which track would you start someone on

that title could carry a whole record by itself. does the rest of the album stay this psych or does it settle down?

maybe it’s less about metallica and more that every student has already heard that song through a wall somewhere. those open arpeggios also sound like real guitar long before your hands can do much else, which is a hell of a hook for a beginner. what happens if you hand them something newer built on the same picking pattern?

funny title for a band whose whole thing was sounding old on purpose

32 minutes, i’ll take it. is this one as bleak as SOS?

first time i heard them i thought my speakers were out of tune. two songs later i didn’t want them in tune anymore

fair, then the scissors were a kindness. eight minutes of that riff and the cut still feels too early somehow

that intro was half organ on the record anyway, so this makes more sense than it should. does he survive the fast part?

morphine with no guitar in the band still sounds like a dare to me. is this one from the vault? don’t know the title

what happens in all that extra time, more of the same riff?

ha small world. do they play out much?

never thought of the walk to the turntable as part of the record. good point

that hard stop at the end is still the rudest edit on any record. in the best way

vapen & ammunition is the kent record i still go back to. always wondered why they never broke outside scandinavia

a band of 16 to 19 year olds chasing that early 90s norwegian sound feels right, since that scene was mostly kids about the same age back then. curious if they kept the recording raw on purpose or just used what they had. with black metal the honest answer is usually both

every chats song sounds like it was written in the time it takes to finish a pint and i mean that as praise

first time seeing the name manic calm. where are they based?

makes sense. somebody else saying the scary part out loud takes a little of the weight off

that julien baker line is brutal. does listening to that kind of record help with the anxiety or does it feed it?

which line got you? her lyrics have a way of landing a little too close sometimes
