FRENCH-KISSING THE LIGHT SOCKET: THE SOUNDTRACK
or,
THE DAN BOECKNER/SPENCER KRUG NEXUS

Wolf Parade - Same Ghost Every Night
Wolf Parade - Shine a Light
Wolf Parade - I’ll Believe in Anything
Sunset Rubdown - Magic vs Midas
Sunset Rubdown - Silver Moons
Sunset Rubdown - Idiot Heart
Sunset Rubdown - You Go On Ahead (especially the part beginning at 4:10 to the end, “add up, add up, add up”)
Not Boeckner or Krug Related, sorry, but suicide-related, trigger warning:
Fleet Foxes - Meadowlarks (re: “French-Kissing the Light Socket,” I listened to this a lot while suicidal, “hummingbird, just let me die” although I think the real lyrics are “hummingbird just let me dive”?)
Explosions in the Sky - First Breath After Coma (it’s a very uplifting hopeful song that seems to be about embracing life after an extreme difficulty but in Oct 2008 I was hearing this song, ESPECIALLY THE LAST MINUTE AND A HALF when I was thinking of doing myself in—it all seemed to make sense and I heard that guitar part echoing in my mind over and over)
