Periods like now when you want to rip someone's head off is the perfect time to put headphones and let the soothing balm known as music take over. Logic would dictate to reach for your Ben Howard or VAULTS or other beautiful calming sounds as such, but no, we (and apparently scientific studies!) say play the loudest song from Royal Blood, Marilyn Manson and so on... You know what? Don't bother, we did the hard work of choosing for you already. Just crank up the volume and relax...
The Kills' ' Fried My Little Brain's opening alone feels like honey on our souls. We think it's the best song to open this Top 5, because it just sets the mood for the whole theme. Not too loud, not to heavy, right lyrics and perfect attitude. We love you The Kills. | |
Just the lyric "and a bullet with your name on it" just makes us feel much better. This song is one big shut the fuck up to whoever is causing you this grief. No icing on the cake, no unnecessary niceness, one honest and direct FUCK YOU and that is why we love Royal Blood and why 'Out of the Black' holds a particular loving place in our hearts. | We don't know about you, but we'd love someone who'd kill at our command and asked no question too. Does that make us a psycho? Maybe. But we blame society. And let's not be scared of words here, it's a kill or be killed world is it not? We will not be broken by them. We have Muse on our side |
There is no way to go wrong with Marilyn Manson when we're talking about angry music. This one tune is very close to our heart, especially these days. Never have truer words been sung. Now, we are not condoning murder, of course not, but we understand the deeper meaning of the song. It's (sometimes!) better to sing it than act upon it right? Right?? | |
