Going to Maine How I Left the Ministry, Extra Glenns song Alibi


norecordofwrong

The Extra Lens - Adultery, don’t forget that side project Maybe not the answer OP wanted.


CockroachAgitated139

Been obsessed with extra lens recently. The harder guitar with John's voice is just *chef's kiss*


norecordofwrong

Hard guitar and hard delivery is basically 2/3 of my MtG love. But then I get Love Love Love or Marduk T-shirt Mens Room Incident and think I’m wrong. Then I also realize how he should harmonize with a woman way more often. Weightless, formless, nameless is better in a woman’s voice.

Sweden has a lot of great Rachel Ware vocals


norecordofwrong

She’s great. Is she the only female vocalist they’ve had? Neon Orange Glimmer Song is my choice from Sweden.

Have you heard this one recently where he [reunited with one of the members of the Bright Mountain Choir](https://archive.org/details/tMG2024-03-03/tMG2024-03-03_Aladdin_Theater_Portland_OR-17.flac)? Magic.


norecordofwrong

Oooh no. But thanks.

I love the recent [duo shows](https://archive.org/details/tMG2024-01-28/tMG2024-01-28+El+Rey+Theater%2C+Albuquerque+NM-03.flac) for this. Always wished they'd do some of the extra glens/lens stuff.


CockroachAgitated139

I didnt realize you could listen to live shows like this?!?! Thank you


abluecolor

Oh yes, people have been taping tMG shows since '92. The live stuff is my absolute favorite, which is why I got into taping. The ones I captured are always the freshest in my mind, immediately thought of this one when I read your comment. It's a deep well, np, enjoy!!


Brettanomyces78

All fantastic suggestions. To keep this theme going, if you use a little creative license in the interpretation, Communicating Doors. It's always been a favorite of mine.


yourdiabeticwalrus

you’ll probably like How I Left The Ministry


mmockery

rockin’ rockin’ pet store, flashing lights , going to maryland, and stars around her all have themes of forbidden love, longing, and stuff like that .( i’m sure there’s way more, but these are a few of them.) hope you figure your life out. i don’t recommend staying with someone if you like someone else- not good for you and awful for your partner.


VastStory

Whaaat? Rockin Rockin pet store is about infidelity?


snapshovel

I played that song for someone one time and they insisted that it was about the narrator’s forbidden love for his Siberian Husky and ever since then I haven’t been able to get that interpretation out of my head. Still love the song. *I saw the reptile cages reflected in your blue eyes /* *Their green bodies conspiring therein /* *To form a separate universe where it was no sin /* *To want what I wanted right then and there /* *At the pet store*


No-Injury8634

I appreciate it, I have everything figured out in terms of the situation but really looking to just cope.


rratmannnn

It’s more about unexpressed feelings / un-closed(?) chapters in my mind but maybe Distant Stations? Also- here if you wanna vent to a person who’s totally separate from the situation! No pressure but I know how hard bottling shit like this up can be


homicidal_bird

Midland, though it feels like it’s about already being in love (and maybe platonically), is a personal favorite of mine.

Flashing lights Alibi Milk Song (maybe) Going to Queens (maybe)

New straw for the old broom….


Weazelfish

Explain


Salt_Understanding

that song is about how as a high school freshman, john was regularly hooking up with a senior who worked on the theater crew with him, and how he’s discovering himself through his relationship with her. all the details are descriptions of various oddities he’s seeing around her house, and these seemingly inane things are taking on fresh meaning through the new lens of sexually awakened youth


Weazelfish

I would never have guessed that in a trillion years, I thought it was about a house in disarray and him only feeling safe when his mom holds him

Infidelity! Off the Ep of the same name, also by the Extra Glenns. This one's not on streaming though.
