Some of y'all may remember MTV's Alternative Nation or 120 Minutes, awesome programs & incredible ways to discover #music back in the 80s & 90s...
Welcome, to the Fediverse edition!

Share youtube, songwhip, spotify, bandcamp links, music memes, album art, articles, whatever! But avoid links to directly download music (don't want to get Lemmy.world in trouble). Songwhip links always appreciated!
See this post on recs on how to post!
The Golden Rule: Music taste is subjective so don't be a gatekeeping asshole. There's no "bad music", only music you like or don't like.
We Are A Community: So no racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or spam.

Welcome! And thanks for the thorough write up! I'm glad you were able to emotionally connect with this album.
I think the barking dogs on I'm Your Man are supposed to make you feel uncomfortable. It makes that song a bit more challenging and intense which I like.
I re-listened to the album last night and I agree that it makes the song more intense. It still makes me uncomfortable, but I don't mind it. This isn't an album I would listen to if I was looking to feel something upbeat and that is OK.
Unrelated but I Don't Like My Mind grew on my when I listened to it by itself and might be in my top 3 tracks when listened to individually.
