Song Recommendation: Act 4- First Love / Late Spring / Mitski

“One word from you and I would jump off of this ledge I’m on, baby.”

Album recommendations: Act 3- Norman Fucking Rockwell! / Lana Del Rey

I’ve been listening to this album pretty much nonstop since it came out. I hadn’t listened to LDR until this album came out just because I hadn’t gotten around to it, but I’m glad I checked out this album. It’s sad, but sometimes sad is comforting. I feel like I needed this album when it came out. If you like sad songs about shitty guys breaking your heart- definitely check it out.

Song recommendation: Act 2- Big Lie / Joyce Manor

Having an off day and this song is cheering me up.

Album Recommendations: Act 1 – Morbid Stuff / PUP

Just before writing Shan’s story, I listened to Morbid Stuff, an album by PUP on my record player. I listened to it all the way through and it struck a chord deep inside me. I related to it on a personal level to the point I knew I had to write something about it. When the album ended, I turned the record over and listened again, typing urgently. I wouldn’t necessarily call myself a nihilist, but I have my moments. And this album brought those moments out.

I recommend listening in full, but my favorite track off it is the second track Kids.

Song/Album/Artist Recommendations: Act 0 – introduction

I want to try this out. If you know anything about me, you know how much music means to me. It got me through high school, it’s getting me through college, multiple heartbreaks- basically anything could be fixed by the right album. At least for me. So, I figured, this is my website, I should let you guys get to know me ~through music~

I won’t always do a big, long post about how meaningful the recommended song/album/artist is, but I will when it’s needed!

Today is just introductions, though, the next post will be about a specific band. For now, I’ll leave you with a link to my playlist I made of songs that hold special places in my heart- some of which will probably be featured in the future.

This isn’t me becoming a music review blog, it’s just an occasional addition to my currently lacking website. It will mostly be songs that were inspired by writings I’ve posted!

Here’s that playlist I mentioned:
