Gaggle wounds, lunatic swoon
A moment ache, cancerous shake
Burning lust, filling the cup
Beating back tears, tearing up
Our visions come to life
The world deserves to die
Shock takes hold, a gentle choke
Bones grind bone, wet skin's cold
Meag rubbed with salt, suck suck suck
Broken necks neck, lick the stroke
Of the sighs, come sweet ills tonight
An innocent kiss turns to lust
I've got a genocidal crush...
Tuesday, July 25: Beastmilk, "The Wind Blows Through Their Skulls"
Beastmilk was even more overt in their ‘80s college rock worship than Deftones, as “The Wind Blows Through Their Skulls” was full-on in its homage to Echo and the Bunnymen and the Psychedelic Furs, though the vocals were more in the Volbeat zone when they went for the high notes. And just like Volbeat, the group’s sense of fun permeated every note, from the rolling and tumbling grooves to the self-aware moody and goth vibe. Beastmilk played around with a slightly campy horror aesthetic alongside the ‘80s modern rock pastiche, and while it didn’t make for as original a listen as they might’ve thought, it was highly entertaining nonetheless.
i was wondering if you had any music recommendations. i really enjoy your chainsaw man posts that include albums the characters would like.
take care!
hello anonymous; this is abbreviated research from going through music that i think yuko would like (because some of it has been out of my comfort zone, i:m mostly just content to listen to the same few soundtracks over-and-over for years), so here are some singles i think she would like: "blood," off of slow warm death, by slow warm death; "assisted harakiri," off of i became birds, by home is where; "supernaut," off of supernaut, by 1000 homo DJs; "cover 200," off of weaponize your dreams, by general dynamics; "dear friend who watches me sleeping," off of halloween v, by billy cobb; "strawberry milk," off of eat more chicken, by greens on toast; "satan", off of everybody:s baby (or 11/22), by john galm; "tired of living and scared of dying," off of sophomore, by negative xp; "a daisy chain 4 satan," off of confessions of a knife, by my life with the thrill kill kult; "love you to death," off of october rust, by type o negative
^ i think this is roughly her palette, sort of mentally divided up into day/night temperatures (the warmer bittersweet garagey stuff; the colder alienated industrial stuff), and kept within a mental "yuko quadrant" (ie, not the asa quadrant -- which (although i don:t think she would listen to music, so it:s a hypothetical "if a asa who didn:t listen to music eventually started to be introduced to music") is more femcel than yuko:s incel, and would probably like bands like MCR and mountain goats (this would be on the border of her traits) and lana del rey); also not the yoru quadrant, which would probably lean into stuff like iperyt, gaza, young and in the way -- but they:d share a border with stuff like early swans and stuff like NIN would be biased edge-cases (NIN would share three edges of the quadrant, though); or a loose santa claus quadrant, which is just mostly where i dump things that are too folk, slow, noise, or blackmetal-y)
here:s another picture; take care, chief
editing this in: i forgot the median between the day/night, which would be stuff like beastmilk (my example track for this would be "fear your mind" off of climax) or some black sabbath (probably paranoid), maybe thin lizzy (black rose) or mercyful fate (time) -- but i haven:t listened to these much yet because i:ve been having more fun exploring industrial stuff lately
