#556 The Pogues – Rum Sodomy & the Lash

Posted on by anoceanroars

The Pogues were a British Celtic band. Rum Sodomy & the Lash their second album was produced by Elvis Costello. Is it me or is folk music on the rise at this time period of music history? 

I will let the band’s lyric describe how I felt listening to this album.

And now I’m lying here I’ve had too much booze
I’ve been shat on and spat on and raped and abused
I know that I am dying…

I am sorry, but you must have a special temperament or deafness to enjoy this music. Maybe you have to listen to it while drinking your fifth beer of the night. This was so painful to listen to for me, almost Joan Baez pain level. 0.5/10.

…and i hate writing about myself. It feels awkward. Or i am a bit awkward and rather not write about it. i have not got a clue where to begin or end… …at this very moment i am a recent graduate of Colorado State University. i live in Longmont, Colorado, which i next to Boulder. Boulder is where all hipsters live. See, this crap is rather boring. i moved here from Budapest, Hungary four years ago, well, actually that is sort of a lie. i was living in Lyon, France one year before i moved to Colorado and before that Hungary. i like to travel or move. i keep moving… i have many interest besides moving: writing, watching, taking, listening and reading (stories, films, photographs, music and books).
