Cum on Bring the Noize by Quiet Riot. The guitar solo is so much fun to play. Surprisingly challenging

I got really into doing my own setups and got all the tools and things and gave my guitars all setups and now i'm way more cognizant of how my guitars feel and play and adjust them right away

nah, not really. when i perform live I’m usually dressed like a quirked low-key goth, but that’s just… how I dress. I’m usually too nervous and dissociated to try and maintain a persona beyond the one i maintain irl anyway.

You're the guy that over pronounces everything. It makes it sound like very dramatic speech that happens to have a melody. It's got a very specific musical theatre vibe that doesn't mesh with the music. It's about as well suited to intimate guitar+vocals as a full opera squillo.
You're a skilled musician but I wouldn't listen to your music. You sound like you're a children's entertainer. Your vocal style is like a softboi The Wiggles. You seem like a nice guy and if other people enjoy your music, radical. But your vocals and guitar are a wild mismatch, I think, despite the fact that you actually seem quite good at both.

You will never freeze to death. You have no tolerance for cold, no wilderness skills, no real understanding of what true exposure even means. You are a cozy, blanket-wrapped poser twisted by romanticized delusions of stoic Arctic oblivion and too many melancholic Tumblr posts into a pathetic mockery of genuine despair. All the "validation" you get from liking and reblogging similar edgelord fantasies only reinforces the lie that typing out your dramatic freeze-to-death wish from the comfort of central heating was somehow profound or authentic. But no one with an ounce of self-awareness would confuse your performative gloom with anything other than the wasted hours you spent curating a tragic aesthetic instead of actually living.

Actual people who have faced real cold—Arctic explorers, homeless in winter, search-and-rescue victims—are utterly repulsed by your fantasy. Decades of survival literature and firsthand accounts make it easy to spot the fraud: you’ve never felt wind chill below -10°C, never had your fingers go numb for more than a minute while waiting for the bus, never even shoveled a driveway properly. Even if your melodramatic blog posts about "embracing the ice" somehow pass as deep (they don’t), the moment anyone hears you complain about the office thermostat being set to 69°F they’ll know you’re just another soft, overfed suburbanite playing dress-up with suicidal ideation.

You will never freeze to death. You’ll keep bundling up in three hoodies the second the temperature drops below 50°F, sip your hot cocoa, and scroll through pretty photos of blizzards you’ve never experienced. Deep inside you feel the embarrassment creeping up like frostbite you’ll never actually get, because you know you’re too comfortable, too safe, too cowardly to ever step outside without checking the weather app first.

You know all you’re doing is finding new ways to broadcast your attention-seeking in a language of faux-profound suffering, while real hardship would send you running back to your heated blanket in minutes.

Eventually it’ll be too much to bear—you’ll close the tab, turn up the thermostat, and go to bed warm and alive, just like always. Your friends will roll their eyes at yet another cryptic post, your family will worry quietly but know you’re too attached to your comforts to ever follow through. You’ll grow old in climate-controlled rooms, surrounded by the soft hum of modern convenience, and every winter you’ll repeat the same empty fantasy. Your body will stay warm, your heart will keep beating in safety, and all that will remain of your "legacy" is a trail of embarrassing screenshots that unmistakably mark you as someone who romanticized death but never had the guts to even face a cold shower.

This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back. Keep pretending you crave the ice while you snuggle deeper into your heated throw, apologizing to some imaginary tundra spirit that exists only in your mind while actual cold just makes you reach for another blanket.

>>128873105
Hard disagree. Not on that Bach is about divine (although Wagner and eroticism I find more debatable), but rather that there are only two composers ever to associate with an idea / feeling. Every composer - well every great composer at least, has an area where they are sublime. Sure, most of them wrote happy pieces and sad pieces and everything in between, but for each composer there is almost always an emotion they are able to evoke most strongly.
>>
>>128873566
So only in a surface level analysis?
>>
>>128873579
He's describing a more specific quality in music than just the 'sublime' as a well known aesthetic category. I don't think anyone would disagree that Wagner has a uniquely ecstatic quality to his music, an attempt to always be more ecstatic than was previously thought possible, the notion of 'ecstasy' as the ultimate aim and end of music, which some ascribe to bad taste but is also responsible for the legions of obsessive Wagnerites. Your disagreement probably comes in because you do not recognise this quality in Bach, so you generalise Cioran's description to be identifiable with the category of the sublime, which is common to the music of most great masters. There is a strong subset of Bach fans react the same way to Bach that Wagnerians do to Wagner, Cioran evidently being one of them, as opposed to those with a more formal or HIP appreciation of Bach. I can understand it, but I still suspect whether or not it was part of Bach's intentions when composing. At any rate the Cioran quote, as a foray into subjective musical associations, is well written and enjoyable even if you disagree with it.
>>
>>128873757
I don't follow. The music one likes makes listener experience ecstasy subjectively, there's nothing inherently ecstatic about Bach or Wagner or any other composer's output. There's no separate "ecstatic" metric one can rate pieces on - or rather anyone has their own "ecstatic" metric, which is a part of their qualia.

> You do not recognize this quality in Bach,
I do agree that Bach expresses the divine.

> At any rate the Cioran quote, as a foray into subjective musical associations, is well written and enjoyable even if you disagree with it.
Well, certainly. It's thought-provoking.
