i also really love "got so high" and "turn me on" and despite/because of the goofy-ass lyrics, "ways"

A masterpiece.
I’m not pandering, I’m just aware of my sources.
Music is foundational to my life. Though I am infused with Joy Division and Bon Iver and such, the headwaters of the music that flows through me, all of it, finds its source in Black brilliance.

Kinda feel like the midst of a gentle entreaty to a suicidal friend is not the best time to belt out a 'YEAHYEAHYEAHYEAHYOW'. Like did you forget they're literally tottering on the ledge, Stephan? Maybe pocket your banshee wails until your fragile buddy is safely on the ground again.

For those not into blindly clicking links: It's the entire 1997(?) episode of MTV's Road Rules where the cast gets to meet Third Eye Blind and work on a suicide prevention PSA set to "Jumper"
― handsome boy modelling software (bernard snowy), Thursday, 10 September 2020 17:09 (four years ago) link
OMG
Does it make me an asshole if I suggest that said suicide prevention PSA functions in part as a gift from the '97 cast of Road Rules to their future selves?

I know nothing about him as a person but based only on his songs he always seemed sorta like a golden retriever recovering from a mild head injury. My illusions, they are shattered.

new album is great, better than screamer in my estimation. definitely, explicitly their recorded-remotely "pandemic" album, coded into both the lyrics (which reference it directly and obliquely) and the sound (acoustic guitar-dominated, and for the most part the more muted side of 3eb, a la the second half of ursa major, but also occasionally fractured and weird, bc jenkins loves bon iver so much). there's also a suite of three post-punkish songs in the middle of the record ("dust storm," "the dying blood," and "funeral singers") and they're my favorite songs on it, especially the "just like heaven"-biting "dust storm," married to a lyric that really steeps me in my climate change feelings
― STOCK FIST-PUMPER BRAD (BradNelson), Thursday, 23 September 2021 18:50 (two years ago) link
actually, "funeral singers" kinda sounds like a long lost song from out of the vein, it's increasingly my favorite

I watched John/Nick Cassavette’s ‘She’s So Lovely’ this week, & I noticed on the film’s IMDB page ‘Semi-Charmed Life’ is listed in the soundtrack. I did not hear it in the film. Maybe used for a trailer or something?

Today in weird algorithms: The "You might also like..." Spotify playlist recs under Third Eye Blind albums are about what you would expect --'California Rock', '90s Frat Party', etc -- but their recommendations for The Third Eye Blind Collection (3xCD compilation of first the three albums in full) are the "This is..." artist playlists for Big Sean, Pusha T, Jay-Z, A$AP Rocky, and Future

I don't know what the deal is...I wrote these dudes off as corporate himbos when they first emerged and it isn't even really my era (Ii was well embedded in college at the time and not listening to pop/alt radio at all at the time) so there isn't even the taint of nostalgia to explain it away, buuuuut...I'm really feeling the singles from their first album lately? Are...are they actually good? Were they growers rather than showers? 'Losing a Whole Year' is haunting me at the moment. 'Never Let You Go' has done this previously. Help. Help me.
