My first impression of Sonic Youth was that they were a Band I Know I'd Love If I Just Explored Them More (BIKILIIJETM)

But then I actually explored them and found that they were a Band I Don't Really Like Despite Being Aesthetically Aligned With Some Of My Tastes (BIDRLDBAAWSOMT)

This reminds me of the time I was reading some old school music mags and they kept using the acronym NWOBHM and I had zero idea what that was about. Took me 3 issues to crack the code.

This was pre-google.

I learned the meaning of this acronym by reading the liner notes to Metallica's Garage Inc. album.

Yes, I own Black Saint and the Sinner Lady and his Ken Burns Jazz compilation. They're both great. Not sure why I've never gone deeper.

50-ish albums is always going to be a tough thing to tackle, but Ah Um makes the most sense here.


Ah, that's a typical jazz discography -- doesn't scare me in the slightest! Mingus will be my deep dive for 2022. You heard it here first.

trag, what boredoms have you listened to?

Very little. There was some Eye stuff back in the early aughts that I really dug, and I checked out whatever stuff Boredums had out at the time. I think there was some massive public drumming thing that I thought was pretty cool?

Honestly I don’t remember what any of it sounds like, only that I’ve grazed on occasion and thought “man I should do a deep dive.”

What album goes down smoothest?


VISION CREATION NEWSUN!!!!

they’re an all-time favorite

Dammit it’s not on Amazon Music. I’ll try Spotify at my office today.

INXS are a consistently good band. I personally love The Swing. And Never Tear Us Apart takes me straight back to puking in the bushes at the athletics after party in year 12. But that's a good thing.

I own Dig, Lazarus, Dig!!! and I really like it, but besides a couple other random songs of his that I've stumbled across (Breathless, O Children) I haven't dug any deeper for some reason.

Same. Like, almost exactly.

My entry to Cave was the original B Sides and Rarities from 2006. Strange start but turned into a love affair for me.

See, I have no problem with this. I know many RM sticklers will cry out "thread integrity!!", but I'm here for the extended and interesting side conversations.

We'll, not to participate, obviously, but I do enjoy reading them.

Skeleton Tree was the album that finally sealed the deal for me on Nick Cave.

Yeah, I particularly love his last 3 albums. Sorry LV, I know you vehemently disagree with my take on this one.
