Top Tracks: Fill In The Blank, Vincent, Just What I Needed / Not Just What I Needed
If there’s any justice in this world, Teens of Denial will go down in history as a generation defining album. Will Toledo writes about what he knows, and what he knows is life as a twenty-something undergraduate student with little hope for a career and an almost complete inability to properly traverse the obstacles of adult life. Environments are dying, economies are collapsing, he’s paying a bunch of extra taxes to government programs that probably won’t exist anymore when he’s old enough to benefit from them, but his biggest concern is that he can’t cook dinner for himself. Well it turns out no one else really knows how to manage adulthood at twenty-four either. None of us know how to make dinner for ourselves. None of us know how to hold a job. None of us know how to steer the ship. None of us know how to properly clear a Cars sample, preventing a multi-thousand-dollar loss for our record label. We’ll figure it out eventually – maybe. In the meantime, we can find some solace in Will’s riff-laden guitar rock, knowing we aren’t the only ones struggling. [First added to this chart: 07/03/2016]
