For some reason, hearing any music clutters my brain currently. Has anyone else ever just been so sick of music, and if so, what did you do?

[demonrail666]

I had the same thing happen to me about a year ago. Nothing I usually listened to seemed to give me any pleasure. I started listening to old rockabilly and country records and discovered something that I knew I'd always liked but never as much as i ended up doing, especially country - which i probably listen to more than anything else these days.

i once went through a 6 month phase of not listening to any music at all, about 5 or 6 years ago. just got completely sick of it. can't get enough of it now!

I go through that all the time. Not just music but EVERYTHING. I have spent more time sitting alone in my completely silent room, not doing anything at all, in the past year... than ever in my life. It's called "depression" in my case...

[SuperCreep]

I usually just listen to genres that are normally way out of my daily listening routine.

got that from time to time too, horrible.

What you've done is become a cool-music glutton. You didn't know when enough was enough, and now you feel like throwing up. I've done this from time to time, and I have a remedy that always works for me. All you need to do is purge your system with some top 40 radio station, and within a couple of days you will be back to your old self again.

Two whole days! Wow. That takes commitment.

[Rob Instigator]

hahah!

gmku cracks me up again!


I have not boycotted music, instead I have been playing BOOK OF LOVE's first album repeatedly

[jon boy]

it happens to everyone at some point. its a good thing as you can get into other types of music that you never heard or were not into before.

[demonrail666]

The hardest thing for me was separating what I'd listened to for years out of habit, from what I actually enjoyed. It was tough but sort of liberating to stick a Big Black album and realise, 'ya know, I really don't like this any more.'

[Rob Instigator]

you gotta take breaks from things or else your mind reels over th repetetive monotony

I suggest downloading the audio from kim kardashian and ray jay's sex tape and looping the part where he piss3es on her and listen to that over and ver and over and over and over again, until you are ready to blast some goddamn sonic youth to save yr sanity

yeh thats true it is liberating. i realised a lot from taking breaks from music.

Enjoy the silence momentarily and then try something new. Listen to a band or artist you have never heard before, but have been wanting to check out. It's been many years since my last musical funk, but I remember being burnt out on the typical verse chorus verse shit and a friend getting me into some wonderful noise that opened my ears to the whole no wave scene and beyond. Breaks from music are ok temporarily I guess, but with so much out there to learn from and listen to, you shouldn't allow yourself to be bored.

[gmku]

Metaphorically speaking, absolutely.

[Rob Instigator]

as my friend Jaime said whe I told him Kim K was in sex tape, "you mean the one where she takes piss?"

yes. he pisses on her. ray jay gets off on it I guess.

[demonrail666]

wow.

not in a sarcastic or ironic sense. just straight up wow.

[gmku]

So I guess I should be careful when I ask people, as the Brits do, if they are "taking the piss"?

[demonrail666]

if you're talking to kim kardashian you should, definitely.
