thread title is relevant to me as well

what's your poison?

does weed count?

weed is an amplifier

it makes you hear the music that is already playing, but
loud

so you can cut the shit off and focus on the detail

abuse lead to distortion, which can be funny

depending on you level of confidence

"abuse lead to distortion" i wonder if
has anything to do with the fact i have no ear for
eq/mastering

might have something to do with the hearing damage though

i think i damaged one of my ears, cus when i play loud music
sometimes i can hear a flap flap flap, you know like when
you've fucked a speaker and it starts rattling? same thing
but it's my ear not the speaker

wearing one headphone and cranking it so that i could still
have a conversation, pointless really.

its actually pretty minor - but i dont get much high end in
the right ear - left ear is perfectly fine far as i can
tell

its definitely a noticeable difference in sound, but not
really serious, have had a bit of tinnitus although rarely.

also: my profession requires the use of very loud air tools,
and i rarely use hearing protection unless i am using the
air hammer. Way better than a conventional hammer.

Better looking too.

wait, so you hear sounds while wearing headphones?

can you hear the crank handle sound, kind of whistle sound
that plays after the second chord comes into Curtains?

and the volume automation near twenty seconds? it's the
sound of the silence between notes

i've got tinninius too but i don't care, i know the level
how to play my music, but sometimes i seems to forget it.
those times i've got the doubt that i hear less those times.
or it's the doubt to flap in this thread?

i would wear the right side of the headphones on but have
the other side off to the back of my head, so only the right
side was getting sound.

i am terrible with track names. artist/album?

i am very hesitant to upgrade the soundsystem in my car
because i know i would exceed the recommended volume
intakes. right now it can go to as loud as i need it -
although there just isnt enough bass to persuade the bowels.
