Their satanic majesties request- the rolling stones

The Stones go psychadelic, had never really explored this one before recently. They didn’t really explore this stuff further after this album and the album was the panned as a rip off of those trends of the time and the what the Beatles had done, but still give this a listen, cool stuff. This is what digging into discographies and less popular stuff is all about, finding these fun one offs.

The 1973 film soundtrack of "jesus christ superstar"

Unironically incredible 70s art/prog imo. Surprisingly subversive. So gay. Jaw-dropping bass. The concept album is great too, but the OST gets it just right.

“We had to let you have it” - Noir

This is one of the greatest proto-psych rock albums of all time. 1971. Bunch of 1st generation black British dudes from former colonies. Crazy album and crazy story. They disappeared as the album was nearing completion. There was no follow up album, no nothing, they never reappeared. The name of the album comes from the fact that the label decided to put the music out after not being able to find them for a while because it was so good that “We Had To Let You Have It”. I know this because I have an original copy on vinyl and there is a handwritten note printed on a piece of paper inside the sleeve. The track “Rain” is for my money one of the best songs written in this genre from that era. If they had been a popular band, I think it would be considered a classic. Also, I dare you to listen to the song “The System” and tell me Lynyrd Skynyrd didn’t lift the main lick of the Free Bird solo from it. Yeah, I said it.

Ive got a job interview

Righto so after a frankly embarrassing amount of time I’ve managed to secure my self an interview for a tasty job that’ll leave me right satisfied (for now). I‘m on my way right now actually, as I write this. The nerves have yet to hit me. It’s a bit early for my happily unemployed friends to wish my luck and console me (they are all asleep), so I've got a this album to keep me company. -actually it was another user on this site that recommended it, thank you to whoever it was. :) Christ these suit pants are uncomfy and holy fuck you should see this hair cut. No one would have ever guessed I could look even whiter. Oh! This is my stop, wish me luck

Rhetorical questions on materialism

I find often in media, specifically meta media, that we are told materialism (and its association to capitalism and greed) is a sickening disease. A disease that traps us to our boring, normal and sometimes if we are lucky enough, corporate lives. Lives without schizo episodes of terrorism, young boy play things, and massive bank heists. But I’m not so sure it IS a disease ...It can’t be a disease. Or maybe it's precisely that because our lives have been shortened by the disease, that I may expand my pathetic record collection into something bigger and continue making ‘investments’ on my epic, old school pokemon collection. “The things you own end up owning you"   -Tyler Durden. I fucking hope not, I’m this: |_| close to filling my new display case with action figures and I will not become batman's bitch. To see the opposite side of views we subscribe to, is not a difficult thing these days and yet my desire for materialism is supported by very fucking few (comedically, academically and socially). If weed and alcohol is supported and opposed, then why the fuck is no one arguing about my main poison materialism? A case for making your own homestead or even starting that epic #vanlife is so constantly supported and yet the lives we first world masses occupy is celebrated…when? Or maybe it’s truly as the pedos say? “The greatest wealth is to live content with little” -Plato. You’re right Mr Pedo, at least everyone believes that to be right, but in my first world society what most would consider “the greatest wealth” I’d consider “little”. Is it so much to ask for a massive one of a kind library in my house that's sitting on a few acres of fertile land? The kind of library that says, “My cock may be small, but my ego more than makes up for it!” -No, it isn’t so much to ask for, and if I could have it my way, it wouldn't be “so much” for anyone. (See! I'm a humanitarian!) I stumbled across this account on Instagram that seems to be going against the trends of #vanlife and homesteading with his reels depicting a ‘normal life’.The user romanticises the stability of a 9-5 office job (or rather the stability of HIS 9-5 office job.) that America seemed to adore so much, and kinda still does???  For a proud capitalist he makes me surprisingly sick to be honest. Preaching his trademarked phrase, “Normalise the Norm” along with well edited windows into his unsurprisingly grey life. When did the ‘norm’ become so fucking colourless? He isn’t nearly as exciting as or even palatable as a Japanese guy travelling around and living out out of his Kei truck or a big bearded man and his funny dog building a homestead. I must say though. It is nice to see someone defend our collective desire to hold onto our stones…Like an otter! And don’t worry (My teachers always taught me not to begin a sentence with “And”, but I’m a big boy now so you can go get fucked) - I do still romanticise the other side - The other political side if I may indulge even more actually.  The idea of shedding it all and running away, Hopping from person to person, bed to bed and adventure to adventure (STI to STI) is fucking fantastic! A dream perpetrated by my favourite explorer (Indiana Jones) and my favourite slave trader (Sir Francis Drake). Even now after discovering how accessible it is for me to have the comfy materialistic life, I find myself thinking about that badass ‘Heat’ quote: "Don’t let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds if you feel the heat around the corner.” - Not Al Pochino. Hmm, nah fuck all that. Materialistic people shouldn’t have to worry about “the heat around the corner” anyway.  I’m not sure I truly believe in materialism, only that I hope it’s not as bad as people say it is, because I have no intention of stopping.   – You, the reader, should tell me what you think (without forgetting that the title says my questions are rhetorical of course). -I won’t change my mind, but maybe I’ll discover someone as arrogant as me, and that would be cool.
