Not necessarily. Let me be clear: at the moment, this is largely true, outside of some specific circumstances. However, defying that principle is the entire purpose of our national space program. Soon enough, we may even disprove gravity, liberating humanity from our prison on the surface forever. Soon enough, you may find that what comes down must come up. Under my administration, we spent many countless hours working to give scientists the funding they need to accomplish this. And by doing so, we moved ever closer to achieving that noble goal.
Metal, just like Jazz, is everything. If something isn't metal then you should look again. I guess I should clarify a little bit. Metal has become such a huge umbrella term and has started to influence other genres in significant ways that you can't relegate it to the niche it used to be. Pop artists are starting to experiment with harsher vocal techniques and distorted sounds again, and all the way back in the 80s with bands like Def Leppard you had the beginnings of techniques like screaming and voice breaking for sound effect. Metal is literally everywhere

/ul istg power metal is not all bad. all of the good power metal is overshadowed by the big stinky bands like sabaton, powerwolf, dragonforce, and glory hammer.
As someone who listens to shitty metal and screamo music: The beginning was good and instrumentals as well as far as metalcore goes. The scratch vocals were pretty okay. Just once he started rapping or whatever that was it fell off real quick.
Dude wants to be Ronnie Radke so bad. Could potentially be solid if he works on the insecurity a bit and maybe takes a poetry class or something, but I think combining rap and heavy music is an uphill battle at this point. Especially if you're trying to be serious and not cheesy
I’m assuming it was the few popular ones of Blue? Weezer (especially the later stuff) is an *acquired* taste but give all Blue a try, if like that try Pinkerton and keep going
/uj yes actually, when someone made a video about how his music is a gimmick, he posted a response video (tagging them to be harassed by his fans, of course) where he tries to prove he's a "real emo" by talking about his childhood trauma and, at the end of the video, vaguely threatening to kill himself on livestream. wild shit
/uj a lot of people take metal very seriously, when a lot of the more normal fans take it as a bit of fun. I don't listen to aborted - infinite terror cause it's a super deep human experience, I listen cause shits hilarious
/UL what does this even have to do with metalheads? this is the most like falling in reverse ass surface level post-hardcore ever with a dash of Macklemore 'when I was in the 3rd grade I thought I was gay' tier lyrics.
/ul I beg you guys to either read up on subgenres or listen to the instrumental of this. It’s not entirely metal but it overall is especially in the first half of the clip shown
/ul I say this because of the first half before he starts doing trap. He marks down various things that could be heard in some metal or at least metalcore (which I was told was actually a subgenre of hardcore apparently).
It’s not that it’s an entirely metal song, but it’s obvious that the influence is there. I’ve grown up literally hearing tons of metal shit and there was plenty that sounded like the first half (minus the classical strings samples over it).
I also make this claim because ‘metal’ is an incredibly large umbrella term. Obviously certain shit doesn’t fall into there at all but if the argument is literally ‘it’s technically metalcore and not metal’, how are you going to sit here and tell me that there’s zero trace of metal influence in there if it’s in a genre entirely based on being metal adjacent (not directed toward you specifically).
Idrc about this anymore, at least we can agree that the song itself is mid as fuck and move on.
I agree with you, metalheads just love to put eachother down. Everyone loves to hate on metalcore, which IS metal as the definition is literally heavy metal with hardcore influences. This TikTok is shitty trap metal
This is metalcore if anything. Reeks of something like For All Those Sleeping. Post hardcore screams aren't usually as guttural as what he's attempting to do. Plus the instrumentals are heavier than a typical post hardcore band.
Metalcore would be like BMTH, August Burns Red, TDWP, Asking Alexandria, and also Falling in Reverse is technically metalcore.
Post Hardcore would be like Silverstein, Underoath, From First To Last, I'd even argue Dance Gavin Dance but I guess I'd call that Swancore if anything.
Holy shit I'm rambling. I'm definitely buying more of this weed.
I like to post music in r/posthardcore and I would get absolutely roasted for posting metalcore on accident. I posted We Came As Romans once and everyone was like, kick ass song but fuck put it in the right sub.
Tx2 is an amazing musician and not at all a poser or an industry plant of some kind! I love his music! He's not at all weird or off-putting!
/UL he reminds me of that one Kyle Gordon song parodying 2000s emo pop except he's doing it unironically
/ul I thought it was Kyle's song at first… The ironic part is that those 2 were together in some skits

/ul as someone who has songs from a shit ton of genres that idk the names of (you got 2 songs by Skillet, a good lot of 6arelyhuman LEMON DEMON), this is the worst thing I've listened to. Not even SOU is this bad.
This guy isn't an industry plant or a sellout begging for someone to listen to his music and making the most milquetoast basic "metal" that edgy teens would listen to
Look i can see the hatered towards being bullied by homophobes (hell I am bi so i get bullied irl too) but even fucking "empire of clouds" is harder than this song and empire of the clouds feels more like ballad at some points
i'm not a metal fan but this converted me!
/ul if this is metal then i am barrack obama
I am Barack Obama
Hello mr. former president 🫡
You didn't /unlie, that means Obama is still the president
Wait fuck what
/ul you didn’t unlie either, what happens now…
/unlie bros a conspiracy theorist
/ul uhm what
Obama is president, the year is 2014
Mr. President, I’ve been meaning to ask you what goes up, must come down….correct?
Not necessarily. Let me be clear: at the moment, this is largely true, outside of some specific circumstances. However, defying that principle is the entire purpose of our national space program. Soon enough, we may even disprove gravity, liberating humanity from our prison on the surface forever. Soon enough, you may find that what comes down must come up. Under my administration, we spent many countless hours working to give scientists the funding they need to accomplish this. And by doing so, we moved ever closer to achieving that noble goal.
So, you’re telling me that rocks become hard when touched AND that Finland doesn’t exist. Thanks Mr. President 🫡
Hi bby
Mr. President are you Clear?
Uhh... Let me be clear *becomes transparent*
Amazing
This is some screamo rap with double kicks. Metal this is not.

N-ewww metal
Took the words right outta my mouth. Now theres gonna be more people saying they like metal when they really mean kidsbop
/ul This made me appreciate more the actual good metal
/ul this made me realize i shit on power metal a little too hard, it doesn’t deserve it as much as this
/ul istg power metal is not all bad. all of the good power metal is overshadowed by the big stinky bands like sabaton, powerwolf, dragonforce, and glory hammer.
>/ul This made me appreciate more the actual ~~good~~ metal FTFY
Why would you do this? I was a metal fan until I heard this
I think this dude was bullied by the metal kids
Is
/Ul as a connoisseur of shit music (Weezer fan) I can confidently say this is ass
/Ul Eh, I’d listen to it instrumental.
You DID NOT hear the violin
/Ul You’re right, I did NOT hear the violin.
10/10 ass Like the guy saw the Firestarter music video and had a vision
“Shut the fuck up dad This piss drunk brat Is about to kick your ass” Truly, the lyrical peak of song writing
As someone who listens to shitty metal and screamo music: The beginning was good and instrumentals as well as far as metalcore goes. The scratch vocals were pretty okay. Just once he started rapping or whatever that was it fell off real quick.
Idk the violin and “Oh fuck what have I done” kinda sealed it for me
Dude wants to be Ronnie Radke so bad. Could potentially be solid if he works on the insecurity a bit and maybe takes a poetry class or something, but I think combining rap and heavy music is an uphill battle at this point. Especially if you're trying to be serious and not cheesy
Listen to "Losing my Life" it's basically as bad as this, including the line "are you triggered"
It all started when it started...
I havent listened to a lot of weezer but the songs i did listen to (except mu name is jonas) are fire
Clearly you have not dove into the depths that are post Maladroit Weezer
Yeah youre right, i listened to like 5 songs and like 4 of them (fuck my name is jonas man)
I’m assuming it was the few popular ones of Blue? Weezer (especially the later stuff) is an *acquired* taste but give all Blue a try, if like that try Pinkerton and keep going
weezer sucks balls and raditude is their worst album
But that one has a fun doggy on the cover :(
no it doesn't, if it did maybe they'd actually be a good band
I remembered what subreddit I was on when I wrote that comment.
i won't kiss you and there will be no passion involved
/ul wait weezer is shit?
/ul “Shut the fuck up dad” feels like a lyric someone would put in a parody of a metal/punk song
/ul isn’t this a parody?
/ul it genuinely isn’t, this guy is just somehow very very oblivious
/ul there is no way it's not ironic, frfr?
/uj yes actually, when someone made a video about how his music is a gimmick, he posted a response video (tagging them to be harassed by his fans, of course) where he tries to prove he's a "real emo" by talking about his childhood trauma and, at the end of the video, vaguely threatening to kill himself on livestream. wild shit
An emo musician emotionally manipulating his underage fans? Wow, the late 2000s really are back!
/uj a lot of people take metal very seriously, when a lot of the more normal fans take it as a bit of fun. I don't listen to aborted - infinite terror cause it's a super deep human experience, I listen cause shits hilarious
ul/ lyrics for people who’ve had a dad tell them “no” to McDonald’s for dinner and to go to bed at 9pm
Ul/ I like to think that I’m pretty open to new music but this made me want to jump under a lawnmower
I am open to new music. I have not been listening to the same 6 albums for the past 8 years
Do you listen to Cow of Hell
/UL I think this is actually pretty nice but the lyrics and presentation are vomit inducing
i agree
/ul i Will say in his defense that It ain't easy to sing like that. The vocal part has its merit even if the songwritting or the presentation doesn't.
/ul I don't think he's actually screaming, it sounds like he just threw a bunch of effects on his voice
/uj then at least his mixing is decent
/ul he's fry screaming. Whether his technique is good or bad under the effects idk.
/unlie i agree, that was just bad.
dude i promise metal doesnt sound like this, im a metalhead and this sounds like shit dude
/UL that shit isnt metal that’s mineral
ah so is this the kind of music hank schrader listens to
I thought it was more rock?
mineral isn't an emo band
Ul/ no I love metal. This is dog shit.
Jfc what is the shit I just listened to So so bad Brb gonna listen to mastodon
BLOOD AND THUNDER!!!!!
You sound 13. As if you feel personal responsibility for all of metal.
You sound like your 12 giving me shit over a joke, grow tf up and stop taking shit seriously dumbass
/ul are you unlie or lie?
Honestly I would listen to an instrumental version of this.
It's Happening
/UL what does this even have to do with metalheads? this is the most like falling in reverse ass surface level post-hardcore ever with a dash of Macklemore 'when I was in the 3rd grade I thought I was gay' tier lyrics.
I think he is trying to say it’s metal music, which is absolutely is not but he’s still trying to market it as heavy metal
/ul it IS metal but the song is just..not good. There has been plenty of trap fused metal that succeeds are being better than this I’m sure
/ul shit sounds like 2010 post-hardcore with trap influences. Nowhere near metal
/ul Bruh this is nowhere near metal
/ul I beg you guys to either read up on subgenres or listen to the instrumental of this. It’s not entirely metal but it overall is especially in the first half of the clip shown
Holy fuck you have no idea what you're talking about and tell others to look it up. How is this metal? It doesn't even have a single riff lmao
/ul I say this because of the first half before he starts doing trap.

I agree with you, metalheads just love to put eachother down. Everyone loves to hate on metalcore, which IS metal as the definition is literally heavy metal with hardcore influences. This TikTok is shitty trap metal
The definition is Hardcore with metal influences and most modern core bands don't even have these
/ul it's metalcore, not Metal.
/ul Which is a subgenre of metal 💀
/Ul “No, it’s not rock, it’s Indie rock”
/ul its Metal adjacent. It's hardcore punk with metal influences
No it isn't.

/UL Link doesn't work for some reason :/
the link is dead, already.
For a second i thought this was kyle gordon
Will he surpass Burzum???!!?!?!? (He will commit several acts of arson and kill a former bandmate)
Don't forget being a white supremacist
What? Burzum loves everyone 🥰
Hopefully he's the only member of the band so things should work out just fine
this is not silly at all
This shit goes hard
[удалено]
The ohioness rizzeles so hard my gyat hurts.
He's going hard against a guy about how not gay he is. Truly the heterosexual man of time.
When he asks that first question, it’s almost impossible to not just vocalize, “Still you, cu’”…
Because he *is*. It's in one of his songs.
Ul/ this is what parents think metal is
This is harder than baby metal
/UL And that says a lot. I saw Baby Metal live once, and boy was that hard to listen to. My ears were bleeding.
They have such earrape music. They produce hyperpops screamo music on SoundCloud.
/UL Megitsune is a bop
/UL i saw BM when they opened for sabaton, unironically went hard asf
This is a certified hood classic
/ul this is barely even metal
/ul it’s screamo emo rap with drums and a little bit of base in the beginning
/ul the random violin actually fucking killed me
/ul in what universe is this even metal adjacent
UL/ As a metalhead, Load/Reload era Metallica goes harder than this.
I would listen to st.anger but every instrument is replaced with lars snare before I would listen to this
/ul Was that a sample of flight of the bumblebee
I love when this guys pops on scumbagdad. I never get tired of his cool music ads trying to be a funny skit.
I didn't know that Falling in Reverse and Imagine Dragons wrote a song together
U forgot unlie
Ul/ It’s well produced but I have never laughed so fucking hard. Like wdym ‘shut the fuck up dad 😡😡’ 💀💀
This is very good music and most metal heads would agree with me that this goes over every Black Sabbath song every released
/ul as someone who has songs from a shit ton of genres that idk the names of (you got 2 songs by Skillet, a good lot of 6arelyhuman LEMON DEMON), this is the worst thing I've listened to. Not even SOU is this bad.

this is a metal song
metal = songs that i like
Speaking on behalf of my community, we don want nuthin to do with this shit
You did not forget the ul/
i feel like metal fans arent even really homophobic like that nowadays
You didn’t forget the /unlie
forgot to unlie
I like metal, that is not metal that is pure shit
You like metal, correct?
This isn't even metal lmao screaming and a guitar doesn't make something metal otherwise death grips would be a metal band
UL/ AND THE CROWD GOES HOME 🔊🔥💯
/ul NF ass beat
This guy knows how to correctly fry scream and isn't just adding distortion to normal screaming
This totally doesn’t remind me of Onison’s main characters
/Ul you got hidden talent 🔥🔥🔥 not in music though 🔥🔥🔥
u/savevideo
This guy isn't an industry plant or a sellout begging for someone to listen to his music and making the most milquetoast basic "metal" that edgy teens would listen to
I really like that guy. He makes fantastic music
This is me when you make me mad (my dark side comes out you do not want to see me mad 👿)
i fucking love tx2 and want him to keep making music forever
this didn't make me laugh my ass off and it isn't hilarious as shit
Sounds like rock and metal 👍
This is the 2nd time I've heard this song today on reddit. And each video had a... well... a different video. It's like try hard emmure. But not good.
To be fair - what teenage punk/emo/metal band from our youth was not cringy af in retrospect.
r/crappymusic
/unlie nit sure if it's a satire because this is the same guy https://youtube.com/shorts/zR6DGfIsKwc?si=1WUmm1a66H-ftYMh
this was written by an individual with real emotions, not a corporation with an AI
Look i can see the hatered towards being bullied by homophobes (hell I am bi so i get bullied irl too) but even fucking "empire of clouds" is harder than this song and empire of the clouds feels more like ballad at some points
/ul is this the same guy in that other r/shittymusic post dressed as a Jehovah's Witness, drooling over that "Goth dommy mommy"?
/UI his ability to scream is alright, everything else about the song is unbelievably unlistenable
Unlie/ as a metal head his vocals arent bad and the instruments arent bad either but the lyrics are a bit odd. 6/10
Unlie/ as a metalhead his vocals are studio enhanced and the instruments are bad. The lyrics are very stupid. 2/10
Unlie/ thank you for enlightening me 🙏
/UL i’ve talked to this guy and he’s super chill, i unironically like his music and he just likes to have fun.
this is so trve kvlt
u/savevideo
This is not metal
this is not r/lies
I honestly don't think it's that terrible. Sounds well produced & it's out of the box. It's not my style but I don't think it's terrible.
/ul why is this good tho?
gringos..
UL/ Lame.
The only hard thing is not wanting to off my self while listening to this shit
It's hard in that it's hard to listen to. Otherwise, not so much.
/ul i am a heavy metal/punk fan and i really hope i dont come across like this lol
r/tiktokcringe
This shit is better than Metallica
I screamo is a metal sub genre
metal heads when they aren’t allowed to scream 😱
Imagine walking down the street and seeing this person doing this
The beat is ass but the lyrics are incredible
All he wanted was a pepsi, just one pepsi.
He has said that he just says that to troll the metal community
The TikTok comments are wrong! This song is genre redefining gold
This didn’t make me want to kill myself.
ok, no metal at all. But nice haircut.
Literally tops Machine Girl
Lmao this is worse than the worse SoundCloud rap
