Millennials listen to shit like Slaughter to Prevail and Sleep Token. Unironically tiktok zoomers have better taste.

it's hilarious that some insult coined by an NME journalist in the early 90s to describe about a half dozen obscure bands has become the zoomers most important genre

in middle school? i was probably listening to at the drive in a lot. modest mouse was still good at that point. coheed, got to see them in like ~05 and they were awesome. fugazi was in heavy rotation. i remember i got in on the kill taker because of the cover (i was going on my 8th grade DC trip), and end hits. already had repeater too.
that first fall of troy album was pretty fierce when it came out too, altho i still think the old ghostship demos were their best.
honorable mention to horse the band. i hated metalcore but they were way too fun live. also that one converge album (petition the empty sky?) was pretty good, but that was old even by my time

heres a great 00s band no one ever talks about
bear vs shark

that was maybe my favorite band back in middle school. definitely the coolest show id ever seen at that point

idk im not trying to come down all hard on you like that other guy. i just rly dont understand why you all seem to gravitate towards the most boring forgettable music of the time. even back then as retarded kids we knew that shit was radioslop. it was cashgrab nonsense. there was too much actual cool stuff to pay attention to that

go watch random 00s skate vids. youll find a ton of way better stuff

Millennials were all about the indie landfill like Arcade Fire, The Strokes, Death Grips and Animal Collective. Contrary to popular belief, they also partook in reviving cringy old bands but instead it was Neutral Milk Hotel and Radiohead

Deftones is alt metal up front but they definitely have their shoegaze moments.

Yeah horse the band and at the drive in, are pretty good bands Not my favorite in the world, but I like some of their stuff. Modest mouse is eh. I Can't stand Coheed though.

I Listened to the Bear Vs Shark stuff you posted, not bad, I just wouldn't go out of my way to listen to it.

>i just rly dont understand why you all seem to gravitate towards the most boring forgettable music of the time. even back then as retarded kids we knew that shit was radioslop.

Boring and forgettable? How? Show me another band from their era that sounded anything like they did. You can't. Even now, 25 years later, White Pony sounds otherworldly.

Also Define radio slop, Does this mean engaging music with good hooks that don't bore you death? If yes, then guilty as charged.

If your curious, here are some bands I enjoy: Alice in Chains, Deftones (obviously), EARLY Lacuna Coil (nothing past 2006), Norma Jean (First two albums especially), Primus, Nothingface, Symphony X, CKY, Yakuza, Mastodon, Strapping Young Lad, Prototype

because it copies American Shoegaze which uses more fuzz than reverb and is therefore closer to mbv than any of your boring reverb bands
