i once heard the afghan whigs in a "wet seal." kind of weird.
as far as sad songs go (maybe a bit late on this topic) i'd have to say,
without a doubt "katy song" by red house painters. the lyrics, the music,
the plaintive, yearning cry that permeates the last 3 or so minutes of the
song until kozelek's voice becomes an instrument of pure saddening,
heart-wrenching pain.
richard buckner's "song of 27."
almost anything else by the aforementioned rhp.
chocolate genius' "my mom"
fuck's "shotgun hours"
silkworm's "dremate", "oh how we laughed", and "yen + janet forever"
(and i would have to agree with think (let . . .), though i'm not over my
grudge with lou barlow yet)
anybody else here like buckner, or anything else i mentioned in here?
