CNAAAWDS AUTISTIC SONGBLOG
This is the place where I listen to songs that move me so much that I need to get my thoughts out about them. I'm a huge nerd when it comes to music so expect absolutely biohazardous levels of nerdslop on this page.
You can find me on spotify by clicking here, or you can find me on last.fm by clicking here instead. Or both! Wow!
PLAYLIST OF THE PRESENT
sometimes I make playlists. sometimes they're featured.
you'd check it out if you really loved me.
HUMANE(E) MEAT (THE FLENSING OF SANDOR KATZ) by PROPAGHANDI- Good fuck this is a good song. It is beautifully and succinctly contained in just under three minutes as a dark satire, a direct response, a piece of modern art, a sick ass guitar riff, and a banging tune all in one. They're so emotive in both voice and guitar, I love it, it reminds me of a dark fantasy 80's He-Man-esque cartoon. |

LOVE ME NORMALLY by WILL WOOD AND THE TAPEWORMS- This song makes me feel horrible horrible things about being transexual and autistic attempting to date in todays social scene. Apologising to my partner that I am so abnormal compared to them, asking them to let me try and play pretend the happy housepet. |
STRAY DOG by AMIGO THE DEVIL- I am the stray dog in this song. Trying to convince him that it's okay to be autistic and he doesn't need to push himself to be as normal as possible to have worth in himself. God what a beautiful song, Danny Kiranos knows like no other how to sing feelings of being othered. |
MUSIC FOR TEENAGERS by HARLEY POE- Even though I'm not a teenager anymore I still love this song like it's a piece of my soul. Every verse of this song connects to me in such a guttural way, Joe lived the experience of being a fucking weirdo surrounded by social zombies and now I get to live it while listening to his music about it. |
SMOKE BREAKS by DADDY AND THE LONG LEGS- As a smoker this song hurts. I picked up smoking socially, and these lyrics give a private insight to the feelings behind the reasons people pick up self-harming habits despite their better interests. "'Hey Marco, since when were you a smoker?' Since the day I gave up and decided to fuck myself over." |
AGAINST THE KITCHEN FLOOR by WILL WOOD- Trying my best to avoid diving into just how cathartic the kitchen floor is to me, this song still wrecks me everytime I hear it. I love how as his voice gets more desperate towards the end, it sounds more and more like a broadway production he's putting on; a huge display just to apologise. |
NO I'M NOT HOME by CHEAP DIRTY HORSE- I'll always feel safer with the most violent cocaine-using nonce-basher in the valleys than I will with anybody who's ever harmed a child. This song sings the graces of community and the vigilante action that comes with it. |
