Benn Beckman's Alt Divorced "Dad Rock" Playlist

Some thoughts before I go hard into carving out Sapsorrow.

Modern au Benn Beckman has a playlist the other guys always give him shit for, but he loves it.

When he's driving, that playlist is the only thing he allows over the radio. Shanks would rather be listening to literally anything else, but will tell the other guys to: "Pack it in! The big man's got some feelings he's gotta get out!"

Shanks secretly loves the playlist, especially the Red Hot Chili Peppers & Nickleback, but would never admit it.

Here is the playlist so far (that I've already forced upon @sordidmusings, @since-im-already-here & @feral-artistry)

If you have thoughts on what more to add, clue me in! I love making playlists, and this one was really fun to make.

[vlasdygoth]

picked this up at the thrift store the other day do you think it's any good

[ohposhers]

i have come to ask if u have any other music recomendations, chemlab and orgy are slay aa fuck

anon i ALWAYS have music recs, thank you so much for humoring me i love sharing music with people !!!!!!!!! These 3 aren't nearly as niche as chemlab and orgy BUT I rarely find people who listen to them so i will recommend Type O Negative, Skinny Puppy and Genitorturers!! (I included some songs from each that are some of my favorites awooga) I tried to pick bands that are somewhat similar to CL and Orgy, aside from Type O Negative which is more gothic metal than industrial but I'm gonna make you listen to them anyway >:^]

[aprillikesthings]

spotify. this is a lie. I listen to live music from literally no later than 1968, because it's for a fic that takes place in 1966 and 1967. what are you oN.

wtf spotify

"you spend your weekends stressed and sleep deprived and procrastinating; you deal by listening to some lo-fi" I mean I knew that but like, c'mon

[catboymoments]

Hyacinth is low key alt like his dad imo. No one expects it from them but they both have heavy metal and punk rock in their respective playlists.

REAL AS FUCK. this is him

[earthtooz]

I NEED ITOSHI RIN BF HEADCANONS, I BEG YOU 😭

·˚ ༘ ITOSHI RIN BF HEADCANONS !

# warnings: gn!reader, fluff and a little hurt/comfort, mentions to arguments, somewhat suggestive but no nsfw, swearing, idk how many words this is but quite a bit LOL, unedited

# a/n: LUCKY FOR BOTH OF US THAT I JUST SO HAPPENED TO WANT ITOSHI RIN BF HEADCANONS TOO. ENJOY MY FRIEND.

no one knows how you two got into a relationship and to be honest, you don't really know either. like how did you bag itoshi mf rin 😨 the most unlikeable bitch anyone will ever meet in their life... (lovingly)

bachira asked you if you were okay the first time you met and rin immediately lunged at him. like, please stop babe, you're just proving meguru's point !

how you met and all is a story for another time <3 because holy fucking shit is it a long one.

but the point is, although rin takes a while to open up, he is an amazing boyfriend, despite what everyone believes :,)

claims that he needs an independent partner bc he needs his space from time to time and you were completely understanding, even agreeing that some privacy here and there is nice.

except as it turns out, rin is the most co-dependent partner there is 💀 it's no longer 'i' bc it is now 'we'! slay!

he literally needs you to go to the grocery store with him and expects you hold his hand the entire time too- literally.

─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───

"you know how to buy your own green tea, why do i need to come with you?" you ask when rin pops his head into your study room where you were reading your book. "please?"

─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───

you accompany him (almost) every time. if you're out he even waits for you to get home just so you can go with him like boy wtf...

well his love language is quality time saur.

expresses his love through gifts and acts of service as well. all of the gifts he buys for you are genuinely so well thought-out, like you almost tear up at all of them. one of them was a teddy bear that said 'you're better than mediocre.' and you almost cried 🗣🗣 okay but fr, he got you an anniversary gift of all his favourite moments with you, adding spotify bar codes to the pictures. there were photos from before u even dated like rin 😭😭😭😭 he is so babygirl pls take care of him.

on that note, i headcanon that rin has decent music taste. he listens to rock and alt, even anime soundtracks 🤣 but bc he's fluent in english, i bet he listens to arctic monkeys and the neighbourhood on REPEAT 🔁

wait yeah lover of music, it just makes sense for him to have a collection of headphones in his room. he likes to make you playlists too :( rinnie :( for me???

(rin also has a love language of offering you the first bite of food. you're sharing ice cream? here, have the first spoon. wanna try some of rin's lunch? he's already offering it. the smoothie he's having sounds good? he's already pushing it towards you.)

ALSO ☝️ BC THIS FUCKER LOVES HORROR, IT'S SOMETIMES TO A POINT THAT IT GETS YOU KINDA SCARED FOR YOUR LIFE... HOW IS HE SO IMMUNE TO ALL THE BLOOD... AND VIOLENCE...

he's SICK for this. you never let him pick the movies whenever you want to watch something.

also like it's a good enough reason to not get on his bad side. mans probably has 100 ways to k*ll shidou and get away with it.

anyways, rin would probably be hesitant to let you meet his family (read: sae). he's not ashamed of you, he's ashamed of sae.

so when his family demands to meet you, rin finally caves, agreeing to a dinner back home. only to find out he had nothing to worry about. his mother and father love you, saying how you were so beautiful the whole dinner, and how lucky rin was to have you. they even brought up the topic of marriage and you and rin kinda just sat there like 😐😁 smile and wave... smile and wave...

internally though, rin was over the moon knowing that you're accepted by his family. he loves his mum and dad, and although his relationship with sae is rocky with no smooth waves in sight, his opinion is... 'appreciated'.

best part was that his mother then turned to sae and went 'when are you going to get a partner as well?' and rin SENT HIM THE MOST SHIT-EATING GRIN EVER LMFAOOOOOOO

they got into a fight whilst cleaning the dishes that night.

rin then takes u home and pampers u, still high from the happiness that seeing u with his family brought 😇

WAIT ALSO - YOU TWO DEFINITELY SHOWED UP TO THE DINNER WITH MATCHING FITS >:o

HAVE YOU SEEN THIS MAN'S WARDROBE LIKE DAMN SHAWTY... LET ME HIT... so he'll 100% shop for you too.

in fact, he's the best boyfie to take shopping, he'll be like 'no that's not your colour, but the fit is nice' or be like 'you might need a different size. this one isn't right' - you trust his judgment way more than your friends.

when you are out with your friends shopping, you'll send rin photos for his opinions and he never misses 💯 drops whatever he's doing to respond bc he's gotta make sure his pretty lover has the best wardrobe!!

rin loves paying for your shopping sprees too. no matter how much you try to wrestle him for who pays, he will always win. you make it even though by paying for your meals that day (the difference in how much money is spent on clothes and food will never compare, but it makes you feel a little less guilty so rin indulges you).

also attentive af. knows your tastes in almost everything, memorised your little habits and how you like certain things done. very dedicated bf once you realise just how much he loves doing things for you.

i just had this thought:

you know how couples post on tiktok all the time? well, you thought it would be nice if you could participate in one trend with rin.

you just thought it'd be a small post to share with your friends but instead, you seemed to forget to turn on the 'only friends can view option', it blew the FUCK up - like ofc it would, that's itoshi mf rin... but the comments were all like 'why are you with him', or 'dump him... you're too hot for him...', or 'you can do sooo much better than him'.

look, no matter how sensible rin is, he's not immune to drama and this bitch will not settle for when people tell him he doesn't deserve you like did YOU GO THROUGH TWO YEARS OF PINING??? I DON'T THINK SO. SIT THE FUCK DOWN.

so he's on your account, picks the comment 'i could treat you better than him', films himself giving the commenter the middle finger before you pull him in by the collar to give him a big ol kiss, cutting the video at the exact time that you both stumble out of frame.

look, it's not the most optimal way to fight back against the haters 🙄 but he doesn't need to prove nothing, not like anyone else gets you all to themselves.

oh this man has a banger social media presence, on his main AND on his private accounts.

he prefers posting on the priv bc there he can freely show u off and be more authentic.

itoshirinpriv I love when Y/n wears the things I buy them

─ megurusundercover when will u buy me things rinnie </3

╰┈➤ itoshirinpriv Choke and die

╰┈➤ megurusundercover kinky ;)

─ isagi11 Hi @y/n !

╰┈➤ y/n HI YOICHI !!!!

LOVES A SUPPORTIVE S/O, EVEN IF HE DOESN'T LET IT SHOW!!! WEAR HIS JERSEY AT A MATCH AND CHEER FOR HIM AND YOU HAVE HIS HEART !!! RECORD HIS MATCHES FOR HIM AND WATCH THEM WITH HIM AND HE'LL LOVE YOU FOREVER !!!!! he doesn't ask for much, just a little appreciation back :<

also don't try to compete against rin in anything unless you have guaranteed victory bc this mf is competitive AF.

will spare you on some occasions but more often than not, will give 100% into everything.

you use this to your advantage like 'hey babe, wanna see who can clean more of the house in one hour?' and HE TAKES IT SERIOUSLY EVERY TIME. to be fair, so do you because like you want a clean house, but rin is SO speedy when there's a challenge involved.

easy defeat every time but you can't be mad.

hc that rin can't cook for shit. so you'll have to be there with him or just ban him from the kitchen straight up.

you taught him how to make microwave popcorn and that's about the only thing he is permitted to make.

even his diet-regulated smoothies are all made by you because holy fuck he somehow always messes up the recipe despite it being really clear and concise.

also you steer clear from him when he's working out because he just looks TOO GOOD working out that i makes you feel a little funny and pathetic 😇

if you are someone who does enjoy exercise, rin would love to take this chance to spend some more time together. you could be doing a pilates workout and rin is in the corner lifting weights, glancing over to you ever so often, sending him winks when you catch him.

loves going on hikes with you, no matter the difficulty, how steep or flat, he just really likes being active and if you join him, he'll be SO happy.

also u know how he loves yoga and meditation? if hiit and sweat-inducing workouts aren't for you, he likes stretching with you and teaching you breathing exercises that help throughout the day.

100/10 MASSEUSE BTW !!!! 👍👍👍👍

ofc, relationships aren't always perfect and especially when dealing with rin, someone who has quite a fair bit of trauma from being abandoned and left behind, it only worsens the tension.

believes you're going to leave him every time </3 like no :( just bc you're mad at him doesn't mean you've stopped loving him.

communication is so important. rin has a tendency to catastrophize a lot so please, put your pride aside and talk to him! reassure him! spend some time with him! that's how post-arguments usually go.

then you'll talk it out calmly, expressing both of your perspectives, apologising for breaking boundaries and trying to adapt accordingly.

this routine is a delicate one and it took months of putting aside your immaturity in order to grow together. especially rin who is so full of pride, but when he realised that his stubbornness wasn't winning him anything, he shattered his hardened perception of self and let you in.

"rin?" you whisper, poking your head into your shared bedroom delicately, afraid to upset the beast sleeping in there even more.

"what," he snaps, sitting on his side of bed in a hunched over position. he hugs his legs close to his body and the sight breaks your heart a little.

"i'm watching 'the shining', you can join me if you'd like to."

he grumbles something inaudible before you close the door quietly, hoping he'd cave because you chose this movie just so he'd come around. it's his favourite after all.

setting out a bowl of popcorn and some beverages of choice, you just manage to get the movie up when rin emerges from the bedroom, all gloomy and moody. he plops down on the opposite side of the couch, chin on his hand.

he's pretending like you don't exist which is fine by you, you know he'll cave eventually. so, you slide a cup of water and the bowl of popcorn to him and settle in, pressing 'play'.

around 15 minutes in or so, you're too engrossed in the movie to hear rin's quiet shuffling, and how he's now crossed the distance to sit next to you. his hand comes up to your shoulder to get your attention and when he has it, rin's quick to manoeuvre you so that you were now lying down on the couch.

he then plops down, wrapping his arms around you and resting his head on your chest.

"i'm sorry," whispers the striker. such simple words with such heavy meaning, especially coming from him.

you know he wants to say more, but you know better than he can't get it out, so, you begin threading your fingers through his hair, just how he likes it. rin softens completely against you.

"it's okay," you reassure.

"you're too good for me."

the next morning there's a bouquet of flowers and dessert from your favourite bakery on the kitchen counter.

rin wakes up at a reasonable hour. he likes to start off his days between 8 to 9 am, with 9-10 hours of sleep.

your sleep cycle has been synced with his because he hates sleeping without you beside him.

unless you have a good reason to push back sleep, he will not stand for it. stop depriving yourself of sleep and give your body the rest it deserves!!!!!

has a set night routine with you.

also i'm sorry but rin loves making out + neck and hand kisses are his favourite to give to you + he loves receiving temple and lip kisses.

goes to parties and clubs but very reluctantly. he doesn't like to drink, especially during soccer season, so there's not a lot of joy he can find in going out, except when he gets to eye you up and down all night and have fun with you AYEEEE 🕺😩

'you can wear whatever u want, i can fight' bf.

one thing you learn abt this man overtime is that he truly does not care how you dress. even tho it seems like he's judging you, he loves everything you wear and will admire you appreciatively 24/7.

I’ve been seeing a few folks complain about people writing hcs of DC characters with ooc song preferences, which it’s not that serious. But it gives me an excuse to show off my DC character playlists.

I initially created them as I saw a lot of playlists for Bruce & Jason with just a lot of dad rock.

Which, fair. Not everyone’s into metal.

But since I know it’s not an easy genre to get into, if you want inspiration, feel free to check out these playlists!

My one main rule for making playlists is that a majority, if not all, of the songs need to be in a genre I think the character would listen to based on their canon music taste. This is regardless whether or not it’s a genre I like. I try my best to find fun songs regardless of my personal preference.

The Playlists:

Batman: various genres of metal. I tried to go for more Doom Metal(slow & repetitive vs thrash’s blast beats and fast guitar) but there’s more than one genre of metal that’s characterized by slower instrumentals & I can’t keep up with all the names so it varies. Dad metal. Made sure that there was a sprinkle of Black Metal too (mainly bc I think it’s funny. If you’ve never listened to black metal, it sounds like you chucked the vocalist in a grinder at high speeds then proceeded to mix your instruments & your vocals the worst you could possibly make it. It’s nearly incomprehensible and it’s Perfect for Bruce.)

Bruce Wayne: a touch of old school doom metal, a sprinkle of black metal as you can write a Batman story without Bruce Wayne but not a Bruce Wayne story without Batman. A more chill version of the Batman playlist that I think Bruce would jam out to as not everyone’s into metal and I wanted to give people another option that didn’t have as heavy stuff in it.

Tim Drake: Mostly time accurate with 90s-2010’s punk rock & alt rock influences all the way through with a touch of metal to show his connection to Bruce & a few other off genre songs that represent his YJ98 pals. I tried my best to include as many bands as I could find that he canonically enjoyed as well.

Jason Todd: Jason was introduced in the 80s & is a canonical metalhead, so I think he’d listen to a combination of 80s dad metal, death metal (come on, it’s just too perfect of a genre name to pass up), thrash, & a little black metal (the genre I assigned to Batman).

Clark Kent: Dad metal. He canonically listens to Metallica post-crisis so I just gave him my dad’s taste in music lmao. Made sure to add a few satire ones because Clark is an little shit and would very much enjoy satire songs. Unfortunately, I genuinely could not get my Spotify recs to give me decent country music. I tried. It only gave me modern mainstream artists and after a month of trying to find good pre 2000’s country, I just gave up. So it’s mainly metal:(

If any of y’all want to send me 80s-2000’s country recs, that would be very kind of y’all. (the type of country music ma & pa kent would listen to that Clark would have grown up with)

Kon-El: is full of songs that are, well, time accurate to his original run. Ranging from 1969-2002 [the year his solo run was canceled], this playlist not only has songs he could have theoretically picked up in a record shop or blasted on a boom box during the day but is also full of bands he canonically listens to! This playlist is chalk full of Kon’s canonical alt rock & metal music taste as well as rock and proto-metal hits of the time!

Bart Allen: to be clear, Bart wouldn’t listen to any of these as music is just too slow for him. These are songs that relate to Bart or songs that represent his connections to his friends with no specific genre as I didn’t just want to have playlists full of nothing but metal. (Although I think he’d really like metal concerts as he’d probably enjoy the feeling of the heavy base resonate in his chest.)

[ermesskiss]

what music I think jjk adults would listen to

✧ ft: satoru, suguru, nanami, shoko, choso, higuruma, toji, sukuna, and kenjaku ✧ a/n: been thinking about this for a minute, and I decided to write out my opinions/hcs

jjk student version here + jjk character playlist works here

· · ───────────── 𖥸 ────────────── · ·

✦ gojo

➥ Gojo is a very laid-back and fun guy, so I think he would listen to music that has that same energy

➥ He kinda reminds me of those moms who listen to the overplayed songs on the radio and always sing them, I don’t know to explain it, but that's him

➥ I think that he gets his song recs from his students in a attempt to bond with them

songs

♪ Heaven To Me: Tyler, The Creator ♪ Chanel: Frank Ocean ♪ Died and Came Back: Lil Uzi Vert ♪ Pop Style: Drake ♪ Wake Up in the Sky: Gucci Mane ft. Bruno Mars

───────────────────────────────

✦ geto

➥ I think Geto listens to a little bit of everything, alternative, rock, rap, R&B,  and hip-hop. I can’t really picture him strictly listening to rock and alt. It doesn’t feel right

➥ As Geto got older, I think his music taste changed. He still likes everything, but he leaned towards one genre rather than several

➥ When Mimi and Nana show Geto their favorite music, he adds the one he likes to his own playlist, and vice versa

songs

♪ Sextape: Deftones ♪ Passion Fruit: Drake ♪ Rental: Brockhampton ♪ 3005: Childish Gambino ♪ Even Flow: Pearl Jam

───────────────────────────────

✦ shoko

➥ I think the music that she listens to is very mellow and relaxing but might have some sad undertone to it from time to time

➥ She gives me older music vibes from the 70s to the 90s. Like Fleetwood Mac, ABBA, and Sade. I can’t see her listening to newer music

➥ I think she listens to more female artists than men; it’s not intentional. She does enjoy songs from men, but it’s a pattern. I also think that Shoko is a big fan of The Cranberries; I am a soul believer in this

songs

♪ Sunday: The Cranberries ♪ Bette Davis Eyes: Kim Carnes ♪ Fade Into You: Mazzy Star ♪ Landslide: Fleetwood Mac ♪ So Far Away: Carole King

───────────────────────────────

✦ nanami

➥ Student Nanami was emo, so he definitely listened to My Chemical Romance

➥ He started listening to more rock when he grew out of his emo phase. He prefers light rock rather than heavy

➥ When he gets sick of music, he puts on a podcast about business/the economy, or world events OR OR audiobooks

songs

♪ Helena: My Chemical Romance ♪ I Miss You: blink-182 ♪ Dust in the Wind: Kansas ♪ Dancing In the Dark: Bruce Springsteen ♪ Rocket Man: Elton John

───────────────────────────────

✦ choso

➥ He’s giving off rock and metal vibes, also like sub-genres of those

➥ His go-to music is rock, but I definitely think he listens to other music, something like R&B and hip-hop

➥ Like the great sibling, he is, he always gives Yuji the aux and listens to his song recs

songs

♪ Granite: Sleep Token ♪ Generation Dead: Five Finger Death Punch ♪ Enter Sandman: Metallica ♪ Chop Suey!: System Of A Down ♪ War Inside My Head: Suicidal Tendencies

───────────────────────────────

✦ higuruma

➥ Similar to Shoko, I think he also listens to older music rather than newer stuff, but it’s not because he doesn’t enjoy new music; he is just too busy and stressed to figure out what artist he likes and just stays to what he knows

➥ He’s a big Radiohead fan, and maybe The Smiths, too? Music that's kind of sad and angst, yk?

➥ Genre-wise, I think he would like a little of everything if he could sit down and enjoy music.

songs

♪ Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Now: The Smiths ♪ Karama Police: Radiohead ♪ Wild Sex (In The Working Class): Oingo Boingo ♪ Eyes Without A Face: Billy Idol ♪ What’s Up?: 4 Non Blondes

───────────────────────────────

✦ toji

➥ Definitely listens to divorce dad music

➥ Drinks a nice cold beer while listening to Nickelback

➥ I think because Toji doesn't think highly of himself, I can see him listening to self-loathing music and music that relates to anger or internal turmoil

songs

♪ How You Remind Me: Nickelback ♪ Pancake Land: Element Eighty ♪ The Man Who Sold the World: Nirvana ♪ It’s Been Awhile: Stained ♪ Crawling: Linkin Park

───────────────────────────────

✦ sukuna

➥ So, at first, I was sure he would listen to heavy metal and rock because he has such an aggressive personality, but after I gave it some more thought canon, Sukuna would hate it. Music or noise that loud and obnoxious would annoy him.

➥ Acknowledging the fact that he was born in the Heian era and during that time, they listened to Gagaku (court music), which is either instrumental or vocal. It’s calming and relaxing in contrast to his persona

➥ Or he hates music altogether, idk; he's a grumpy old man. Everything pisses him off

songs

♪ Menace: Five Finger Death Punch ♪ Monster: Skillet ♪ Bullet With Butterfly Wings: The Smashing Pumpkins ♪ Push: Matchbox Twenty ♪ Geisha: Anthony Davilio

───────────────────────────────

✦ kenjaku

➥ Since he's over a thousand years old, imma say he has a very diverse taste of music and probably listens to a little bit of everything. If I were to choose what genre he likes most, I would say rock, both light and heavy

➥ Kenjaku enjoys listening to Marilyn Mason and Oingo Bingo. Marilyn Mason because he’s Marilyn Mason (derogatory) and Oingo Bingo because of their surrealist music, which I think Kenjaku would find them entertaining

➥ Listens to music that feeds into his delusions, motivating him to continue with his vision of the world he wants

songs

♪ Weird science: Oingo Boingo ♪ Aerials: System Of A Down ♪ Break My Stride: Matthew Wilder ♪ The Beautiful People: Marilyn Mason ♪ Everybody Wants To Rule The World: Tears For Fears

───────────────────────────────

✧ I currently have over 1.9k liked songs, so hopefully, there is enough diversity in songs and artists. i was going to do yuki, but it was stressing me out. Maybe in the future, I'll add hers. There is definitely more I wanted to add but my mind can only contain so many thoughts, unfortunately. ✧ Anyway, I want to hear other people's opinions and/or if people agree or disagree!!

The Ghost Boys as songs in my all time favorites playlist o(≧∇≦o)

Hesh- All I Wanted by Paramore (his character is so doomed it’s hard for me to even give his ass a happy song sometimes😭. this 00’s pop punk/rock reminds me of him heavyyy, and the whole meaning of this song TEARSSSS. the angst)

Logan- Brass Monkey by Beastie Boys (listennn lmfao, idk why but this makes so much sense. he’d definitely listen to Beastie Boys imo, he’s silly)

Elias- In Dreams by Roy Orbison (he would absolutelyyy know/like older 50s/60s music idc. this song is dear to me and he’s just my pookie)

Merrick- Separate Ways (Worlds Apart) by Journey (the 80s dad rock is perfect for him I’m afraid. this song is so nostalgic for me, and the fast paced beat of this reminds me of him)

Keegan- Pyretta Blaze by Type O Negative (goth Keegan save me. he’s so TON coded it hurts me. idk what it’s called but the descending type of riff in this song feels fitting)

Kick- True Faith by New Order (the synth pop/post punk/alt/new wave/that type shit is so perfect for him, he’d absolutely listen to New Order)

Rorke- Knockin’ On Heavens Door by Bob Dylan (the lyrics, I’m weeping. pre fed, pre brainwashing, the melancholy idk…beautiful song)

[problemduetest4life]

what time-period accurate songs do you think Jeremy listens to in TSC? I want to know ALL of your thoughts on this

OKAY I'VE BEEN COOKING THIS UP FOR A FEW DAYS NOW

Like a Bird by Bell Fury Ado ofc

jk jk that song and My Prerogative by Britney Spears are Jean songs ONLY

Okay let's get into this...

Could You Be Loved by Bob Marley and the Wailers (1980)

Jeremy is a beach boy at the end of the day. I know he can surf, I know he can in my heart. I also think Bob Marley's music hits for him because a lot of it is about peace, love, and justice. When he drives to school from his family's house this is the music he listens to fix the good vibes for the day.

Disappear by Beyonce (2008)

Jeremy is a secret sad music enjoyer. I think this is a drive home song for him.

The more I think about it The less that I was able to share with you I try to reach for you, I can almost feel you You're nearly here And then you disappear 

pre-jerejean y'all, I know you see it

Won't Go Home Without You by Maroon 5 (2007)

Look at the end of the day Jeremy is a white boy in the early 2000's and he is allowed to be basic! Imagine he's driving to his families house at the end of the day, where he doesn't want to be, and he's just had a painful talk with Jean and he's just belting "It's not over tonight, Just give me one more chance to make it right, I may not make it through the night, I won't go home without you" DO YOU SEE THE VISION!?!?!?

I saw your post about the alt-rock angst for bad days and I wholeheartedly agree. This is more pining and less "big sad".

BUT IF WE'RE GOING TO DO DAD ROCK THEN WE HAVE TO DO SOME DIVORCED DAD ROCK

Lips Of An Angel by Hinder

This is a joke but also-

MY GIRLS IN THE NEXT ROOM SOMETIMES I WISH SHE WAS YOUUUU

Pocket Full of Sunshine by Natasha Bedingfield (2007)

I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY! But when he's in a funk Cat plays this from the boombox and it always wins at least a smile out of him just because it's sooo dumb

His party music is Rihanna. Why? Because it's Rihanna. (Shut Up and Drive, Breaking Dishes & SOS to my specific) (2006&2007)

He also listens to Aaliyah because she's a queen. Like sexy Jeremy = Rock the Boat (2001). You heard it here first kids. Jeremy think's he's alone in the kitchen and is bussin it down and Jean walks in, has a whole 'nother sexuality crisis.

I truly imagine the Trojans going to bar that plays Ne-Yo, Sean Paul, Timbaland, Usher, Akon, T-Pain, Christina Aguilera, Jordin Sparks... I know they are menaces in the off-season. I promise you the student athletes with good reputations can be INSANE on the low

BUT FOR 90'S BOPS

I don't know why but I'm gravitating towards No Doubt. Spiderwebs and I'm Just A Girl. I can see him having a baby sitter who would listen to it and he would always want to listen to it as a kid and his parents were like "omg he must have a crush on her so cuteeee" but really he's just gay and has taste.

I think Jeremy would also be like the type of person to still be softly singing along to the music while being stressed out. Like he's texting about something important but under his breath he's like "get it calculated, do the math, made a thousand songs that make ya move ya ass"

I know the Trojan's lockerroom and lift playlists are deadly too

[bitter-sw33t-colors]

my personal little headcanon of what they would listen to ! (my favorites included)

|~~~|

characters included: Mina Ashido, Ochaco Uraraka, Kyoka Jiro, Katsuki Bakugo, Fumikage Tokoyami, Himiko Toga, Rumi Usagiyama (Mirko), Touya Todoroki (Dabi), Keigo Takami (Hawks)

|~~~|

MINA ASHIDO

definitely imagine her listening to like... hot girl party music yk??? like she gives me 2010s Kesha vibes for sure. I think I could also def imagine her listening to like Doja Cat or Ayesha Erotica. i feel like she'd have a mix of different music and 10,000 playlists that she swears she listens to (she only searches a song and listens to the radio for it) for each mood she feels. it's either super hype ready to party or depressing ready to bawl your eyes out on her shoulder.

OCHACO URARAKA

Taylor Swift. 120% a swiftie you cannot change my mind. knows every. single. song. (same) and WILL force you to listen to her with her. want to get hyped up? lets listen to reputation. feeling upset? ok lemme turn on folklore. she's THAT person, and idrk if she'd listen to any others because like... i can ONLY imagine Taylor...

KYOKA JIRO

we all know already, alt 90s to 2010s shit. WILL ask you to name 5 Nirvana songs and WILL get mad when you can't. i feel like she'd also listen to Evanescence idk why. she's very serious about this and if you call her emo for it she might just MIGHT have to teach u a little lesson (forcing you to listen to her music with her until you like it). overall 20/10 music taste, would listen to music with her, would name 5 songs for her!

KATSUKI BAKUGO

omg. dad. rock. Metallica? he has the record, duh????? why wouldnt he????? Nickelback? uhm got that one too. Bon Jovi? already there. long story short he has fire music taste. i cant imagine him listening to like rap and stuff idk why that might just be me. but i've always imagined him to listen to at the very least 80s & 90s rock.

FUMIKAGE TOKOYAMI

Twenty One Pilots. Panic! At The Disco.. and don't hate on me but like xxxtentacion. but not his really upbeat and hype music definitely his slower songs. like i feel like his music taste ranges but no where near as much as Mina. he has a very select taste but is open to listen to others genres (unlike Bakugo).

HIMIKO TOGA

Melanie Martinez. i KNOW she listens to her, especially Mad Hatter. i think toga is definitely very open to any music, as long as she likes it she doesnt care. i kind of get a Hyperpop kind of feeling for her. but idrk. if you gave her a music recommendation and she liked you, i think it'd be the only thing she listened to until she knew the artists every single song and every single lyric.

RUMI USAGIYAMA (MIRKO)

idk y i get very... like hype Bruno Mars. like 24k Magic typa vibe. but i also get a very rap type vibe from her. like i cant really explain it. like if she listens to rap it wont be no slow shit she is listening to the most upbeat and fast sound she can find and will sit there and listen to it like its fuckin classical music and tap her foot on the floor very gently like its a nice little tune.

TOUYA TODOROKI (DABI)

same for him, im not quite sure. cause like i feel like it wouldnt be completely alternative but it wouldnt be anything like pop either. i think when hes alone he listens to Adele ngl. but as for when he's with people? he just simply doesnt listen to music. i think i could imagine him listening to some Mother Mother songs or possibly The Cranberries lol.

KEIGO TAKAMI (HAWKS)

erm. its like a mix of Bruno Mars, but not hype Bruno like Mirko, sad Bruno like Grenade and like if there was a mix of Cigarettes After Sex and Hozier. i've always gotten that vibe from him weirdly enough. again, i dont think hes super open with music recommendations unless he liked you and you specifically told him it'd make you happy if he gave it a try.

if i made spelling & grammatical errors.... oh well!

[bredforloyalty]

hey!! do u have any recommendations for hungarian artists / bands?

hohoho do i...!!!! (if you're hungarian and just asking in english out of like courtesy towards everyone else then sorry i assumed you weren't<3 the answers would only be slightly different)

i come bearing gifts playlists you didn't exactly ask for but i'll just go through my favorites first ok? alright🩷👍

necessary start: 30y, kispál és a borz / kiscsillag, vad fruttik → established alt bands more or less, ""dad rock"" (first two) and mom rock (last one) for me bc this is pretty much what i grew up listening to so even though it's the lyrics that matter to me here i can't leave them out.. !! + if you're wondering what's up with the slash it's just that kispál disbanded and the second formation was kiscsillag but now they're kispál again as of 2023? so it's the same band basically not exactly but umm.yeah

and the other, more current recs from Me to You:

fiúk → call themselves "underground pop" but alt/indie rock and kind of funk rock and a bit of r&b. concerts so so good you can find me at those going crazy going stupid tbh

elefánt → alt/indie rock, i fully came around to them recently don't have much else to say Good

artur → tiny alt or maybe art rock band i mean by my standards because 53 monthly listeners. love it my cup of tea i wish they did some kind of gig around here

analog balaton → electronic . something ! could be called pop but you'll hear (if you want), i think the whole album is great. next one is SUPPOSED to come out within days

co lee → hip-hop (ish)

beton.hofi → hip-hop (ish). again not much to say about these two i like their lyrics, wit, style, flow etc

and i whipped these up, don't be intimidated by the length they're not meant for listening from beginning to end and it's just optional, like if you didn't want to pick random songs on your own (i know some people like doing that a lot though i get it) ok good luck..

[eumeliafeu]

I'm gonna say it.

Clarisse is alt. She dresses in alt clothing. Leather jackets are a common sight, so are dark jeans with chains hanging from it. Band tees? Of course! Not to mention, she listens to a lot, and I mean a lot of divorced dad rock and early 2000s emo music(for a sample size based on my own favorites, my Ares cabin playlist is a good idea for what she would listen to from my perspective). Does she do her makeup? Only dark brown eyeshadow that's only kind of visible and the tiniest bit of eyeliner(she doesn't admit to wearing makeup, she says it's how she naturally looks).

That's it. That's how I think Clarisse would dress when she goes to college and on the off chance she gets to get out of camp before then(yes, even on her quest in SOM. Idc what Rick says, he can pry Clarisse out of my cold dead hands).

Speaking of, here's my playlist :)

She definitely plays this when she forces her little brothers to clean for cabin inspection. (Also she totally haa a crush on Victoria De Angelis bc I said so.)

Modern AU Music Preferences

- Hiccup: indie, folk music, alt rock, and pop rock. Probably likes Imagine Dragons 😉 - Astrid: only listens to music for studying and exercising. Will literally just put on whatever playlist is appropriate to the situation according to Youtube or Spotify. People ask her what music she listens to, and she's like "whatever the situation requires." - Fishlegs: Likes jazz and classical like a goddamn nerd. Probably very into music theory. - Snotlout: Loves anything 80s and 90s. Metal, rap, pop, anything. Guilty pleasures are Madonna and any 90s boyband. Don't tell anyone he likes Hanson or he'll kill you. Well, he'll try anyway. - Ruff and Tuff: Really into punk, industrial, and rap rock. - Dagur: Into metal, especially heavy metal and nu metal. His music tastes overlap with the twins' occasionally and they go to concerts together. Always in the mosh pit. - Heather: Emo, alt rock, post-punk, and goth. She and Hiccup like a lot of the same early 00s bands. - Gobber: Country music and sea shanties. - Stoick: likes Dad Music. You know, Neil Diamond, Billy Joel, etc. - Valka: It's not one specific genre, but don't know how to describe it other than hippie music? Like Heather Dale, Stevie Nicks, Kate Bush, Celtic Woman, Blackmore's Night, etc.
