Spoiler Losing someone hurts. It doesn't matter how old you are, how many people have gone before you, or how well they lived their lives. It hurts. It's selfish, it's stupid, and it's weak...but goddamn it if it doesn't beat a guy up. Maybe as I get older the losses seem to add up more? I don't know. But knowing I'll never again hear that laugh, that wry sarcasm, that learned wisdom... It leaves a hole that just keeps getting bigger darker and scarier. None of us are getting out of here alive. That doesn't make me hate it any less.
Rock n Roll Amazon song samples I first heard of Rival Sons when the trailer was released for I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell. I liked that song, and the whole album (Before the Fire). I hadn't kept up with them or anything since then, but saw their live show that's running on Palladia right now. New album comes out next week. I like the straight ahead rock - nobody does that much anymore. Very much Led Zeppelin meets the Doors. In the concert footage on Palladia, consistent with old school rock, the lead singer looks like he is wasted out of his mind. I'm assuming that their next album will be a hit, and then he'll overdose.
I don't why I've never listened to these guys before, but I'm really digging this and a lot of their other stuff. Guess I'm just a late bloomer…(or just an old bastard.)
Sometimes you just need to get high and listen to funk music. And in case you're actually high (Crown I'm looking at you), turn the lights off, get way more high, and watch this. You can thank me later.
