Because melon pretends to hate nu-metal so they copy what he does to be "cool"

Funny since melon is the biggest Meme Grips fanboy around

A board of thousands of people generally liking one thing doesn't mean some of those people can't hate another thing that you in particular feel is its modern equivalent.

Also nldw has a place in this board's history, so it's not even right to assume its there in the sticky purely because its beloved, rather than also for its significance.

NLDW is a meme because the album cover is a member of the band's erect cock

And how is this significant exactly? By being posted on the day of its release?
Or because of the album cover that was extremely popular among Facebook and 9gag users for some time after the release? Not sure what it has to do with the history of the board anyway.

The ARG

>nu-metal
>most famous album doesn't even use guitars
wat

So it's significant because they are confirmed to be related to the viral marketing?

I think you missed the point

>nu-metal, check
>[reference to popular sites to lump together fanbase], check
>viral marketing, check
You've made similar statements before haven't you OP?

No it's significant because this board was instrumental in progressing the ARG, and for its duration there were countless threads in the catalog dedicated to deciphering clues, which really engendered a sense of board community. When when the album leaked, it was hugely cathartic and there were tons of listen-along chatrooms and the board was basically out of service due to NLDW posting for weeks

>what are shills
Is this your first week? Nobody actully likes Death Grips on here.

the nu metal sound aged kinda poorly overall but produced some memorable tracks for those that followed that and the alternative metal wave when it was going strong

>the board fell for the viral marketing big time is why this album is significant
Ok but this is actually quite embarrassing don't you think

yes user, death grips pays people to post that they like their music on Sup Forums

Death Grips being nu metal is a failed meme.

nu metal is where their roots are

Not really because you're a silly reactionary if you believe that viral marketing is inherently and only ever bad; as with anything it's about the way it's handled, and the ARG was extremely engaging and unique. It's incomparable to lazy viral marketing along the lines of just spamming an album. Nobody "fell" for anything, people wanted to participate because the challenge supplied was interesting.

Besides, even if it is embarrassing it's still a part of board culture. Further, even if it was so embarrassing that there was an overwhelming push to get the sticky changed, the chances of that happening at extremely slim because the sticky was next to fucking impossible to convince the mods to make in the first place, it's not likely they'd consider swapping out the image in the sticky because some people are vocally embarrassed by one of the albums featured.

If you played Death Grips for people who actually have good musical taste, and told them "this is what people who claim to have good taste on the internet think is top tier music," they literally wouldn't believe you

Zach actually did play in nu-metal bands like System of a Down.

>this lack of self-awareness even when talking about a lack of self-awareness
