Fugazi - just a mix of old songs.

lookout123 02-03-2005 12:04 PM

Descendents - Hallraker

Griff 02-03-2005 04:53 PM

Mocean Worker - Right Now

I defy you not to move to this tune. Wait does that make any sense? It's still good have to check on who they sampled.

Kitsune 02-03-2005 06:09 PM

Why, its Lacuna Coil which, for some reason, helps me study.

Guyute 02-08-2005 08:48 PM

Phish- Slave to The Traffic Light

-----
TAAB- aahhh Jethro Tull- saw them in Montreal around '95 or so. Unreal stage presence. They played in a theater so the sound was crisper than new dollar bills. Worth every penny of the $35 CDN (back then about $12 USD nark nark)!!

latest is
 
The Duhks pronounced "ducks".

a link with options to listen to several tracks.

It turns out that Maroon 5 is not too bad after all, and just one song with audible autotune. I like this manner of white-boy funk.

It turns out that Modest Mouse is more noisy, less melodic than their single shows. I don't like it so much.

gingerstar61 02-27-2005 05:43 PM

At the moment I have N.E.R.D on my cd player, but dont judge me on this one, I have quite varied tastes.

Hey All:

Those sound tasty, but is there some way to post a link to the band's music, even a sample so I could get a taste for it?

UT:

Is it possible to post other attachments, like soundfiles, as we do for pics? I don't mean a fullblown filesharing music swap, but a taste... knowwhutamean?

Thanks.

Undertoad 02-28-2005 05:19 PM

We can do whatever we want man. Email it to me at the contact address.

Umphrey's McGee. They played Ft. Collins the other night and are my new favoritest band in the whole wide world. They're like a prog rock jam band thing. Again with the throwing my guitar in the woodchipper.\

You should love them too.

BigV 02-28-2005 05:36 PM

We went to a show in boston and saw a band called Gime Gime and the me firsts. They played all cover songs but pumped up. They were great :thumbsup:

dar512 03-01-2005 01:49 PM

Discovered a group called the Barenaked Ladies. Was very dissapointed in the liner notes. :blush:

JK. I borrowed their best-of cd from the library. Very nice mainstream rock.

Clodfobble 03-01-2005 02:16 PM

Their live performances are awesome. They make a point of improvising at least one new song at every concert. Fun stuff.

The CONET Project
 
Well, I must say that I have been HYPNOTIZED all day by the 4cd set called The CONET Project Recordings of Shortwave Numbers Stations. This is the weirdest stuff I have ever listened to. The story goes a little like this:

For more than 30 years the Shortwave radio spectrum has been used by the worlds intelligence agencies to transmit secret messages. These messages are transmitted by hundreds of “Numbers Stations”.

Shortwave Numbers Stations are a perfect method of anonymous, one way communication. Spies located anywhere in the world can be communicated to by their masters via small, locally available, and unmodified Shortwave receivers. The encryption system used by Numbers Stations, known as a “one time pad” is unbreakable. Combine this with the fact that it is almost impossible to track down the message recipients once they are inserted into the enemy country, it becomes clear just how powerful the Numbers Station system is.

Just freaky. I recommend listening in daytime with the lights on. Here's a sample. You have been warned.

wolf 03-03-2005 10:10 PM

It is entrancing. Excuse me, I suddenly have to go buy a copy of Catcher in the Rye and also investigate the interconnections between several well known political figures, an actor, and recent whale strandings.

yep.
I spent the rest of the day looking over my shoulder and jumping at shadows.

Wilco, I think, is the name of the band...did a piece called Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. The stole, not "sampled" (a euphemism if I ever heard one) from this work and lost the court fight. They had to pay $$ to Irdial or the holders of the rights to the work. But it did help catapult them onto a much larger platform (NPR) from which I was able to learn about them. So, it worked out in the end.

The final crushing irony is that Irdial now has this corporate stance: Irdial-Discs Embraces the Free Music Philosophy. All the music in their catalog is freely downloadable. Now, I haven't read the license agreement, so I don't know if that would have gotten Wilco off the hook, but it does mean I don't have to order the £40 4cd set from jolly old England. Yay for me.

In fact I downloaded the whole freakin package, including PDF liner notes (kind of a spooky read), from the Internet Archive. You'll have to type up your own search. Actually I think I'll post this in the Cool Site of the Day thread too.

Enjoy!http://www.cellar.org/images/newsmilies/nervous.gif

American Analog Set is really good. An ex-coworker turned me onto them. And the Postal Service, and the LLama Farmers.
Cool band names are few and far between.

House Party - Dan Zanes

This CD was a Christmas gift for the kids, but I pop it in when I'm home alone too. It's far better than the typical kid's crap out there, and it holds it's own with "adult" music.

Dan Zanes, for those who don't know, was in the Del Fuegos, he has lots of guests appear on his CDs, which are recorded in his basement studio. Bob Weir and Deborah Harry are two of the guests that appear on this one.

Kitsune 03-14-2005 08:52 PM

I'm listening to this right now:

When my belly starts a-rumblin', and I'm jonesin' for a treat.
I close my eyes for a big surprise, the Tendercrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch.
I love the Tendercrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch, the breasts they grow on trees.
And streams of bacon ranch dressing, flow right up to your knees.
Tumbleweeds of bacon, and cheddar paves the streets.
Folks don't front ya cause ya got the juice, there's a train of ladies comin' with a nice caboose.
Never get in trouble, never need an excuse, the Tendercrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch.
I love the Tendercrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch no one tells ya to behave.
Your wildest fantasies come true, Dallas cheerleaders give you shaves.
Red onions make you laugh instead, and french fries grow like weeds.
Ya get to veg all day, all the lotto tickets pay.
The king who wants you to have it your way, that's the Tendercrisp Bacon Cheddar Ranch.


Now it will be stuck in your head. All day. :king:

Ok, link to follow, I promise.

This aural goodness has filled my space today:

The Blind Boys of Alabama -- Realworld

This music moves me, spiritually and literally. I find my toes tappin, head noddin, swayin. This stuff groooooves. Especially tracks like "Nobody's Fault But Mine" and "The House of the Rising Sun" and "I'm a Soldier". God, that's the goooooood stuff.

5 stars, run, don't walk to the nearest copy.

The Mars Volta are very good band. I recommend them all the time to people.

The first single off the Francis the Mute is The Widow.

You really should check out their (i belive) first albumn De-Loused in the Comatorium.

What I am listening to:
- Daft Punk - Face to Face (Discovery)
- Hall & Oates - Rich Girl (Ultimate Daryl Hall & John Oat)
- Bear vs. Shark - Ma Jolie (Right Now, You're in the Best)
- Karate - Tow Truck (Pockets)

Jethro Tull's Warchild. Man, that's sweet. Takes me right back. I lost my rock and roll virginity (not my sexual virginity) to Jethro Tull. I found a copy of Aqualung in the locker room at school in the seventh grade. I turned it in to the teacher, and when no one claimed it, he let me have it. I played that record to death. I know every word, every note of every song. It's one solid unit to me. Not, this song and that one, I like, and uh, the rest is ok. Practically a theme album, to be consumed completely, in order. Well, to me anyway.

Warchild is considerably younger, and isn't the same integrated whole, but still rocks, and has some brilliant tracks on it. As a bonus in my old age, the "newly remastered" cd has all 10 original tracks on it, including favorites like "Skating Away On The Thin Ice Of A New Day" (the reason I bought the disc), Warchild, and Bungle In Ihe Jungle, but SEVEN bonus tracks! Practically another whole album. Sweet.

I think Brahms 1st symphony is first, but I've pledged not to do it till I've caught up on my Cellar-related listening.

I guess since everyone is jumping on the thread, I'll throw my iTunes playlist up for all to ridicule.

The Shins
Rachael Yamagata
Jarvis Church
Kenna
Charlie Mars
Tower of Power
Powderfinger
Cinematic Orchestra

Griff 05-08-2005 06:56 AM

This isn't a big ridicule thread. We'd try but usually we never heard of the stuff we'd ride you about. Thumbs up for Tower of Power.

This weekend its the Grateful Dawg soundtrack with Grisman and Garcia and King Sunny Ade to keep the butts shaking round here.

Yeah, this is actually a 3 disc set... the 1950s recording (with the notorious humming most on display), the one from the 1980s, and a disc of outtakes and interviews.
