About Us


There is a good chance you found us accidentally by using the word “taint” in your search (If you found us on purpose, you deserve our accolades). Of course, we don’t know what you were looking for, but you stumbled on a damn cool project. Look around; let us help send you on a musical journey. Here you will find a number of album reviews from the strange and extreme to the tame and mainstream. Our reviewers are a bunch of obsessive miscreants. Most of us are avid music collectors and have been involved in the music world for decades. A couple of us have been in or are still in bands.

There are no rules on Tickle Your Taint Blog. Our reviewers might make you laugh, or piss you off; both results are legitimate. One reviewer might write a glowing review of an album; another might tear it apart. We may have a new review every week, or we could end up with one every six months. This blog exists as a social experiment to build community among a diverse group of music maniacs – our reviewers and hopefully you.

Hinkleyhadavision’s Funeral Songs

By Hinkleyhadavision


Below are some songs for my funeral. 


SteelDrivers, “Where Rainbows Never Die.”


To remind folks to hold onto their loved ones because time is short:

Iron and Wine, “Naked as We Came.”  

Jason Isabell, “If We Were Vampires.” 


To remember the fucking beauty: 

Steve Earle, “Me and the Eagle.”


To remind folks the struggle for a better world never ends: 

New Model Army, “Higher Wall.” 

Joseph, “Burn the White Flag” (NPR Tiny Desk Version). 


Because there is no god:

Me, “Bury Me with No Prayers.” 

It may seem pretentious to put in your own song on the list for your funeral, but I wrote this song for this reason: to make sure there would be no prayers at my funeral.
