Eye- The Smashing Pumpkins
Randy Described Entirety- Built To Spill

Yeah, my taste in music is pretty odd LOL.
Also hi guys. Don't think I ever posted here yet. :p

[nope.]

favorite artist, and why; glass animals or modest mouse. dealing with mental illness is hard, and i see myself a lot in a bunch of these songs by them. especially "pork soda", by glass animals, the "word salad" esque lyrics and imagery reminds me of psychotic episodes, and "edit the sad parts" (tw; for suicide and heavy lyrics) by modest mouse. "bukowski" is also a classic.
favorite song, and why; currently it's "the other side of paradise", by glass animals. it's catchy and the lyrics are gay, i mean. closely followed by "btstu" by jai paul.
favorite album, and why; "...like clockwork" or "songs for the deaf" by queens of the stone age. but really any concept album is gr8. i love listening to them and listening to the story unfold. "act i-v" by the dear hunter is another set of amazing concept albums.
favorite genre; indie, spoken word, progressive rock, emo, just about anything.
favorite music news source [if any]; i don't have a favorite!
least favorite artist, and why; i'm not a big fan of most "screamo" bands, as the screaming gets on my nerves, but i'd never otright diss anything anyone was into. if it means something to them, it's music.
least favorite song, and why; i don't outright dislike any songs, but i guess "work from home" from fifth harmony got annoying after the 10 or 20th time i heard it.
favorite music service pandora or spotify.
favorite platform? (records, cds, digital, etc.); cds, for the feel, digital for the amount i can have

Hey, I went to my first one yesterday too! On the way there I found a £20 note lying on the street, I'm never that lucky so I kept it. Wasn't in a wallet or anything anyway. I got a limited edition gold version of Take Control by Slaves: the sleeve was all in gold with the album cover embossed on it, it came with a book of photos, and the vinyl was white which made me really happy. There's a picture here, not mine obviously c:

[jengatower]

Might as well do this too.
favorite artist, and why; Modest Mouse, above all. Favorite song by them is "Gravity Rides Everything". Their songs really touch me in a way. Definitely one of the best bands in the past few decades.
favorite song, and why; Hard choice, but I guess I'll say Summertime Rolls by Jane's Addiction. It's trippy.
favorite album, and why; Transatlanticism by Death Cab For Cutie or The Moon And Antarctica by Modest Mouse, for the same reasons. It's how the songs are organized and how somber the whole thing is. :')
favorite genre; I mainly listen to a ton of rock subgenres. I tend to enjoy post-hardcore and alternative the most.
favorite music news source [if any]; Don't really pay attention to them, but sometimes I browse Reddit for music news. lol
least favorite artist, and why; I tend to focus more on the artists and bands that I like (I don't listen to the radio), but probably most of the artists on the Billboards 100 list because I'm a dirty hipster.
I also don't really like modern P!ATD because they're getting more and more bland by the years. Dallon Weekes is a sweetheart though. <3
least favorite song, and why; Again, I tend to focus more on the music I like, so this is a hard question to answer. But if I listen to a song I particularly don't like over and over again I'll grow to despise the very sound of it.
favorite music service Spotify. One of the best tbh.
favorite platform? (records, cds, digital, etc.); Digital, because it's all I have. Would love to have some vinyl records though.

Did somebody say Modest Mouse? :0
Edit The Sad Parts ayyyy. One of their oldies. -okay hand sign-
Screamo can be good. It depends on where you look really.
