Got anything that sounds like a cross between early Disturbed and Kid Rock’s Devil without a cause?

'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the forums
Not a poster was stirring, not even a Thatcher Venmo;
The posts were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Appleyard soon would be there;
The HiveMind were nestled all snug in their beds;
While visions of Giroux and Ghost danced in their heads;
And BernieParent in his goalie mask, and MSE in his ten gallon hat,
Had just settled our Starat Jr. and GapToothWanderer Jr. for a long winter's nap,
When out on the HF Boards there arose such a chatter,
BigToe sprang from his bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the PC he flew like The Flash,
Clicked open the browser and his mouse he mashed.
The Cap'n Dave stood on the beast of the hockey guy glow,
Gave a lustre of hope to HF Flyers below,
When what to Toe's wondering eyes did appear,
But a miniature supercomputer and eight advanced hockey metricians,
With a young driver so smart and quick,
Toe knew in a moment he must be St. Appleyard.
More rapid than autoclick his mouse cursor came,
And Applyard whistled, and shouted, and cheered them by name:
"Now, Jojo! now, Magua! now FLYguy and DancingPanther!
On, pit! on, LegionOfDoom91! on, kudymen and KermitTheProg!
To the top of the forum! to the top of HF Flyers!
Now post away! meme away! keyboard noise away all!"
As likes that after the rush of posts fly,
When they meet with an Anti HiveMinder, meme'd to the sky;
So up to the top of the total like records they flew
With the supercomputer full of stats, and St. Appleyard too—
And then, in a twinkling, Toe heard on the roof
The calculating and number crunching of each little click.
As Toe drew in his head, and was turning around,
Down the forums St. Appleyard came with a bound.
He was dressed all in plad, from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all filled with formulas and stats;
A bundle of scouting reports he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a smart guy just opening his pack.
His eyes—how they twinkled! his dimples, how merry!
His cheeks were like roses, his nose like a berry!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a bow,
And the beard on his chin was as white as the snow;
The stump of a pen he held tight in his teeth,
And all the stats, it encircled his head like a wreath;
He had a slender face and a little taut belly
That shook when he laughed, like a Snorlax made of jelly.
He was tall and thin, a right jolly old nerd,
And Toe laughed when he saw him, in spite of himself;
A wink of his eye and a twist of his head
Soon gave Toe to know he had nothing to dread;
Appleyard spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the prospect reports; then turned with a jerk,
And laying his pen aside of his ear,
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose;
He sprang to his supercomputer, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, ere he drove out of sight—
“Happy Christmas to HF Flyers and SurroundedByAhos, and to all a good night!”
Merry Christmas ladies and gents! We survived another year of this accursed franchise. Hope y'all have lots of laughter and fun with your loved ones creating special memories.

@JojoTheWhale I'll be curious to know if you find anything you like from all the suggestions or from following links off of them.

My favorite prog album. Only irritant is the singer’s thick foreign accent in attempting to sing in English but otherwise, the music is outstanding.
I’ve been to Italy a few times and somehow, while driving around, this song of theirs has always found me. It’s not in the same style as the above album, but their sense of melody and execution are exquisite.
I’d be curious about your feedback. Also, kudos on your open mindedness toward welcoming new music — I took “new” to mean what may be new to you as opposed to simply recently released tracks.

I can pretty much guarantee I will since I listen to some of everything. I've only gotten to one so far, but I'm adding them all to a giant Tidal playlist and letting it rip. I'm just busy with family stuff for the next couple of days. We also have a recovering friend over for the holidays since the dipshit laid his bike down doing 85 leaving our house, so it's more busy than usual.
So far I've only gotten to the first suggestion of "The Raven That Refused To Sing" from @Kermit the Prog and it's nutty in a good way. The album went right onto the "I need to pull my head out of my ass" work playlist.

All the “real taxi” encounters I’ve seen online don’t even ever contemplate this kind of outcome. Color me perplexed.

I haven't heard much of it at all, but I haven't heard anything by them that I didn't like. I would be pretty into them if I still listened to much music, the same way I was into Velocity Girl in days of yore.

It was. She loves doing random swipe keyboard stuff. She sends gibberish manifestos to family members.

Oh, thought you were much more into them. Just learned they had a new release the other day. Listening now. It's surprisingly noisy in parts. "Pomeranian Spinster" rocks

Honestly, this looks like a legitimate posting from a Turkish guy simping on a girl named Katherine Harrington who is in the same Facebook group as him.
Not that your child is a Turkish guy...
