Can we bring this sub back? Can we bring this sub back?

I think this sub is a good idea, just needs some love. What do you think we need to do to get this sub back together?

I can automate the album of the month discussion. We can create a Google Sheet/Survey thing that people can submit albums to and look at what has already been added. Then I can make a bot that chooses an album randomly out of the list and creates the monthly discussion.

This sub also had general posts and discussion outside of the monthly album discussion. How do we make those interesting and different than a sub like r/Music or r/listentothis?

Hey guys!

So, since the release of Relient K's Air For Free, this sub has kind of been put on the backburner due to high activity on r/relientk. We've been really excited about that album, and so this sub has kind of gotten pushed aside.

Well, in the immortal words of B. Rodriguez

On to the announcements!

We've discussed a few new rules (nothing drastic) to implement to make the sub run smoother.

  1. We've decided to put a time limit on artist requests for AOTM. In our last request thread, we had Paramore, TOP, Brand New and other artists requested multiple times. So from this point forward artists can be requested once every 3 months. This will give us time to actually listen to and discuss their albums. We will make a separate thread for voting for said artists album.

  2. Once we have the official lyrics for AFF, we will be hosting the discussion on this sub, rather than r/relientk. This is so we can introduce the album to others, and so we don't skip albums in our official discussions on r/relientk.

  3. From this point forward, we'll be having an official track of the week discussion. We'll pick one of your tracks that you post (they'll be randomly posted) so we can get more participation in those threads.

And that's it! Painless, huh?

See you guys in the next request thread!

Lyrics:

Hold on, wait, I think I’ll Be there in a moment You look like you Were already sleeping Dreaming or dying Well, I can't tell the difference These days, those days All of your beginnings They become your endings

So now God is somewhere Waiting on His children Smiling, laughing Delivering your raindrops Devil, you fell And fire in your hubris Humans, we think We can overgrow you But not until I find you

So I walk through cities Hoping that I'll find you Sleeping, creeping So that I may kill you People, places I don't know your names yet But I'm walking always Looking for an exit Tell me when you find it

So please hear me when I Tell you all how much I Love you and I need you And I want to see you living You ask all sin Tell us what you mean now Nothing, I say I just want to feel good Tell me when you feel good

But we're still trying I reach out for you And a bolt of lightning I want to hold you But this world is so inviting I want to keep you But you are not everlasting I want to go outside And take my people dancing I want to go outside And take my evil dancing I think we went outside And took our evil dancing And now there's nothing left But laughing And now there's nothing left But laughing And now there's nothing left
