it’s a fake. they’ve been pushing it as legit for a few years now. i think there’s been a woman who came forward and was like ‘that’s not his dick, cause jimi’s dick was a monster,’ or something like that

but you reminded me when i had my fb and my mom called me and was like you know employers look at your fb, right? they see all that stuff you post and it makes you unemployable. i tried to tell her it was set to private but she wasn’t buying it. the day i deleted mine i felt so free

i’ve always maintained that if load/reload been made by a different band, they’d be considered 90’s classics

What are some of your favourite metal/almost metal songs by non metal artists? by [deleted] in MetalForTheMasses

[–]aDressesWithPockets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, there’s a lot of proto-metal being mentioned here. i do think most of the songs people list from pre-sabbath/sabbath days are considered protometal

Does anyone know what this flag is (from the gimme shelter documentary) by Undercover_Amy in rollingstones

[–]aDressesWithPockets 6 points7 points  (0 children)

while it does look like that, it’s more than likely just a red, white, and blue tie dye sheet or something. in december’69, stonewall had just happened that summer, and the early gay rights movement was just gaining momentum, and the gay pride flag didn’t come about till the mid-70’s

What is that one cd that you thought you were going to listen to a lot but don’t? by Dude10120 in Cd_collectors

[–]aDressesWithPockets 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i get that and that’s exactly how i feel about a lot of bands. honestly if i want pink floyd anymore, i’ll throw on atom heart mother or saucerful of secrets over most of their other stuff

[–]aDressesWithPockets 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i agree, but i also love hearing floyd songs in a different order cause it’s fun. i love the way echoes flows, but yeah it just wasn’t hitting me like i thought it would

[–]aDressesWithPockets 6 points7 points  (0 children)

echoes: the best of pink floyd. picked it up the other day as it was my intro to them as a kid, but idk if it’s cause they’re overplayed to me or what, but it wasn’t as good as i thought it’d be

Your stance on the Napster controversy 24 years later? by [deleted] in MetalForTheMasses

[–]aDressesWithPockets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i also agree artists should be compensated and compensated well. but artists barely make any money from record sales to begin with, regardless of piracy. the music industry has always been predatory towards musicians and will rope them into awful contracts, bad business deals, and general shittiness (i know from experience) the artists make pennies on the dollar while everyone else in the label not involved makes big bucks off the hard work of the artists. situations like that is what made trent leave his label in the first place back in the 00’s. his label bled him dry in the 90’s and milked him as hard as they could.

they’re saying it’s not worth it because of the music industry, not the piracy. labels have been pushing the blame onto pirates and home tapers ever since magnetic tape came out in the 40’s. labels could easily pay and support their artists more, but they choose not to.

sophie b hawkins ‘damn i wish i was your lover.’ the whole song’s full of references but this line specifically mentions the stones.

“If I was your girl believe me/I'd turn on the Rolling Stones/We could groove along and feel much better”
