Ozzy Keeps Going
Ozzy Ozzbourne is releasing a new album, because even though musicians seem to be dying literally every week he is the least healthy of all of them but is somehow immortal. He seemed on death’s door and couldn’t talk like 30 years ago but is still kicking and releasing music. Definitely made some sort of deal with the devil.
Album of The Week
Ten - Pearl Jam (1991)
“Even flow, thoughts arrive like butterflies
Oh, he don’t know, so he chases them away
Oh, someday yet, he’ll begin his life again”
“Clearly, I remember picking on the boy
Seemed a harmless little fuck”
A debut album released at the start of the 90’s that I think helped to shape what would become the sound of the 90’s. This album began an era of rock music with gravel and melancholy in strong vocals that would be often imitated but seldom matched. The album wasn’t an immediate success and took over a year to climb to the top of the charts since the band couldn’t hire any Instagram influencers to help the songs get more impressions. Most of the songs were instrumentals that Vedder wrote lyrics for afterwards, his explanation of the lyrics on the album: "All I really believe in is this fucking moment, like right now. And that, actually, is what the whole album talks about."
Best New Track: A Poem
“songs are just commercials for awful, ugly people who want your money, your attention, and all of your love”
Tennessee
“She wanted to settle down
I’m a fool
I stayed around”
(joe gets kicked out of school for using) drugs with friends (but says this isn't a problem)
“Hangovers feel good when I know it’s the last one
Then I feel so good that I have another one”
You Only Live Once
“Sit me down, shut me up
I’ll calm down and I’ll get along with you”
