It’s still doable to catch up on one year worth of material, but trying to cram SID’s timeline of the past four to five years in my brain is totally pushing it. No clue where to start from. orz
I found myself more or less unable to enjoy music for several years of my early adulthood, got too busy with life, studies and work, wanted to let go of memories tied to the songs, whatever. I then dropped music from my life altogether, not only SID. The gradual loss of quality in their releases definitely helped ease the process though.
I probably listened to dead stock once after its release, not even giving it my full attention. Maybe as background music for doing something else. Accidentally heard S on a movie trailer. Then an entirely blank period of time until last week. Been on a listening binge ever since, but I still can’t really bring myself to give a proper chance to the post major debut stuff (they only just debuted and suddenly 8 years though? To think their indies era was so short compared to how long they’ve already been major). Unfortunate record deal bs…
Was definitely expecting the old songs to hit my heart with a bang, but that didn’t happen at all. No pain, maybe a sting of nostalgia. Everything’s turned into warm memories now. I lived through most of my adolescent life listening to SID, the highest ups and deepest downs. Not many others compare to what SID has given me over the years. Always fond of them.
Edit, forgot to say I am EXCITED. /o/ I just told someone this autumn how I could never listen to this band ever again, well, here we are!
more music talk,
シド,
so many possible lyric references,
今でもデビュー微妙だと思ってるけど。
