Covenant has half a million views

That's the best selling dm album

Or was at one point in time

The closest you get for this stuff to popular is Skrillex with A$AP rocky

Maybe cannibal corpse has outsold them

Glitch Mob has been in a big video game recently.
Battlefield I, through a cover of another not quite mainstream song.

I've heard that song before

nah that song was rad as fuck in HS

It's a remix of a 2003 song from 2012 or so that randomly got picked up for a 2016 video game.

Yeah

The original

White stripes

I think I was a freshman when it came out

Video games must be bigger now than ever before

To warrant 22 million views on that

It had to have been popular before and got a boost from being in BFI.

1 hour cut and 10 hour cut have nearly 2 million and 700,000 views in 9 short months.

The original Seven Nation Army is a certified banger but I don't know just how popular The White Stripes are. In my mind there's this list of "alt" bands that sort of form an upper tier of being popular themselves.

The Killers, Arctic Monkeys, Death Cab, etc.

Beck? Was Beck ever alt?

Yeah. It makes perfect since that Neil from Krieg went indie rock journalism

There's a market for that kind of content

I'm unfamiliar with rock for the most part

Other than little ditties I hear here and there

I mainly listen to classical and metal

I see.

I remember reading on ANUS a long time ago that the genealogy of metal was actually straight from classical music and bypassed rock.

This gave me a hearty kek but certain people really seem to gravitate to both genres.

that's funny as hell

Dark Modernism Quartet

@Mosely metal arose from rock but is not rock

it arose from acid rock and garage punk and old horror movie scores

linking it directly to classical is not possible

other than guys imitating classical

Horror movie scores? That's interesting.

Hollywood gave a fucking nigger faggot movie best picture

niggers + faggots in the same poorly done movie

identity politics

the entire movie is about identity politics of a nigger faggot

what movie

has anyone else seen some classic rock documentary that features an odd tangent from an Atlantic Records exec about Kid Rock being the future of music?

I think it might have been about zep
