friend wants me to join his band since the previous vocalist left. they play at a lot of events and venues and shit and my friend says it's easy to get laid if you're in a band.

Does this work for a 4/10cel cause that's what I am
 
idk try it nothing to lose.
you inhib will improve at least..................
 
Do it bro, don't know if you'll ascend but sounds like a good cope
 
I'd rather learn guitar and privately play for my waifu.

Or even have a waifu that plays guitars and teaches me as well and we play together.
 
Wish i could have a band

tbh my musical talent is the only thing that keeps me going. maybe one day i'll statusmax but probably not
 
already tried it, drummer tried controlling the direction of band (just shut up and keep a fucking beat), now I just do solo industrial noise.

No unless you really make it big.

I'm also around that rating and playing in bands for years never brought me anything regarding sex and romance even though some of my bands got somewhat popular and played around a bit.

Whst is this, the 80s?

It could have potentially worked in the 70s, right up until the early 00's

Face it, bands don't really get a lot of fanfare these days, let alone success. The only "groupies" (if any) tend to be fedora wearing, neckbeard, craftbeer drinking soyboy cucks.

Oldcel grandpas always seem to give advice to knowing incels with bullshit like "just learn to play a guitar. Girls love that" JFL! That doesn't work, especially today, and more especially if you're ugly. The best type of bandmaxxing you can do today would be DJmaxxing and mumblerapmaxxing... would still be a long shot though
 
It does work, especially if you become successful. Look at Nick Cave, he's like 3/10

It might work if you find the right style and hide behind some sort of indie look.
Then again, this is not the 90's anymore. Weezer wouldn't work in the modern environment.
 
give it a try but don't expect too much. bandmaxxing is pretty much just statusmaxxing so it really depends on how big you can get with your band. i'm giving it 100% and we'll see if our new album changes anything, we got legit producers working on this shit. my oneitis (i know, JFL at having a oneitis) showed some interest in my music but thats it nothing happened
 
I've always wanted to be in a band.

Drummers are always hyper aggressive scrappy dudes who all of the women love. I don't know why people like that have success in the world. Their behaviour is a massive affront to my self respect, but I guess most people don't have any of that.

It's telling, though, that women always fall for the least talented and soulful member of the band (drummer). They just want caveman smash-time.

tbh

Looks like a horse with a recessed chin.

I remember a quote of his about his time in art school where he said something like, "I was successful at being avoided by girls".

But even when he was making music like this



...he probably did alright.

As long as someone is watching you awestruck, a foid will be there to experience this attention vicariously.

Nick Cave is a tallfag

How about Mark E. Smith? He was 5'8" or something.

He has a prominent chin and nice jawline. His eye area is just trash. Michael B Jordan has no fucking chin but everything else is good so he's considered attractive.

Bad enough to make him about 4/10. There's no way this guy:



can be considered conventionally attractive. Still got plenty of whores.

There's also Irish Jagger to consider:

And Genesis P-Orridge (look up some current pics for a surprise):

It’ll only work if the band gets any exposure, touring pubs ad infinitum doesn’t cut it imo.

I also get the feeling (which might be totally wrong) that a lot of women are coming around to the idea that a guitar is akin to a fedora, and disregard the people playing in bands, apart from scene girls and the like of course.

Mark E. Smith mogs me, just by a bit. but I heard he was also an asshole to his other bandmembers.

yea he got laid a lot, I didn't. ever wonder why Big Black never had foid fans (to my knowledge) at least back in the day? they used a drum machine. and their lyrics were pointedly offensive. too bad Albini went soy.
 
If you emofagmaxx you could prolly get wit some prime jb :feelsokman::feelsokman:
 
that's what my drummer tried to make us into, the next American Football. I was like NO, we're an aggressive hardcore band and WE'RE NOT FUCKING DOING THAT. he packed up his shit and left. I still talk to him once and awhile. he's going thru a divorce atm with a daughter. my bassist is dating a black girl (that's odd, my bassist is a white dude, his dad doesn't approve, but is like "well he's a grown man, I'm not gonna run his life anymore") meanwhile the guitarist/singer (me) has an awful time so I just started doing solo projects instead. we had a fourth member, a singer but he left after the first or second demo. he's now on psychotropics and doesn't get out often.

that's sad. people would rather fuck DJs instead of guitarists. and this is coming from a guy who like Nihil Fist and Passenger Of Shit, both who use turntables. but they like bad IDM music and would rather get with a nog than someone with a modicum of talent.
 
Tried it. Everyone in the band get girl except me

Indie college foids love this kind of thing. They were all over this band:



It probably doesn't have as wide of an appeal as in the 90s, but the frail hipster kid style still has cachet with a certain niche of foids.
 
so what? you think his wifes married him because he was tall, or because he is one of the most talented and charismatic musicians?
Yes, his wife married him because he was tall and had money. Being tall gives off a halo effect. It's way harder to make it in the music industry when you're short and ugly than when you are tall and ugly. It's like how taller people earn more money.

Yeah, he was a touchy and domineering bandleader in the James Brown tradition. Foids love that kind of Napoleon complex bellicosity, so it's no wonder he made a place for himself.

All the members look like they've got something to -cel.

Then again, bands like Cop Shoot Cop (Tod A. looks to be about 6'4") and Pussy Galore (Spencer seems like a manlet though + they had an incompetent foid guitarist) never seemed to gain much attention from foids, despite having good-looking frontmen (both of those guys actually used to be in the same band - Shithaus - during their years at Brown). Whores are typically philistines who keep a wide berth from anything good, even when you bait them in with a Chadlite - however, related to the theme of the thread, the simple act of occupying a stage and projecting status will allow most people to scrape up a crust of alternafoids, however thin it might be.

This is my plan. Looks are the most important part of pop-music, but if I dress trendy and the girls are drunk enough I think I may have a shot.
 
if you are white and have decent height do it.
 
theres less than 1 percent chance of a band succeeding in any meaningful way, but if you mean just playing little shows at local places than yeah maybe it can work.

every heard of these guys? heard the singer went onto Oxbow, a band I actually dig

Yeah, I've heard of Whipping Boy but never actually got around to hearing them. I'll have to give this a listen sometime soon.

Oxbow are great - I especially like An Evil Heat and their most recent album. I think @Lindys has posted their stuff here before as well.

I saw them live, one of the few shows I've been to. My favorite song of theirs:

Was that last year? I was moving while they were on a very limited set of tours and didn't get a chance to see them unfortunately.

As a whole, The Narcotic Story is one of their least compelling albums to me, but the high points are outstanding. This is probably my favorite on it:

 
I also just picked up some Pussy Galore the other day after avoiding them for years on end. actually pretty fucking good, like 60s blues and rock n roll mixed with industrial.

Yeah, they seem a bit effete and hipsterish from a distance (Hagerty's next band with his junky gf, Royal Trux, is more along these lines), but they made some pretty good music.

I only have this live album, but it's great:



These guys are good, in a similar vein. Swap out the Rolling Stones for Lightnin' Hopkins - they've got the same "Industrial + Blues" approach:

Yeah, last year. They were at Cambridge I think.

Narcotic Story is my second favourite from them, first being King of the Jews.
