a page is longer than what it used to be. Like there used to be less material ina chapter or less panels in a page. I dont count or remember how many pages a chapter has when I read a manga but I judge them by how much things I had to read in a chapter. Maybe it has 500 things in a panel to read or just there are more panels in a page. Can be anything, One Piece didnt have these things untill recently,

>>Would you watch the new one piece remake by wit studio?
Didnt know about this but why not. WHy wouldnt I watch an anime I already know about especially considering WIT is one of my favorite studios. I might watch few eps of them probably wont complete it though.

>>yes sirr there are nude scenes. I think they show बुब्स् as well. I vaguely remember.
Cannot not watch now.

>>He interrupted taylor swift's award winning speech. Dont you know about it? You must know about it?
I vaguely remember hearing about it. But Im not sure. I dont know why I didnt know about it but ok. Now I know. And sounds pretty dick lol. Though I dont expect much more from Kanye now,

>> I only listened to her "Romeo save me" song cuz girls in the school used to sing this
She has pretty cool songs. teardrops to my guitar, love story, you belong with me are pretty cool songs. Those are probably only songs I genuinly might listen to now as well. Though Im happy she is making music that appeals to more people apparently. idk.

>> Have you listened to all of his albums? You would really feel the difference if you compare his first album with last 4 or 5 albums.
I havent yet. Ive heard his 4 albums. Graduation, Late registration, mbdtf and vultures 1. Last one was bad. Others were pretty cool albums. He has like 20 albums it seems like. Will take much time.

>>I currently have not been in a single genre or a single type of music. Im kinda like a vagabond rn.
Ive been trying to get to know more about the rap genre so Ive been listening to it for quite a while now. I do listen to rock and metal like usual but most of the time Im just going for another rap artist hunt.

>>Should he stop now? He already is in the hall of fame so he shouldnt ruin that reputation by trying hard to fit in the newer community.
He shouldve retired like 10 years ago when he started to make shit music. Maybe even more than that I dont remember the dates of all albums. He is starting to ruin his legacy now. His earlier works is so good that even if he retired after Encore at 2004. He still should be considered top 5 of all time. But now it starting to feel like I remember Em for his shits he dropping recently than his legendary early 2000's run. He should just stick to singles and features atp.

>>alking about rapping ability he isnt any good either but his rap dont feel like rap.
I find him interesting as a rapper. I've heard he cant rhyme to save his life. But I disagree. He is almost like MF DOOM in a sense that his raps doesnt sound like raps but have quite unique execution.

>> We dont even know what this deer girl is yet she turns into a robot opens her head and fit things like doraemon's pocket.
Does that matter though? I dont think that matters at all, Even if the anime ends without going into her past and who she is, I still wont mind it at all coz thats not how the series is intended to be in the first place. Its just pure gag and it logic doesnt really matters in these kinda show. Its like how there are random clips of characters suplexing a deer in Nichijou and that shit absolutely doesnt make a fking sense but it doesnt matter coz thats the beauty of gag animes, the pure bs these anime can show without looking too desperate for laughs.

>>People might get bored of it eventually if it does too much.
People might for sure. I cant talk on others behalf but will I get bored of it? Absolutely not and thats all that matters to me.

>>I feel like comedy is the only genre i can watch anytime regardless of my mood.
Idk man sometimes I dont wanna laugh. Pretty much it.

>>People might be scared to commit for such a deep concept.
It actually is very hard to commit. Just coz you love someone and doesnt cheat isnt enough. There are lot of things you have to do when in a relationship. Ive been through shit ton of problems in my relationship despite both of us being loyal to one other. Idk man never felt like this ever. But one day its gonna happen so Im glad I got to experience this sooner than later. But one thing is that there is nothing more fun than teenage love. We literally dont know much in that time, we have no stress of anything, we just hang around and have fun without any care of the world. But now shit is stressful. Have to live the present while also having to think of a future together.

>>Like "He Utilized the direction of the wind to his fist and attacked his foes with this forbidden technique."
I probably wont read it either if it's something like this. But Ill read the explanation of powers in shounen shows like one piece, hxh, jojo's coz their abilities is a very important part of their character.

>>He needs to fit as much story as possible in a chapter in a short time and that makes it congested which kinda looks rough to me.
I do understand this. But its fine for someone who has been following one piece weekly for like 6 years now. I am fine with reading 30 min straight if its just one time a week. Though I would hate to read stuffs like one piece from thw beginning. But also the longer chapters werent a thing in the past. It recently became a thing coz its the last saga and oda has to end it pretty soon.

>>Yes sir there is one
Do they सेगस् ?

What Kanye did to Taylor ? I dunno anything about this wtf? I dont enjoy taylor swift music either. She has pretty repetitive basic love songs. I used to like her earlier songs back in 2014/2015. Maybe coz I was a kid and didnt have much music exposure but I remember liking her songs. Now I kinda dont care what she comes up with. Not just her its pretty much all the pop music. Its kinda hard to get into again since I dont like most of the new music from the genre.

I dont think Kanye is bad as a rapper. He is bad rapper if we compare his rapping skills with his catalogue. His production is fabulous and his writing in earlier albums are fantastic but I feel like writing and production like that would deserve a lot better rapping than what Kanye can do. I hope you understand.

>> He is trying to include everything do everything in his rap
My man is going Eminem route.
-creates some amazing albums
-declines
-continues to decline.
Em's new album was absolutely trash. He decided to bring back his early 2000's vibe in his songs and absolutely failed. That shit doesnt sound good anymore from his 50 yrs old mouth. It was groundbreaking when he started in early 2000's. Now it just sounds too desperate for relevancy. Still his earlier albums are still amazing especially his MMLP.

Lmao I recently got into Tyler and he has one song in his Goblin album and it had lyrics like "Fked a pregnant bitch, told my frnds I had a threesome". Like fk man chill.

I feel like I can watch gag anime for as long as I want. Comedy shows like konosuba, kaguya sama and gintama are amazing but there are things other than comedy to enjoy but some pure comedy shows like nichijou, daily lives of highschool boys and recently the nokotan anime is just pure comedy and its gold at that. Though I feel confused rating these anime coz these are just comedy and nothing else there isnt anything else to rate it on. And despite I find them funny, sometimes I might not be in the mood to enjoy these type of comedy. But when I am in the mood I can binge these for hours.

Being with gf and being with homies is both fun but both are different kinda fun,. I really cant explain that. Hope yll experience it yourself.

>> I do think people share most of their stuff with homies than their girl.
I pretty much share almost everything to both homies and girl so idk waht to say about this.

>>I dont know if its a good sign or a bad sign in a relationship but i see dudes sharing too much about their girls to homies but dont tell anything about their homies to their girl.
If you put it like this then it sure is a bad thing. But I too sometimes feel like there are somethings homies will understand but my girl wont. That kinda stuffs I also feel like sharing with homies rather than my girl. But talking about our private relations with homies is something I cant do.

>>Thats the thing man I cant see the love building up before actually going out.
I cant tell for others but in my case there was already a love between we start going out. By going out what do you mena though? do you the actual "gf,bf" thing by going out or just " hanging out" kinda going out.

>>I feel like you would have to spend too much time together to actually love someone.
That pretty much depends man. There isnt a universal rule for " you have to know and talk to them for this much to fall in love". I also dont believe in love at first sight but I dont think its impossible for others.

>>I mean liking the person based on your first impression and wanting to become friends know each other and continue things further later sounds understandable.
Liking someone on the first sight is pretty normal but that isnt love. You can see someone and think "oh she is pretty good looking". You can be attracted to them but that wont be called love.

>>Do you read everything? I dont read everything
I do read everything in every panel. Not the random sound effects but the dialogues and all I read them. MHA is pretty much a basic shounen so I dont have to think while reading it plus a chapter in BNHA is pretty small in comparision to One Piece.

reading HxH sometime feels like a curse. The art itself wasnt that good from the beginning but in the later arcs the dialogoues are just wayy too much. Ive read a 4 panels of full dialogues and no art. I think one piece is fine though. The chapters are long but there are equal amount of art and dialogues that one doesnt overshadow the other.

>> Yes I did. It had seggx. I might watch its live action.
I see segs, I have time to watch. Wait there is a live action?

>>Bro is starting from episode one.
Never take shortcuts,

>>I only listen to kendrick kanye mf doom and few from every rappers like 21 savage travis tyler the creator carti these days. Mostly kanye and kendrick.
Man I dont really like Kanye. His songs are actually great but his rapping ability is kinda bad ngl. MF DOOM's rapping is extraordinary while sometimes his songs have shit production. Kanye has extraordinary production while his rapping ability is really not that good and Kendrick to me feels like in the middle of the both.

Just watched 5 ep of this Nakotan anime. Its actually pretty funny ngl.

People are different and feel differently on same shit. I know lot of people who think being in a relationship is like a chore. They are doing what they do coz they know they have to do not coz they want to do. Hope you know what I mean. I feel its kinda differently. Being with homies is different than being with someone you love. And people do wanna feel loved when they are in a relationship. Atleast I hope they do. Wanting to feel loved is normal human behaviour. Relationship isnt like " I dont feel loved and cared for but I still will stay with them coz I wanna" I dont think its supposed to work like that. This makes the realtionship like a chore. You arent staying coz u wanna stay. You are staying coz you dont have nothing else to do. I hope yll understand this sooner than later. Being in love is single best and single most stressful thing you can experience.

Man I dont take these class 8/9 gf bf bs man lmao. I had lot of "gf" when I was a kid. Literally didnt know shit about what that mean. I just though gf meant someone you hold hands with. And it felt cool to have one. I feel stupid now thinking about that lmao.

>>Yeah understandable I just wanted to know what happens at the start how does things get initiated cuz thats where im stuck at.
Idk man I feel like I just got lucky. Some pretty girl happened to like me. Pretty easy if that happens.

>>I saw somewhere that ending sucked.
Not like it was amazing before the ending. Mediocre stays mediocre despite of its ending.

>> 40 volumes i wont read it if it turned out to be like HxH.
I used to read it weekly. Now I have like 40 chapters left to read. 40 chapters is like 3 hrs, It wont kill me.

>>Could be because its a sequel of something i have already watched.
YA I can watch these as well. I dont think I am completely out of love with anime. I am but just with new animes. Old ones I can still watch.

>>Do you think you will watch those. Or can you watch?]
I might. There is like 25 eps alltogether, Its not that much considering its already something I know and love.

>> I have read half of what a wonderful world. But i dont know till where so i will have to read it from the beginning again.
I suggest you do. I suggest you read the Nijigahara espesially. Have you read his "Girl on the shore"? its pretty debated manga of his.

>>Last time I asked you what real movies you watched this was your answer. .
Goes to show how much more movie I've watched since.

>>Who you listening to?
I listened to all Eminem albums, few Jay Z, NAS, Pac, Big E, Travis, Tyler, Cole, Drake, Outkast, Kanye etc. few more but I forgot them coz they were pretty bad. But the rappers I find the most interesting are Kendrick and MF DOOM. Kendrick outshines literally everyone with his lyricism while MF DOOM is pretty much the most unique artist Ive ever seen.

>>Can you share like how things get started? How does everything gets initated. If you are okay with sharing your own story.
I dont mind sharing. But its kinda too long so idk where to start. Ill just point out things that happened.
So I was this "If I like someone Ill make her mine for sure" kinda dude. And one day I started to like this long time frnd of mine and that was the first time I couldnt actually approach her like that. I talked with her for like 1 and a half year and made no progression. In the mean time there was another girl who liked and approached me first. I knew she liked me but I didnt say I liked someone else. She proposed me and I accepted coz I was frustrated that I wasnt able to appraoch the girl I liked. But as I didnt actually liked the girl who proposed me I ended up ignoring her after 3/4 months and eventually we broke up. After few months I actually was able to be with the girl I loved for the long time but she dumped me after 6 months saying she wasnt ready for the relationship yet but I saw her with my childhood frnd like 2 months later. I kinda felt cheated but I also felt that it was my karma for what I did to previous girlfriend. So I didnt talk to like any girl for about a year and my whole "I can talk to any woman" kinda mentality was gone. At that time I met my current gf and we used to play few games together. I didnt think of her as a love interest but she was interested to me so my frnds planned and made us meet each other in real life. We did go to few places together in span of 3 months and I too started liking her and I felt after a long time that "maybe I am loveable and someone does think I am special to them" so everything is pretty much this. I didnt go too much in detail coz I cant share those plus it will be too long but its pretty much what happened in surface level.

>>She is not at internet world at all these days just like you. or maybe she is just ghosting me. Im ready to hurry but where to hurry when there's no destination.
Man I dunno what to say. "All the best" maybe?

>>There are something only you understand in a different way, which is really hard to explain to others. This is one of them.
I cock suck Pink Floyd way too much but listen to their 'Time' song. Understand the lyrics. I personally find it to be the lyrically most relatable song ever. And considering your opinion on Time I think you will like this.

>>If youre 5 then im 2. You said youve been in a multiple relationships, thats still a 0 for me.
That does make sense. You are like a newborn baby while I am like 4 years old kid. We both dont know shit but I know a little more than you, It seems.


>>Do you read a lot of ongoing mangas?
I used to read few of them. Now the only one I read is One Piece. I sued to read MHA, JJK, Spy Family, Akkutsu san, Oshi no Ko etc and few monthly series.

>>They are many ongoing mangas i want to read but im just waiting for them to end.
Makes sense. I heard MHA is gonna end in next week so I might read it. I have to read like 40 chapters of it. But also I cant wait for 10 years for a series to end so I wait for 2/3 months and read 6/7 chapters at once a nd wait another 2/3 months.

>>Spoil if you have the energy to type, i dont care.
i DONT HAVE ENERGY TO. I can just say this much that its pretty bad, Female mc bad, male mc bad, side characters irrelevant.

>>But i feel like you can still watch romance anime. You even watched on romance anime when you were watching skip to loafer and this one again.
I dont watch anime for 4/5 months but when I watch I dont just watch one. I watched this dreamer boy romance when I was watching skip and loafer. and this time I watched Demon Slayer and saw one romance anime and just watched it. When I say I dont have motivation to watch anime. I mean I have no motivation to start watching anime. But when I start watching anime It seems like I dont have problem watching few of them. And stop anime watching altogether again.

>>Another one just interested me, like it has russian language and i wanted to see how it gets executed in anime.
Ive heard of this one, I heard like its about a russian girl who likes a dude and flirst with him in russian but dude also understands russian. but the girl doesnt know that the boy understands russian too.

>>Also new monogatari season, watched the first 2 episodes they dont show araragi, hanekawa and senjougahara, its kinda boring.
I already have few monogatari seasons to catch up before watching this new one. Have to watch owarimonogatari and zoku owarimonogatari still.

>>I am searching for mangas to read as well.
I dont think I have much I can recommend since I dont read too much manga. But you can read other projects from Asano Inio like Reiraku, nijigahara holograph, what a wonderful world, city of lights etc. You can also read junji ito stuffs. I dont like his works much but his Uzumaki and Ningen Shikaku is pretty good.

>>Also I watched Deadpool 1. I might watch deadpool 2 today.
How was it? I am a big hater of super heroes kinda show. Last superhero movie I loved was Batman. But Batman is much more than superheroes.

>>Have you been watching real movies at all lately?
I have not. Last movie I watched was LaLa Land like 4 months ago and didnt like it. I think we already talked about this. I wanna watch new movies but these day Im more in music. Ive been trying to get into rap music.

>>Ofcourse not everything is relatable but i find the interactions of two main characters pretty relatable and realistic.
Thats great. Just coz I dont find it realistic doesnt mean I dont wanna believe the chances of it actually being one. But again I find romcoms extremely hard to think as if its something realistic. It can be but rom com goes too far with their stuffs. Thats why I like pure romance. Romance drama. Man gotta love them.

>> I am not talking about comparing the anime girl with real life girl. I am talking about the qualities.
I get what you mean and I do agree it would feel great . But also we all are flawed. There might be a woman with some qualities I love but the same woman might also have the most toxic trait to her other side. I already love my gf that if tomorrow she wakes up and changes herself to be like 100% Asuka from Evangelion then still I wont start hating her all of a sudden. Idk how to explain like I do have things that I like in womans but when I started to like my current girlfriend I never sat and thought about "oh what qualities does she have". I just happened to not think of anything when I was talking to her or I was with her.

>>I have a girl that I like rn, and i like her because she has those qualities that I like to see in a woman, we have been interacting for 4 years
Goodness man. Thats kinda too much interaction haha. Man gotta hurry. I always say dont hurry to my boys about these stuffs but you actually do need to hurry. Especially in this day and age.

>>Thats what im saying as well. It has some common fantasy elements like magic, myths, mythical creatures, elves.
Thats what I mean. Fantasy genre will probably never die just coz it has so many themes that it can capture even if its only uses the most basic elements. Plus fantasy genre also includes battle shounens so probably it wont ever let fantasy genre die.

I dont know about the history of Isekai but I think Inuyasha was one of the first isekai out there. What does isekai mean? Transported to another world no? And Inuyasha is that. But I feel like there werent much shows like that before the worldwide popularity of shows ngnl, re zero etc.

Im not scared of Goats but just their eyes. If I see goat with blindfold on, I will be completely fine with them.

I just realized that I am also scared of not being enough. Like idk how to explain. By not being enough I mean not being good enough person for my loved ones. And my family wasnt good financially for the most of my life. So I am also scared of having my children live like how I did in my childhood. But I probably think everyone has that fear.

>>The moment when I wrote the word "passing" is already past now is kinda scary man.
That's little too deep for my liking man haha. I understand what you mean but Ive never thought of this like you do.

>>Like you might be satisfied with how you are for now, "I am gonna be like this, I will do what i want to for me".
I am not satisfied by myself in a slightest lmao. There is so much I want myself on. Only thing I am satisfied rn is that I already have the plan on what I wanna do for 5/6 years now. Other than I am a complete mess.

>>I might be 21 but I have only like 15 years of experience
Lmao. I probably have like 5 years of experience considering you dont know nothing about life untill youre 16/17.

I've read like 35 chapters of freiren. I dont think Ill watch its anime but I always wanted to read the manga. Lot before it got an anime. One of my older MAL fellow reviewer recommended it when it had like 10 chapters. Always was in my ptr. So read after 2 years.

I was too bored to do anything so I just watched few anime. I dont have the motivation to watch new show but I am always down to watch the sequel of a show I already know about.

The shikano noko show I might watch after few days. I actually am interested in it. I did watch this new romance anime called Hananoi-kun and holy fk it was bad. I dont wanna spoil you if you havent watched it yet but trust me when I say the main male guy is the most toxic guy Ive seen in romance genre. There are so many actually toxic guys that show they are toxic but this guy is toxic but plays victim and manipulates the main chick. And the main chick has negative iq to question anything he does.

What new stuffs youve been watching lately?
I do read some manga here and there but Im too lazy to record here. I might record everything I read for last 6 months.

>> like how realistic it is. As I always say, I like realistic stuffs.
I actually dont find it very realistic if I am being completely honest. I dont think most romcom are. I enjoy it as a romcom and I do believe kids be like this when they both like each other but dont wanna talk about it. But kaguya sama goes completely over the top to show that to the point it almost dont feel realistic anymore.

Ive heard pretty disappointing stuffs about Kaguya sama manga and I dont think it bothers me much. As much as I like it I dont seem to care about it going downward spiral at the end.

>>I snt your favorite female anime character called a waifu?
I dont think thats how its supposed to work. I think people tell woman character waifu when they love them to the point they will lick the screen whenever they are on screen. I feel physical cringe when people take anime waifu thing seriously.

>> Maybe I will search for the "waifus" qualities in real life women if we interact for romantic purpose.
Ive been in many relationships but Ive never thought of anything like "oh I wish this woman have this trait from this certain anime character". Infact I dont even get to know much about womans untill we already decide to date. I learn about them overtime. No matter how many times we interact its just not possible that woman will show you her complete personality. It would be great if someone I love have qualities like Kawamoto Akari but life isnt a manga.

>> Fantasy genres are always the same Ancient Europe theme based with the ideas of magics,
I dont think thats much of a problem. Look at Freiren. Its such a good fantasy show. I dont think its premise is that unique but that show is just so good.
Also fantasy can be anything that isnt real. You can wake up tomorrow and think of complete bs, unrealistic shit and make a show about it. It will be a fantasy. Though as I said the isekai version is just way too much overexploited that I think there is like 1 out of 100 chance that there will be anything new and fresh.

>>People's fetishes are also getting wilder.
As long as I remember I lost any faith I had in Isekai show after I watched the Mama isekai (I even forgot the name). That show was so disgusting that I dont even wanna think about it. I heard there is show where mc is reincarnated as a fking dog. I dont know if thats a isekai or just random echhi shit but that sounds pretty fking horrible.

>>Is that what bringing something new to this genre mean?
Now Isekai just have become some absolute bs subgenre where author just wanna reincarnate the mc in the most random way possible. I feel like its the fault of isekai fans though. Isekai fans literally be liking anything Isekai related shown to them not caring how its already been used like 50 times. Idk if they just dont want anything new. If I was a author then I would make the same old isekai too coz I know isekai fans will like it no matter how stale it is.

>>Wasnt his second last movie "The wind rises"? That was in like 2013,
It was Wind Rises and he retired after that, Im not sure about this but I heard Miyazaki retired like 3 times already.

Ive heard from lot of my frnds who are in Japan that the local there most of the time looks like a complete npc.
I would love to visit japan but the thought of living there just doesnt feel right to me. The natural disasters, the overly populated urban areas, language and cultural barriers, might be too much for me to handle.

>>What else are you scared of,
Im scared of heights and thats probably the only normal fear I have, The most stupid thing I am scared of is Goat Eyes. I dont know why but their rectangular pupil is so fking creepy. I dont think there is anything else I am scared of, I mean I am scared of tigers and stuffs but thats pretty basic. Eveyone are. I also am scared of ocean. I have never encountered one but just the fact that almost 90% of ocean is unexplored is pretty scary. Can not imagine what can be living there.

I am 22 now. I dont think how I feel about being 22. I mean its fine I guess?? Its just as I as I felt when I hit 21. Which was 'nothing'. But I do feel the urgency of having to do something and not waste my days doing nothing. Thats probably only thing but I felt this when I was 21 too so idk what to say.

How you feel about being your age rn?
