Shakedown 2009

I think it was 2009 or 2010. We used to have Guitar Hero & Singstar on our consoles and my brothers and I played them to death at the time. Strangely, two songs stuck with me over the years: Today and 1979.  These songs were different but they pulled me in anytime I play them. Several years later, Mellon Collie is now one of my favorites and influential albums in my life. The variety, structures, and emotions in these 28 songs amazed me, giving me a sense of nostalgia for innocent youth and a big catharsis. I’ll cherish these songs and this album as long as I can. I’m patiently for my Vinyl copy soon.
