The Brian Jonestown Massacre - Cabin Fever
This was unexpectedly so good. Gained extra points because psychedelic rock isn’t something I normally listen to a lot of. At different points in the song made me think of Pixies, Destroyer, and Smashing Pumpkins. Still wish this song would have been a little tighter, and that’s probably what ultimately separated the top 2. But really enjoyed this overall.

I’m confused…what did this category have to do with film noir?
And separate from that: since the instructions were iirc to pick something that we listened to a lot during quarantine OR evokes isolation, then basically any submission could be within the box.

There it is. Was worried I went a little too far with the isolation theme. Glad you liked it.

Well, I guess there is nothing wrong with your taste in music. :)

fuck I should’ve submitted Crimson And Clover
When people have submitted a Miles or Coltrane track to a walrus it’s usually been a disaster for them.

St. Paul & The Broken Bones - Call Me
When this song started, I thought I was listening to something out of motown, and really that’s what this is to me, with a modern spin. A really enjoyable listen that I wouldn’t have expected to like as much as I did. Definitely hits some of that isolation feel too.

Nobody ever sees the chubby white guy with soul coming at them, and then it’s all over.

I saw these guys at a music festival right before everything locked down, in a festival full of EDM acts they stood out the most.
Swanky submitted Suicide once before so it could also be him.

Oh fuck - it’s generally good advice to just ignore my posts.

You don’t associate the idea of isolation with film noir?
If psychiatrist asked me for my top 100 word associations that relate to isolation, film noir would never even cross my mind.
I might come up with “isolation” eventually when the prompt was “film noir,” but not the other way around.
