I... kind of had some rough times during college. And, while I've never been one to whom it would ever occur to say "this music helped me through ___" (because that's just not how I work), I've always been extremely into music and so have some very strong associations of certain music to certain times in my life ( Read more... )

I used to fall asleep listening to Metallica's thrashier albums, so I'm not even sure what to post. A song that makes me fall asleep because it's so boring? Or one that relaxes me and puts me in a good, floaty, trance-y sort of mood where I might fall asleep if I was so inclined ( Read more... )

And lo -- they now have an article about Buck-Tick up. The writer posted on buck_tick with a link to his article. My response. I noticed the writer completely ignored my comment about B-T's " ( Read more... )

The new Buck-Tick album arrived yesterday at my house! Got home at 10pm, and didn't actually get a chance to burn it and copy it onto my mp3 player until around 3:30am. T_T But I did it so I would be able to listen to it on the train this morning, and at whatever opportunities over the weekend. I only listened to the album once through and I ( Read more... )
