24 years ago minus a few days I went to the record store and a buddy who worked there said " Hey, you like Soundgarden. Have you heard the new album? Check this out."
After 2 minutes I bought it.
I got dropped off in Broadview Country Club Estates by my girlfriend's BFF and put it in my walkman to walk home.
I walked around long enough to hear it all the way through twice. I was blown away and a little pissed because they had just made the kind of music I was trying to make as I wanted to do something that had elements of the metal I liked but also great, organic sounding Rock and Roll.
Thus began a long term for them as my favourite band on Earth that lasted until the Superunknown tour when it was obvious they were losing steam and were not getting along. It was heartbreaking to see them blown off the stage by Reverend Horton Heat.
But this album is a masterpiece, although I like Louder Than Love a bit more and Ultramega OK just as much, this album will always be a paradigm shift for me musically.
Long Live the Knight's of the Sound Table!

The perfect " sit in your room until it goes dark" while hitting the bong by yourself and remembering heavy shit song.

Anyone who has met me and looked into my eyes will get why I always got a kick out of this song's title and so did my buddies back then.

Until recently what this forum was doing...

Sitting here like uninvited company
Wallowing in my own obscenities
I share a cigarette with negativity
Sitting here like wet ashes
With X's in my eyes and drawing flies
Bathed in perspiration drowned my enemies
Used my inspiration for a guillotine
I fire a loaded mental cannon to the page
Leaning on the pedestal that holds my self denial
Firing the pistol that shoots my holy pride
Sitting here like wet ashes
With X's in my eyes, and drawing flies
Hey what you yelling
About, conditions, permission, mirrored self affliction
Hey what you yellin' about sadist's
Co-addiction, perfect analogies
hey what you yellin' about conditions
permission mirrored self affliction
Leaning on the pedestal that holds my self denial
Firing the pistol that shoots my holy pride
Sitting here like wet ashes with X's in my eyes
And drawing flies
