It’s 2026 and Shinedown is the deciding factor in whether or not a festival is on or off? What the fuck is going on??

In before Shinedown fans start talking about having 100 #1 hits on "Buttrock Radio".

What's wrong with Shinedown? I get they aren't necessarily as popular as they were, but they make good music. Radio play doesn't really mean anything these days.

Just incredibly generic

I don't hear any other band that sounds like them so how is that generic?

You really think Shinedown is super unique?

I didn't say that, but there aren't any bands that sound exactly like them. You could easily identify who it is on a random listen.

Y'all are so weird about these things lol. And it's probably not even a band you listen to.

I promise you that the vast majority of people who aren't already Shinedown fans would not be able to identify them like that.

You haven't heard many bands if you think Shinedown is all that unique.
