Curt McGirt Posted September 11, 2024 Posted September 11, 2024 (edited) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSR7_aR2VhI Note: It's entirely coincidental that this song popped into my head on 9/11 of all days. This is a day of mourning so no need to bring politics in here, but it's stuck in my head, and I don't know why. And of course, Youtube won't even allow me to listen to it. I give you the pressingly dark and melodic "Generals" by GBH, the highest these mindless spikeheads ever leapt. Lyrics: Spoiler This means war... We'll lead you into victory, you hear the generals say. Never look behind you, we're with you all the way. Go to bed early, conserve your energy, tomorrow we'll be fighting with our enemy. Polish your boots, clean your gun, killing those bastards will be a lot of fun. Take no prisoners, kill them all. Start to march when you hear the call. Britain needs you, Britain needs you .. Britain needs you to die for her. Marching into victory, marching in the mud. Fighting for freedom, fighting in th eblood. There's dead bodies all around, you're told to carry on. Death is not right, war cannot be won. March along you see a flash, fall to the ground and make a splash. You awake you're lying in the bed, eyes are shut you think you're dead. Lost your arm, you've lost your leg, lost you're job, you'll have to beg. You'll get loads of sympathy, a picture in the Evening Post. But where were the generals when you needed them most ?

Curt McGirt Posted December 10, 2024 Posted December 10, 2024 (edited) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1PceyvqBlg Spoiler I had wrists donning slits Flowing constantly My broken body in a wreck Wrapped around a tree A crosswalk hit and run The finish line for me People clutter in the gutter Take a look and see No escaping pain You belong to me Clinging on to life By the skin o' my teeth No escaping pain You belong to me Clinging on to life By the skin o' my teeth My blood flows through the streets Deluge from the wounds Empty jars of sleeping pills On the dresser in my room My wet-brain neighbor cranes His neck to see In time, the white lights, a train Bearing down on me No escaping pain You belong to me Clinging on to life By the skin o' my teeth No escaping pain You belong to me Clinging onto life By the skin o' my teeth I won't feel the hurt I'm not trash any longer That that doesn't kill me Only makes me stronger I need a ride to the morgue That's what 911 is for So tag my toe and don't forget Ooh, to close the drawer No escaping pain You belong to me Clinging on to life By the skin o' my teeth No escaping pain You belong to me Clinging on to life By the skin o' my teeth Just won't leave my head. The lyrics too... lets just say they mean a lot to me right now. This might be interesting to anyone that's been in the metal thread, but I am actually a high voter on Megadeth, though you totally wouldn't think it. Countdown to Extinction, which this is from, was an early purchase on a vacation to Florida in my youth (I had a chance to get Reign In Blood instead. Clearly I am a master of making mistakes in life) so I started with an interest in their stuff that wasn't even really thrash-y. I got Peace Sells and ended up selling it out of youthful elitism, but ended up really loving Rust In Peace when I finally heard it, and came back around on Peace Sells waaaaay later, along with always loving their first record. It's almost like jazz-metal (the bass player WAS a jazz guy). Never got into So Far So Good... So What! but always loved that song on The Decline Part 2. And that's all I've heard. Mustaine might be a controversial figure and I may disagree with him turning into a born-again Christian but you gotta give the man credit for being a totally unique individual in songcraft and vocals. Maybe that's why I've always appreciated him -- he's bizarre, uncompromising, and does not give two fucks what you think about him. EDIT: I'm listening to So Far again and it's pretty solid!

Curt McGirt Posted December 10, 2024 Posted December 10, 2024 (edited) There was another mistake in Florida on vacation, btw. I went through an entire wall of cassette tapes because my folks told me they'd buy me some. I picked out Autopsy - Severed Survival, Cancer - To the Gory End, and Napalm Death - Fear, Emptiness, Despair. When they took one look at the tapes to see what I wanted they told me with clear distaste that I could only pick one, and I decided to get NONE of them, kinda out of protest. They had also given me serious grief for the first Deicide album prior (as in they totally flipped out after reading the lyrics and took the thing back to the store for the money I spent) and that spooked me from buying anything with gross or Satanic lyrics for awhile, so basically I pussed out, so to speak. I later even returned a Broken Hope CD with some of the most disgusting lyrics I've ever read out of fear I'd get busted again. Man, if I had got Severed Survival I would have flipped out. (I've never liked Cancer -- to me they're the definition of second-rate death metal that somehow gets a pass from everyone else -- and I've never even listened to the ND record. Guess it's time to fix that.) Oh, and I later bought through mail order -- guess what -- Severed Survival on tape anyway, along with... Repulsion - Horrified. Man, you wanna talk about a pair of fucking albums to get at the same time... Edited December 10, 2024 by Curt McGirt

My roommate in college burned a copy of it for me and I wore that thing out.

Curt McGirt Posted April 16 Posted April 16 Day late and really a dollar short: "You Learn" by Alanis Morissette is somehow stuck in my fucking head. I didn't hear it anywhere. Why lord, why.
NikoBaltimore Posted July 1 Posted July 1 When it comes to this gem from Metallica no context is needed whatsoever. Halls of justice painted green Money talking Power wolves beset your door Hear them stalking Soon you’ll please their appetite They devour Hammer of justice crushes you Overpower The ultimate in vanity Exploiting their supremacy I can’t believe the things you say I can’t believe I can’t believe the price you pay Nothing can save you Justice is lost Justice is raped Justice is gone Pulling your strings Justice is done Seeking no truth Winning is all Find it so grim So true So real Apathy their stepping stone So unfeeling Hidden deep animosity So deceiving Through your eyes their light burns Hoping to find Inquisition sinking you With prying minds The ultimate in vanity Exploiting their supremacy I can’t believe the things you say I can’t believe I can’t believe the price you pay Nothing can save you Justice is lost Justice is raped Justice is gone Pulling your strings Justice is done Seeking no truth Winning is all Find it so grim So true So real Lady Justice has been raped Truth assassin Rolls of red tape seal your lips Now you’re done in Their money tips her scales again Make your deal Just what is truth? I cannot tell Cannot feel The ultimate in vanity Exploiting their supremacy I can’t believe the things you say I can’t believe I can’t believe the price you pay Nothing can save you Justice is lost Justice is raped Justice is gone Pulling your strings Justice is done Seeking no truth Winning is all Find it so grim So true So real Seeking no truth Winning is all Find it so grim So true So real 1
