TRL -What a throwback!
TRL + Say What Karaoke used to be some solid afternoon viewing.
Also, if you had told 16 year old me that Carson Daly was going to host a podcast with one of the world’s best golfers I would have thought you were totally insane.
Obviously this is all a matter of opinion but I would listen to “Falling away from me” or “Freak on a leash” over Got the life every time.
I want to clarify, “Got the life” is good. I am not saying it isn’t, I just don’t feel that it is their best.
You remember that @anon3021505 has a sword, right? Might be best to word things even more carefully, my friend.
I don’t know if I could have stated it’s my opinion and nothing more.
@anon3021505 knows I respect him and his opinions on music more than a lot of people. I am just having a discussion.
Battis, you can tell me any of my opinions are trash and I won’t run you thru with my sword. I promise.
This seems like a thing a gui that would run up on him with a sword would say…
This thread sent me down some old jams today and this one holds up. It’s an album closer and has a good vibe to it, but, if you’re familiar with 36CF, probably not the tune you would first think of. Good record though. Dudes voice is a little insane. Hahahaha.
Year of the sea Shanty made me think about this album for the first time in a long time:
Edited: It is on Spotify. It’s a pretty solid double CD worth of shanties performed by a great selection of artists.
First concert I ever saw was System of a Down, Method Man & Redman, and Limp Bizkit at the Peoria Civic Center. We snuck onto the floor and it blew my fucking mind was a 17 year old. Limp Bizkit was to this day the craziest crowd I’ve ever seen at a show. The crowd tore the plywood off the ice (Civic Center is also a minor league hockey arena) and there were girls completely naked surfing around on pieces of plywood. I saw cocaine for the first time that night. Crazy mosh pits. Nuts.
It was shortly after this night that I decided I wanted to be in a band. My Limp Bizkit phase didn’t last but a year or two more after that, but that show made an impression on me to say the least.
This was my introduction to Korn. The shear weirdness of “Twist” was awesome to me. My friend had a PA system in his car and he would pull up to the tourist center in our town and scare the hell out of tourists just blaring it through the PA.

Would love to see some lists from you all! I know it’s an exercise but fun to read what everyone has posted/shared stories and memories associated with them.
I legit was just trying to catch up here and figure out my true “high school” list. The stuff that I keep thinking of is def more my college albums.
Stay tuned lol.
Edit: though technically I was still a “teen” freshman and sophomore year of college…hmmmm
I knew you would do this. Wait until I have an office day, damnit
Any traction on that list?
Love you too brother
13-19 is a big window of time!
No particular order:
The Alt/Rock (My top genres)
The Pop (The days of the IPod)
The Grunge (Seattle Boi. Was raised on it haha)
Also greatly shaped my teen years, but not in my top 10 (honorable mentions, I guess):
Gonna take this challenge.
First off, I’m an old. 13-19 for me covers 84-90. Almost all of these remind me of my cassette Walkman and my half hour walk to and from high school. We had a great alternative radio station in Toronto (CFNY) and my musical tastes were heavily influenced by their selections (as you’ll see below).
Probably a bunch I’m forgetting. Also was a big consumer of 12" EPs/Dance Remixes/Imports back in the day.
Edit: okay, we’re in the nest here so I’m going to have to come clean. Probably not in the top ten but not too far off are:
Duran Duran - Seven and the Ragged Tiger
Wham! - Make it Big (slaps… was singing Freedom (but not George Michael’s Freedom) just the other week)
I literally can not narrow it down to just 10! Just can’t do it! I’m breaking the rules!
I’ve broken it into high school teen and college teen. I just listened to wayyyyyy too much music.
8th grade/High school Casey top 10(ish) in no particular order other than how they came into my head - 1990-mid 1995
Soul asylum - grave dancers union
Pearl Jam - ten
Nirvana - nevermind
They might be giants - Apollo 18 (but also flood!)
Green Day - kerplunk
Tom petty - full moon fever
Metallica - black
Weezer - blue
The breeders - last splash
Matthew sweet - girlfriend
Madonna - I’m breathless
Post high school teen top 10ish - mid 1995 -mid -1997 - again no particular order.
Bouncing souls - the good the bad and the argyle
Bouncing souls - maniacal laughter
Rancid - and out come the wolves
Mr t experience - love is dead
Screeching weasel - how to make enemies and irritate people
Screeching weasel - kill the musicians
Radiohead - the bends
Ben folds five - self titled
No doubt - tragic kingdom
Juliana Hatfield three - become what you are
Belly - king
Also I saw some TRL talk earlier. I actually was on TRL back in October 2000. But that’s a story for another time. Lol.
