My favorite part of this album is when I forced my parents to listen to it on a car ride, and about halfway through my dad smashed his fist into my stereo shouting "I CAN'T LISTEN TO THIS SHIT ANYMORE" to turn it off. I couldn't stop laughing, almost crashed.

Critical support to your dad. The horny Anne Frank album is not exactly what I would call driving music.

Sometimes it can be, but more often I'll reach for In My G4 Over Da Sea by Neutral Bling Hotel (bandcamp)

[-] NewLeaf@hexbear.net 3 points 3 months ago

I like it when I'm driving alone. It's fun to sing along to really badly

Bless my parents… I had a phase where I was obsessed with new music and would blast all my new findings on the morning ride to school. I don’t know how my dad wouldn’t get pissed with “I LOVE YOU JESUS CHRIIIIISSST” at 7:00 am… I mean I would also blast some black metal and weird industrial-doom stuff, so NMH was mild in comparison.

I am your dad. Fucking hate this album.

I love how our entire lives, we're supposed to just accept that we have no control over what media our parents force us to consume, but they can't handle 40 minutes of something outside of their comfort zone.

It's why there are still reruns of the Flintstones and Scooby doo

What did people think Neutral Milk Hotel meant?

[-] Esqplorer@lemmy.zip 15 points 3 months ago

Honestly, I never thought about it until literally right now.

Well, I was joking as I searched up his name but yk, Magnum is also as funny considering that IASIP joke before:

Oops I dropped my monster condum that I used for my magnum dong

It's a name of a condom

Genius annotation of “Communist Daughter”

As fascism swept through Europe in the middle of the 20th century, the communists were often the good guys. Fascists believed in order and hierarchy while communists believed in equality and brotherhood and such. Historically, communists have fought on the front lines against fascism, the rise of which has often been enabled by liberal or social democratic governments who sought to preserve the status quo. Therefore, the communist daughter is a girl who is rather idealistic about politics and doesn’t understand why people are so violent toward each other.

This could even be a direct Anne Frank reference. Though she wasn’t a communist (she was too young to really have firm political ideas), she shared that idealistic spirit. Describing her as the communist daughter could be like saying she didn’t care about any nation or race, she saw herself as a part of humanity and responsible for the whole thing.

Taken figuratively, and along the album’s theme of lust, the idea of a “communist” daughter centers around the idea of sharing everything. The attractive girl is being shared and passed around by everyone – as would be the case with any commodity in a communist community. The girl is being used, and this is ultimately the meaning behind her moniker. This can also be considered a “co-option” of the Communist Daughter; because communism and socialism are popular amongst the working class, fascists often adopt the moniker of communism with none of the policies in order to get ahead politically. In the sense of the song, the girl is being made out to be less moral than she is by her sexuality.

1st paragraph is spot on.

2nd paragraph is odd, but reasonable conjecture and vibes I guess.

3rd paragraph is insane anti-communist gibberish.

[-] TraschcanOfIdeology@hexbear.net 2 points 3 months ago

Both interpretations are wiiiiiiild. rust-darkness

[-] Big_Bob@hexbear.net 11 points 3 months ago

ITAOTS is the greatest album ever made and nothing has ever come close to its magnificence.

Also, yeah it references cum a lot. Like, a whole lot. I don't even know what cumming has to do with Anne Frank.

Saw Jeff live a couple times, one place was in a seated auditorium in central Pennsylvania. For some reason there were ushers and staff and shit. OMG. When he started singing, and everyone started signing with him... The fucking staff looked TERRIFIED! One guy looked so concerned, like we were some kind of cult and he was about to get sacrified or something.

[-] kleeon@hexbear.net 8 points 3 months ago

Very few things make me cry, but Oh Comely hits me real hard for some reason. Amazing album

[-] spacecadet@hexbear.net 9 points 3 months ago

Album has lots of lyrically great examples of twisting typically assumed grotesque imagery into beauty. Good stuff.

I made a similar meme back when I had insta but I don't think it got much reach

[-] novibe@lemmy.ml 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I gotta say the lyrics are my favorite part of the album. They are so cryptic but so evocative. They make me feel so much, without needing to think at all. It almost seems like pointless to try to “understand” the album. But it feels impossible not to meditate on it when listening. Idk, one of my favorites ever for sure. It’s so fucking weird, and I never related to any line more than “Can't believe how strange it is to be anything at all”.
