Today's 60's,70's,80's post will be featuring some of my favorite music from the 90's! Oh, caught you off guard for a moment, didn't I?
Hello! Welcome! Today, we will be taking a trip back to one of the most confused, confusing, angst-filled, incredibly unfashionable and rather whiny eras. If you guessed the 00's, or even the 80's, you were close, but wrong. Today's subject is the 90's. So, let's explore three of my favorite tracks from the 90's. [Insert memorable cliché from said era].
Only Shallow - My Bloody Valentine
The album Loveless is, in my humble opinion, one of the best albums of the nineties. This track is no exception. Made up of some pretty essential My Bloody Valentine components, this song is filled with blurry (is this even a word to describe a sound?) guitar and vocals that blend in so well you might just mistake them for an instrument.
I Don't Wanna To Grow Up - Tom Waits
One of the more ... accessible Tom Waits songs, this track has been covered by many artists and still remains a staple of any Tom Waits mixtape I make. "I don't wanna be filled with doubt, I don't wanna be a good boy scout." Sums up just about all that I stand for. Ah, who am I kidding?.
The Dead Flag Blues (Intro) - Godspeed You! Black Emperor
Alright, first off, I really like this song/monologue. It does, however scare me shitless. Filled with utterly beautiful strings and soothing sounds that almost contradict, but perfectly compliment, the monologue being sadly repeated.
Thanks for reading.
