It wasn't just postponed—it was canceled, as far as I know.

Men' only thing that matters is they make it out to Washington, D.C. once a year, right when you're actually craving the trip 🙂

Exactly! Just keep feeding us that emo crap so we can cut our wrists and rock those girly haircuts that even the guys in Blur or Oasis would be too embarrassed to pull off...

It all kicked off when that famous manager, Techa Morales, started looking for five good-looking guys to form a boy band...

I suppose I should probably get around to posting something meaningful, though my mind keeps drifting back to that old coffee shop in San Francisco I visited last summer. You know the type—dim lighting, slightly overpriced espresso, and that specific scent of roasted beans and old paper. Anyway, where was I? Right. Just thinking about how much things change over time, much like how certain musical tastes evolve. It’s funny how you can go from listening to heavy metal to finding peace in some quiet indie folk, isn't it? Life just sort of pulls you in different directions. Sometimes you're running full tilt toward a goal, and other times you're just sitting on a porch in the suburbs, watching the sunset and wondering if you ever really understood what you were chasing in the first place. It’s all very philosophical, I guess. Or maybe I just need more caffeine. Regardless, I'm here now. What's on everyone's mind today?A EMaybe. Perhaps. It’s all purely speculative at this point, really. I don't quite follow what you mean by "B," but I'm here if you wanted to start a conversation or if there was something specific on your mind. Sometimes things just get lost in translation, or maybe it was just a typo—happens to the best of us. Anyway, I'm around.I haven't quite figured out what you mean by that. If you were trying to start a conversation or share something specific, feel free to lay it out for me. I'm around. AI’m sorry, I didn't quite catch that last bit. Could you please clarify what you meant? I want to make sure I understand you correctly before I respond. NJEGA EPaul Davis51

The 17th release from Atheist Rap, specifically regarding their work in the Second Division West, is something I’ve been thinking about quite a bit lately. It brings back those old memories of hanging out in San Francisco, just drifting through the streets, trying to find that specific kind of energy you only get from underground music scenes. I remember sitting in a small coffee shop—not one of those big corporate chains, but a real local spot—just listening to tracks like these on loop while watching the fog roll in. There was a certain weight to the music, a sense of purpose that felt very grounded. It wasn't just noise; it had this structured, almost academic quality to it, even when it was raw. It reminds me of how some artists can be incredibly technical yet still feel deeply human, which is a rare balance to strike. Anyway, I found myself revisiting these tracks last night, and honestly, they hold up better than most of the stuff hitting the mainstream charts today. There’s a sincerity there that you just don't see much anymore.

I'm heading out.

I suppose I should probably get around to posting this, though my timing is always a bit off. I was sitting here thinking about how much things have changed lately, just staring out the window at the traffic in San Francisco, and it hit me that I hadn't shared this yet. It’s funny how those little moments catch you off guard. Anyway, here goes nothing.

To wrap things up with a few more videos...

I was just sitting here thinking about that video—you know the one—and I couldn't help but drift off into a bit of a daydream. It’s funny how certain clips just pull you in, isn't it? It reminds me of those long afternoons back in San Francisco, just wandering through the streets, feeling like time didn't really exist. There’s something about the way this is presented that feels almost nostalgic, even if it's something entirely new. I found myself staring at the screen, lost in thought, wondering why we get so attached to these little digital moments. It’s a bit like being stuck in a quiet coffee shop in Washington, D.C., where everyone is busy, but you're just perfectly content to sit there with your latte and let the world spin on without you. Anyway, I suppose I'm rambling. It’s just one of those things that caught my eye and wouldn't let go. Sometimes you find a piece of media and it just hits a chord you didn't even know was vibrating. Just a thought.

I can't quite get this link to play on my end—it seems to be broken or maybe just taken down. I was actually sitting here with a lukewarm cup of coffee, thinking about how much tech changes, and I really wanted to see what you were sharing. If you could drop a fresh link, I’d love to give it a look. It's funny how even the simplest things like a URL can just go sideways on you sometimes. Let me know!

I happened to stumble upon this video on YouTube earlier today, and I have to say, it really got me thinking about how much things have changed over the years. It’s one of those clips that just pulls you in, isn't it? It reminds me of a rainy afternoon back when I lived in Seattle—just sitting there with a lukewarm cup of coffee, lost in thought. There’s something about certain pieces of media that hits a nerve you didn't even know was exposed. You start watching for one reason, maybe just to kill five minutes while waiting for a meeting to start, and suddenly you're an hour deep into a rabbit hole of nostalgia or existential dread. Anyway, I'd love to hear what everyone else thinks about this. Does it resonate with you, or am I just getting old and sentimental? Let's discuss. Rough.

Anyone else here actually a fan of this band? 🙏🙏🙏

Cheerful, upbeat stuff—perfect for choir rehearsals or just dancing around the living room. 🙂

But honestly, starting a whole new thread just to dump song lists from an album and name three icons? That’s absolute nonsense. 👎

I have a few buddies who absolutely live for them, but personally, I think their sense of humor is just tragic... 🤷

I wouldn't go so far as to call him pathetic, really. It’s just not funny to me, and honestly, the music is kind of grating 🤷

I honestly just love them. Everything about them hits the right note for me—from their songwriting to their stage presence—and the guys seem like such genuinely friendly people. Their show at the Spider last year was absolutely incredible; easily the best concert I've ever been to 👍, so naturally, I had to go ahead and grab myself a t-shirt 🙂

From the Kset website:

Atheist Rap (Novi Sad)

Self-proclaimed as one of the biggest punk-rock bands in the region, they are making their debut at KSET. Their signature strength lies in those high-energy, raw performances and lyrics that truly stick with you—which explains why, even after 18 years, they’re still packing out clubs. With a full two-hour set featuring plenty of hits from their entire discography and a promotion for their new DVD (which will be available for the first time here in the US), there’s plenty of reason to hurry up and snag your tickets.

Tickets are available for $12 at Dirty Old Shop, Dancing Bear, and KSET. At the door, they will be $15. Doors open at 8:00 PM, and the show kicks off at 9:30 PM.

Honestly, my absolute favorite track has to be "Western Europe," but I just can't seem to track it down anywhere online... it’s simply too good to miss.
