To kick off this playlist I couldn’t think of a better way to do it. AC/DC may be my all time favorite rock band, I have their iconic lightning bolt symbol tattooed on my finger. Their music hanged my life forever…
The band sound as if they pay tribute to the opening of Strawberry Fields Forever by The Beatles with delicate guitar riffs throughout this song…
This track makes me feel fear. It doesn’t tell me what fear feels like. It makes my heart beat fast as it unfolds a story of death and destruction. Clipping. is founded on the use of noise that makes the listener uncomfortable, sometimes to the point where it’s unbearable…
