No idea how one song encompasses the tragedy of human suffering and trauma. A truly beautiful song that anyone who enjoys music needs to listen to. It became my #1 song the day I listened to it and its been ever since
i value repetition & loudness (volume & atmosphere) for my meltdown music . both of these songs (by julian casablancas & the voidz + sufjan stevens) have almost meditative flows that you can tap into especially when listening loud & on repeat , building until they are all encompassing .
the heavy distorted riff in sadness & the mantra of i want to be well (i‘m not fucking around!) have been steady accompaniments to many of my meltdowns , spiritual & otherwise . tbt to scream/crying i want to be well in the car on calgary highways 🤘🥲
Whenever I’ve needed to just cry it out I listen to True Love Waits by Radiohead on repeat. Rain in Numbers by Beach House is also similar in how slow, sad, and beautiful it sounds.
