coming clean...

so i've kept it in for long enough...

the first two albums that helped me through the long hell that is being a midwestern guilt ridden catholic with built in (protestant) work eithic...
and made me angsty were...


A. Fugazi's -- Repeater* **

B. Nine Inch Nails -- Pretty Hate Machine


* mind you, the B-Side of this tape was Morrissey's "Viva Hate," which really helped sum up my mopey, depressed state of junior high school... but...

** some of my best friends. friends to this day...
gave me *SO MUCH SHIT* for Fugazi.
...and no offense... I love you... but fuck you.
