I’ve been listening to a lot of Slaughter Beach, Dog recently. They are a great band, if you haven’t heard of them. They do a lot of spoken word songs which I find incredibly interesting and cool and I’m kind of obsessed with. I’m impressed by the bravery of essentially setting a poem to music. It feels incredibly vulnerable — sometimes I don’t know if I’m cringing or if what I’m listening to is just breaking down some sort of wall between listener and artist that makes me a bit uncomfortable. I’m not even sure if what I’m listening to is “good”. It’s noteveryone’s cup of tea, for sure, but it certainly is mine :)
I’m wondering if any of you guys feel this way about something?
