Angle of Attack

Queens of the Stone Age - A Song for the Dead

This song makes me feel reckless. A good kind of reckless.

It’s late enough to go drivin
See what’s mine
Life’s the study of dying
How to do it right

I love the drums, the bass, the uneven flow, the heaviness, the aura of decadence that oozes out of the speakers when this is playing.

Come a little bit closer
And get untied
In a hearse rollin over
Just a track in the line
Fuck it

It’s meant to be played loud, so loud that if you’re wearing headphones nothing else in the world will exist except for this song. So loud that if you’re listening to it in a car your rear view mirror will vibrate and you’ll feel the bass in your feet as you’re pressing down hard on the gas. You’ll never hear the sirens behind you.

Come on, let’s go drivin
Come on, let’s take a little ride
That’s the study of dying
How to do it right

The most underrated rock song ever.

ruthakers:

I never thought I’d see the day I’d voluntarily offer up this photo, of 17 year old me. In the Air Force, and apparently unable to do anything to myself to make me look appropriate for public. Veterans. This is for you. The rest of you are allowed one comment. Make it count.

17 in the Air Force? I’ve been there. We’re GPOYWVDE buddies. Pound it.

I only have a handful of pictures of myself in uniform from my time in. This was taken in aught-four. Serious Josh is serious. Seriously though, I don’t know why I’m not smiling, my Mom took this picture. In fact I separated (honorably, tyvm) shortly after this. And my (CLEARLY AWESOME) last name is very uncommon. So stalk away.
