PORTUGAL. THE MAN x KNIK

Read the rest of this entry »

The music video that got me signed to a major label was released 19 years ago today (in 2006!)

I have no idea why this worked at the time, but it did. You probably had to be there to understand except I was there and I still don’t.

TO BE CRINGE IS TO BE FREE.

It should be said that I was still on very bad drugs in 2006. My songs were weird and dark and I had all kinds of ideas that seem super edgelord to me when I watch now. I really was trying to say something at the time and I guess I said it? But LOL cocaine makes people stupid and bad. I’m 18 years in recovery from this exact time.

Some pretty OK songs from that time though and I do forgive myself for being such a mess back then because like what else am I gonna do? Stay mad at a 25 year old raver forever?! Can’t be me.
