I'm going to take moment out the talk on relationships and 'sugaring' and instead talk about music.
I typically like to listen to whole albums. I don't know why this is but it's something I've done since I was a teenager. I've always wanted to hear more than what's popular.
Now of course doing this you typically run into that 'one' song that you wonder why it was even put on the album. Sometimes there could be two of those. Other times it can be the whole rest of the album other than that one song that's popular but I think that's rare.
Lately I've been listening to two albums. One as a re-acquaintance with it, the other as simple interest.
The re-acquaintance is with a band called I Mother Earth and the album is Dig. It's a very 90's sounding album but I think it's a good album overall. The sound is sort of hard rock jazzy with influences from Pink Floyd. The group is Canadian and I recently heard they got back together. Unfortunately Spotify doesn't have their other album on there yet. Hoping it does soon.
The other one is the latest from The Red Hot Chili Peppers - The Getaway. Now I'm not a huge fan but I do like some of their songs. I've always had difficulty getting through one of their albums as well. This is actually the first I'm able to listen to start to finish. Yes there is at least one song on there I could do without but it's not that bad.
Out of the albums of theirs I've listened to I'd say this is their most diverse sounding album they've put out. I'm a sucker for that kind of thing. I like when groups experiment and try different things out.
One song particular that I've really come to like is the last song on the album - Dreams of a Samurai. It's quite a tune. It's also got a wacky timing 8/5 for those who might like that kind of thing. Apparently Anthony (lead singer) had difficulty figuring out how to sing to it. It's a great song though.
Anyway, so for anyone who likes RHCP I would highly recommend giving the whole album a listen.
I need to find new albums now.
