Saturday Song to Get Stoned To

SATURDAY SONGS TO CELEBRATE/DENIGRATE LOVE TO: VALENTINE’S DAY THREEFER W/BLACK MOUNTAIN, MY BLOODY VALENTINE, & LAMB OF FUCKING GOD

 Saturday, February 13th, 2010 at 3:10pm by

Maybe your betrothed decided to leave you behind this Valentine’s Day and run off to Europe or Egypt or wherever on their own adventure sans YOU ……..maybe you’re lying next to yr esweetie right now locked in loving embrace/fellatio……..maybe you have no significant other and you’re sitting by yourself concocting a heartattack pizza on the Domino’s website……… Whatever the case may be in this crazy mixed-up world of ours, rest assured your naughty Uncle Kip has selected a few tunes to get the blood flowing in the right direction:

BLACK MOUNTAIN — “Don’t Run Our Hearts Around” from Black Mountain (2005)………a stonery reminder to take care of those vulnerable hearts you love to toy with

MY BLOODY VALENTINE — “Only Shallow” from Loveless (1991)…………seminal shoegazers encourage only the shallowest of romantic encounters

LAMB OF GOD — “Beating on Death’s Door” from Sacrament (2006)…………….the proof is in the banana pudding lyrics (“Be careful what you wish for….you whore….She’s all yours now, so deal with it”) — Randy done had his girlfriend stoled? I have always been struck by the unexpected raw emotion in this song and continue hoping that LoG will someday once again open up like this.

Have a METAL St. Valentine’s Day, wherever you are…

    Beating on Death’s Door is pretty much pure win, distilled into a musical format.

    if you’re REALLY ALONE and still want to thrash out, i humbly suggest Glassjaw’s Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About Silence

    • hyperkulturemia

      Bang on man, that shit got me through a break-up.

      This Love by Pantera and Apocalyptic Love Song by Scarlet are up there for me as well.

    • DustintheWind

      Dude beat me to it… I love that album. “You can lead a whore to water, you can bet she’ll drink and follow orders”

  • Gideon

    I think d. randall blythe isn’t angry at some chick. he seems smarter than that. he’s probably like me, angry at death haha

    • Chris D.

      I wish I were as smart as you.

  • Honeynutzz

    A virgin whore in a dirty wedding dress.

    randy on “beating on death’s door: “I’ve known a lot of people over the years with various substance abuse problems. Specifically, I’ve known a bunch of heroin junkies. None of us have ever been on smack or anything like that or heavy drug usage. But heroin junkies tend to be a rather useless lot. It’s an amalgamation of my experience with several different people who dance with the needle and how pathetic and self-serving it is. ”

    That My Bloody Valentine song is wonderful. The riff is MASSIVE.

    • Sandy n Papo

      awesome song

  • Leroy Pescheur

    nothing lamer than listening to a bunch of losers who don’t have a valentines. i for one will celebrate my eternal solitude. certainly not listening to a bunch of pansies. just pull the trigger already, you’re boring the world with the whining

    My Bloody Valentine is horrid. I had to sit through them in order to see Tool last summer, by the end of their set they had 20 minutes of just noise, like reverb and white noise. I managed to get a couple thousand people to flip them off with me, no exaggerating. One of the most painful moments of my life turned into one of the proudest.

    • Natsquatch

      I’m not familiar with their music, but if you aren’t exaggerating and they really did do that for 20 minutes during a live performance, that’s just not cool.

    • I killed a Dunky

      dude? who told u that Noise is not art? Heroin< Frodus and so on where and will be leaders in the Noise movement, so if u cant handle it then Y even bother to go, thats the good thing about art, some might hate it some might love it, I even posted a MBV vid on my profile on FaceBook lol saying thats the onoy valentinei that I love
