      Most bands do not have an equivalent to Lateralus fans, though a handful do. Being too fixated on peyote trips (or the like) is definitely common, but talking about how the timestamps of drum fills relates to alchemy or some other deliberately esoteric subject as a nebulous metaphor for . . . self-improvement? is definitely not something you’d find among whatever losers listen to Imagine Dragons.

        Imagine Dragons and their fans are infinitely more reactionary and insufferable than acid smashed hippies talking about shared consciousness

          imagine dragons fans are passive. they just listen to the music and care about how it makes em feel

          tool fans are far from passive. they need to tell you why tool is good and maynard is a genius. how danny is the best drummer playing the most complex beats ever. this makes them annoying.

          i should know, i am a tool fan

            Not my experience. I had a gamer zoomer cousin who was obsessed with imagine dragons and would take over the car radio and play exclusively leagueoflegends-core and get really annoyed at anything else and call it boomer music if it had guitars
