Day 30: A song that reminds you of yourself

"We Became Snakes" - #SaccharineTrust (1986)

All those confrontational, genre-busting bands who originally recorded for #SSTRecords back in the 80s - #BlackFlag, #Minutemen, #SaintVitus, #Slovenly etc etc - did more to shape my aesthetic sense than any other group of artists, before/since. Saccharine Trust - with their awesome musicality, far reaching poetics, and deeply felt spirit - embodied that aesthetic like no other. This song reminds me not only of why I still love them so much, but why I still love all those slithering snakes (read: people) we writhe around with day-in/day-out.

SIN|SHRIFT from Arizona!
🤘 ❤️

One of the first sparks that lit the love i have for independent bands. These guys were there from day one to the end. They have newer songs, but if you haven't heard it it's brand new to you, right? 😁

Collide Over Me, from Texas!
🤘 ❤️

This is another anthem-like song for me. All their songs are great, but this is the one i'll start with every time.
