album of the day, #1

Posted on July 30th, 2007 in Albums of the Day, music by dja

the album of the day today is skinny puppy’s the process. dudez, remember this album?? omg i had basically forgotten about it
 until last week when i was drinking a bunch of rum and remembered how back when i was like, 17 i used to drink booze and listen to “cult” on repeat. i used to know every single word to that song foreralz. basically it has some of the greatest lyrics of any song ever in existence. it is ttly all about heroin. OH and also it was featured in one of the greatest movie + music scenes EVER in the movie suburbia when that one babe starts chugging hard liquor in a helpless i’m-about-to-relapse-into-a-hardcore-alcoholic-again type of way while everything goes to slow motion and the gang splits up and goes their separate ways. i always thought if the movie ended there it would be the most perfect movie ever made. anyways. here’s to you kEVIN cEY and nivek OgRe or however the hell you spell/pronounce your weirdo names. also, the rest of the songs on the album are awesome too.

skinny puppy – “cult”:

“a lasting moment to hold onto with regret the scent of time tried and tested i never noticed the phantoms of her mind crescent moon i’m cutting through paste up warnings fill the sky smoking embers i remember time and time again to try to live i light to sink within her i think of light time to blame to borrow from your past elapsed collapsing she’s not insane she’s gone insane and if the root of silence pulls me off and love is lost not from my heart i sit upon this throne that throws me off and she falls backward to the floor and forward to the back she says elapses all my truth again she’s the one i live for i live alone burns inside horribly she lifts me to the spirit burns the darkest hours my corrupt brain is hurting once again the door lies quiet left alone i’m thinking of her sitting the burning clock of time”
