Would you ever write for like rockstar!eddie and reader like maybe she's an actor or something or she's his high-school sweet heart and even after he got famous he stayed with her
rockstar! eddie x wife! reader
OMG, ok so you caught my attention. i’ve always wanted to write for rockstar! eddie. i also daydreamed a lot that the reader is his wife (and yes, his highschool sweetheart as well) you know like that bombshell wife that even his fans simp for her as well, gets featured in some magazines and shows. alongside tour interviews and such.
i can imagine the dynamic between them sort of like ozzy & sharon (without the major toxicity but the yelling is there) but overall, you’re just one hella of a wife to corroded coffin’s frontman. and he’s very proud to show you off every interview he gets.
this time they’re doing a reality tv one! like the Osbourne’s.
suggestive themes under the cut
。・:*˚:✧。
another day in the munson household… 
“eddie!” you shouted amidst the large canopy of the munson LA mansion. the camera man swerves the camera to eddie munson’s face, eddie fucking munson, leader of one of the grossing rock bands alive in the 90’s. he lets out a sigh as he can hear your heels stomp against the hardwood large stairs as he looks to the camera with a smirk, counting in his head for your barge in as he speaks. it was another filming day for their own reality tv show, his manager urged him to do this, fans demanding wanting to know more about him and his darling wife. you.
“ah, and here comes my smoking hot angry wife—“
the door slams open inside the studio room, the camera whips to you. all dolled up, fresh from your make-up room, wearing a very tight dress that hugged your body nicely. he wasn’t even focused on the terrifying anger written on your pretty face, just that he’s very focused now on your chest. the camera man backs away, slightly scared, seeing as you had something in your hand. fan mail apparently! tons of it in your hand as the other was situated on your hip, very angry stance.
it was cute to him.
“baby, darling.” he greeted with a smirk, urging your hothead to come closer to him, he was sitting on his office chair, the one he always sat on whenever he would spend nights in this studio room to write or compose a song.
“send panties in the mail! panties? are you out of your fucking mind!?” you threw the mail at him, huffing and puffing with anger. the camera man captured this one moment they all knew would be another hit on mainstream. your fights with eddie were certainly a blockbuster for every corroded coffin fan, plus you were hot in it.
“sweetheart, chill! i meant it as a fucking joke, geez—“
another mail was thrown at him, this time he can clearly see the lace of some fan’s panties were peeking out. oh, was he dead. he is popular with the ladies, you were very hyperaware of that and you despised some groupies for getting a lil’ close during concerts or meet-ups, mainly the obsessed ones you couldn’t stand, but they’re not the wife. you are, so in perspective, you won when it comes to them. and you trust eddie, he’s not that stupid.
“baby, what did you expect? they’re fucking crazy.” he snorts, tossing the mail away. you crossed your arms, boobs squishing, eddie gawked at it with no shame.
“you’re laughing at this? i can’t believe you! you’re such an ass—“ you pouted, fuming red in your eyes. eddie shook his head as he grabbed your arm, knowing well you were going to calm down once he gets in you in his lap. you noticed it.
“that’s not gonna fucking work—“
“try me.” he hums, wrapping his arms around your waist as you sat snuggly. leaning your back against his naked chest littered with tattoos, your name tattooed above his heart. your face somehow manage to soften yet still annoyed at how it worked. munson charm. damn him.
“you okay, baby?” he asks kissing your neck, looking to the camera with a wink and a smirk.
“i will strangle you.”
“i thought that was for the bedroom—“
“i will shove this remaining mail up your ass if you open your mouth again.” you warned, pinching his arm. he yelped at how sharp your nails were as you sighed, simmering down now as he placed kisses on your bare shoulder. the expensive scent of your perfume and body wash making him buck his hips up a bit. so addicting. the camera focuses on the sweet moment as you rubbed your forehead, a headache coming in.
“oh, baby. ‘m sorry.” he cooed.
“don’t.” you huffed. “i don’t like this.” you emphasized to the mails on the ground.
“ ‘course baby, i haven’t even fucking opened them yet.” he place a sloppy kiss on your neck. “and i never will. if that makes up for it.”
“thank you, eds.” you sighed in relief. his heart bloomed as he winked to the camera again. mouthing ‘munson charm’.
“gotta remind them, sweetheart, you’re my wife. nothing’s gonna come between that, ey? not even fucking panties.” he reminds you, grasping your chin to look at him. reminding you how many years you two have been together, since highschool, since that incident back in the upside down, being each other’s first experiences and all. you are the love of his life.
his large thumb caressing your bottom crimson lip. you nodded silently, still a little annoyed, his handsome grin widen as he kissed you. tongue and all, still not ashamed he’s showing this intimate moment on camera then probably on television soon. you wriggled, feeling the bulge in his sweatpants form. you hummed on his mouth, liking the sloppiness as you pulled away, all shy now noticing the camera again.
“and stop sending me panties!” he pointed to the camera. “i’m flattered, but i got plenty already.” he joked, earning a smack from you again. the camera man eventually said cut as you both relaxed in each other’s arms.
“today’s film was great, mr. & mrs. munson. thank you so much.” the cameraman smiled nervously as you smiled back widely, still seated on eddie’s lap.
“no problem, lemonade’s downstairs in the kitchen. help yourself!” you kindly offered as eddie placed kisses again on your neck. hot and heavy he is, it was such a turn-on whenever you got mad at him. the door closed shut as eddie finally got a breather. focusing on you now and his ache in his pants.
“so sexy today, baby.” he mumbles, voice low and deep. “getting you all riled up.”
“mhm. if you ever say stupid shit to your fans, munson. i will kick you out.” you hummed tilting your neck to the side as he nipped your soft skin making you let out a quiet whimper.
“hey, they love you getting mad as well, can’t blame ‘em.” he laughs, squeezing your boobs. the fans were crazy for you as much as they are for him. you chuckled remembering the time you got featured on the front page of playboy magazine, everyone went wild. eddie was fuming at that time but he didn’t hide the fact that he bought at least numerous copies of it, supporting your fame. “you’re such a fucking bombshell. ‘m so lucky.”
“i swear, eddie!” you swatted his hands away as he whined.
“i promise!” he laughs heartily as you smiled again. a moment of silence transpires, you two have been together since ‘86, the large mansion was awfully lonely when he’s away on tour, leaving you here sometimes. you love him, really. since the day he clumsily asked you out by the bench in the woods. supporting him throughout, until his band got in with a label. signing them up. being his soulmate, sticking with him until now. something was just missing in the munson household. the thought a important one for you, and you knew clearly what you wanted next. knowing eddie gives you everything.
“what do you think about a little munson running around here, eds?”
。・:*˚:✧。
wrote this in one sitting!

what about 141 with reader who's very old-school. Listens to metal and rock, dresses like a rocker from the 80s, has cassette tapes and vinyls, doesn't use technology etc. I'm like that and everyone always makes fun of me. 😭
That's cool as shit. Also I'm sorry I kind of sidetracked and I wasn't really sure how to approach this... so if it's not what you wanted anon I'm very sorry.
Price 🥃
He thinks it's very cool. He doesn't meet a lot of recruits who aren't glued to their cellphones all the time. Of course while you couldn't get around not having one, you preferred not to use it. It was something he liked about you. Something that made you you.
Now... He would be lying if he said going into your room or your office makes him feel old as shit. Like really fucking old.
He pulls a vinyl record off your shelf and whistles in surprise. "Hey I used to have this..." And then it hits him. "Oh..." He's so bloody old.
He walks out of there with trauma. Every time he sees you walking around with a walkman or sees that Nokia you have displayed on your shelf he has a mid life crisis.
He likes the old songs you listen to, and hearing how you know the words to every 80's song really does bring him back to when his father would play it. Wasn't a huge memory, but it was something familiar in a way.
For your birthday he finds an old record player, yes, he was searching forever. But he found an old record player so now you could play the vinyls how they were intended.
And oh dear Lord the cassette tapes. He got PTSD from going to blockbuster and finding out no one had rewinded the tape before he rented it. Nightmares. Nightmares!! He picks one up and relays the horrors of going to blockbuster at eight at night, getting out near ten for your movie night and finding out you had to spend half an hour rewinding the bloody tape.
He had a lot to say about cassette tapes.
As far as your clothes go he doesn't really think about it much. He thinks some of them are impractical for training and such, along with questioning their durability. But whatever you want to wear he doesn't much care.
Sometimes Price hears the other recruits making fun of you. And he doesn't really understand it. It's nothing different from an older generation saying kids are stuck to their phones. What mattered was you liked it, and you were happy. Simple as that.
A good slap on the wrist from Captain Price gets them to shut up for a while.
He likes that you live how you want to despite the mean people around you.
Ghost 💀
Ghost never really had any technology even when it did start to come out late 80's early 90's. He does remember his brother eventually getting a phone and the old Gameboy he had at one point.
Yes. He is old enough. He had a walkman. The childhood memories he got from seeing that thing was horrendous. He remembered how after a while of trying to block out any noise with them, (which they weren't good for) his ears would start to hurt.
But it wasn't bad. He liked seeing the old vinyls and you seemed to know more than he did. Which wasn't a surprise really.
Your office reminded him of his father's in a way. The back shelf behind your chair stacked neatly with the rows of vinyls and their covers all so well taken care of. The record player from Price off in the corner whenever you wanted some music on just to relax.
They never watched many movies when he was younger, but he remembered when his brother would take his hand and guide him down the rows of shelves in the local blockbuster before their shared curfew so they could get some movies, and Tommy would usually try to sneak a more adult film in between the children's classics and things of that nature.
Your room also gives him PTSD. But only in the way of remember how awful it was. How the static on the tv would make the inside of his brain itch or how uncomfortable those walkman headphones were. Or remembering that space invaders game his brother would play when he was little. A lot of memories he didn't expect to have triggered.
But he thinks it's really cool. He recognizes bands that were really popular. Maybe you were a Rolling Stones kinda kid, maybe you were more into Metallica and such. Hell even Nirvana though it's more early 2000's.
(he might even steal one of your posters) shhh, you saw nothing!
You two jam out a lot. As a rock fan it would be only fair that the two of you were to listen to music together.
Loves your clothes. If they would ever fit him he'd steal them from you. But I don't think he'd so easily slip into them. Something he's sad about.
But if he ever hears anyone talking bad about you he's ready to give someone a good talk with the sharp end of his knuckles. Seriously, if they have the balls to talk shit about his sergeant, his friend, he's coming for them.
He won't let them tell you you're weird or other things because you're being who you want to be. Their just cowards.
Gaz 🧢
Now I think this one is tricky. Kyle was born roughly around when Walkmans started to become less popular so he never had any of the things Price or Simon did. However he did have an old cassette receiver where he used to watch old movies his grandma had bought or played some of the old games.
But your room. He loves your room. All the posters of old bands and records. The cassette player for your movies and stuff.
You also had a guitar that you occasionally played, he really liked that.
All the retro stuff like game figurines and what have you. All the cool clothes you have. If that really comfy AC/DC sweater you have goes missing. It's not a gremlin, just Gaz.
Also willing to just come to your room and jam out with your music. Also brings over some of his old games and convinces you to play them with him.
He thinks it is cool. You carry around a walkman and an old radio player for music and he enjoys them.
He is mostly interested in the bands you're into. He doesn't open up a whole lot but when he sees you playing these old songs he feels happy coming to you with CDs of jazz songs and older songs he likes to listen to. And it helps you two bond.
Let's be honest, he steals more of your old retro stuff from you than everyone else. Which is a surprise. He'll always leave you a little note telling you which tape set he stole or which thing he took from the dark reaches of your closet and how long he plans to have it be stolen for.
But you guys are besties like that. He wouldn't do it if he knew you wouldn't be even a little comfortable.
He's a property stealer just as much as Johnny is. That's the point. It just takes certain stuff for him to want to borrow it.
If he hears people bullying you, he's either squaring up right there. His gun does all the talking. He doesn't have to say anything, a good barrel in the face usually has them quieting down.
His second option is to cyber bully them to hell and back. So you're in good hands. Don't let those things get to your head or Gaz is gonna do some insane shit.
Soap 🧼
Doesn't know what half the shit in your room is. He's a baby, born just when that stuff started to fade from mainstream media and his pea sized brain couldn't register any of it.
A walkman? What the fuck is that?
Cassette tape?? Blockbuster?? What the actually fuck are you telling him. He's a smart little cookie but he's lost on this one. Like couldn't you just get a CD??
He isn't arrogant about it. But growing up in a traditional Scottish household he didn't have technology. He didn't have his first phone until 15, so he doesn't know what half these things are.
Hanging around Simon he knows the bands like AC/DC and Metallica, more 90's groups but he knows. He's seen a vinyl in his dad's room before but that's about it.
Loves your clothes. Absolutely loves them! He is dying to wear them, if they'll fit him that is... Maybe he'll buy something similar.
Is the guy who will buy a Nirvana shirt and know none of the songs just so he can match with you.
Again, a little property stealer. Snags a poster or two thinking you won't notice. A sweater or two during the fall. And if they don't fit him he's buying the exact same one off Amazon for 30$ don't test him.
He likes to learn about all the music you like. As the kid who was also raised in the outdoors. Sacrificing his life for little league football and Scouting in Scotland. He totally understands you not having the biggest hook over technology.
He doesn't really either.
The technology people of your group are surprisingly (not really) Ghost and Gaz. Give Johnny a few bombs and an open field and he's a happy camper. No technology required.
So he thinks it's awesome too. He definitely likes your style and always wants to know more. He wants to get into your hobbies and know all the knowledge he possibly can.
Tell. Him. Everything.
He's feral. If he hears any nonsense they better get ready to square up right there and then. He's tired of hearing people discredit others so a good punch without warning and those idiots are knocked out.
But he's also the prankster, so you give him a name and he will torture that recruit and their friends for a month with the insane stuff he can pull.
Price knows it's Soap, but without the recruits having concrete proof there is nothing to be done. And he thinks it's hilarious this time around.

The End of Weird Anime
Tumblr media
What happens to 80s & 90s anime that arent streaming right now when VHS & DVD completely go away?
The obsession with micro everything, everythings a sound bite, everything is 5 to 7 seconds, even songs, the chorus IS the song now, noone else ever hears anything else.
Only sports, reality TV and competition games can be watched week to week in real time.
All TV series now have to be immediately binged and consumed.
Its essentially bulimia.
Binge Loki in a weekend. Binge Ahsoka in a weekend. Its already done.
Whats next.
What else can I feed the machine with.
No waiting week to week. No such thing as a cliffhanger. No anticipation. No guessing whats next. No watching together as an audience.
Everything segmented, everything bifurcated, nothing in real time, nothing communal.
No season finale, no season premiere.
Same with anime.
Its not VHS or DVD anymore.
Youre not waiting for a release.
Its crunchyroll and Netflix and Funimation and Hulu and streaming.
Its the entire season of Psycho Pass all at once whenever I want to binge and gorge myself.
No asking to be taken to the mall.
No driving to Suncoast Video.
No deciding which $30 VHS or DVD to ask to be bought.
Martian Successor Nadesico or Ayashi no Ceres?
Everything is accessible.
Its less for 3 months of streaming anime than 1 anime used to cost on VHS or DVD.
No downside, if it sucks, move on.
Its not even the old school illegal Crunchyroll which was essentially Limewire for anime where you could illegally download different series.
I didnt waste time downloading for hours on my brothers computer for a shitty anime.
I didnt risk getting a virus on my brothers computer.
I dont have to clear up space.
I dont have to waste time.
I dont have to spend money.
I dont have to risk anything.
I dont have to exert any effort.
Its just, on to the next.
What does the algorithm say a Demon Slayer fan should watch next?
What should I watch now that Attack on Titan is over per the almighty algorithm?
No Viz anime catalogue to pore through.
No RightStuf catalog to highlight and fold the corners of the pages of.
No Animerica to read through every month once it arrives in the mail.
No going through AOL message boards and anime ezboards and geocities and angelfire websites to try to determine what to watch next.
No asking to be taken to your local Blockbuster to check the newest anime rentals in the "Independent/Foreign" section.
Just scroll, select, click and move on.
No need to even download and delete.
Its all streamable, instantly consumed, immediately binged then thats it.
On to the next algorithmic recommendation.
The algorithm never ends.
It always has another suggestion for you.
No meticulously going through myanimelist.com, putting up the hundreds of anime youve watched so far then scouring everyone elses lists to get ideas for new anime to watch.
Whats next after Vision of Escaflowne?
What should I watch after Yuu Yuu Hakusho?
Tumblr media
If I can get a ride to the flea market on 18, I wonder what else they'll have similar to Dangaioh & Orguss 02?
To Macross Plus?
I wonder if Sci-Fi Channels Anime Week Festival will show something similr to Iria Zeiram or Armitage III this year.
Ninja Scroll was amazing, I wish I could see Wicked City since its by the same director, Yoshiaki Kawajiri. But I know I wont be allowed to. I had to sneak watch Ninja Scroll at my friends house and her older brother had bought it and thats the only way I even got to see Ninja Scroll at 13.
Tumblr media
Everyone talks about Sailor Moon but noone talks about Bubblegum Crisis 2032.
Why not? The Knight Sabers are cooler than the Sailor Scouts and Ill take a cool motorcyle riding ass kicking punk rock singer like Priscilla Asagiri over a whiny, annoying, immature Serena any day. I dont care that shes 14 like me. Shes freaking annoying and a crybaby.
Tumblr media
I wonder what other anime are like 8 Man After. It was so hard-boiled and dystopian and futuristic.
Tumblr media
What happens to 80s & 90s anime that arent streaming right now when VHS & DVD completely go away?
When laptops and videogame systems are discless?
Then what?
What happens when Crunchyroll, Netflix and Hulu dont want to pay to license some amazing anime that are hidden gems?
In 25 years, when very few VCRS and DVD players and video game systems and laptops that can play VHS tapes and discs are still in circulation and functioning, then what happens?
What their plan has been this whole time: we will only have access to watch what the streaming companies CHOOSE to pay the license for to stream.
We will lose everything else.
We'll lose Cybernetics Guardian, Genocyber, Twilight of the Dark Master, Robot Carnival, Vision of Escaflowne, Iria Zeiram, Armitage III, Saber Marionette J, Martian Successor Nadesico, 8 Man After, Lensman, Demon City Shinjuku, Fancy Lala, Tekknoman, Full Metal Panic...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Only the biggest hits, the most iconic series, the most controversial OVAs and movies will survive in the brand new streaming world devoid of any physical VHSs and DVDs.
Only the Akiras, Neon Genesis Evangelions, Urotsuki Dojis, Berserks, Gantzs, Sailor Moons, Dragon Ball Zs, Pokemons, Gundams, Bleaches, Narutos and Spirited Aways will survive to be streamed.
What about the Serial Experiments Lain?
Tumblr media
What about the Nausicaa of the Valley Winds?
What about the Angel Sanctuarys?
What about the Please Save My Earths?
What about the Here is Greenwoods?
Will they be lost forever?

So, for a good....maybe 87% of my life, this one specific scene from the 90s animated sequel movie "Fievel Goes West", has lived rent free in my head. And thing is, despite that I have not actually sat down and WATCHED the film as an adult. And. I finally saw a clip of it on YT and well...just look at it.
youtube
No but really look at it. Look at this brief comedic 'hero training' montage clip, and you realize this simple, cute little family blockbuster sequel, had WAY much more mind-blowing effort put in than it ever had to.
-To start, that clearly is the famous classical music piece "Hoedown" being used to inspire the soundtrack here, but it's being made somehow almost even more triumphant and fast in a span of under a minute.
youtube
That kind of 'cleverly deliberate homaging classical well known songs but not so much it's obvious or a ripoff' scoring takes a compositional genius. You don't know it's even in there til you listen for it! Exactly as bone-chilling good to listen to as the original and as much now as it was decades ago. My brain was shocked that it still evoked shivers, watching a fat orange cat doing rope tricks. Speaking of which-
THEY DREW THIS. And PAINTED ALL THIS.
Tumblr media
Every single bit of it OVER. AND OVER AGAIN. BY HAND.
Tumblr media
Watch this clip again, slowed down. Watch all of this cat's many tiny fur tufts and fat rolls, and the wrinkles and expressive motions on this sheriff dog character. Someone had to draw all those moving around. They never had to. Who is the madman responsible for this. It wasn't some iconic Disney legend like Milt Kahl, and we know Do .Bluth was not here, so who the hell was it!
-The whiskers on Fievel and his tail being unnecessarily curled and punching IN TIME TO THE SONG as he is rooting his friend on.
-All these 'mummy' ropes, and the shadow on them.
-The shafts of light and the falling dirt and cave water drips at the beginning when Tiger prances about mockingly in the mine tunnel entrance.
-At 2:17 the bottle glass all reflecting OUR view of Tiger then shattering and the smoke on his slingshot and the excessively cool way Tiger twirls it around and then pockets it like a gun, complete with "action movie/fancy anime fight" style camera panning round and down his body in towards the holster.
-Look at the part at 2:06 with the punching dummy, from the clouds of dust and tiny straw bits that fly out when Tiger hits it, to all the different camera angles and the way they chose to bounce from third to first to third person again: look at when Tiger rushes up at the scarecrow with a pitchfork. They add 'camera shake' as a way to simulate the off balanced way he as a fat, clumsy, but now highly enthused excitable character specifically would run!
-ALL THOSE FEATHERS
Tumblr media
OH MY GOD
Tumblr media
They drew the movement of ALL THOSE FUCKING ***FEATHERS!!!!😱***
This isn't even a major scene. But it's taken so thoroughly seriously. This is pure art. This is pure gluttonous showing off. That is brilliant. I really cannot believe how strong this lives up.
Well done brain, you rightfully deserved pushing this on me for so many years.

All I Have To Give
“Crush” Masterlist
A/N: So "From the Bottom of My Broken Heart" came on shuffle and it made me think of young Benny. My headcanon is Benny absolutely loves pop music, particularly boybands in the late 90s-early 2000 era. Also that he's a hopeless romantic and everything kinda fell into place with him in the "Crush" universe. Hope you enjoy this little cute piece about Benny with pop songs sprinkled in there.
Rating: G
Word Count: 559
Pairing: Benny Miller & BFF! GN!Reader (reader is F in some of the other fics, but this can be read as GN), Benny Miller x OCs (named and unnamed)
Plot: Benny’s got all the love to give and he's been trying to find someone to give it all to.
Contains: Benjamin being a hopeless romantic and some late 90s-early 2000 pop music references
Tumblr media
There goes your best friend nervously walking up to the waitress who's been the apple of his eye for the last two months. He thinks that her memorizing his usual order is a sign she's interested. You don't want to burst his little bubble letting him know she also memorized yours.
That lover boy is the most hopelessly romantic person you've ever met - to a fault. Once he falls in love, he gets tunnel vision and obsesses over them. You blame it on pop music. He'll never publicly admit it, but the Backstreet Boys are his favorite boyband. He never learns his lesson though. His heart has been broken so many times, you're sure it has turned into sand. You gotta admire him though. All these rejections and heartaches never deters him from looking for love again. He's just a puppy. Literally. Give him head pets and treats, and he'll eat out of the palm of your hands.
You remember in the summer after sophomore year, on the last day of school, Ben worked up the courage to ask his current crush at the time, Kristina out after being the Invisible Man all year. He even got a summer job so he knew he'd have money to take her out. She said yes, and after a few dates, you both saw her getting cozy with a different blonde - Jaime Carter, who had a resemblance to Nick Carter. He would even tell girls that he's related to him, which you both knew was bullshit.
That summer, you must have heard Britney's "From the Bottom of my Broken Heart" more times than any song ever. NSYNC's "Bye Bye Bye" was a close second. As much as he loved "Show Me The Meaning of Being Lonely", the reminder of Nick Carter made it worse. Lover Boy was hurting and pop music was his way to soothe his heart.
Then a month later, Linda walked into the doors of his job and subsequently, into his life. As he described it to you, it was like a movie moment. It happened in slow motion while Savage Garden’s “I Knew I Loves You” played in the background. When summer ended, so did his time with Linda when she went back home. She was only in town to visit family. Gone.
Once school started again, and the new girl became the new object of his affection. He worked up the courage to ask her to the Junior Winter Wonderland Bash and Christmas came early for him when she said yes. Couple of months later, he felt like his death came early when she became someone else's valentine. All or Nothing.
Then there was Tina from the music store, Becky from the movie theater, Maria from Blockbuster, Vivian at the bowling alley. Rinse, recycle and repeat. This went well into adulthood.
And today? No different. You watch Benny as he makes his way back to the booth with an extra pep in his step.
"I got her number!" Benny flashes the napkin along with his teeth.
"Good job!" You high five him and tussle his hair. "You want the rest of my fries?" you offer.
"Oooh!" His eyes light up and his ears perk up as he digs in.
20 years later and still a puppy. And every time, you hope he gets his fairytale ending.

I feel like the current state of mainstream movies is similar to the state of American rock music in the late 80s. Allow me to give you a quick rock history lesson.
Basically, by the late 80s you had studios that had learned how to create Van Halens and Def Leppards by the dozen. Take four decently attractive white guys, throw them in tights and hairspray and eyeliner, give them some stupid 4-chord song about hot girls, and you were guaranteed a round of radio hits from about 1984-1989.
But people got tired of it. And the studios took waaaay too long to figure this out. They kept pumping out hair metal into the 90s, way beyond when the point where the genre was a joke to most people.
Here is every single one of those bands looked like, just for context:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is the point we are currently reaching with mainstream blockbusters. We are in the era of movies that are the spiritual equivalent of like, Ratt.
But you know what happened around 1990? Grunge happened. And it sounded a bit shit and the guys dressed like homeless people but it exploded in popularity because people were so starved for rock music that actually meant something. Nirvana actually had something to say. They were real and genuine and even the young kids could sense that.
This is what Nirvana looked like:

So you can imagine how strange it would have been to see them amongst the other rockers.
This is all a gross oversimplification that ignores a lot of other contemporary music but I think it's a good lesson for mainstream media moguls. You can only keep the diarrhea machine running for so long before a bunch of freaks shatter your whole system just by daring to be unique and sincere.

minor barbie movie spoilers
it means a very lot to me that the big throwback song from the barbie movie is “closer to fine” by the indigo girls
so for those of you who don’t know cause this is kind of old queer lore, the indigo girls were this lesbian folk duo from the american south in the 80s and 90s
“closer to fine” is in general terms a song about coming to terms with your identity but of course it’s pretty much agreed on that it’s about coming to terms with your sexuality
so idk im just really excited that this very queer country folk song from a semi-obscure queer folk band who have not come up in the cultural conversation for a while is in the biggest blockbuster of the year being introduced to a new queer audience

Tonight’s Halloween movie is The Blob (1958)! Is it really a Halloween movie? No, it was a summer blockbuster. But it has a title song that I think belongs in Halloween party playlists by virtue of being about a monster, so close enough!
The Blob is one of the more memorable films in the ‘50s sci-fi sub genre of “small town teenagers discover a monster but can’t get the adults to listen to them,” movies and is in many ways an outlier: it’s in color for one, and has an unusually creative monster, and surprisingly good special effects, and it’s Steve McQueen’s first starring role, though I think his inexperience shows as he’s not, in my opinion, particularly good here. It was also originally intended to be a horror-comedy, and so keeps pausing from the Blob eating people to do bits about the teens goofing around and the small town cops using the radio to play chess with neighboring stations on slow nights and whatnot.
I actually started this movie earlier because I remembered it as rather slow and thought it would be good background for paperwork, only to find myself getting distracted by it being much better than I remember. I’m now giving it a full watch, so we’ll see if I initially misjudged it and it’s good all the way through, or it’s one of those movies that starts strong and gets dull in the middle. I almost don’t see how it could, though, it’s only 82 minutes.
Watching mostly older movies this Halloween season means I’ve been watching a lot of films that are less than 90 minutes long and it’s really starting to feel like this was the Correct length for movies to be. I’ve never wished one of these was longer the way I frequently wish modern movies were shorter.
Anyway, The Blob!
youtube
Full disclosure warning: this is one of the movies that even the website “does the dog die?” doesn’t know if the dog dies. We see it imperiled, we cut away, we never learn it’s fate. The website marks it as, “probably.”

How did you get into tmnt? From the 90's movies, my mom loved the 90's movie and we watched it often. I have early memories of my older sister and I play out along with Mikey and Donnie when they are dancing to the tequila song. It was often a movie we always would rent when getting movies from Blockbuster too along with Sailor Moon XD. We have some of the 87 series on VHS as well but I always wanted more then I wanna saw the two episodes recorded? so when 4kids started airing commercials for the 03 show? of course I wanted to watch it!

Raphael: stinky bastard man, throw him into a bath for a week, Or ship him off to sea. Man needs a serious time out, needs a good long think for all his damn crimes. For someone who likes to act like the strong silent type boy sure is always ready to so damn rude and open his beak when he don't need to. He will give you his thought rather you want them or not and mostly because he knows you don't want them. Thinks hes mister tough guy but runs at the sight of a fly and becomes mush often for cute animals. He aint scary he just like a little dog that loves to bark and pick fights.

You wrote about some of your favorite SuperHero Theme Music. But do you have any thoughts to share on PULP HERO Theme Music? What would you consider the best ones?
Is there such a thing as "pulp hero music" the way there is "superhero music", though? What even is superhero music?
When people talk about what a "superhero theme" is, it’s this general idea that usually boils down to "epic orchestral music marked by big brass fanfares and punctuated by strings or piano", which is hardly exclusive to superheroes, that’s just what Heroic Film Music sounds like. But that's what’s imprinted in the general consensus of what a "superhero" theme is supposed to sound like. It's the John Williams Superman, the Prince Valiant score, the Robin Hood fanfare, the thing that plays when the superhero shows up to save the day in grand style, the thing that composers reference or contrast from because that, and what that theme is taken from, are imprinted on us as musical ways to express Superhero.
It’s what the Invincible theme has in common with the Justice Society theme for Black Adam (or the Black Adam theme proper), or parts of the Spiderverse soundtrack, and so on. Different themes communicating different things about different characters, but they are Superhero Theme Songs who share that big grand brass element in common as the unifying baseline they’re all spinning variants on, whether it’s Black Adam’s God of War wrestling entrance music, Spiderverse’s hip hop elements or Invincible’s melancholic triumph of piano and string. It’s Epic Film Orchestra / Trailer Music, far from exclusive to superheroes, but if you’re doing a Superhero Theme Song, it’s what you’re most likely to riff on to communicate that, and that’s the key here, what it communicates. Music is language and communication and that’s not just a cute euphemism.
A songstress and composer friend of mine told me once that it’s good to think of music in terms of Question and Answer, that every part of it is a series of questions followed by answers, one-twos, every song builds it’s own thesis, every silence matters just as much as the sounds, the notes you don’t play and all that, and this is the answer of What Does "Superhero” Sound Like. That all of these songs use that unifying element is important, not just because it’s catchy film music or because of the associations we make, but because they are Superhero Theme Songs and they need to be identifiable as such even when they have to do different things. The Epic Superhero Brass is to superhero theme songs what the skintight costumes and capes is to superhero design: not obligatory, but a recognizable keystone, a very useful reference point to have as your bread and butter, and something you can’t ignore.
So where does that leave the pulp heroes? What’s the musical bread and butter for them?
Tumblr media
Well, most of them had their heydays in a period long before that language was established, before we built up the baseline of what Heroic Theme Songs are meant to sound like en masse, with radio characters using pre-arranged classical compositions and most never making the jump to film serials or film at all. It would be mainly in their sporadic revivals over the decades that some of these characters would receive official theme songs to begin with, primarily in the 90s but also with odd instances like The Green Hornet’s iconic tv show trumpet theme, Doc Savage’s movie march and, of course, FLASH *cymbal noise - A-AAAAH, and of course these are all over the place stylistically in no conversation with each other whatsoever.
The 90s are particularly important here specifically because it was that attempt to bring these characters back en masse to play catch up with the blockbusters that led to a lot of them being given new theme songs, and of course since most of them were following in the footstep of Burton’s Batman as well as Indiana Jones and Star Wars (there goes John Williams again), they were given theme songs with what seems to be a more “serial score / Old Hollywood / King Kong” vibe but with added twist. Less “what those films sounded like”, and more “what we think they sounded like”. Kinda like how a lot of film noir homages make extensive use of jazz, even though most film noir didn’t have jazz-based scores: it’s to sell A Vibe.
You hear some of this with The Grey Ghost’s theme used for Batman TAS, David Newman’s Phantom score, Elfman’s Darkman, parts of the Jerry Goldsmith Shadow score. More breathless and atmospheric than epic and inspiring. Think less “You will believe a man can fly” and more “Can we survive this pit of crocodiles in time to stop the bomb?”. I think this is about as close as there even really is to something that can be called Pulp Hero Music and applied semi-generally in the way Superhero Theme Music is.
I don’t really have too many favorites here in regards to music specifically made for pulp heroes, I actually really want to take a crack at composing tracks for several of these characters in the future when I get a better hang at songwriting, but I’ll list a few that stick out to me:
The Grey Ghost theme
I still say Jerry Goldsmith’s soundtrack for The Shadow (1994) was the highlight of the film for me. In particular I reaaally love the opening notes and first minute and a half to “The Hotel”, I find it darkly hypnotic in a lowkey way that really fits the character for me.
The Rocketeer’s title theme. Incredibly romantic, easy fan favorite
The Darkman Title Theme
Veteran of the Psychic Wars by Blue Oyster Cult, one of two songs Moorcock co-wrote for them that relate to the Eternal Champion / Elric. Even when you look it up you never stop being so surprised at just how many musicians reveal themselves to be massive Elric / Moorcock nerds.
The Flash Gordon soundtrack I mean come on, it’s not fair, I like Flash Gordon allright but having Queen do your theme song is just an unfair advantage to have over every other character ever
The Defenders of the Earth opening title. I’ve never seen this show, but I have a real soft spot for these overenthusiastic corny cartoon theme songs, also I really like what this is doing with Lothar, I should watch some of this eventually. LORD OF THE JUNGLE, THE HERO WHO STALKS - THE BEASTS CALL HIM BROTHER, THE GHOST WHO WAAAALKS
The theme for The Phantom 2040.
Just remembered that we can put Phil Collins’ Tarzan soundtrack under these. Not really one of my favorites to listen to consistently but, if we’re listing some of the best of these, it is not even remotely something that can be left out.
Tumblr media
Feel free to add in the reblogs or comments anything you think is worth mentioning, like “unofficial” songs dedicated to certain characters (The Shadow and Elric get plenty of these, I’m sure Conan’s got a fair share as well) that are harder to find. I really would like to find more of these, in any sort of fashion, if possible.

CALVIN HARRIS FT. ELLIE GOULDING, "MIRACLE"
youtube
Some of us believe in miracles, some of us don't...
[5.84]
Taylor Alatorre: This song made me check if my computer was Y2K compliant. This song made me surf the alt.politics newsgroup to find out the date of the next WTO conference. This song made me "borrow" my weird friend's Prima strategy guide for Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri. This song made me call up my local PBS station to see if it had any plans to air episodes of Serial Experiments Lain. This song made me print out and annotate the lyrics to my illegally downloaded copy of NOFX's The Decline EP. This song made me contemplate making an "Acceptable in the 90's" pun. This song re-taught me HTML.</br> [9]
Leah Isobel: I need Kingdom Hearts AMVs set to this song and I need them immediately. [8]
Jonathan Bradley: It's vintage trance rather than blockbuster eurodance, but Calvin Harris's '90s pastiche is more dead-on than anything found on the Planet of the Bass. Precisely, it's a dead-on recreation of "Children" by Robert Miles, though perhaps Ellie Goulding has been recruited to provide a point of differentiation. It took one-and-a-half listens to remind my that the odd warpings of her cellophane voice go from novel to vertiginous very quickly; they might be more welcome here if they were either less glassily pristine or more. The breakbeat at the end is its own work of miniature history: the years going on and club trends shifting to drum and bass. [6]
Edward Okulicz: When I first heard this song I was sure it must be a sped-up remix thing a la Robin Schulz/Oliver Tree's "Miss You". How could it not have been? It's just so much. I would suggest that if they want to squeeze any more virality out of this song, they might get some mileage by slowing it down. But then it might lose that tasty early 00s UK mainstream chart dance-pop energy it's channelling so well. [6]
Hannah Jocelyn: This gets a [6] because the way Ellie Goulding sings "Oh No" makes me think of Webcomic Name. But also because Goulding sounds the most like herself she has in years, after eras upon eras of producers wasting her fascinating vocal timbre. How many vocalists have a soprano voice that husky? How many have that weird vibrato? Goulding's voice already sounds sped-up before Harris even touches it, and if it is sped up, I need to hear the version of "oh no" that sounds like "MacArthur Park." [6]
Crystal Leww: Calvin Harris is like the cat with nine lives of EDM, having gotten his start during the days of freaking bloghouse, blowing up during peak girly-ass EDM, continuing to thrive through the UK pop-house era, and sliding and funk waving bouncing through the late-aughts. I thought that finally he would retire to hitting the play button on prerecorded headlining sets in Vegas and Ibiza, but alas, he's hopped on trance during a time when it's back, baby. Trance's grand return is something that's been building with a very specific set of underground dance nerds for a while, in a bunch of different formats (see: the hypertrance crew, the hard trance pop song edits, and the latest point of arrival for PC Music/-adjacent gang), and Calvin Harris takes it all the way to UK #1. "Miracle" joins him back up with Ellie Goulding, who was one of his best collaborators during the peak girly-ass EDM era (twice). Goulding's vocals have always felt like an intimate whisper - they're there and they emote, but they never overwhelm - perfect for a track that needs to speed and glide on the clouds. This may be a sanded down, corners smoothed out version of whatever is happening in the underground but damn if Calvin hasn't always been good at making a hook. [6]
Nortey Dowuona: Fuck Calvin Harris and anyone who wants him to make EDM. [3]
Scott Mildenhall: In lesser hands, this would be a facsimile, losing all joy in a vain search for an excuse to exist. In the hands of experts, it is joy afresh. "Miracle" is at one with its euphoric essence, granting it the space to diffuse and reveal itself not as pastiche, but as a reminder of the power of piano presets. Ellie Goulding in trance alien mode is the perfect fit: human, but not distractingly so. [8]
Wayne Weizhen Zhang: I listened to this song twice this year, both times in the passenger seat of my middle aged uncle after not having seem him for years, stuck in traffic in Shanghai, singing along with broken English and appropriately and awkwardly bumping our heads. He thought it bumped. [6]
Ian Mathers: I can't remember if I've ever felt dismay when the beat comes in before, but on first listen that's exactly what happened. I'm not even sure why! It's not like I was much enjoying the song before that; maybe it just suddenly seemed clear this was going to be exactly what I'd expect from the combination of these two artists, neither of whom I love. It felt like I could have predicted the rest of the song from that point, and that's kind of how it played out. [3]
Jacob Sujin Kuppermann: I love dumb dance pop -- My favorite Madonna song is "4 Minutes"! This is too dumb even for me. How do you even do that? [3]
Katherine St Asaph: This kind of pop-trance was already a massively guilty pleasure for me because of the accumulated secondhand disgust of trance purists. "Miracle" has an additional source of guilt in being a pop-trance track by Calvin Harris, who has been around long enough that his releasing a Robert Miles rip this hacky has to be either condescension or a bit. Clearly I have no standards. [9]
Alfred Soto: Give me more anonymous dance tracks like "Miracle," which it isn't but it will do. Jessie Ware would do well to cast off her pearls before the swine who helped perpetuate her approximation of failed euphoria. [7]
Aaron Bergstrom: We have DJ Sammy at home. [3]
Joshua Minsoo Kim: What the hell... this literally ends right as I'm starting to believe how good it is? [4]
Brad Shoup: Feels like I should be rating the progressive-trance remix in my head, one that's 12 minutes long, shamelessly milks the piano decay and pushes Goulding to match the urgency of the BPM. She's as centered as ever, despite Harris's breakneck rave tempo: nearing the end, he tosses out some breakbeat like an anchor. But in my head, it's still going. [6]
Thomas Inskeep: I know I should be accustomed to it in 2023, but when I come across someone such as Harris who clearly has zero musical integrity, who'll do anything for hits -- well, it still catches me off-guard. And no one hops from one dance/pop trend to another faster than Harris. (Allow me to remind you that his 2007 album I Created Disco was pretty good!) Which is all to say that I shouldn't be surprised to hear "Miracle" hopping on the '90s trance revival bandwagon. He's got the ability to make it sound right, but by no means does that make this good. I disliked '90s trance at the time, and find it even more loathsome now as a big-budget no-ideas Hollywood sequel. Goulding could literally be any other female singer, as generic and over-processed as her vocals are here - and she's never been the most (ahem) distinctive singer to begin with. Truly, almost impressively awful. [1]
Will Adams: In our 2022 Amnesty post-mortem, I wrote about Romy's "Strong" and how trance music had been bubbling up in the pop landscape. Fast forward a year, and now we have mainstream acts -- Tove Lo, Icona Pop, David fucking Guetta -- all dialing up the tempos and the sawtooth synths. I should've known Calvin Harris -- who has contorted himself to align with the electronic genre du jour for over fifteen years -- would hop on the train, but "Miracle" still came as a welcome surprise. I spent better part of my tenure at the Jukebox yelling about how much I love trance, and this is no different. In the tradition of euro-trance classics, there are, at most, two key elements at play: the Robert Miles piano; the lyric "are you too cynical to believe in a miracle?" The rest is routine: the accelerated heartbeat BPM, a feather-light vocal from Goulding, reverb galore, all in service of creating that dream-like state on the dancefloor, when you close your eyes but still feel the strobe lights on you. [7]
Jackie Powell: I'll preface this by saying "Miracle" was my top song this year. When Spotify wrapped told me what I predicted was true, I wasn't surprised. "Miracle" was a song that stuck with me throughout the good and the bad in 2023. It was with me when I couldn't get out of bed, when I was driving or walking to my destination, when I was exercising, when I was transcribing an interview, and even when I was writing. I'm not the only one who proclaimed that the third Calvin Harris and Ellie Goulding collaboration was an addictive listen. It's an earworm. It's meant to be looped. Calvin Harris knows how and when to introduce new sounds, something that happens from the first verse right into the second chorus. Those introductions stimulate the brain and since I've listened to the track so many times, I can anticipate each dynamic shift and new sound that arrives. I feel like a conductor when I know exactly when the "boots and cats" percussion finally hits. The lyrics aren't really groundbreaking on this track and they aren't supposed to be. To enjoy "Miracle" at its fullest, the appreciation comes in the diverse sounds, and its velocity. Hat tip to Chromatica producer BURNS who provides the listener with a similar type of movement and constant tempo changes following the drop in "Rain on Me." But that is to say, the most stunning part of the "Miracle" experience isn't what makes it the most addicting. It's Goulding's vocals. Not only does the melody written in give her the freedom to use her voice at its most natural, but this is a song that not many other pop artists could pull off convincingly. You want to know what her voice is going to do next because it's so unpredictable. This is a track that is exemplary of the fact that Goulding is a generational talent, her unique timbres and range aren't contained but rather are given a space to play. And if you can't hear that alongside techno and Eurodance beats, have no fear: Harris and Goulding put out a "Church version" of Miracle, stripping back until this version is truly all about Goulding. There's a euphoric sound when she's harmonizing with herself during the second verse. It's so satisfying and soothing. It's so stupefying and even a bit moving. [10]

Share the dream babe. I sleep like a rock, don’t dream, and need to live vicariously.
damn that’s tough, I don’t dream a lot either but this was from a quick nap LMAO
OKAY I just want to say this was a DREAM nothing more. This shit’s not possible but bitch can a girl dream. @tvrgvryen babe you wanted to hear it so, here it is 💛🥲
SO I was with TGC in like those old shopping centres like first built in the early 2000s (very specific) and we’re just walking around like a normal couple, you know holding hands and shit. Then there was like this Blockbuster and we went to pick up some films to watch together, and we noticed this man like advertising something and all these couples heading to the back where he was. Tom was like “let’s go see babe” like begging me to go with him, and I eventually cave in.
This is where it gets weird…
So the product the guy was selling was literally a video or this tape that if you watch it you’re guaranteed to have the BEST LIKE UNEARTHLY sex ever. And Tom sees all these people just buying it, and then the guy goes “it’ll make the guys have fun & your girlfriend very fertile.” And me being me, I was like “Tom this is a scam” trying to drag him by his arm, but he was like let’s try and immediately buys it.
We then race back to our apartment and Tom immediately puts the tape on, I’m trying to put shit away but he lifts me over his shoulder and puts me down on the couch, right when the tape starts playing.
YALL WHEN I TELL YOU I CACKLED THIS NEXT PART WHEN I WOKE UP.
this shit was literally just all these like boring, 90s type of ads playing of food, like chocolate and sweets and chicken. It was so fucking weird but we both just sat and watched thinking it would be over soon and that’s when the real shit happens. The longer we waited we got into this like trance. 5 mins later, I look over at Tom and he looks back at me…
WHEN I TELL YOU I LEAPED ONTO HIS LAP, IM TELLING YOU I FUCKING LEAPT.
I was grinding so hard on his pants and he’s desperately trying to undo everything. We’re just fucking making out, tongues and all, pulling his hair and his fucking motorboating my tits.
Finally we get his pants off, and I must’ve been wearing like a really short dress, and he literally rips apart my thong and shoved his dick so fucking deep into my cunt, I swear I felt something for like a split second bitch. Anyways he’s like DESPERATE, like literally thrusting up into me, his cock fucking THROBBING. And it was weird it was like I could see us fucking from afar, like out of body.
And I can see him grabbing my ass cheeks. But his fucking groans….. ughhhhhh like it was DEEP BITCH.
Then he pins me down onto the couch so I’m laying and he’s on top & he’s still fucking raw dogging it. I’m literally moaning and screaming his name, and I’m pretty sure I called him Aegon but like he wasn’t phased funnily enough.
Then like it spans to him fucking me up the wall, like my back is against it, and he’s keeping me up with his cock still in me and his thighs supporting me and his arms holding my thighs. Still fucking raw dogging it.
Mind you those fucking ads and cheerful songs are playing in the background, it gave me like those sex pollen fanfic vibes.
ANYWHO it sort of like time jumped and he’s back on the couch like finally coming to senses and it must’ve been a full week of this non stop sex, cause our house plants look wilted and the food that was out was off now. Like he even slept with his cock in me, tiny thrusts during the night, like a dog HAHAHAH.
And I took like a pregnancy test cause I came out of it earlier than he did, so when I saw he was back to his normal self. I sat beside him and was like “I’m pregnant”, and he was just nodding and smiling, his hand gripping my thigh, and he goes “it actually worked”.
AND THAT WAS IT!!!! Didn’t even get to the domestic part 😭😭😭😭
I couldn’t take myself serious when I woke up 🤭
PS THIS IS WHAT HE LOOKED LIKE IN THE DREAM JUST FYI

One thing unique about pop culture reference heavy media in the 90s was how broad and indiscriminate it was about what was referenced. Obviously a lot of it, even then, was dedicated to referencing a small amount of Nerd Properties, but take something like MST3K. One episode might contain references to Aliens, yeah, but also old R&B songs, cereal commercials, Merchant-Ivory period dramas, The Andy Griffith Show, Adlai Stevenson and Pearl Jam. MST3K was also a local Minnesota show turned national Minnesota show and would make specific Midwestern references to Menards or University of Wisconsin-Stout. A sitcom would do a episode parodying a Harold Pinter play. Duke Nukem 3D, a FPS steeped in 90s action blockbusters, would drop a Terminator reference and a Car 54, Where Are You? joke in the same level
It's tempting to blame this on nerd culture but afaik the change actually is the fault of mainstream culture, since it became received wisdom at some point (and already was in some corners) that a joke not everyone can get right away is a failure, so as the monoculture died they narrowed things down to the few references everyone could get and we entered an environment where shows would have to cut Wario jokes in case someone didn't know who Wario was, and comedy shows became increasingly unmoored from the time they were made
