I like to do that with great albums. I'll listen to the whole thing, just, over and over and over again. Until I've got pretty much the whole thing memorized. Then I go on to another one. I'll only do it that way if the whole album is banging, though.
Past examples include:
- Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
- My Morning Jacket - Circuital
- Wu-Tang Clan - Enter the 36 Chambers
- Kendrick Lamar - Good Kid Maad City (& DAMN)
- RadioHead - Kid A (& OK Computer)
- Jeff Tweedy - Warm
- The Tragically Hip - Day For Night
EDIT: couldn't find the full Tweedy Album, so just linked my favorite song from it
I loathe trunk or treat. It's not the same as trick or treating, it's cheating. When I was young the only way I got a bunch of candy was to run all over the neighborhood, and then run to the other neighborhoods to squeeze in more. I was out and about, acting the fool, where chicanery abounds. I'd end up at home, exhausted at the end of the night.
Today's kids walk around a parking lot. It's just not the same.
When we were kids halloween was the best. As an adult, there was nothing more I looked forward to than handing out candy, seeing costumes, scaring some kids with all my decorations. But now it's all sanitized and boiled down into the something as ludicrous as walking around a parking lot asking for handouts from cars. What, are they just prepping the nations children for a life of panhandling? Joking aside, it's just not as fun for anyone involved. I don't want to drive somewhere and decorate the fucking trunk of my car (especially when I decorated my house already?), and the kids don't want to walk around a parking lot!
Trunk or treat is the worst solution to a problem that doesn't exist.
