We are back to present you our opinions of 2021, including two new contributors who started at the end of the year! I think it’s pretty easy to see where everyone intersected, to an extent. Dave got a new chromebook, so publishing will be easier compared to 2021. We didn’t save this article to post on New Year’s Eve as usual, so we did this based on memory and may have made mistakes unintentionally. There’s potential mistakes Dave may have made, but this was done between 12-15 hours of two days so cut us some slack! We will definitely be pumping out more material especially from the new kids on the block Fred and Devan! If you have any suggestions for edits, releases we missed or god forbid we add any more categories email us or find us on social media. Thanks for everyone’s support keeping TMR alive!

POSITIVE TRENDS OF 2021:

• More bands releasing music from 2020. There’s a huge influx of releases and not only have some bands been able to get ahead last year and release music for 2021, they also used this year for something next year. Inferi dropped an EP last year and full length this year.
• Shows are back!…..temporarily, here and there. They are popping up and slowly coming back, sooner than later.
• Bands are releasing more music in even smaller forms. I (Dave) personally think this is a good move to get 4-5 songs in an EP out every 6 months in short spurts. People have short attention spans now and can digest 4-5 songs quicker than 14. Put out something in the beginning and end of the year, and there’s your 10-14 songs.
• Curb Your Enthusiasm Season 11.

NEGATIVE TRENDS OF 2021:

• Nickleback still exsits.
• So much shit starters to stay relevant…..shut up MGK….shutup Corey Taylor….Rob Flynn……so many people that don’t know to stop talking.
• Trevor Moore died.
• 2020 happened.
• 2020 happened again again.
• 2020 just keeps fucking happening.
• Please just wipe us all off this planet or let a revolution begin soon please.
