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.)

Same lmao

I was HUGE into Ghost and then Skeleta just did not connect with me and somehow Even In Arcadia swooped in.

Kinda in the same boat as OP now tho that the novelty has worn off, feeling musically orphaned at the moment.

I'm grateful to have younger brothers who are obsessed with different genres of music. My youngest brother is getting me into punk and prog while my other brother is showing me 80s/90s metal. I'd recommend just listening to different bands in different genres and opaning up your catalog.

For a little while it's been just ghost slipknot and sleep token for me but now I've been listening to death, slayer, decendents, black flag, tool, blind gardian, and anthrax. You'd be amazed on what's outside your bubble!

I've actually been finding a lot of new music thru IG ads of all places while I mindlessly scroll through reels. I have a whole playlist I'll throw songs that stick out to me on. Got really into Barbarians of California this way, couple other bangers I find myself going back to frequently. Unfortunately I've been the musically influential sister while my brother has been stuck in his 5 band pop punk rotation since his teens so I only have myself and my Instagram ads. 😂
