If you think my title is homophobic I don't even want to share the internet with you. Make a thread asking albums that help men cope towards
their sexual proclivities or insecurities.
Young straight men have their own unique obstacles hindering optimal development. If you're not a single man you can't understand but no reason to specify here.
I specifically say Rock because hip hop imo preys on the insecure, abused and children of single mothers. Materialism is gold. Whenever I see a white kid blasting I'm distracted by his insecurity. Then think about how much he hates his father or the absence of one. And in the end, honest empathy.
And I ask for men because some music speaks louder to straight men just as powerful as gay men to Cher and women to Taylor Swift or Beyonce (I don't know lol)
Anyway,
When I say Quadraphenia you say?(it's an album by The Who released in 1973 and later a film about it in 1979...watch it alone for how ridiculous Sting's character is and how much say did he have?��
'Reign love over me' is probably only song most casual fans could recognize. MAYBE 5:15 as well.(inside outside leave me alone...inside outside nowhere is home)
My lucky 7 songs that get me that are:
Cut My Hair, The Dirty Jobs, Dr. Jimmy, Pink & the Godfather!!!, Helpless Dancer, I'm One and Is it in my Head?
Only weak song is I am the Sea opener but that's just like ocean sounds.
and yes this album liberated me more than any other. The musical styling reminds me a lot like Blunderbuss and Lazaretto by Jack White(they might as well be one great double album)
John Entwhistle is my favorite most influential bassist. I usually find instrumentless vocalists to be kind of queens. But God damn! This album is the best of Roger Daltry. Such wide range outside of high pitch squealing. He do songs like a pissed off kid who lost all of his strong make role models in WW2(sad reality of children born in Europe during 1930-1940) The civilian casualties that occurred in that war are not spoken about enough. It's so tragic. Just because you weren't in a concentration camp or Russian gulag(way more than 9 million died in these, doesn't get much attention for some reason... didn't make you much safer...
Other nominations:
Siamese Dream - Smashing Pumpkins(even though Gish is much more enjoyable for me)
Ritual De Lo Habitual - Jane's Addiction. The message is twisted but the sound is freedom
Blunderbuss & Lazaretto - Jack White. Two albums. Powerful pop-rock with some powerful lyrics(Love Interruption, Hypocritical Kiss, Would you fight for my love? & Mixing Pieces)
Hello Nasty - Beastie Boys Not a popular album but as a 7th grader picking this album up at an Ames department store changed my year. Very instrumental album and obviously silly rhymes. Can defiantly boost a young teen's confidence
Ladies and Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space -Spirtitualized
Other than I think I'm in Love the lyrics aren't very powerful but the sounds created can change your life. Jason Pierce is a tortured genius. Without him there's no Spacemen 3. Without Keith Richards there's no one to compare him to(it's not because they sound anything alike)
Loveless - My Bloody Valentine is definitely more likely to cope with depression more than any SSRI.
The boundaries designed by our rulers hitching monkey wrenches around the pipes of cultural masculine energy and it's getting tough out there for young men trying to establish their independence and place in society. H
Brothers, help your younger brothers out here....and please no need to refute my hip hop comment.here
For record I'm 31 culturally is 50, emotionally is 24 and physically about 31.
