Default What's your favorite opening line from an album?

Thought about this hard and I think for me it's "I am the Astro-Creep"

did you guys know that rob ripped off this weird micro-genre of UK music known as "grebo" when he toured the UK for the first time?

"The Grebo fashion style was dreadlocks, partially shaved heads and high ponytails, undercut or shaved long hair, leather bike jackets and/or jeans, baggy clothing, boots, lumberjack shirts, loose tatty jeans, army surplus clothing, and eccentric hats and scarfs."

i can't recall off the top of my head who the guy that Rob ripped his look and style from directly but it's driving me nuts and i'll find it

Grebo (or grebo rock)[1] was a short-lived subgenre of alternative rock[2] that incorporated influences from punk rock, electronic dance music, hip hop and psychedelia. The scene occupied the period in the late 1980s and early 1990s in the United Kingdom before the popularisation of Britpop and grunge.[3] The genre and its attributes were largely absorbed into industrial rock, which would emerge after the sub-genre's demise in the late 1980s, which then led to the development of industrial metal in the 1990s.

Cool

This is difficult since it's "opening line" and not "lines," or maybe I'm being overly restrictive to make it more interesting, and maybe my third one's a stretch but it's like one "sentence," right? Fuck you
  1. It's Britney, bitch
  2. Everything's so easy for Pauline
  3. If you ever get close to a human and human behavior, be ready, be ready to get confused, ammmmeeeeeandmahheyatuh [approx.]
