#ThursdayFiveList #HereComesTheRain

Before going solo stuff and working with KMFDM, Tim Skold was in a band called Shotgun Messiah. Their album Violent New Breed may be responsible for a fair bit of damage to my ears as an angsty 14 year old.

1. Shotgun Messiah - Rain — https://youtu.be/r3uwV8htP4k

I'm pretty psyched to see Bob with reunited Sugar in September!

2. Bob Mould - Black Sheets of Rain — https://musiccloud.io/5ataA

I never saw the Layne Staley version of AiC (weird, I know) but I did catch them a couple years ago at Sick New World… 🤷

3. Alice in Chains - Rain When I Die — https://musiccloud.io/4VqNy

I am happy to say that I at least got to see Chris Cornell once in my life, at Lollapalooza ‘96

4. Chris Cornell - Steel Rain — https://musiccloud.io/dzq1y

The Duran Duran Tribute Album is very 1997. It's also responsible for my retroactive appreciation for Duran Duran. 😅

5. Buck-O-Nine - Hold Back The Rain — https://youtu.be/nEBuj9_XsNs

Hmm, I suppose it's #MusicWomenWednesday AND #CanadaDay so uh…
