I was digging through my depthless drawer of neverending t-shirts to find something to wear this morning, and I came across my favourite band t-shirt that I haven't seen for a month or two! King 810 are my absolute favourite band and seeing the t-shirt relit the fire of love for them, so I put on my playlist of their songs while I was carrying out my morning ritual of a cup of tea and a cigarette, and it set my day off to a really good start!
What is your favourite genre of music, or your favourite band?
I know that this is something everybody says, but I have a really wide/varied taste in music - from pop punk, to heavy metal, to techno, to gangsta rap, to mainstream charts - there really aren't any boundaries to the kind of music I enjoy!
Some of my favourite artists/bands include :
- Astroid Boys
- Paramore
- 50 Cent
- Taylor Swift
- Eminem
- Mayday Parade
- A Day to Remember
And my all time favourite- King 810.
Lately I have particularly been enjoying "Pop Goes Punk" covers, such as Execution Day's cover of '1-800-273-8255' which is definitely worth a listen if you haven't already - https://youtu.be/g7_YLpVsUl4
I spent a couple years as a tour driver for a band from my home town - the musicians were all close friends of mine, and we would spend weeks on the road, traveling up and down the UK so that they could play shows for fans from different parts of the country, and we had a whole bunch of fun along the way. Our tour van always seemed to be falling to bits, we got lost more times than we can count, but the memories are some that I'll always treasure - whenever I listen to their music it never fails to bring it all back to me!
If you've made it this far without falling asleep - THANKYOU for reading on and getting to know me a little better!! Love Blacktop 🧡
