I know vaush posting is :haram: but holy shit watching a grown man go through his /mu/core phase like 12 years late is activating my fight or flight response.

      i mean like half of the albums on this list are just like albums that were popular like half a decade ago that most normal people have heard at least a few songs off of. like legit, metallica is listed on it, like as if they're some super obscure act that no one's heard of. the other half is like relatively unknown stuff like death grips that people treat like a personality trait rather than just like a band that they listen to casually. like if /mu/ kids weren't annoying as fuck half of these albums wouldn't have a reputation as overhyped meme music in my head lmfao

        NMH meme has been around for a long time. Godspeed is a meme going back to when I was in high-school, it's not even restricted to /mu/. It was a metal album/bad that you got into so you appear more intellectual than other nerds. Mars Volta was jumping off around that time too and used for the same reason. But it is a lot to do with late millennial nostalgia.
