where's that text post about how when you relisten to an album a bunch of times that's when you really start to appreciate it, and that's the music seeping into your brain
okay so i don't know how popular of a take this is, but HEAR ME OUT HEAR ME OUT. dirt is widely regarded as aic's best album, and i don't disagree with that statement because that album is, let's be real, a fucking powerhouse of an album, but tbh,,,,, i honestly think facelift is on the same level?? because dirt has the power and emotion and the fact that it's like one of The Albums of the decade, but facelift has variety and artistry and is like literally one of the best debut albums i've ever heard in my LIFE. you start with some insane power songs (we die young, sea of sorrow, and of course man in the box), and then it gives us shit like love, hate, love?? one of the most haunting and emotional raw songs in their entire discography?? and then it ends with songs like i know somethin (bout you) and real thing and it just fucking grooves, man!!! like, there's not a single skip on facelift for me. i can and will sing straight through it. AND IT'S THEIR DEBUT ALBUM, I CANNOT GET OVER THAT. LIKE??? FUCK YEAH, FACELIFT
I stay away and I know somethin (bout you) are underrated bops π«
you ever listen to a song 47 times in a row and every time youβre like wow what a good song. Iβm gonna play it again.
October 29, 1987 βͺ LβAmour
βI remember one particular night at LβAmour in Brooklyn, which was one of the most classic metal/hard rock venues that anyone could ever play in New York City. Izzy got totally drunk downing beers backstage while we were waiting to go on. But he remained cool in his own wayβIzzy was always funny like that. That night he let on like nothing was wrong, spending the entire show sitting on the tiny ledge between the top and bottom cabinet of his rig. It was hilarious to watch.ββSlash (excerpt from his autobiography)

i'm legit curious pls reblog this and put in the tags what your first band t shirt or merch was
no more blorbo questions what was the first music album that changed you fundamentally
I still think if you want to broaden your taste musically you should do it by literally branching out. Take something you already like, look into itβs influences, and give those a try, find something you like then do that again and again and itβs infinite. Yes, by the nature of music in the 20th century this *will* eventually take you invariably outside your genre zone and national zone, if youβre willing to give it a try. (If you like Lady Gaga, she references Sun Ra on her first album and loves him, and from there youβre already a second away from so much music from Africa and Asia, let alone the entire jazz traditionβ¦) Getting into music in a broad and general way is such a magical trip itβs indescribable. Look up the samples, check the wiki ask friends look up the references etcβ¦
