Watched this on a suggestion from a buddy on a guitar forum. I didn't have a lot of hope for it but wound up watching the whole thing. I have searched more of their music and found it ok can't complain.

She sang an old Freddie Fender song and got on a team. I’m not clear on how these shows work but they aren’t real time. I know this because she’s been playing local shows 4 nights a week since her first appearance, which means she’s not working with her “coach” right now. Anyway, I just read that the kid (she’s 19) is on again tonight in whatever the hell the “battle round” is, so I’ll probably watch out of curiosity. I know her from brief chats of encouragement a couple of years ago when she played outdoors at a small daiquiri shop downtown on weekends and she’s a sweet kid, so it’s interesting to follow.

I don't watch the show but I subscribe to the Youtube channel. I saw that and sent it to my brother. I liked it and knew he would too. We were living in Texas in the early-to-mid 70's. Looks like she got the 'save' and is staying on the show for a bit, as the show is playing out rather than in real time. |

I admittedly have listened to very little new music in the last two decades. I like the stuff I liked from age 12 to about 25, which for me is early 90's to early 2000s. My buddy who has similar taste in music is always playing me new stuff I've never heard and it pretty much never gets me that excited. That being said....he played me this yesterday from some band I've never heard of (Sleep Token) and I gotta say I'm intrigued. Very unique and kind of genre shifting all throughout the song. I understand they're kind of considered metal but not really. And I kinda dig the theatrical storyline/anonymity and mythology stuff in the little I've read about them since yesterday.

Sleep Token is Imagine Dragons with down tuned guitars imo.

I think there is actually an argument that todays music SHOULD be better than music at least the 3 or 4 decades before it. From 1980 to 2009 music was mainly mass produced by people in suits and there wasn't alot of grassroot movements. It was made by corporations and record labels masquerading as unique and creative from the people. Now almost all music is found on social media first and is liked by the people before it is massively popular.

Ha!! My 8 year old son loves Imagine Dragons. I’ve listened to a few other ST tracks since I posted and it’s ok. It kinda gives me an Deftones vibe tbh. Again, my musical taste just never evolved past the age of about 23-25. I’m a hard rock/metal fan but just stopped listening to the radio after college and never had a desire to seek out new bands to like. And the rap I like is DEFINITELY 90’s and early 00’s. That mumble rap shit is awful to me and whatever is popular now I probably just don’t know about.

Down tuning just makes everything heavier. I remember the first time I heard Black Sabbath tuned to E flat or Soundgarden in D. The problem now is that extreme metal has embraced more strings, most notably an additional B string below E. So everybody is playing in B standard but not down tuning so to speak. |

But there were some bands that made it just by playing in clubs and connecting with fans. College radio was also a thing. For instance, student DJ's in college radio stations was probably a key part of REM's success.
