    Luciferian Towers is my jam, Anthem For No State III hits me hard in the catharsis every time.

    FYI Bandcamp is owned by Epic (Of Unreal and Fortnite), but notable enshittification has not yet begun. The site still lets you play unpurchased audio in full (A certain number of times), offers DRM-free formats after purchase in perpetuity, shares 80-85% of music and merch sales with the artist, doesn’t nag you to use their app when you’re on their site, and runs several weekly radio shows spotlighting new releases.

      There are also a handful of Fridays throughout the year when Bandcamp waives their cut and sends 100% to the artists. Next one is May 1st.

      Recently bandcamp declared they prohibited all AI “music” on their platform. So, definitely they are one of the best platforms. Qobuz (French streaming service) also has an option to buy and download music. May be an option to support artists not presented on Bandcamp

      Oh that is concerning, thanks for the information. But yeah, I didn’t realize anything different when I last week bought something compared to last time some years ago.

    Afaik some physical versions of this album had nice printed charts that show how their publisher is connected to defense contractors.

    I am not surprised they’re off streaming services.

    My ex is into this. Super funny because she is the quintessential dog-mom white girl.

    I’m really enjoying that motherfucker track.

        Perhaps not. Maybe just strange of me to assume things about people’s preferences

    If anyone could get me into their Discord again that would be awesome. I threw myself out and realized their invite link had just been removed, so couldn’t get back in.

    It was indispensable to know whether they are doing a show in my country or not.

    I’ve got a nearly complete vinyl collection of their music. They usually come with pretty neat inserts.

Community Rules

You must post before you leave

Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.

Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.

Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very “off topic”.

Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.

Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.

Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.

Avoid AI generated content.

Avoid misinformation.

Avoid incomprehensible posts.

No threats or personal attacks.

No spam.

Moderator Guidelines

Moderator Guidelines

  • Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
  • Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
  • When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
  • Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
  • Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
  • Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
  • Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
  • Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren’t unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
  • Don’t rush mod actions. If a case doesn’t need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
  • Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
  • Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
  • Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
  • First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
  • Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
  • No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
  • Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
  • Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.
