Music that perfectly describes how you felt at a certain period in your life.

Durutti Column - The Missing Boy, written about Ian Curtis, perfectly sums up the feeling when a friend passes away, brutal song.
Cap'n Jazz, The Pixies, the Minutemen, Patti Smith, and The Ramones, and other great groups remind me of my early teen years in a great way. I'm very happy to have grown up with those records.
Lil B reminds me of the worst and best times of my life.

Lyrics


Buckled!
I'm...drunk...
But I'm on my knees
The police stopped chasing
I'm her...new...cool...meat

She pops the...trunk
And she removes me
The machines take pictures of us
And my jaw and my teeth hurt
I'm choking from gnawing on the ball...
And just before I come to
Move to the back of the car
She made me touch the machine
New murderer...
Fuck!

First untie me
Untie me for now
You said you would right
And you were right

Soon I'll let you go (4x)
Soon this will be all over
Well I hope soon - she sang
Soon this'll be all over
Well I hope soon - so she sang

Soon I'll let you go (4x)
So she sang
Soon I'll let you go (4x)
Oh...she sang
Soon I'll let you go (4x)
Oh...she sang
Soon I'll let you go


This song is a huge reflection, at least from my perception, of a pretty chaotic point in my life when I was addicted to a certain opioid analgesic. The lyrics, I felt, summed up my emotions and feelings through the experience. I still love the song but It can often times take me to a darker place.

[Rusty Shackleford]

I go through phases with band and they usually match up with how im feeling for that time.

The Black Angels are me last fall for example.



Right now im floating around Suuns (Images Du Future) and everything by Janelle Monae. Throw in some Chillwave (whatever its called XXYYXX/Tycho/Caribou) type stuff too and thats me...

Lyrics:

Spiritual Isolation - The ultimate frustration
Scratch the surface, tuurn another page
The ugly truth or another pretty lie
You deceived me, I believed you
Why did everything go...

So wrong...
For so long...
So the truth comes out at last

I'm dead inside
(I'm burning up)
A hollow shell
(My private hell)
In my own misery
You leave me to dwell

Then we were young and strong
Now everything is wrong
Did you want me, did you need me
Could you not say you believed me?
Everything we had is gone...
Like an old forgotten song
The deceiver and believer
Now everything is...

So wrong... for so long.


Makes me heavily think of my two year long relationship with my ex. I lied to her a lot about the stupidest shit because I was Immature. Then things changed and rapidly went down hill.

This one always makes me think of the time my friend tried to kill herself

Lyrics
One of these days you'll get away from London town
Causing chaos and delay on the underground
I'll read your letter as I pass away the time
Stuck in a tunnel on the Hammersmith and City line

I'll hurry home a little bored but still alive
Unplug the phone to keep the outside world outside
I'll take some aspirin then I'll take myself to bed
You'll be gone and you'll be dead
All because I never said,

Lean on me I won't fall over
I'm made of steel and stone cold sober
If you feel the need come over
Lean on me I won't fall over

You're off the wagon you were never really on
Chasing the dragon like you're Saint fucking George or someone
Stop punching walls, don't cut yourself
Shift some burden onto somebody else

Lean on me I won't fall over
I'm made of steel and stone cold sober
If you feel the need come over
Lean on me I won't fall over

Am I made of wood am I too arrogant?
To be the last of the good samaritans?
Stop punching walls don't cut yourself
Try shifting some burden onto someone else
Don't give up hope if you think you can't cope
We should keep in touch if it gets too much
Have faith in yourself for the sake of your health
Stop sniffing glue try something new
Confide in your friends you'll get by in the end
If nothing else works have you tried the church?

I didn't want to be so dozy darling
I should have promised you a rosy garden
And told you life is sweet, stick around and enjoy it
Flush that stupid nonsense down the toilet
And lean on me
I won't fall over

[Futility Personified]

Can't Complain by BTMI is brilliant. One of those songs you listen to when you're trying to pull yourself up inside.

[Ele'ill]

there have been musicians that have released albums throughout my life where each album reminds me of a certain period of my life, as an example Bjork's albums do this, all the way from the sugarcubes.

[Os Cangaceiros]

Even though it's undeniably a stupid song, this song will always have a place in my heart and will always remind me of a certain time in my life. My former roommate would often play it after we'd be drinking shots of whiskey, some times with other people, sometimes when it was just us at the apartment. At the line "ALL OF THE ALCOHOLICS, WHERE YOU AT?" he'd put a faux serious look on his face and raise his shot glass, never failed to make me laugh. He had pretty bad taste in music but he's a good guy and a true prole.

That was a pretty dark time in my life in general but those are fond memories.

Picture it! The capitalist mode of production is victorious, the wall has fallen, and America and it's way of life reigns supreme. There's no need for ideology because we've moved beyond that.

Every year I'd swim in the ocean at Hampton beach because we could afford it and I thought of nothing of the world or it's problems because soon they'd be ameliorated by the slow, but sure progress of society.

It was the happiest, but least truthful time in my life. I was about 9 or 10 at the time. So this song reminds me of my childhood.

I've related deeply to The Smiths for an embarrassingly large portion of my life
