Public Image Ltd. – Memories Lyrics 6 years ago
This song and Careering are tied for my favorite songs off of Metal Box. I think this song is about John having an extremely hard time dealing with his past. The first half of the song seems directed to a particular individual in his life, while the last half is him manically going back and forth between deciding whether to cast off these memories.
Examples:
This person's had enough of useless memories ... Always remember
I let you stay too long ... I could be wrong
I think this song is an underrated masterpiece. The bouncing bass in the beginning is so perfect followed by Levene's super random guitar which seems to burrow its way into your consciousness (memory?).

Throbbing Gristle – Six Six Sixties Lyrics 6 years ago
@[thunderperfectmind:31874] Wow that is very interesting. After hearing this song several times, I've concluded this is a voice speaking from "hell" who is lamenting their unfortunate situation. Saying "Just" at the end of the song is the speaker confirming that they are actually deserving of the misery being described in the song. Definitely gets creepier to more you listen and think about it.
