Daft Punk - One More Time

Before 2001 I really didn't listen to music. I hadn't ever listened to a full album before. But this song blew my motherfucking mind. It was the first album I bought. I was obsessed with daft punk. I actually started listening to music, let alone electronic music who prior to 2001 I would have told you required no talent and wasn't real music.

Reminds me of the fall/winter of ninth grade when this first came out. I was madly in love with this girl named isabella, she had the biggest eyes and the shiniest hair and the most graceful walk. it was like everywhere she went, she didnt just walk, she would glide. Probably because she was a dancer. i just remember one night at like 11:30 (which, in 9th grade, i thought was super late for a school night) listening to this album. and right around the end of runaway into the beginning of hell of a life i realized that isabella didn't give a shit about me, and i realized how much harm i was doing to myself by chasing after her. After what I learned that night I stopped being so self-destructive and going for this unattainable holy grail of a girl. And from that I began taking care of myself because I saw that i cared about isabella (not really her specifically because I never really cared about her as a person, just as an ideal of a really attractive girl that I couldn't get) more than myself, and i saw how fucked up that was. That's why I always tell people this was the album that got me through freshman year haha

I used to listen to this all the time when I was 11 or so. I would have my friend over and we would play Star Wars Battlefront on my xbox and he would always want to listen to the song "Friends" on repeat and I never really knew why. Looking back on it I feel so happy but also very sad. I didn't have a care in the world back then and could get away with playing vidya all day. Now I have so much else to worry about. I wish I could go back for a while.

Since I've been forced into the underground by the yah-bots due to my black skin, music has just declined. Unsurprising considering this is the only album permitted by the cvlt.

remember when this came out and the next week or so it was regularly snowing. Everyday i would listen to this and walk some what aimlessly around my city feeling completely relaxed. For the first time in years.
It was this that made me want to come off paxil and realising that the drug was doing more harm than good.
Was also at the time i met this girl and was completely comfortable being myself around.

The Fall Of Troy - Doppelganger

Reminds me of the month I was hired by my town's local playhouse to play drums in the pit band for one of their plays. I would listen to it in the car to and from the church they were holding the play at. Reminds me of moving my drums in and out of the church in the fucking cold February night for rehearsals, and taking lunch break to get pizza down the street with my friend who was the pianist for the band. Also reminds me of seeing my current girlfriend in the audience of one of our last shows and being too pussy to say hello.

Takes me back to 2007 when I got my heart broken for the first time, I just got so many emotions connected to this song it's hard to describe what vibe it gives me.

3 years ago this past June I was diagnosed with Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma (type of Cancer) so I had to be transported out to the nearest children's hospital (which is a 5 hour drive from home) to receive treatment as an inpatient for 8 months. The tumor was located at the lower end of my spinal cord, pinching it off and rendering me paralyzed from the waist down. One of the nights that I was laying in my hospital bed, wishing that it all be over and to have an end to my miserable depressing life, I came across this song by Fog called "Pneumonia." I vividly remember listening to the lyrics and just crying myself to sleep thinking what a waste of a life I was.

This fucking album. Holy shit, the nostalgia. I bought this fucker on release day and for the better part of a decade it stuck with me.

Listening to it reminds me of my first kiss, learning to drive, being nervous as fuck to start High School, the ups and downs of my family life through that era and everything in between.

Where does time go? I still remember blasting "So Far Away" on the way to the movie theater to meet my first girlfriend in 2005. It feels just like yesterday that I had that nauseous feeling in my stomach and was tapping my leg like a mad man over the anxiety of a first date. Listening to that song and yelling the lyrics in the personal studio that was my beat-up F-150 helped calm me down and put me somewhere else for a little while.

ultima ii massage

back when i was little my parents had me stay at this babysitter's house. this was around '98 or '99 or so. her son had left behind an nes with maniac mansion and some contra sequel, and lots of weird action figures of soldier dudes where you could flip them around and make their eyes bug out and turn into mutants and weird gross shit like that. it was right out on the edge of these suburbs so that when you looked in one direction it was all cookie-cutter houses with little pools but when you looked the other way it was just a long dusty road for miles with a big cornfield on the other side. she had lots of vhs tapes of weird obscure slasher/horror movies that she obviously never let us watch, but the covers alone used to entrance me and weird me out. this album brought all those vibes back.
