    For all the fans of old alternative j-rock.

    This song fucks so hard, harder than I did your [REDACTED] last night.

    There's just something about 90s alt-j-rock that Naruto-hugs something inside me. It makes me feel like I'm a ronin student trying to escape all of my what-ifs. Maybe it's the big choruses or the raw vocal performances.

    Better a song than the vet, right?

    So is it just a global constant that STEM departments in colleges look and are constructed like dogwater while the humanities actually look like a proper institution?

    'Cause in my college's STEM side, we had old colonial style buildings and moss and lichens, and the humanities (and med, which is STEM) had chic cafes.

    @StoneInky Well, the equipment and facilities are probably still top-notch even if the buildings are a bit shabby. That's what the funding goes to, probably. Please don't let strangers on the internet influence your academic future :sweating_profusely:

    My college had the opposite. STEM was new postmodern geometric shape buildings. Liberal arts had the older but more natural/refined looking buildings.

    No term in music has been more debated than "punk" (shoegaze maybe, but that's a single-neuron debate).

    What is punk? Just noise?

    Does it lean a certain way? Left? Right? Center? A secret other dimension?

    Whichever way, it shouldn't be hard getting behind Nazis fucking off, and I tend to agree with The Dead Kennedys.

    I... I literally made this account on a whim after a friend told me about the site. Very low commitment.

    How am I just finding out that I was a day 2-er this whole time?

    I'm ancient, a fossil, I was breaking bread in Gobekli Tepe and getting trepanned.

    Life is at the stage where I know I don't remember the formula for the area of a trapezoid, but I don't even feel like looking it up.

    This one is cozy, but like in the way the hollowed-out stomach cavity of a recently deceased body is probably cozy. It's hard to describe.

    The sparse, repetitive instrumentation and despondent vocals lull you into a trance until the extended outro rudely awakens you with its Jellyfish Jam level of comedic loudness. It's an interesting ride.

    Felt a little emo, might delete l8er xD #23

    A crowning achievement of 90s emo. The riff is a genuine squealer, and it'll transport you to a dingy basement show where you lowkey wanna mosh but don't want the girl in the corner with the septum piercing to think you're lame.

    Feeling a little flu-ridden, so the mood today is dreampop. This one is for nice boys only, no bad boys.

    Look at the album cover. It's a nice boy approving a flower, reaffirming that they care.

    Listen if you like dreampop band names that sound like tampon brands.

    Hot take: I hate slow people on planes a lot more than babies crying on planes.

    Get a move on :mad_s:

    Because they are cunts.

    They want the fastest exit.

    the doors not even to an exit

    its just some door leading to the lounge or smth
    and half the time they don't even go in, they just stand there for 20 minutes on their phone then walk away to the actual exit- on the other side of the building

    From a band featured before on these recs, Sunglasses is the perfect accompaniment to your most pathetic of mental episodes. It ostensibly tells of a man trying and failing to project an image of classiness, to the tune of some incredibly wacky yet undeniably groovy post-punk.

    Alexis Marshall is a bastard and ideally, he shouldn't get a single cent. That said, that doesn't extend to his bandmates.

    This one is a real hoe-scarer. It's harrowing from its first note, and without a moment's rest, it stabs you with the sourest guitar of all time. This song is a metal baseball bat to the head.

    Is it Jid? or J-I-D?

    Whichever it is, there's certainly no question that this track bangs. It fucks even. It's a pint of sasquatch testosterone injected straight into your veins. It'll put a jungle on your chest. Each verse just oozes unbelievable hype and machismo. Don't blame me if you start punching dudes unprompted after listening to this track.

    This might be a yap because Pink Floyd was my favorite band in highschool.

    Roger Waters is as pertinent as he's ever been. People say a lot of shit about him, "Oh, I like his music, but I don't like his politics", among a slew of other things undermining his artistic vision, which was always a union between the music, the theatrics, and the politics.

    And of course, its subject matter screams out eternally through all human ages. It uses feminine imagery to drive home the senseless loss of life during war, much like Southampton Dock, but this Waters is a whole lot wearier after over 7 decades of life. He can hardly even reach those upper registers he used to flaunt on Floyd's more desperate tracks.

    The track ends with yet another Waters staple, zooming into a large issue until it becomes personal. "It feels like deja vu. The sun's gone down and I'm still missing you," hits many of the same tender and intimate notes as Pigs on the Wing.

    You can say a lot about Roger Waters. He even claims that he'd do a better job as God on this song. However, I feel that this track and the whole album, really, will touch the human in you.

    Never stop fighting for what's right ✊
