My @ on here is a line from a Meat Puppets song. My pfp is the cover of a NoMeansNo album. When I was a teenager I thought it was really cool there was a Snowing song that mentioned listening to At The Drive-In. I would show kids in class Lil Ugly Mane and secretly feel smug knowing they were enjoying a song made by a black metal noise guy. If you're lacking in insight and perspective, completely uncharismatic, or just don't know what to say, bringing up shit people like is a good way to trick them into thinking you're worth talking to.

I went to a small party with like ~cool people~ where no one had the confidence to take control of the music for fear they’d be judged as not cool so someone ~ironically~ put on the high school musical soundtrack. For like an hour. What are we doing folks we’ve lost the plot just put on a nice playlist of songs you like and want to share with your friends. The mortifying ordeal of being known or whatnot.

I was getting off the train and this guy noticed my Van Halen sleeveless tee and was like “cool tank top dude I love Van Halen.” And I was like “thanks man.” And then he was like “do you like Extreme?” (he was wearing a shirt from a band called Extreme). And I said “I’m not too familiar with their music.” And he was like “dude you gotta go listen to their new album, it’s SICK.” And I said “thanks for the rec man” and we fist bumped and it was wholesome. Anyways I got home and listened to Extreme and it wasn’t really my thing.

I went with the criterion “has continually listened since discovering it” and yeah, a few are searingly uncool, but they’ve been a consistent presence in my life. Some of these are new loves, others are going on 20 years of regular airtime 🙀

It's impossible to actually do, but trying to will make you behave in a way that'll be much easier to look back on

It's always dope when a group only has two members. It's more common and a bit less remarkable in typically electronically produced genres, but when it's a more conventional rock band it's fucking dope. Hella, Death From Above 1979, it's fucking sick.

In the canon of great mindnumbingly repetitive songs where the title is the only lyric alongside "Free Speech For The Dumb" by Discharge and "Around The World" by Daft Punk, this one is the best because he ends each repetition with a twisted Joker laugh >:)
