SuperRadMike’s Top 10 Valentine’s Day Songs

Published

on

Ahhh Valentine’s Day is finally here and of course if you’re with someone it’s freakin’ awesome and if you’re not then it’s lame. Either way I have picked my top 10 “love” songs and thought I’d share them with you. So get you favorite bottle of lube and enjoy! 

10. Nofx – “Liza And Louise” 

What can I say? I haven’t met one straight male who doesn’t like the idea of two ladies gettin’ down. 
 
9. Dethklok – “Castraitikron” 
If  you’ve ever been whipped you get where this song is coming from. If not then you’re probably whipped. Also Dethklok rules. 
 
8. She Wants Revenge – “Tear You Apart” 
The one thing I love is it’s about one thing: straight fuckin’! It’s super moody, dark and dirty. Not too mention something you want to whisper in your Valentine’s ear.  
7. Poison The Well – “Nerdy” 
To me this has always been the epitome of sappy, pathetic and in love. But it is definitely well written and intense. One of my personal favorites. 
 
6. Nine Inch Nails – “We’re In This Together Now” 
A list like this assumes to have Nine Inch Nails on it. Even before seeing the video the song made me feel like I would be running to the person I cared about. To be honest the lyrics are quite sweet. I feel Trent Reznor secretly like to write love songs. I.E. “Closer” and “The Perfect Drug”. Or Maybe it’s just me. 
 
5. T.S.O.L. – “Code Blue” 
The title is a little misleading, this song is about necrophilia. One of the first punk songs I had ever heard and wouldn’t you know it, it’s about a guy having sex with dead bodies. True love and devotion. 
 
 
4. Reggie And The Full Effect – “Congratulations Smack + Katy” 
To be honest this video/song is quite adorable and awesome. Hopefully this gives you motivation to find your peanut butter. Or jelly. Also it’s by the old drummer of Coalesce, how is that not awesome? 
 
3. Death From Above 1979 – “Pull Out” 
Watch the video. The singer/drummer gives an exact description of what the song is about and why it’s appropriate for Valentine’s Day. 
 
2. Cannibal Corpse – “I Cum Blood” 
I’m starting to think I might have a problem with necrophilia. Eh, oh well! Once again about another guy enjoys having his way with dead ladies. Except he likes to give back, if you will. With his blood. Enjoy! 
 
1. The Lonely Island – “I Just Had Sex” 
I can’t think of a better way to end this list then with this song. I hope this is how everyone’s Valentine’s Day ends, fireworks and all.

“He Walks By Night” – Listen to a Brand New John Carpenter Song NOW!

John Carpenter music

It’s a new day, and you’ve got new John Carpenter to listen to. John Carpenter, Daniel Davies and Cody Carpenter have released the new track He Walks By Night this morning, the second single off their upcoming album Lost Themes IV: Noir, out May 3 on Sacred Bones Records.

Lost Themes IV: Noir is the latest installment in a series that sees Carpenter releasing new music for John Carpenter movies that don’t actually exist. The first Lost Themes was released in 2015, followed by Lost Themes II in 2016 and Lost Themes III: Alive After Death in 2021.

Sacred Bones previews, “It’s been a decade since John Carpenter recorded the material that would become Lost Themes, his debut album of non-film music and the opening salvo in one of Hollywood’s great second acts. Those vibrant, synth-driven songs, made in collaboration with his son Cody Carpenter and godson Daniel Davies, kickstarted a musical renaissance for the pioneering composer and director. With Lost Themes IV: Noir, they’ve struck gold again, this time mining the rich history of the film noir genre for inspiration.

“Since the first Lost Themes, John has referred to these compositions as “soundtracks for the movies in your mind.” On the fourth installment in the series, those movies are noirs. Like the film genre they were influenced by, what makes these songs “noirish” is sometimes slippery and hard to define, and not merely reducible to a collection of tropes. The scores for the great American noir pictures were largely orchestral, while the Carpenters and Davies work off a sturdy synth-and-guitar backbone.

“The trio’s free-flowing chemistry means Lost Themes IV: Noir runs like a well-oiled machine—the 1951 Jaguar XK120 Roadster from Kiss Me Deadly, perhaps, or the 1958 Plymouth Fury from John’s own Christine. It’s a chemistry that’s helped power one of the most productive stretches of John’s creative life, and Noir proves that it’s nowhere near done yielding brilliant results.”
