Tom Waits smells of bar booths and musky old books.

Beck smells like A1 sauce and gunpowder.

Sonic Youth smell like burnt matches.

When i hear The Kooks i see the faces of dead souls trapped in eternity. Now that doesnt mean The Kooks are LIKE dead souls trapped in eternity, it means they ARE dead souls trapped in eternity.

When I listen to Kenny Rogers I smell cheap candles, cigarettes on their last puff, bowling ball polish, and bad leather.

My sister happened to be burning incense while I was listening to Sunn 0)))'s BLACK ONE a number of times, so I associate the smell of the incense with that particular brand of Metal.
