I Listen to Some Bizarre Stuff…

The older I get, the more full-blown eccentric I become. For example, I still listen to some of the downright weird stuff I liked back in the 1980’s. Worse, I subject the Kid to it. Hey, if he wants to listen to Green Day, he’ll have to drive his own car.

Until then, he’ll have to put up with this:

Kraftwerk:



This is true techno music.

Legendary Pink Dots:



Modern psychedelia. Beautiful, hypnotic and freakin’ weird.

Sisters of Mercy:



Rocking goth. I think part of me will always want to be Andrew Eldritch.

The Cult:



More rocking goth. I remember when this song cleared the dancefloor at Chicago’s Club Medusa in October 1985 for being too “rock”. Ian Astbury continues channeling Jim Morrisson after all these years…

Skinny Puppy:



I still have a Skinny Puppy sticker on my car.

I’m a card-carrying member of the Republican Party. A strong supporter of the NRA. I continue to support President George Bush, the war in Iraq and the Global War on Terror. I am pro-Life, pro-Choice and believe that a strong family is the bedrock of a civilized society.

But I still have a Skinny Puppy sticker on my car. And I love this music.
