Much like how I feel about Nirvana… the music isn’t exactly awful or anything and they have some very catchy hooks but just mostly leaves me feeling meh at the end of it.

No offence, but you sir, are the antichrist.

How do you sleep at night?

Why yes I am. As for sleeping, between the baby and my husband snoring, not the best, but not too bad.

I do too. I even sing along with it.

I get both of those more than John Cougar Mellencamp.

My freshman year roommate had his greatest hits on repeat. Googoo Dolls too.

Much rage.

The Springsteen fans I know mostly praise his epic, 3-4 hour long live shows. I really enjoy “The Ghost of Tom Joad” album but his rock leaves me cold.

Billy Joel… eh. All I’ll say is that when I worked the door at Kmart in high school, and “Piano Man” came on the overhead, even the grumpiest customer would walk in and smile and start humming along.

That album single handed blew my brain hole, and is what sent me down the musical path I went. I don’t even need to listen to it any more, I swear to FSM it is just a part of me. Even though I always skip Psalm.

Resolution though man, fucking hell.

I’m not sure if this will be unpopular popular or popular unpopular but it looks and sounds interesting (for all meanings of interesting)

next week will be the album release party : )

See, that’s what I keep hearing from those who love it. I feel like I’m missing out! Is there any music you’d recommend for helping me— what’s the word —I don’t know, be more permeable, more recipient to that album?

Give Blue Trane a try. You may like it, you may not. And regardless, if you don’t get the Coltrane bug, Miles, Bird, Cannonball, etc. are all still so hip you might need new pants. :slightly_smiling:

So, the other night whilst driving to the ice rink for yet another punishing match du hockey, I passed a billboard for a casino located down the highway some distance toward Chicago. Upon said billboard, the casino was touting a scheduled appearance by none other than Googoo Dolls.

That band embodies the genre of 90’s music that I think should be called Painfully Boring Alt-Cross-Over. It doesn’t make me blindingly angry the way Steely Dan does, rather, it makes me want to bash my head into a wall until I pass out so I won’t be so. damned. bored anymore.

I don’t care for or about Adele, Florence & The Machine, or The White Stripes.

Sarah Palin and Donald Trump should perform a cover of I Got You Babe.

I guess I’ve gotten old and hard to rouse, but I can’t think of any music that I dislike so much that it makes me blindingly angry or want to cause myself harm anymore. One of my housemates rages furiously when he hears either James Taylor or Grateful Dead. There’s plenty of stuff I don’t care much for, but I just… listen to something else.

Fair enough, but Trump will be singing Hate Will Keep Us Together.

Unpopular, but true: This work is pure pop genius.

Somewhere in Indiana on the highway between Detroit and Chicago is a billboard advertising Steely Dan playing at a casino. We seem to be the bookends for where 80s and 90s bands come to die.

You’ve never taken in a Cowboy Junkies concert, evidently. You won’t need to bash your head into a wall to overcome the boredom; you won’t stay awake long enough.
