Someone I Love Dearly (SILD) is a newly-revealed heroin addict and I am a newly-discovered codependent and in dealing with all of this I find it very lucky that I love so much aggressive and feedback-laden music. Something about feedback, played loud enough, can smooth the roughest of moods. These songs have been particularly soothing of late:

• Bullet With Butterfly Wings – Smashing Pumpkins
• I Was Wrong – Social Distortion
• Hey Hey My My – Neil Young w Crazy Horse
• New Day Rising – Husker Du
• Revenant – Distillers
• Institutionalized – Suicidal Tendencies
• anything by X
• anything by Sex Pistols

Additional recommendations welcomed.
