Ever think to yourself, you know what could make the Ocarina of Time OST better?

Demaster it into chiptunes, so it sounds like the classic 8-bit cart, and then put it on vinyl, because that would be hilarious.

They met on AOL when the lead singer was 14.

They were the second headliner for the 2003 Nintendo Fusion Tour, behind Fall Out Boy.

This EP was an acoustic set of 5 new songs.

I still have no idea who Seahaven is, but it sounds like a really nice place.

If it's Winter Forever, my dream of solitude will come to fruition. None of these peasants have survival skills beyond foraging at Wendy's.

Not familiar with the legend of Wolfmother.
But this is indeed a hard rock album.

I prefer the modern reincarnation of AC/DC, AKA Airbourne.

Also, TiL JET was not a British band.

The band pretends it doesnt exist. It's lyrically shallow on the surface, musically simple, bedroom lofi, & Bemis wrote it when he was like 15

It's 70 mins of pure, raw emotion, like only teenage angst can deliver.

Band's history is so random.

Most well known for 1993's 'Runaway Train', there is some form of intangible lost sound from that era.

You can hear it everywhere from Counting Crows to Taproot, and Blue's Traveler. It's present in Soul Asylum's September 27, 2024 - Lucky number 13th album,

Sudden Suspension apparated, dropped 3 fun eps, culminating with, "There's a Bigger Picture Here"

Then they got really into mini malls, and no one ever saw them again…

This Ride - Criminally unheard track

Kevin the Apocalyptic Postman Costner would laugh in the face of this oxymoronic album title, juxtaposed the band name.

I heard some college folk tell tale of the Slaughter Beach dog. Some have called Jake Ewald the Bob Dylan of his generarion, but Bob Dylan isn't even dead.

If I built a time machine, I'd still be screwed, because every Tammy was the homecoming queen.

On June 21st, 2011, during the height of the Neon Pop Punk era, that Ayy LMFAO, killed mall emo for a decade.

The Story So Far, named after a New Found Glory song, quietly dropped their, now legendary, debut. The Post HxC Pop Punk epic, "Under Dirt and Soil".

if we learned anything from myspace... it was that, not only was Tom everyone's friend.

He was their best friend, let us not forget the great database migration "accident", that nuked years of myspace history, that absolutely needed to go away 🀣

GOB - The World According to Gob

Rare when your 2 favorite tracks from an album, aren't any of the singles.

144 & Looking for California

Barely relevant Canadian facts: If you're a Sum41 fan, Tom Thacker, frontman for GOB, has been backing vocals and co-lead guitar for S41 since Screaming Bloody Murder.

Another forgotten mid-aught poppunk gem.

Getting its first press, 20 years post release.

Duel accepted, if you disagree that the title track isn't the best, poppunk, Romeo & Juliet song of all time.
