Favorite Lyrics:
I've been tryin' real hard To realize But somethings take a long long Long long time (a long time)
Hold the phone Hit repeat You got me foamin' at the knees Saw the flame tasted sin You burned me once again Cut the cord, she's a creep
- Aberdeen
Favorite Music Video: Shake Me Down
How did I discover them?
I’ve liked them ever since I was little. I think the first time I heard them was while I was listening to the radio in my room and heard Shake Me Down and just fell in love. I decided to listen to more of their songs later on and immediately put them on my Walkman.
Why should you give them a listen?
I feel like even if you don’t like the genre you can still find a song you’ll love. Each of their albums have a different feel. Their songs are fun to listen to and yet still have a ton of emotion. Some may seem random at first, but after listening for a while you get a sense of the deeper meaning. Honestly you’ve probably already heard their song Ain’t No Rest For The Wicked so I guess I should focus on persuading you all to check out their other songs. Their new album, Tell Me I’m Pretty, is so good. I love each and every one of their new songs. They give off a feeling of softness with a side of “Don’t fucking mess with me”. Honestly CTE is at least one of my top 3 favorites, especially since I’ve loved them for longer than most of my favorites.
