What she said about winning a crowd over that is not there to see you, was exactly what I experienced in Budapest when they opened for BMTH. Nobody really moved, but by the end everyone was like, wow they're actually good and everyone started googling them. The exact same thing happened to me, I found a great band because of that.

@davidturner2974 7 месяцев назад

Love hearing her talk about the gatekeeping and the reactions from fans when they release something different from what fans expect from them. I'm one of those that love her clean vocals and enjoy their songs that employ both styles, and the harsh-only stuff isn't really for me but I love the variety they put out there and how uniquely they work inbetween those styles. Just love those guys and honestly, love that they exist inside but also outside of my wheelhouse.

@nomanbroman3556 7 месяцев назад

@Mozzarella3839 7 месяцев назад

i see why they talked about gatekeeping right before the collab with megan thee stallion dropped, honestly makes sense why thatd be on the mind

@stevemuzak8526 7 месяцев назад

Not many bands achieve that balance between brutal and mellow songs. Opeth is of course highest peak. Blackwater Park album is magnum opus of brutal and mellow music.

@Bellathor 6 месяцев назад

@@stevemuzak8526 You've probably heard of it but I loved Scar Symmetry's first 3 albums with Christian Alvestam on vocals - also a great blend of vocals in a song. Haven't given the other albums a proper listen yet, but I did like a bit that I've heard of the other albums too.

@breezetones 7 месяцев назад

Courtney's words about a band's sound and 'selling out' because they release melodic space over their 'real' sound is exactly the same that happened in my scene in 90's/Y2K's. Amazing how the same situation still happens (I'm sure actually across all music generations) with a fan's comments/concerns at large when a band is trying to find their path. Diversity- the true gift.

@seanciezki563 7 месяцев назад

I love how diverse Spiritbox is, it's what drew me to them. I paid to see them open for Shinedown/Papa Roach, not to see the headliners.

Re: koolaid-manning into fan spaces 1:00:00 I remember when Mike and Courtney would xomment in r/Spiritbox a few years ago when it was like a 500 person subreddit. Its still only about 8500, but they disappeared pretty quick once Eternal Blue came out and more people started showing up. I just love this band so much man, they're everything I've ever wanted in a band and their music tickles my brain in just the right way. If they stopped making music after The Fear of Fear, I would still have them as my #1 all time band. And I'm so thankful to have randomly had Trust Fall suggested to me via Spotify and Courtney's lows got me hooked and I've been here to watch them release banger after banger and watch their fan base grow and grow ❤️

@SocialRegressive 7 месяцев назад

My wife and I went to the Walmart AMP concert, mostly for Spiritbox and Shinedown. Turned out Papa Roach was pretty awesome, too. The whole concert was stupendous. This was a collection of vocal athletes, and the bands performed at studio-quality levels. We were totally floored. Spiritbox is fantastically talented live.

Yo soy muy fan desde que los escuche por primera vez, basicamente pq me siento muy identificados con ellos, hace una mezcla de sonidos que siempre quise hacer hace 15 años pero todos lo odiaban. Ellos lo llevaron a la realidad. Ahora mismo volvi a la guitarra, que tenia abandonada y este año he tocado mas que los ultimos 5 años juntos. Me vuelven esas ganas de hacer musica mezclando todas mis influencias, pero siempre desde el metal.
