If anyone actually looks down the righthand side of this page you should see 3 album covers which usually depict what I’m usually listening to.
Magnolia is still on the car stereo….a classic.
The Killers – Hot Fuss is an excellent album and I’d recommend it to anyone who likes good music. They’ve been bigged-up a lot on Radio 1 and in the trendy media, and usually this means they’ll be shit but they are infact very very good. There are no poor filler tracks on Hot Fuss.
Nine Inch Nails make a surprise entry too. I hadn’t listened to any of this kind of ‘industrial’ music before but I was well aware of the name. This is a live album and is fantastic. Trent Reznor provides superb vocals with amazing emotions, hate, and disdain coming from him, and with a band to help out (Reznor usually playing everything himself in the studio) this CD truly rocks. After listening to this I listened to some studio albums but there wasn’t the same feel and everything was a little too electronic and clean. I would recommend this to anyone who likes their music slightly more disturbing. Check out the lyrics to ‘closer’ my favourite song on the album.
Closer
You let me violate you, you let me desecrate you
You let me penetrate you, you let me complicate you
Help me I broke apart my insides, help me Iove got no
Soul to tell
Help me the only thing that works for me, help me get
Away from myself
I want to fuck you like an animal
I want to feel you from the inside
I want to fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to god
You can have my isolation, you can have the hate that
It brings
You can have my absence of faith, you can have my
Everything
Help me tear down my reason, help me its your sex i
Can smell
Help me you make me perfect, help me become somebody
Else
I want to fuck you like an animal
I want to feel you from the inside
I want to fuck you like an animal
My whole existence is flawed
You get me closer to god
Through every forest, above the trees
Within my stomach, scraped off my knees
I drink the honey inside your hive
You are the reason I stay alive
