Not sure I could listen to that for regular musical enjoyment, but I guess I did have fun with it.
That's Psychostick, a fun band. Though they've got tons of great songs that hit the perfect combination of music and comedy, that one was more just goofy.

Just everything has been made to sound as annoying as possible.

My ears are protesting very hard here, so i'm having a difficult time being fair to the musical ideas going on behind the production/mixing on this album.

I get the feeling that i wouldn't be all that into this even if it sounded good. Seems very schizo in the songwriting department.

Good stuff!
Glad you liked it. I have to give their new one, "Cubic" a listen still.

The problem is that I find their music weak and uninteresting and that the dude on the microphone is insufferable. I know this, because I checked out several tracks on Youtube right away, just to see if the band really sucks that bad. Sadly it does.

Then again, I might be far too picky with this sort of thing.

Hey Mic, I remembered you liked the Plastix tune I rec'd you and thought you might like this video I just found of a guy drumming over it. Legit was walking to class the other day listening to the song and thought "this sounds like it would kill a man to actually perform" and I just happened to find this lol. Granted he leaves a bit of background percussion out but he still does a great job considering.

I know you had liked Jesus Christ Pose, so here's another one of Soundgarden's best:

Be sure to check out the rest of Los ángeles as well. I dig the glitch elements that she incorporates on the new one.
