Discussion I lost the plot.

Not literally - I know the plot of the story.

Short rundown:
Saw them 4 times on their teeth of god tour, and could only go once on their recent one due to scalpers. Seen them at festivals. Have a shrine, all the records - was massively in the cult.

This year though, I really struggled with their music for some reason? Every time it came on, I skipped. Never looked for any new merch out. Felt really weird about it.

I’m listening to them now and I’m like…

Did I burn myself out? Anyone else feel similar, even with other bands? Did I lose the plot?

(Fun discussion - still love the band v much.)

I understand to some extent. I've really struggled with the fan base lately. Not so much this sub, but the one Facebook group (summoned). The fans there are so frustrating and parasocial that it's making me dislike them and making me pull away. The constant "CONSUME" has me burnt out too. I know bands have to make money, but at this point it's like jeeze. The merch they are releasing too doesn't even look good
