What's ur fav lifting music?

[JTP$]

I don't know. Some of the best music is being made today. Of course it's not in the mainstream. But if you look at what the mainstream was putting out even back in the 70's 60's and 50's, most of it was garbage.


I mean go listen one of Opeth's last few albums or go look at Porcupine Tree, Soen, Sons of Apollo, etc etc. In fact because of the fact that quality recording equipment has become very affordable and that the internet has given a direct pathway from the artists to the listeners, There's more stuff being made than ever before.

This is true, good music is still being made currently, but like you said, its the underground scene where actual quality is being made. mainstream music is trash, especially now. i remember in the 90s when alot of the mainstream was actually good though.

That’s why there were headphones & now ear buds. If you really do listen to bands like Pantera, then if you listen to it loud the way it’s intended to be listened to that will drown out any background bullshit.

I’ve been doing it since the first walk-men, portable cassette players came out. Problem is, your hearing will start to suffer. Mine has, but it was worth it & just another part of the sacrifice.

bro, i love listening to loud music, with headphones or in the car. i listen to music loud at home too, but i recently got reported to my HOA for noise complaints. damn snitches, if i was 20 years younger id aggressively doorbell ditch their house at 3 AM

loud music is starting to affect my hearing though.

I heard this before and I don't know if it's true or not. But every time you listen to something so loud you hear a really high-pitch ringing in your ears afterwards. That is the last time you're ever going to hear that specific pitch. It seem plausible to me, but I don't know.

im no expert on this, but i heard that the ringing in your ears is the result of having lost one or several of the hairs in your inner ear which are used for detecting sound. the length of the hair would impact which frequencies that hair can detect, so it seems likely this is 100% true.

My car was so well sound insulated plus the metal was so loud that I couldn’t hear fire engines. I almost collided twice at intersections. After the second time I habitually hit mute as I got near all intersections. Plus that trick kept me even better aware which is a necessity the way these nuts drive out here in Los Angeles.

The eardrum moves to the frequency and volume/intensity of the sound waves that hit it. That vibrates the fluid in the inner ear to the same frequency and intensity. There are different hair cells for different pitches. Higher pitches have a higher frequency, problem is, those are the hair cells closet to the eardrum & start to get damaged more quickly. The lower frequency hair cells for more bass sounds are further away.

Adults lose that higher frequency ability sooner.

Damn, there were shows that I had ringing for a few days, that and the headphones?!? Still I would do the same thing all again. My wife is getting more annoyed these days because of how often I can’t hear what she says, lol.

By like 1993, it was just one alternative group after another playing their basic 3-chord progressions and simple boxed pentatonic melodies (and one wasn't much different from the next). There were pretty cool thrash, death metal and black metal scenes around still, but it was most certainly not in the mainstream. I remember the "alternative" radio station KROQ in Pasadena CA having a promotion called "screw the crue" when Motley Crue was trying to put a comeback together as an attempt to foil it.
