ITT Movies and albums that have the same feeling
For example VU & Nico goes together right well with the depravity and general listlessness in trainspotting.
Or maybe Loveless goes well with Lost In Translation because shoegaze.

seconding velvet underground as trainspotting. trainspotting is one of my favorite films and has such a good fucking soundtrack, lou reed fits well. So does Iggy Pop though

So my girlfriend just gave me her Fender banjo, but I don't know the first thing about banjos.
Is there anything I should know about general care, maintenance, or beginner tips?

Let me start by saying arcade fire is not one of my favorite band by any means. In fact when i did meet the lead singer of Man Man, a band i actually love, (after a show in ATX) i couldn't even get the words out and just sounded like a dumb fangirl.
It's 2012 and according to the timeline of Reflektor, they've been working on this album for a year now and of course it is going to be released in 2013, but nobody knew obviously.
I was a jaded sophomore at the university of Texas at Austin fresh out of being kicked out of Pre-Med. I switched to philosophy and was at the peak of my depression and existentialism and the angsty struggle for meaning in life. I found solace in Kierkegaard and the process philosophers, who saw the fundamental atoms of the universe not to be atoms, but rather the all encompassing zen of a moment. We are not atoms strung along by physics, but by a strange cosmic force (god?!?) whose "career" breeds ours in the form of the "micro-careers" that are basically the experiences that make up our lives.
SO, Arcade Fire was giving a free talk on campus about Haiti and their philanthropy work there and assured us that they would not be playing any songs (they lied => https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-hhotCQuqk)
I was depressed enough to believe them and clearly not in the loop and after about 2 hours of drivel about haiti this and haiti that i just fucking left in the middle.
Then something weird happened, as I was hopping out of the rows of seats, i look up at the main singer (Win Butler) who was sulking in his seat for the entirety of the talk, (perhaps jaded by his circlejerking fanbase of normalfags) I saw him perk up and inquisitively stare at me.
"Our age is essentially one of understanding and reflection, without passion, momentarily bursting into enthusiasm, and shrewdly relapsing into repose. ... There is no more action or decision in our day than there is perilous delight in swimming in shallow waters."

Apparently this Kierkegaard essay inspired Reflektor and I cannot stress how perfectly and eerily it describes the moment we had.
When I listen to the title track reflecktor, It IS that moment.
We shared a mundane and profound moment, a simultaneous sense of boredom in this rapid vapid age of instahappiness. But that's all it was. it was a really boring normal moment and clearly something that is rare nowadays. We reflected off each other, one of us, made in the limelight, famous, and the other a penniless bitter loaner. But we felt the same and THAT is where the magic of this song happens for me.
I like to think that song is objectively about that moment. It's probably not, but we both grew up in the Woodlands TX so i think we both have a jaded view of normalfags, but are willing to appease them. Him with his music, me other ways.
It all just adds up for me and i don't care if you don't believe me, the timing of the album and everything. I like to believe Win butler seeing just one millennial not gobbling his cock gave him some hope.
i leave you with some lyrics to support my story from the title track reflektor:
We fell in love, alone on a stage
In the reflective age
I thought, I found the connector
It's just a reflektor (It's just a reflektor)
Now, the signals we send, are deflected again
We're still connected, but are we even friends?
If this is heaven
I need something more
Just a place to be alone
'Cause you're my home
Just a reflektor
Just a reflektor
Just a reflektor
Will I see you on the other side?
It's just a reflektor

Great band, them and the Postcard Records roster in general.
I'd also recommend checking out bands on the NME C86 compilation or otherwise connected to the scene

The 70s section only has three worthwhile albums. The 10s section has five. IV and Paranoid haven't aged that well, and I say this as a big fan of Sabbath having seen them of their most recent tour.

>>69914786
4 foot
height doesn't matter as much in the real world as the bullies on 4chan would have you believe
you can be very successful in music or any other field as long as you work hard and have no regrets
believe it!

>>69914804
t. manlet
6'2" and up. Don't bother making music unless you're that height or above.
