Few albums mean more to me & my girlfriend than 'Loveless'. I don't even know how humans make music like that, man. It's like it just fell from the sky. I like the one that goes "WAAOOHAHWAOOAH!WAAOOHAHWAOOAH!"

I hear that. It's too much. I nearly vomited during it once because it was too much to take in. It's like the peak of acid... heady, weird, fantastic.
