didn't goo goo dolls like using weird tunings in their songs too (not that they persisted much longer than eve 6 in the zeitgeist tbh)
anyway please block this guy's account and stop checking up on it
lol at him needing to openly mock his own band's sole significant hit (which is admittedly deserving of mockery) to get a few likes on twitter. if all goes well perhaps it'll help them secure a slot on a nostalgia tour with fastball and cake

Googled "heart in a blender song", expecting it to be like, "Oh yeahhh, this". Nope.
I knew the name but I'm pretty sure I'd never heard this band until now.

I agree dyl. It’s all kind of depressing.
― treeship., Thursday, 24 December 2020 03:53 (three years ago) link
Yes, with everything going on rn, people gawking at Eve 6 shitposts is the depressing thing
― Looking for Cape Penis house (Neanderthal), Thursday, 24 December 2020 04:04 (three years ago) link
Oh, I was thinking of stuff like Strokes/White Stripes/Killers. Nu metal bands used extra strings and drop tunings, yeah.

I linked the tweet on the sincerity thread (after listening) but this was true for me too.

i'm too lazy to look up the Nickelback thread but this kinda fits here better anyway (in terms of things I hate that keep showing up on my tl)

Yeah I don’t recognize the Heart in a Blender song either, but It sounds like something I would have heard if I ducked into a mall CD store after purchasing advanced Phantom Menace tickets.
― Muswell Hillbilly Elegy (President Keyes), Thursday, 24 December 2020 13:02 (three years ago) link
i had to look up the song. i know it as the "FAITH IN NOTHING" song. That bit goes way harder. wtf this brain stuff

*heart stuff. i can't even remember that line now!

feel like some people know it as the
*heart in a blender song*the 'beautiful oblivion' song*the 'rendezvous then I'm through with you' song*the 'terrible' song
― Looking for Cape Penis house (Neanderthal), Thursday, 24 December 2020 13:16 (three years ago) link
It’s not that terrible. As a kid I liked it because it had the word “rendezvous” and a few other long words.

you must have *loved* Bad Religion

just treated myself to "Noel! Noel!" on A Very Special Christmas 5. There are many "Brrrrrap!"s and a bridge where he sings "I like christmas" a bunch.
― kniphofia face (Sufjan Grafton), Thursday, 24 December 2020 16:43 (three years ago) link
I like every single one of those "oh that song" songs from that era -- heart in a blender, you're the one i want to take me home, doot doot doot, doot duh doot doot, all of them

lifehouse were def a hangover of this era with added vedderisms
― mellon collie and the infinite bradness (BradNelson), Thursday, 24 December 2020 17:37 (three years ago) link
(the lifehouse song i love is "spin," i even like the record it comes from)
I mean this is basically the era of "Songs that would occupy Mix CDs made by Teenaged Me, because I wasn't going to actually bother and purchase the entire album for one good song, and I was desperately trying to get into popular music but had no interest in Boy Bands, Rap, or Nu Metal". And over the span of several CDs, I ended up having FOUR separate Eve 6 songs on them!

This week I learned that Light in the Attic sells colored vinyl reissues of a bunch of albums from this era, including Eve 6

For some reason I keep mixing up the heart in a blender song with “desperately wanting” by better than ezra

Lifehouse always had secret "we formed in our church's youth group" vibes to me, but maybe it's because the singer reminded me of a kid from my church.

formative moment for 12 year old me: after months of listening to hanging by a moment on WHFS in that monumental summer of 2001 (nickelback's first hit! sum 41! alien ant farm! staind! FUEL!!!) - realizing just how bad of a singer the guy is after they started splicing in live performances from that year's HFStival
i realized then and there that we weren't entering a new golden age of recorded music. we were so close

god none of those dudes could hit a single note except staind guy. they played those live recordings for months!

Robert Pollard a few years ago: "At one point, I thought music couldn't get any worse than Alien Ant Farm. Now, I'm nostalgic for Alien Ant Farm".
― Halfway there but for you, Friday, 25 December 2020 03:37 (three years ago) link
lifehouse was definitely a 'secret youth group' kind of band that quickly revealed itself to be basically adult contemporary BUT "hanging by a moment" is a classic honestly, most of the 'authentic' alt rock bands could never
― dyl, Friday, 25 December 2020 03:44 (three years ago) link
that song is such a time capsule song
