MACHINIE HEAD's Robb Flynn - "Whenever I Slept With A Girl I Always Played Music"
February 20, 2014, 10 years ago
MACHINE HEAD frontman Robb Flynn has penned his latest General Journals, an excerpt follows:
"The local college radio station out here in the Co Co County (KVHS) plays all kinds of cool stuff, everything from AMON AMARTH and Machine Head to A DAY TO REMEMBER and FLOGGING MOLLY, which makes this the best station in my section of the Bay Area without question. They've been playing the new Chino Moreno side-project, CROSSES a lot and my wife (who loves DEFTONES) loves the song they play."
I loved that comment. I literally laughed out loud!
It got me thinking of all the albums I had 'sexual relations' to. At least early on in my life, whenever I slept with a girl I always played music. During one of my first sexual relations I had MERCYFUL FATE's Mellissa cassette playing in the background of my bedroom while she and I were drinking wine coolers (pretty romantic huh? LOL!). I have fond memories of that record. That same girl and I had sex at a cemetery on a gravestone while we (again) played Mercyful Fate's Mellissa on her car stereo (apparently that was my go-to lovin' record). She ended knocking the headstone off of a two-piece gravestone when we were done, doh!
There was something so fucking taboo and wrong with this scenario, but I cannot lie, it was thrilling!"
