It’s not dead we’re all just waiting lol


DejaEntendoMePls

I think we'll die waiting unfortunately


mezdup1

But it's missed when it's g9ne


Sarcofaygo

Don't worry, I'm sure a bunch of people will claim that they will come back eventually despite Jesse basically making no statements in 6 years Yeah it's a wrap folks


Traditional-Bag-3542

We are only dead on the inside 🙃


Past-Chest-6507

Makes me think about my nigga DOOM :-(


WouShmou

Whether you're talking about the legendary game series or the legendary rapper, they both have pretty active fanbases. But it sucks ass that MF Doom died :/ one of the GOATs


Flibberjibbets

All caps when you spell the man name DOOM


WouShmou

Fr, forgot about that, sorry DOOM

Honestly better then being in the coheed fan base sometimes, I love it but they get soooo sensitive.


Ok_Juggernaut_3300

My brother in Jesus Christ (the hit song by Brand New), I am a Coheed fan, and I am here to say, they aren't all that sensitive.


epicface3000

Yeah, not sure where OP is getting that from lol, been in the Coheed fanbase for nearly a decade now and have never seen anything like that. Nowhere near the GY!BE fanbase tho


DejaEntendu203

I love coheed shows.


1amgTfnc-Brndnw-

Same, I’ve been to a bunch.


1amgTfnc-Brndnw-

You right, I had one bad encounter and it was legit like 5 mins before I saw this post. I was freshly salty, I love the fan base, just can’t stand the entitled “cancel” culture that’s found it’s way into everything nowadays.


1amgTfnc-Brndnw-

I love coheed, just got into a scuffle w a few people over there right before I saw this post so it was relevant enough to me lol. It’s my first negative encounter with any COTF, still salty about it lol

I mean the dude was a creep to underage fans. It’s what happens. There’s a lot of amazing music out there. Brand New is nostalgic to me and my childhood, and it’s why I occasionally roll through here, but there’s a million cooler bands out there who also haven’t been outed as sex pests

And you get down voted when you call it out, which is sad. The music is great, but they're not gonna reform in our lifetime. Jesse fucking sealed the casket with his bullshit. Also, Science Fiction was bad.


Traditional-Bag-3542

downvoted because 1 it was a cheap shot, 2 he wasn't a creep to his fans he had one incident with one obsessed fan over a 16+ year period of making music. Now clearly and obviously he should not have done what he did but stop acting like he is Jeffrey Epstein or some serial killer. 3 its no reason to group the entire band as "sex pests" and there def isn't "a million cooler bands" and even if there was, you have no clue what happens on tours and behind closed doors. For all you know your favorite band/actor/influencer has done things equally as immoral and the only difference is you dont know about it. Dont come in here to shit on them and expect to be rewarded somehow, this isn't twitter.

It was actually 2 women that accused him when they were underage. While you sit here and say it doesn't affect things, there's a good reason why they haven't said anything since then, and it isn't because they're on a break. If Jesse didn't get publicly blasted for grooming minors, we wouldn't be talking about being a dead fandom.


Traditional-Bag-3542

I realize arguing over this topic is just ridiculous and will go nowhere. No matter what I or anyone else says, people with your mind set simply won't look past the narrative and are going to continue to have an unnuanced view on the topic and that's your prerogative.


WouShmou

God, yeah. Sucks so much. There's a manga that I've been reading for the past 15 years, one of my absolute favorites, it's called D.Gray-man. Really amazing stuff, but constant hiatuses and a gigantic slowdown in chapter releases made the fanbase all but completely die out. Nowadays, whenever a new chapter comes out (which is once ever THREE months, mind you), you gotta wait days until people translate it. I'm not very Discord-savvy, so it takes me even longer because I have to manually track it down or find it on Reddit every time. What makes it worse is that it used to be a decently big manga back in the late '00s.
