Untitled and UnPOLLed: Belly's Excellent 2nd Album 'KING'

King isn't creepy, it's sexy!

I remember reading something about how people thought it was about pedophilia back in the day. And Tanya tried to provide an explanation of what it was about--something about a young prince and trying the light the ocean from underneath--that I remember thinking even back then that was on the incoherent side

i have never heard this album.

That is surprising!!!

I don't think I voted in this but I probably would have voted "Now They'll Sleep" and I'm surprised nobody else did.

It's so good.

Tanya and Gail reunited! This is so lovely and heart-warming.

the whole of Belly's catalogue is on Spotify. This may seem unnecessary given that they have an eighteen track Best Of based on two LPs and a collection of b-sides, but said Best Of is missing two of their greatest songs, namely the b-sides "Diamond Ribcage" and "Baby's Arm."

Wish I could track down a good rip of that live version of Judas My Heart - the clear vinyl of Seal My Fate sounds terrible.

ACUTELY
I HEARD IT

Sometimes I think Tanya Donnelly was the Dawn Richard of the 90s

Ummmmmmmmmmmmm.

This record tho

The other night I figured out that Tanya penned my 2nd favorite rock tune of all time. Was b moment for me

That cover is epic

Silverfish 0

oh man what

That was always the ONLY track I was on the fence about but tbh it sounds better now

Can't get over how badass TD looks on that cover. She really brought something entirely new.

The last track on this album used to make me cry so hard

Now eyes burn circles in the dark
And when the mirror talks to me, I listen with my heart
Kind of common cry
Kind of common living lie
