Day12: Motivational

Well I’m one that missed a day. Must have forgotten to post.

John Prine has been very motivating for me in the last 13 years or so.

 

[Matt M]

Somehow missed this one, played it but forgot too post!

Day 13 - Synthesizer
Play something that prominently features synths

Tune-yards - WHOKILL

Day 18 - Wrath / Envy
Play something angry or resentful

Let's go with some righteous anger.
I like to listen to Fugazi when I need something to boost me up.
Never gets old, always invigorating.

Fugazi - Repeater



Edit: Forgot to add this video

Day 18 - Wrath / Envy
Play something angry or resentful

Binging Peaky Blinders currently, which is all about wrath and envy. Red Right Hand is the perfect song for this series, and flows throughout it. I'm sure Mrs. Imtheocean will be happy when this phase is over, especially when I'm playing this album everyday at Christmastime.

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds ~ Let Love In

Scooped by@Yer Ol Uncle D so I'll choose a different title

I took our kids and their friends to Warped Tour every year for about a 6 year stretch. A few bands made a huge positive impression on me. One was The Dead 60s (one record, kaput, gone, dammit) and another was Anti-Flag. Bought three shirts at their merch table. Our son and daughter got theirs signed. Your post made me pull mine out of the drawer for a photo op.

Is there a better philosophy?

Seen them the last couple of times they have toured the UK, great energy

One of his best albums, imo. He has such a strong discography.

Day 17 - Payday
Play something about money

Michael Chapman - 50
–featuring Money Trouble

Day 18 - Wrath / Envy
Play something angry or resentful

Ben Folds Five - Whatever and Ever Amen

This covers both anger and resentment pretty well, including One Angry Dwarf and Song for the Dumped.

Not sure why he hasn't been on my radar before. The guy that runs my local shop is a big fan and has a ton of his stuff. I'll have to start digging in.

Day 18 - Wrath / Envy

Linkin Park ‎– Hybrid Theory


"Shut up when I'm talking to you
Shut up, shut up, shut up
Shut up when I'm talking to you
Shut up, shut up, shut up
Shut up"

If you have a chance go see Nick Cave live.
Best concert I've ever seen. Super tight band and he has charisma for ages.

Day 18 - Wrath / Envy
Play something angry or resentful

So for all these challenge threads, I make a preliminary list just with what pops into my head first. I usually stick to the list. For this day I have Tool – Opiate (drinking and being around all that wine has chilled Maynard out a lot, he hasn't been all that angry in a while).

But...as I was driving the other day I heard a track off this album....so now it's in there festering.

I do wish SOMEONE would get around to reissuing Betty.


Helmet – Meantime
ORG Music / Amphetamine Reptile Records – ORGM-1010, 1992/2011

Dark Maroon swirl

Day 18
Wrath/Envy

Clearly that kid ain’t happy about those socks.

J.D. McPherson - Socks

 

[zomgbear]

Day 14 - G.O.A.T.
Play something from someone considered one of the G.O.A.T.s in their field to celebrate Jay-Z’s birthday (it’s off by 10 days, I’m reaching here!)

Somehow forgot day 14 so making it up tonight!

 

[zomgbear]

Day 16 - 80s
Play something from the 80s

2 albums have already been played that I was thinking of. I wanted to play some Janet but they are in boxes and I'm lazy tonight. So lets go back to 1989 (repress though).
