...and now for something completely different


Been writing way too much on urbexing and reenacting. I got asked tonight what albums have had the most profound effect on me.

The two lists below are in no particular order.

I tend to like making "lists". Perhaps when I get old and have one marble rolling around my skull. I'll sit and scrawl lists on walls or babble them to myself.....

1. R.E.M. - "Green"
2. Uncle Tupelo - "Anodyne"
3. Lush - "Spooky"
4. Joy Division - "Unknown Pleasures"
5. R.E.M. - "Fables Of The Reconstruction"
6. They Might Be Giants - "Lincoln"
7. Ned's Atomic Dustbin - "God Fodder"
8. Archer's Of Loaf - "Vee Vee"
9. Poster Children - "Flower Plower"
10.

I also am taking some writer's license here. I am including books that have had a huge influence on me as well. It is tough to just list 10!

1. John Krakauer - "Into The Wild"
2. Jack Kerouac - "On The Road"
3. George Orwell - "Down And Out In Paris And London"
4. Hunter S. Thompson - "Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas"
5. George Orwell - "Homage To Catalonia"
6. Jim Goad - "The Redneck Manifesto"
7. Ray Bradbury - "Fahrenheit 451"
8. Robert Heinlein - "Starship Troopers"
9. William Faulkner - "The Sound And The Fury"
10. Tim O'Brien - "The Things They Carried"
