when I want to take a breather from (a) senile animal.
.......
this is possible?
It sure is.
I've been taking a break from (A)SA by listening to Collosus of Destiny. I've finally realized what a truly awesome album it really is.
Ha, good for you!
And Vinney, yeah, I meant to say there is much more to listen to than just (A)SA, I also still haven't been listening to it religiously. I was just slightly dissapointed after the first listen, than it grew on me a little, because I got more familiar with the tracks. Then I read the first reviews and they were more positive than I would have had expected. Especially lately, since doom metal is being hyped and all that, and it's becoming quite popular, the Melvins have been mentioned a lot in all kinds of interviews and articles in that particular context, so I thought the majority of the people out there would be expecting something heavier and slower. And also, I still didn't like the album as much as I hoped I would.
But as always, the Melvins did their own thing and followed their own way. I don't think I've ever liked a Melvins album straight from the beginning, but there was always something that made me listen to it more.
But don't worry, I love everything they ever did, and my obsession with them will always stay, and even grow. But (A)SA still isn't my first choice when I put on some music - it sure will eventually, and then it will be played more and more - but right now it's other, but also good stuff.
