People who grew up with good music in their household have no idea how easy their musical journey has been.

He is more of a Man Machine, but there is plenty of Computer Love to go around.

I wish my dad would say things like 'holy shit dude' and listen to The Residents. My dad is kind of awesome. When I was 13 and just getting into music his is the record collection where I found Malkmus, My Bloody Valentine, Yo La Tengo, Built to Spill, Spiritualized, Sonic Youth, Sparklehorse, Grandaddy, Doves, Mudhoney, Iggy Pop, and countless other bands. Am I your dad? I have been asleep at the wheel. |

People who grew up with good music in their household have no idea how easy their musical journey has been. Musically, it was amazing. But it came at the cost of having no common musical ground with anyone in high school whatsoever. Everybody was listening to Zep, outside of the bizarro punker kids (who subsequently became my closest friends). I ended up heavy into Crass, Buzzcocks, X-Ray Spex, Propagandhi and the like for a good year because literally everybody else was listening to classic rock and had no interest in learning about why Thurston Moore and Kim Gordon were the greatest rock couple ever. |

Yeah I legitimately cried when that happened. Making matters worse was that I ended up having to write an article about it for KEXP's music news blog. Fucking tore my heart up, man.

Oh, yes, totally like my dad! Oh wait... that was a bunch of hair metal and Scorpions. |

I'm glad you didn't lump Scorpions in with those hair metal clowns.
