Yeah I know 3 years old but I'm gonna say anyways: I bet when he's at home, and he's decompressing, he'll rant and rave to himself and while he's at it he checks to see if he can make a song out of it.

Dae Bae that was a terrible suggestion. You'd have been better off giving us your own definition of it and giving examples because what I found was basically like nails on chalkboard, chewing with your mouth open, sex sounds coming feom the mouth. Yuck. This is the definition and I'm sure there are more pleasant examples than what the top youtube videos suggest to you when you search ASMR. Autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR) is a term used for an experience characterized by a static-like or tingling sensation on the skin that typically begins on the scalp and moves down the back of the neck and upper spine. It has been compared with auditory-tactile synesthesia.

But the top results are really not that pleasant (give them a listen)... your comment about teenagers who can't get pornhub- too funny! Sorry if my original reply came off as abrasive. Sometimes its just better to give a simplified answer, especially on the interwebz where any statement can be misconstrued and taken differently than intended. Best wishes to you.

As a fan of this band in my youth/young adulthood...I never knew what ATWA was an acronym for, (could have been initials in someone's name--I remember thinking that)... nor did I know it had anything to do w CM. I'm one of those people who lets the art mean to me what it means to me personally rather than finding out details, "meanings" of songs, etc. It was always one of my favourites on that album because it resonated w me in terms of emotional turmoil and heartbreak.

Serj has the most soothing and relaxing voice. ❤️

it's cool to see 4 people with differing opinions play in a band together and write music and play it for people. being civil is important
