My whole vibe and worldview changed for the better when I first started listening to 100gecs

Elemental affairs, it physically cannot.

I'm not sure but I think it has driven me slightly mad for better or worse

Sure did influence my file naming convention. Conditionally. :)

It's nothingness or Mu. The antithesis of life is good. Only one person was found worthy in the simulation of the great gift of consciousness and so thus to him, eternal life. Everyone else has secondary consciousness (since the tree of life offsprings from) but for reasons unknown why El could not gift his own matter. Why yes the world has changed and we are crashing hard into a demonic reality known as Sha.

Was about to say it sounds like shit, but after listening a bit, this is quality stuff, thanks for the introduction!

Can't get enough of Melodic Death Metal especially the ones that have very story driven lyrics and concepts, one of the better ones:

Insomnium is another band that does this amazingly well!

As someone who loves metal and a bit harder rock, that ending is immaculate!

I stopped actively listening to music and I feel like my life is a lot better. I'm not sure I can explain it, but there's something about music that makes it so it enters your mind and predisposes you to behave in ways that you wouldn't otherwise have behaved if you didn't listen to music. It's like subliminal messaging in a way, but it's not really subliminal. I think music has a way of bypassing the rational part of your mind, and make you behave irrationally.
Or maybe I'm just autistic and overstimulated by music.

I cannot even comprehend a reality where you can stop listening to music, how do you even center yourself? Do mundane tasks? Drive for longer distances? Have a break in life while dream, or just close off to the depression of silence?

Honestly, you are a special specimen to me, and I cannot imagine ever not listening to music.

>>40802639
nta but you cant have no rhythm, but you always get a heartbeat for free

>>40802654
So, what music did you listen too, not to sound like a stoner wanting you to find your strain of weed, but you sound like you never found the music for your soul.

you are what you eat. plato knew this. the music industry knows this.

All of what you said is true. I quit listening to music for a couple years, and my life improved. I think it depends somewhat on what type of music you listened to. I didn't listen to too much negative music, but even the occasional Radiohead song can bring you down.

The interesting thing was when I started listening to music again. It was like the color returned to my life. I had become very emotionally flat, and always focused on productivity or improvement. Listening to music occurred simultaneously with a change in me, where I felt the "life returning." I felt more joy. My taste in music also changed a lot. I now don't listen to music with lyrics very often. I did buy a bunch of old CDs from my childhood (stuff my parents listened to), and I pop those in when I want to feel a lot of emotion as they all have lyrics of one kind or another.

I think quitting music can be positive for someone in helping them achieve a flat and stable baseline. Reintroducing music adds a bit of variability, which brings both the positive and negative emotions out. If done in moderation and with awareness, this can be a net positive. Music also helps you feel less alone, more peaceful, and more focused depending on how it's used.

>feel less alone
Placebo if you never manifest an actual physical tulpa

OK, I think the type of music you listen to has a big impact, I stopped listening to emo and goth rock, or any music that has to do with feeling bad, and started to listen to more deep spiritual or meaningful music, or music that embodies a positive attitude.

That has indeed improved my mental and psychological perspective.

>In what ways does music influence your soul?
music can be used to enhance the kundalini rising or destroy it completely.

>>40802639
Silence is very peaceful and calm. I've just learned to be okay with no music, I guess
I'm just really suspicious of music, because it can have the power to totally influence people and change perspectives

>>40802671
I think this is especially true for music

I sit home and make flower bouquets and listen to Joni Mitchell.
