The Web invaded Mainframe
Sprite and virus battled side by side,
Attempting to reclaim the city
from the rift which opened wide.But Megabyte betrayed Bob and
he threw him deep inside the pit.
The pit was closed and Bob was hosed
and all that he could say was “Nooo!”Without Bob to protect us
we thought we would have no barrier,
From he who would infect us
except Enzo, which was scarier,
The city shivered terrified
from fear of the Infector’s touch…“I guess your fear was verified, I wasn’t a protector much.”
(I guess our fear was verified, he wasn’t a protector much)
(I guess our fear was verified, he wasn’t a protector much)
(I guess our fear was verified, he wasn’t a protector^ector^ much)It wasn’t Enzo’s fault at first
he only was a little Sprite,
At best he was the worst but then
he slowly learned to do it right,And just as he was getting skilled
a Game came down he couldn’t win,
I thought for sure they’d both been killed,
first Bob then Enzo, not again!(And just as he was getting skilled a Game came down he couldn’t win)
(She thought for sure they’d both been killed, first Bob then Enzo, not again!)I went from Game to Game
I aged, I grew and lost my innocence,
I soon became enraged by each
and ev’ry bad experience,The Sprite you knew was gone
I had become a grim aggressor man,
I knew from that point on
that I was truly Bob’s successor man.(The Sprite we knew was gone, he had become a grim aggressor man)
(He knew from that point on that he was truly Bob’s successor man)I met up with the Webriders
and took the form of Interface,
I joined my gun with pirate swords
and sailed the seas of cyberspace,And when at last the pair of us
were fin’lly reunited guys,
Our shouts of joy did blare because
we really were delighted guys.We soon made tracks to Mainframe
so our friends could reunite with us,
We made it back and Megabyte
was waiting there to fight with us.When Bob went
face to face to face to face
with Hexadecimal…his chances for survival shrank from small to infin’tesimal.
(His chances for survival shrank from small to infin’tesimal)
(His chances for survival shrank from small to infin’tesimal)
(His chances for survival shrank from small to infin’tesi^esi^mal)Bob helped to defragment my head
while Matrix fought with Megabyte,
I thought he’d wind up dead
but Matrix put up a terrific fight.I’d dreamed of this each lonely night
of doing in that virus trash,
But just as I had won the fight
he engineered a system crash!(You dreamed of this each lonely night of doing in that virus trash)
(But just as you had won the fight he engineered a system crash)What Megabyte had hoped to do
was cause his death to crack us up,
I gambled on the User to ReBoot
and thereby back us up.It worked! We all were born anew
and rid of things barbaric,
And now we’re back together,
Ev’rything’s alphanumeric!(It worked, we all were born anew and rid of things barbaric)
(And now we’re back together, ev’rything’s alphanumeric)___And now we’re back together, EVERYTHING IS ALPHANUMERIC!!

Sorry that these are all YT links.Clearly I’m a RA fanboy, but I look at the state of the world and I hear their songs, and they’re the same picture. I can’t ignore their music.
(ehem…except for the new Ricochet album with its questionable production decisions)

Thank you for this image.
Years ago I saw a pic of a puke-inducing sunlit living room with “Home is where the heart is” superimposed over the image. It looked like a soulless ad for overpriced white-woman-instagram furniture.
And someone overlaid an image of THIS MAN but with like 1% opacity, like it was a ghostly face haunting the scene. You wouldn’t even notice it if scrolling too fast.
I loved it and I miss it and this brought me back.

I enjoy that community as a non-participant. A user’s decision to merely interact can reveal much more than they intended to reveal - super interesting to me. Just the existence of the community pits dudes with insecurities against their own lack of self control or social tact, for all to see.
Future me might comment there too quickly after overlooking the community name. I’ll get a warranted Tsk and I’ll see myself out. No big deal. It’s not a kick in the nuts unless I make it one.

rising up against all of this
Does Rise Against count?
I am not a good gatekeeper of “mainstream” or “sellout” etc but this feels like a hostile thread so I guess criticism is incoming.
I feel like the entirety of RA’s discography fits this theme perfectly. The songwriting is part of why I can’t get enough.
(I can’t speak for their recent Ricochet album - the sound quality is poor and lots of fans hate it; we hope we get a rerecording some day. Set aside Ricochet and I feel like you can’t go wrong with anything else of theirs.)
Trying to list deeper cuts that might be good hooks:
Album / Song:
The Black Market / Bridges
The Black Market / People Live Here
Endgame / Disparity by Design
Endgame / Midnight Hands
Endgame / A Gentleman’s Coup
Nowhere Generation / The Numbers
Nowhere Generation / Sudden Urge
EP Nowhere Generation II / Holding Patterns
Wolves / Welcome to the Breakdown
Appeal to Reason / Entertainment
EP / MegaphoneAnd you can’t go wrong with the back to back tracks “Prayer of the Refugee” followed by “Drones” from the album The Sufferer and the Witness.
Even older albums have good stuff but I didn’t list them since idk if you’d call them “modern”. Tip the Scales + Give It All are good tracks.

I wanna ask - for you, has it always seemed like that over the course of 10 years?
I was on social media for what would’ve been 20 years, and I feel like it was 10 years ago that enshittification passed a tipping point.
