Who I Think Rachel Elizabeth Dare is Listening to (EXTREMELY BIASED EDITION)

Regina Spektor (fellow new-yorker, matches her twee vibe, extremely heavy on this)

Fiona Apple (She’s just a girl)

Kate Bush (She has that 70s/80s vibe about her)

Fleetwood Mac/Stevie Nicks (same reason as above)

Franz Ferdinand (Twee)

Belle & Sebastian (TWEE TO THE MAXX)

Pulp (Sneak, but I don’t gaf)

The Cranberries (Also sneak, but I got to represent the motherland)

Florence + the Machine (Serving Manic-Pixie-Dream-Girl realness, also ginger)

Sufjan Stevens (IDK she’s chill like that)

Mazzy Star (Because I know she collects crystals)

Katy Perry (Guilty pleasure)

Like i said this is extreamly biased and mainly full of my favorite artists, But me and Rachel are basically the same person so it’s all good!

The Original Broadway cast of Ragtime performs on the 1998 Tony Awards

“The sound of distant thunder Suddenly starting to climb... It was the music: Of something beginning, An era exploding, A century spinning In riches and rags, And in rhythm and rhyme. The people called it ragtime... Ragtime! Ragtime! Ragitme!��

I made a Playlist for my Dabi wip but I fear the vibes have changed a bit I may have to rework it

Dopo otto anni da A Natural Disaster gli Anathema tornano a far parlare di sé con un album avvolgente e omogeneo che ricalca le impronte già calpestate da A Fine Day to Exit. Fin dalla prima canzone si sente che le voci di Vincent e Daniel sono un filo più lontane dal passato; sono più pulite, si sono liberate del proprio timbro e spesso si uniscono reciprocamente in cori luminosi e liberatori. Fin da subito riemergono le chitarre elettriche, la sezione d’archi e un climax che raggiunge l’apice un paio di volte assicurando all’ascoltatore un’ottima opening track. "Summer Night Horizon" crea una veloce ballata quasi electro-rock dove voce e piano sono gli elementi caldi del songwriting mentre la batteria, per quanto suonata live, vuol citare il mondo british-rave dei Chemical Brothers. Certo, questa sorellina innocente dei Prodigy non urla allo scandalo dei costumi ma rappresenta una delle varie corde di tensione del mondo degli Anathema; le seconde voci di Lee Douglas (ormai in pianta stabile come ugola femminile della band) ci ricordano le novità che i nostri fecero con "Pariesienne Moonlight", "Balance" e, soprattutto, con l’album precedente. Ancora, con la successiva "Dreaming Light" i nostri sembrano rifugiarsi nei sicuri rifugi dei due album precedenti, componendo brani che non si discostano dallo stile di qualche anno; magari insistono sulle orchestrazioni e sulla capacità – forse un po’ paracula – di creare delle melodie pazzesche e funzionanti. Ora più che mai si sentono i ricordi di "Flying". Ma, se talvolta anche "Leave no Trace" può apparire sullo sfondo di queste composizioni, la cosa più lampante è che ora, nel 2010, gli Anathema sono una band solare, che ha attinto dai Coldplay, dai Sigur Ròs, dai Portishead e dai Mazzy Star; e non solo dalle frenesie malinconiche a senso unico dei Radiohead. Il pianoforte è lo strumento portante che fa da collante fra i vari brani e, se a volte, Vincent e Lee sembra vogliano duettare sui palchi più rosei e zuccherosi della festa dell’amore o della marcia per la pace, bisogna ammettere che sono convincenti. Certo, se avete voglia di fare un piantino nella vostra solitudine, così per poi sentirvi meglio, mettete su "Angels among Us", dove le chitarre alla Pink Floyd spolverano gli stessi Anathema del 1999-2001. "A Simple Mistake" è un brano che avrebbe potuto far parte di Eternity o Judgement e, se lo fosse stato, per l’occasione di We’re here because we’re here lo avrebbero ri-registrato dandogli la veste attuale; così per dire che è il brano più legato alla vecchia-nuova maniera della nostra band e si lega particolarmente a "Get Off Get Out"; queste due tracce ci mostrano una band che ha ascoltato tanto Deadwing dei Porcupine Tree facendoci ascoltare un delizioso saliscendi in chiave prog-rock. Steven Wilson ha anche mixato l'album e dato il benvenuto nella stessa label Koch Records (che tra le altre cose distribuisce anche Antimatter e Opeth) Con "Universal" e "Hindsight", gli Anathema chiudono il loro album approcciandosi più sulla gravosità sonora ma senza mai andare a capofitto nell’oscurità; al massimo si sono posizionati all’ombra autunnale di un albero; tutto il classico panorama a noi caro si fonde, ancora una volta, con il post-rock dei tardi Talk Talk e dei Sigur Ròs.

Per chi, come me, ha adorato fin all’inverosimile gli Anathema, questo è stato un meraviglioso disco di bentornati. Anche ora che sto scrivendo questa intervista, al risentire queste sonorità, il timbro vocale di Vincent e di Lee mi riportano con la testa al 2001-2002 e quegli anni dove per la prima volta le sonorità che prediligevo iniziavano ad ammorbidirsi. L’impressione è che, soprattutto con "Weather System", i nostri non abbiano saputo fare niente altro di diverso, rinunciando alla sperimentazione (non per forza richiesta eh), ma anche alla freschezza compositiva e al loro punto di forza più alto, cioè quello che creare ottime melodie e, questa volta noi siamo stati messi da anni nella condizione di richiederle !

I LOVE MY LOCAL LIBRARY

checked out 20 CDs today and 20 movies and got my library card renewed and also got an octavia butler book (kindred)

im trying to reduce my use of spotify and so im working on expanding my actual media library, im gonna burn some physical copies and then just download the rest. very overjoyed. found most of my favorite albums and its just very rad to have physical copies of them. i want to directly support some artists by like buying their stuff on bandcamp or buying cds from their merch sites, but most of the albums i got are from pre 2000 or are by people i dont really want to support financially, or their all just dead. or its the beatles and cmon they do NOT need any of my money!!

Bengan oneshot - Confession

Ask and you shall receive! <3

Logan likes stars. Ben knows this. Ben likes music. Logan knows this.

They liked to go out stargazing together, listening to songs like Stardust by Nat King Cole, Fade Into You by Mazzy Star, Strange Time by Matt Maltese, and whatever else Ben felt like putting in the queue. Logan wasn't too picky about what kind of music they listened to. And besides, Ben had good music taste.

"Play that song we were listening to last night! Um, what was it..?" Logan tapped his fingers on the telescope, thinking. "♪And then I go and spoil it all by saying something-♪"

Ben cut him off by tapping on his shoulder and signed "Something Stupid?"

Logan nodded. "Ya! That one!"

Ben nodded and pulled out his phone. In all honesty, he didn't want Logan to sing along to it. Just imagining him saying the words 'I love you', even if not directed at him, was too much for his heart.

Ben liked Logan a lot. But he was bad at expressing this. He's been trying to make it a bit obvious. Lately he's been playing more romantic songs like Can't Help Falling In Love by Elvis Presley, Heart to Heart by Mac DeMarco, and Love Like You from Steven Universe. But Logan didn't seem to be picking up on the hints, which makes everything so much more difficult. Though, he was also kind of grateful. Logan actually knowing Ben liked him scared Ben a lot. Like... a lot, a lot.

Ben got the song playing and Logan looked through his telescope, humming along, murmuring, "♪...I know that there's a chance you won't be leaving with me...♪"

He watched Logan hum and murmur the lyrics, but before the words "I love you" could be said, he tapped on Logan's shoulder.

"Hm? What's up?"

Ben hesitated. What now? He just wanted to stop Logan before he could even mutter out those 3 lyrics. Those 3 words that would buzz through his head and have him repeat multiple fake scenarios that would never happen because how could they ever happen? How could Logan ever say "I love you" to him? Stupid, stupid brain.

Ben though before he signed, "What constellations are out?"

Logan smiled a little disappointedly. "Sadly, I can't tell. It's pretty cloudy tonight. But I can see a planet! Come check it out!"

Ben peaked through and saw a very bright object in the sky. Before he would've assumed it was just a really bright star. But due to spending so much time with Logan, he's gotten better at telling the differences apart.

"Which planet is that?"

"That's Venus! The most toxic of the planets. Which is ironic because it's named after the Roman goddess, Venus, who was pretty shallow, especially as her Greek counterpart!"

Ben thought about the name. He was really no good at Greek nor Roman mythology. He was more of a Norse mythology enjoyer.

Logan could tell by his face he was struggling to remember which goddess Venus was.

"She was the goddess of love!" Logan told him, causing Ben's shoulders to jump.

Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love....

What kind of weird sign was this? What, are the literal planets now calling him out for his crush!? That's not fair! And it kind of pissed him off a little, but he knew, deep down, that it would be stupid to get aggressive over a planet. Seriously, what kind of person would be like that. If he showed Logan he had anger issues that bad, he'd scare him off for sure. Like, ya, Logan already knows about the anger issues, but he doesn't know their full extent.

Logan nudged Ben a little, smiling at him. "The stars get red and oh, the night's so blue.."

Ben takes a moment to process what's happening, but before he knew it, Logan said the words.

"And then I go and spoil it all by saying something stupid like I love you..."

Ben stands there for a moment, processing this. Logan definitely hadn't directed that at him... No way.

Ya.. Logan looking at him expectantly, eyes big, blushing was all just Ben's imagination... definitely...

Logan clenches his fists and awkwardly turns away and Ben jumps, waving his arms to get his attention again before signing, "Frank Sinatra is pretty great, right?"

Logan gives him this weird look before sighing. "Ya. He is.."

They both look at the sky and Ben hesitates. He's doing something wrong. He did something wrong. He could tell by Logan's face. And Ben had a feeling what it was. But he had trouble being able to say it. How could he? Could he really be deserving to try and confess to anyone without actually saying it? Would that even count as a real confession?

He thinks for a moment before deciding "screw it" and grabbing his phone and frantically typing into Spotify the song he wants.

The song Yesterday by The Beatles began to play. Logan glanced curiously at Ben and Ben looked at him before sitting down on the grass. He gestured for Logan to join him, which he did.

Ben stared at him for a moment before finally getting the courage to do it.

He began to sign the lyrics for the song, frantically, scared to make any eye contact with Logan.

"Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play. Now I need a place to hide away.."

He hesitates on some of the lyrics, but he feels he got the message across... hopefully.

Once the song comes to a slow end, Ben tightly closes his eyes, waiting for Logan to say something. But he didn't. So Ben looked up, greeted to the site of Logan tearing up.

"What are you trying to tell me with this...?"

Ben hesitates, wanting to reach over, to wipe away his tears and tell him he doesn't need to cry.

"I'm in love with you, Logan," he signs. "But I don't feel I could be worthy. You don't know me how I used to be. I was so much more worthy of love back then. Now I'm not."

"You stupid-!" Logan exclaimed. "I don't care who you used to be! What, you got more aggressive? You can't talk? Who cares!? I don't! But don't push me away!"

Ben sits there, stunned, and Logan realizes what he said and shyly hunches his shoulders, blushing from embarrassment. "Sorry for yelling... But you get what I'm trying to say, right..?"

Ben hesitates, fidgeting nervously before slowly nodding.

Logan sighs. "'Yesterday' you may have been someone different.. but that doesn't matter because you are who you are now. I've changed too."

Ben looks down. Logan has changed. He's more confident, he's stronger, too.

"But you changed for the better."

"It's all a matter of perspective. I know a couple of guys who think I've changed for the worse because now they can't pick on me. And I may not have known who you used to be, but... you were bound to grow into who you are now because of it."

Before Ben could sign back a response, Logan took his hand into his.

"You grew into someone I love..."

Ben freezes. His heart freezes. His brain freezes. Time itself freezes.

Logan likes Ben. Ben never knew this.

Ben likes Logan. Logan always knew this.
