the shameful sounds of youth


this week's assignment:

in your childhood, there were a lot of terrible bands that you probably really loved. you might be old enough to remember actual vinyl hissing and popping out your cherished songs. you might remember messing with the needle to replay the one song on the lp that you really love over and over again. you might remember staying up to listen to the hot hits on the local radio station with a blank cassette tape loaded into the boombox, ready to record your favorite song. you may even remember making a mix tape with ACTUAL TAPES and either giving it to your crush or shamefully keeping it in a shoebox wishing you had the balls to give it to them (*single tear*).

This week, post songs from your past. Dig deep and find the songs of your youth. Picture yourself with a bad haircut and giant glasses and imagine what that kid was listening to at the time. Try to remember the logos of the bands that you wrote on your folders at school.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
