Musical Nostalgia
 

Post any songs that the second you here them, you are immediately transported to a particular place

Pixies - Debaser (June 2011, in the middle of a park, drunk as fuck)
Sonic Youth - The Diamond Sea (February 2013, aimlessly walking around downtown)
The Soft Boys - Underwater Moonlight (May 2012, everything was just in a good place)
Oval - Do While (May 2013, everything was just in a bad place)
Silver Jews - The Wild Kindness (May 2013, high school graduation)
Schoolboy Q - Hands on the Wheel (September 2012, my school's homecoming)

The Beta Band - its all too beautiful, Croyde in Devon
New Order - blue monday, a club in Bournemouth that used to be on the pier. Coming up and looking at the sea

mostly this.



Other: Pearl Jam's-Brain of J takes me to like 3rd? grade. In fact, that whole album takes me back. I remember being in the hospital for a few days(more like a week) because of my kidneys and my brother coming to visit and gave me PJ's Given to Fly(? I think?) single with the b-side being Leatherman...and he also brought my PS1 withe Resdient Evil 2 which he had just rented. It was so fun.

In Utero takes me REALLLY back doing math homework in my brother's room. posters, Animaniac's Wakko figures all over the room, GIANT Pearl Jam sign over the radio. SUperman comics. Large brown wardobe plastered with magazine images of NIRAVANA. FUck...

Bowery Electric - Coming Down
Bardo Pond - Tantric Porno

night bus, 3 am, me returning from downtown, drunk, world spinning around me.

This reminds me of riding the subway in Tokyo:

Joy Division - New Dawn Fades (The busride home from school on my 18th birthday in January 2009, feeling like a piece of shit and a royal fuckup while watching the grey industrial town-scape passing by through the window)

Of A Mesh - Burning Bride (Walking around the cemetery of St. Paul's Churchyard in NYC, April 2012)

My Bloody Valentine - When You Sleep (February 2010, being at a party with a special someone that would lighten up my life for the months to come)

Garbage - Honeybee (Summer 2007, a long, hot and aimless summer that seemed all too much like a road movie without a proper conclusion)

Christian Death - Haloes (September 2010, once again feeling like a royal fuckup and being unsure about my future, climbing onto the framework around the residential building I used to live in at the time to take some aerial shots of the sunset)

Lou Reed - Walk On The Wildside (My second trip to NYC this very May 2013)

What's the opposite?

There are some things I can't enjoy because they remind me of bad times.
