My Diagonal Life

Just listened to this album, Bush’s Deconstructed, for the first time in years.  I worshipped Gavin Rossdale in high school, like any proper grunge fag would.  BUT this album is really AWFUL!  It’s a remix album, so it doesn’t really sound that much like Bush, which is its only saving grace because sometimes the songs are churning along and you’re like “this is kinda cool,” and then Gavin’s voice pops in and you’re like “AH!” because it’s awful.  The whole Bush thing is awful.  BUSH WAS A TERRIBLE BAND!  Honestly, the lyrics are completely undecipherable, and not in a good way, and the music is just predictable and boring and Gavin’s voice is truly awful.

This song, however, is pretty good.  It’s a cover of New Order’s “In a Lonely Place.”  It’s probably good because it’s about as melodic as Gavin’s voice gets, and it’s mixed by Tricky.
