Music to Pay Attention To

THUNDER PERFECT MIND

This is high art. Think of it like a classical symphony. To listen to this album, please make yourself comfortable. Don’t do anything. Just lie back and focus on the sounds. Eventually, you’ll probably get it. These rough noises are sufficient…to create whole dimensions in the mind.

RITUAL OF THE SAVAGE, Les Baxter

Don’t focus on doing anything else when you listen to this, either. Smoke, or drink wine or tea. This one is more leisurely. It’s like a story, or a tour.

VINTAGE BLACK MAGIC, CULTES DE GHOULES

Pay attention.

MEAT PUPPETS, Mirage

MELVINS, Freak Puke
