Before or After
  • Me too. I was really wondering what sort of interview this was.

  • Before or After
  • Not, you're thinking of Deadshot. A deadlock is a Scottish body of water that has been polluted to the point that no life exists in the lake.

  • Windows 7's sample music unironically slapped so hard
  • That's a good point. I'm familiar with the concept, but didn't realize it had been formalized so distinctly, so I suppose you're right.

    It's interesting, though, because one would think that's there's always going to be a balancing act between wanting to make your message more well known and wanting to keep it unadulterated.

  • Windows 7's sample music unironically slapped so hard
  • Knowing those two, they probably love the irony of a corporation paying money to use RTJ's anti-capitalistic, transgressive songs in an ad, let alone a brand like Cadillac.

    But hey, it's "ju$t" money

  • Serotonin
  • I'm in this photo and I don't like it.

  • ‘Really, Really, Really Happy For You, Kamala,’ Says Hillary Clinton, Not Letting Go Of Handshake
  • Of course she's much more likable naturally, so maybe it won't work as well.

    And AOC actually represents change and progress as opposed to being a bland, corporate liberal

  • Flowchart for STEM
  • Look, I'm all for green chemistry, and I'll switch to using safer, more environmentally friendly reagents and solvents the second they are close to the efficacy of the real deal.

    Until then, leave my acetone and heavy-metal catalysts alone!

  • Trump scrambles to pivot campaign to attack Kamala Harris
  • How can anyone who has uttered the words "rule of law" in the past 4 years want someone who has spent much of their life dodging the law over someone who had a career in enforcing it?

    You misunderstand. Republicans won't come out and condemn her as "too tough on crime" directly; they'll fund attack ads and troll farms that will present her as "not progressive enough" as a way to depress progressive voter turnout.

    It's not about trying to sway centrists, because even Republicans can recognize that that would look hypocritical and contradictory. It's about encouraging infighting among leftists and liberals

  • What's Vance got to do with it?
  • Less relevant, though, as she's not American.

    Rolling Stones - Monkey Man

    Bonobos are apes, not monkeys, but I thought it was close enough.

    Aesop Rock - Daylight
  • I love "Night Light;" I actually just put on the Daylight EP after posting so I could hear "Daylight" and "Night Light" back-to-back (plus Blueprint's verse on "Alchemy" is phenomenal)

  • i keep visiting by accident
  • Scottish works better, no?

    Elvis Costello - Watching The Detectives

    Baker Street is where Sherlock Holmes, the most famous fictional detective of all time, lived.

    "Baker Street" -> Sherlock Holmes -> Detective -> "Watching the Detectives"

    Bruce Springsteen - Born to Run
  • In my case, it was because he was my parents' music and all I really knew was "Born in the USA" (and I was too young/naive to recognize the satire, especially since my parents were conservative and always approached lyrics by ignoring all subtext)

    Plus, I grew up in a conservative town and moved to a hipster mecca where nothing was cool if had ever been played on a mainstream radio station.

    Bruce Springsteen - Born to Run

    Songs about cars as a means of escaping everyday life

    And I know it's cool to hate on Springsteen (trust me, I hated on him, too) but seriously folks, listen to the album Born to Run in it's entirety and think back to being in your early 20's and that bone-deep need to get away from everything you grew up around. If you can't relate on some level, then i think you need to do some serious self-reflection on your relationship with your hometown/family

  • The level of detail in the penis silhouette is commendable

    The Dead Milkmen - Bitchin' Camaro

    For whatever reason, I can't hear The Aquabats without immediately thinking of this gem of a song.

    More formal connection, The Dead Milkmen and The Aquabats are both known for their comedic punk

  • No, yeah

  • Modest Mouse - Willful Suspension Of Disbelief
  • If you like this one, you might take enjoy their album The Moon and Antarctica that has a pretty similar vibe all the way through

  • Tom Waits - "Way Down In The Hole"
  • I really loved the first four seasons and how they all had their own unique feel and themes, but I lost steam in season 5. I should probably go back and finish it...

    Modest Mouse - Willful Suspension Of Disbelief

    The chorus from "Chewing Gum" is about opening your ears up to hearing things you don't want to hear, or ceasing "Willful Suspension of Disbelief"

    Tom Waits - "Way Down In The Hole"

    I could keep going with Johnny Cash all day, but "Down There by the Train" sends me down the Tom Waits rabbit hole, and while there's a lot to mine there, I thought I'd keep it in the pseudo-neo-gospel vein with "Way Down in the Hole"

    Johnny Cash - I Won't Back Down

    Let's keep the American Recordings streak going

    Johnny Cash - Rusty Cage

    When I was in my late teens, I was obsessed with Johnny Cash and Rick Rubin's American Recordings, so now I can't hear "Rusty Cage" without thinking of Cash's version

    The Offspring - Genocide

    From one 90's anti-religion SoCal punk band with a PhD to another.

    Five Iron Frenzy - Dandelions

    Another band from the Christian ska/punk boom of the 90's. One of my earliest concerts was The W's opening for Five Iron Frenzy at a roller rink in 1999, so this one is pretty nostalgic for me.

    Also, flower tattoo -> Dandelions, so a double connection

    LCD Soundsystem - Drunk Girls

    The thumbnail and the costume from "IDGAF" immediately reminded me of this video

    clipping. - Say the Name

    "Horror movie vibes in hip-hop" is spelled "clipping."

    edit: more specifically, "Dat Killa Crew" samples the Halloween score and "Say the Name" is based on another seminal horror movie, Candyman

    edit 2: switched the URL to the lyrics video because it's incredibly well done and oddly captivating

    Doom Metal @lemmy.world NielsBohron @lemmy.world

    Hail Darkness - Luciferan Dawn † Coven Of The Blackened One

    New Occult doom rock trio with a very "classic Sabbath meets Jefferson Airplane" sound. It's a little early to tell, but they appear to be worthy successors to the throne of Witch Mountain.

    Every Time I Die - Ebolarama

    I saw Alkaline Trio at the 2002 Warped Tour, which was fantastic (edit: in retrospect, I'd say 2000-2003 was truly the Golden Age of Warped Tour) Out of all the amazing bands I saw/discovered, the one I still listen to to this day is ETiD, so I connected my favorite song from the 2002 era, "Ebolarama"

    A Perfect Circle - Counting Bodies Like Sheep to the Rhythms of the War Drums

    "Go back to sleep!"

    It's been linked before but it's been stuck in my head ever since the Luda song got posted

    Sleep - Dragonaut

    When I clicked link to the Sunn O))) song, YouTube Music's next recommendation was for Sleep, so here's my favorite "single" by that band, "Dragonaut"

    edit: If I was to link my favorite song by Sleep, it'd be Dopesmoker, but not everyone is into an hour-long album consisting of a single song, so I usually play to the masses
