Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Isn't that a bit late? I'm 36 and ICP seemed like a thing for the age bracket above me growing up. Or did the whole magnets meme push their demo to a lower age bracket or something?
some artists pick up new fans with every generation. see also: michael jackson, the beatles, ozzy, hendrix, slayer, etc.
it's kind of hilarious to me, being a 80s/90s kid, that of all the acts that were HUGE in the 90s (collective soul, smashing pumpkins, alanis morrisete, REM, etc), ICP is one of the few still in the news
I mean, as a GenXer it kinda makes sense to me that the biggest GenX bands are not about trying to stay in headlines. 🤷♂️
Smashing Pumpkins is back, and banks like RHCP and Radiohead just never stopped making (at least decent, some great) new records.
But yeah if the drugs didn’t get them, the attitudes to it a lot of spotlight from those bands.
However, The number of teens wearing Nirvana clothes recently has been fun to see. And being told I wouldn’t understand why a teen would like their songs is fucking hilariously (as I was a young teen when they came out). I wonder how long it’s going to last though.
