What album are you listening to?

doc wrote:most of the time i have to listen to a certain kind of music to fall asleep... particularly if i have to be up at some particular time cos i'll be worrying about how much sleep i get, so the music has to be something relaxing and easy to tune out. otherwise i'll get too wrapped up in what's going on and then it's like 'oh that album's over - guess that's 45 minutes down the drain, what's next'.

yeah me too for sure. it has to be engaging enough to keep me from thinking but it also has to be easy to tune out. it also has to be at the precisely correct volume with the same reasons.

but see when i'm drunk and its 4:30am i fall asleep to anything

yeah i guess that's true for me too, haha.

i need to listen to this again sometime, it's been like 5 years. i've been getting really into "Come On, Die Young" lately.

In need of something to stir me into action so giving this a spin

boring ass album, i dunno why i'm listening to it tbh.

but just got back from a 90s party where we just listened to as many songs we could come up with for like 5 hours and we STILL didn't listen to everything we thought of!

I've never heard that one but, strangely, I stuck on



when I got in from work. It made me fall asleep, hmmm,...... but that's not to say it's boring but just very relaxing.

I'm stuck inside sick and slowly going mad listening to Allegri - Miserere Mei, Dues on repeat.

this one goes out to thomasj, wherever you are

ive probably posted this image in here before. best ambient music ever.

Don't listen to this often but it's one of my favourite albums

one of my guaranteed feel-good albums. i need this


I need a better way to get my head straight
It's not like anybody would know
I've got a silver cloud high above me
Running circles around and round me

Turn it up again we're going nowhere
And let the sound surround everyone
I play the static with the noise in my head
And let the sound surround everyone

Go off the deep end
I've got nothing to prove
And I've got nothing better to do
I'm so happy so fuckin happy now
That I'm far from the glare of the city

Turn it up again we're going nowhere
And let the sound surround everyone
I play the static with the noise in my head
And let the sound surround everyone

A better way, a better way, a better way
I need a better way

I heard the white noise
The waves and radiation
They're falling from the sky

Turn it up again we're going nowhere
And let the sound surround everyone
I play the static with the noise in my head
And let the sound surround everyone

Turn it up again we're going nowhere

I play the static with the noise in my head
And let the sound surround
Turn it up again
Let the sound surround uhhh...

I had to go check which album that is and I think I prefer that cover to the one I have with the bare bum.

yeah thats the american cover i dunno i think it is pretty gorgeous. i watched an early strokes interview recently and they were talking about it and the interviewer was making fun of hte american cover for being "a scientific drawing of the big bang" and they kept being like no you haven't seen it it looks really cool

I love the colours...I think I might go dig this album out as it's been a very long time and used to like it a lot....wonder if I'll still enjoy it...hmm?
