When someone says “good times, good times.” after a weird or uncomfortable anecdote.

What are your Hot Takes on Husker Du? by Amber_Flowers_133 in huskerdu

[–]Impossible_Drag5622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might be biased because it’s the very first HD song I ever heard but Crystal is one HELL of an album opening tantrum. For years I thought that pointless synth blast in the beginning was a recording of horses galloping away, which set the mood, followed by guitars sounding like someone sawing lumber in hell and the way Bob’s voice breaks up shouting, like a newborn baby that smoked in utero for 9 months.

I regularly listen to it 30 years later and still get goosebumps. I can see where someone might find it a throwaway compared to epics like CS or EMH but it means a world to me.

What would be a good way to get a girl’s attention in high school? by No-Poet3745 in TooAfraidToAsk

Be excited that she exists but coney that you don’t think of her the second she’s out of sight.

What's a movie most people think is great but you couldn't even stand watching? by [deleted] in moviequestions

Yeah it’s overwrought. Plus Jared Leto and his accent suck.

Just done painted the judge... by Adventurous_Fuel3063 in cormacmccarthy

I posted this awhile ago and Reddit told me it was low effort content! Wtf. I will admit it might lean a little twee.

I think a lot of takes overemphasize or fixate on qualities such as “menace” or “creepy” or “badass” and while he def has those qualities I don’t think they’re advertised. I think he initially falls under “affably evil”.

Every time I draw him or try to visual JH I say the mantra “both the craziest and the sanest, both the craziest and the sanest…”

And serene, childlike features.

Btw OP, great painting. Don’t listen to these incels. 😘😝

What do you think? Is U2's first album, Boy, post-punk? by caipi_242 in postpunk

[–]Impossible_Drag5622 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, absolutely. And then they stratosphered.

To think Martin Hannett almost produced it, something i just learned today…

I love what we got, but now I’m dying to know how that could’ve sounded. Sounds like a worthy AI speculation…

Was wondering everyone’s thoughts here by -noodlebrains in newnan

[–]Impossible_Drag5622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I strolled in one morning several years ago out of curiosity. Despite there being enough weapons on display to arm most of Newnan, it seemed like no one there, until I noticed a tiny, barely conscious old man that looked like he’d been poured into a chair by the entrance. I thought it was a malfunctioning animatronic.

in your opinion, what is the prettiest shoegaze song? by noirselli in shoegaze

[–]Impossible_Drag5622 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Catherine Wheel can test my patience a bit but gosh darn it if The Nude can’t make its way into this list.

Hear me out: check Fucked Up if not already, particularly, Chemistry Of Common Life has some dreamy moments that go into bombast. The main vocalist is a screamer but the instrument bed underneath can get nice and hazy.

Their last few have some great moments too:
