Driving around town on a hot day
>throwing up after drinking too much
>>73020512
>the most exhilarating day of your life, like being a 10 year old at a tremendous waterpark, interspersed with quiet and deeply reflective moments on a train or plane
>Laying in bed on a cool night, completely dark in the room, preferably a little tired
>Going on a killing spree while pent up with narcotics
>cracking open a cold one with the boys
driving home the morning after a concert, sun shining, and still feeling the lingering effects of a spiritual acid trip.
>A good summer weekend with friends, parties, and hanging out with that girl (or guy) you've been interested in for awhile.
>Night, on a small local venue, drinking light alcohol, ambient all silent, sitting in a single table with a candle softly lightning the table
>Getting angry because you failed math again
>you're on cocaine in a hotel bathroom in Madrid
>>73021670
nice drug reference
>Going on bike while pedaling really fast and adrenaline kicking in
>a summer cookout/black family reunion.
>>73021610
This is not an album to crack open a cold one with the boys.
>getting your dick sucked in the backseat of a hoopty by a chick with a noticeable gap in her teeth whilst smoking a spliff laced with PCP.
>>73022112
It is when you and your boys are all sad and talking about failed relationships.

You're right.

I feel that fits a lot of Radiohead albums.
Eating a pound of candy laced with MDMA, going on an hazy nighttime adventure across the entire city, and walking home without being harassed once.
Watching the sun rise listening to the birds chirping while you drink tea in order to help recover from last night's trip.

Holy fuck I remember this, pharrell was rlly good around this time

Hip-hop and R&B from the early to mid 2000s were dominated by N*E*R*D/Neptunes production. It was a simple and wonderful time honestly. Pic related.

Going on holiday by yourself.
>You are in an accident and end up in a vegetative state, except your mind is still conscious and aware of time passing. You slowly go insane from isolation, trapped inside your own head.

why do you do these types of things
>thinking about her
why the fuck are half of these descriptions related to drugs? do you faggots know you can experience music without the necessity of getting high of your bollocks?
>>73031903
>many musicians do drugs and it can inform lyrical or musical choices they make
>drugs enhance the experience of listening to music
its not that hard to figure out
>>73031940
That's fine and all but did every musician on earth has done drugs to make half of these descriptions related to them
>>73031903
>high of your bollocks
>you
>being alone and naked in a recording studio with a lot of whiskey
>>73020512
>Going on a road trip through the desert and mountains out west
>Crashing the tour van
>>73031965
that's not nice anon :^(
>>73031955
Maybe not half, but enough for it to be more than insignificant.
But a lot of these descriptions are about the ideal or perfect scenario in which an album would fit. As I said, drugs enhance music. So a good drug and album pairing can create an ideal music listening situation for certain albums.
>>73032016

Walking home late on a winter night in the rain after being at a party where you didn't really talk to anybody and just feel overall lonely.
Riding your bike through old towns, forests, and farms on a sunny summer day.
>So drunk and high you're slipping in and out of consciousness as you wander between futuristic nightclubs at 3AM, with the music turning into a hellish blur as you approach a panicked breakdown

Realizing your best days are behind you and that the present gets no romance.
Suddenly having a bottomless hole open up in the middle of your chest, having all the bad emotions flow there, though you sometimes feel like there's something "warm" hitting you from the outside world, and it's not the sunrays

I remember an anon describing this album, made me listen to it:
>When your spaceship's hyperdrive has Gone out, and you're just floating far far away from civilization, you sit in the observation deck just looking at the black space, the stars, the planets and moons, maybe you see something Strange and possibly alien.
>protesting
>>73020512
I disagree with you dude, I think Salad Days is more of a sitting in the sun during Summer with your boys, smoking some weed and cracking a few cold ones. Especially like the first 5 songs.
American Beauty is the same I reckon, but when specifically when you're 16-17
>>73034369
100% accurate
>>73036065
it sounds fitting for that occasion but the album's sleepy mood fits for the other situation, atleast it did for me

No joke the first time I listened to this was on a flight to Hawaii for a brief (2 day) vacation.
Before you ask, do to family who works for the airline, I fly for free (if seats available).

It's 5PM on a hot August day. Your parents have just finished helping you move into your freshman year dorm and you are giving them a last hug before they head back home. You are starting a new life out on your own. New experiences with friends you are about to meet are in your sight. You are melancholy, but you are about to have the time of your life. This time of your life will be one that you long for later in life, have fun while it lasts.
