RE: The day I heard my heart

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

When my sister, AND my Dad, had their heart attacks, they said for ages it was hard to sleep as they were so conscious of the sound of their hearts. One beats no more, and ours, well, we know it's finite. Every beat is a bonus I guess.

"Every beat, a bonus" sounds like an album title, or some sort of sweat shop for capitalism inspired violence.

Either or.

Now that you are riffing, it also reminds me of the criminal justice bill.

"Emission of a succession of repetitive beats" refers to a phrase from the UK's 1994 Criminal Justice and Public Order Act, which targeted the illegal rave scene by banning music predominantly characterized by a series of repeating rhythmic sounds. The law was an attempt to suppress rave culture and empowered police to shut down events featuring this type of music, but also faced criticism and resistance from artists and activists for its broadness and perceived infringement on personal freedom (wikipedia)

It is funny because other genres of music have louder more annoying things. At least to everyone who tells me that metal is just screaming. They're wrong :P

It is screaming, and classical musical structure, and people barreling into one another (lovingly) in a moshpit.

One person's opera is another person's moshpit or vice verse. I appreciate metal and love that people love it, but it's not my thing anymore. Not that it ever was, but I did love thrash for a whlie and went out with a thrash drummer. Lots of energy. Many mosh bruises. Those were the days. I could scream at jazz, well most of it. Hate it. But then, Miles Davis Kinda Blue? There's some I love. Music is cool.

Music is incredible! I've spent the day listening to The Last Dinner Party, and am now currently going through the playlists I made of concerts I went to and letting those memories sit with me. :)

Nice! I"m sitting with mems of Eddie Current Suppression Ring. Jarrah went and saw them play free at Fed Square last week and they're playing a few gigs around. I mean there's tons of good garage bands as good as them but jesus, they were awesome on stage. Electric. We saw them three times so we don't need to miss out now.
