Songs about being musicians

from Beat Motel Zine

They say write what you know, and many, many, many musicians have just done that. Obscure lyrics about mainlining Anusol, and tell-it-like-it-is ones about that weird smell at the back of the tour bus that was there before you bought it. It's all there, and it's all wonderful. Sam is back, so join him as he joins Andrew as they fail to check anything they say and barely talk about the music they've decided to talk about. This week's sponsor's include Shell Oil, Camel Cigarettes and the HMR Treasury. Did we talk about how awful the Offspring are these days or last week? Is Ed Sheeran still playing for them? The usual amounts of toilet humour and ponderings what embracing European orchestral traditions suggest in black metal. Oh, and Metallica. Yes. They sponsor us this week, as well. (Actually? Not actually). ### Riffs of the week #### Dr Sam's Riff - Les Savy Fav - What We Don't Don't Want (opening) #### Andrew's Riff - Aquilus - Into the Earth (7:10) ### Dr Sam's track choices 1.

Explicit BLOOD ON THE TRACKS Season 4: The Brian Wilson Story iHeartPodcasts and Double Elvis In 1966, Brian Wilson planned to follow up the Beach Boys' groundbreaking album Pet Sounds with an even bigger musical statement. He was writing a teenage symphony to God. That album, Smile, was never finished. Instead, Brian slowly unraveled, as the pressure to make something profound weighed heavy on him. He worried that he wasn’t good enough. He worried that he was a failure in the eyes of the record company, his band, his peers, and his own father. He thought his house was bugged. He thought the music he was making conjured some strange voodoo that had a disastrous impact on the real world. He became paranoid. He self-medicated with amphetamines, hash, and LSD. He held meetings in his swimming pool. He imagined people who weren’t there. And eventually, in 1967, he went off the proverbial deep end. Did the real Brian Wilson ever resurface?
