A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Marcus King ROCKS and he is not good looking. Charismatic as fuck on stage too.

I think there is about the same proportion of good music to bad as there ever was, you just don't hear the bad music of the past because it didn't last. Survival bias, I think it's called.

The issue is marketing, go to Bandcamp and have a route around

Which route should I take?

For sure, as a teenager - interest in music switched from interest in music to finding music videos that got girls in 'em'.

I make music but I'll never perform it for people that judge music by appearance.

Music is better when you listen to what brings you joy and stop caring about the physical appearance of the artist.

I'd like to thank this thread for reminding me to check out some new music. Just today, I have discovered MJ Lenderman and Still House Plants who both seem to be doing some cool stuff that's right up my alley. There's a new Mogwai track released a few days back and Sumac just released an amazing sludge metal album, even though I'm not really into sludge, it might convert me. A quick few image searches shows me that none of them are particularly attractive. Music has always been, and always will be awesome regardless of the physical appeal of the lead singers.
