Be cool to each other
No harassment, hate speech, slurs, bullying, doxxing, or self-harm encouragement. Critique music, not people.
Gatekeeping isn’t a vibe
No “real fans” policing or dunking on newcomers. Help people discover.
Keep it about the music (and adjacent culture)
Songs, albums, artists, tours, scenes, history, gear/production talk, playlists, interviews, and real discussion. Off-topic drama gets removed.
Don’t spam or self-promote without contributing
Sharing your band/playlist/video is welcome—just be part of the community too.
Credit + context required
For song posts, use Artist – Track (Year) in the title, and add 1–2 sentences in the body on why it’s worth a listen. For clips/quotes: include the source.
No pirated content
No leaks or illegal downloads. Official links/streams/Bandcamp/merch only.
No memes
No reaction images or meme-only posts—keep it music-first.
Mod discretion + appeals
I’ll remove content that clearly breaks these rules or the spirit of the community.
