The Le Tigra track is rather good. I haven't downloaded anymore, tis too slow, bloody dial up connection.

adidasss 06-09-2005 01:59 PM

i think this is pointless....it would be much better if you could post some streaming links so those of us with dial ups don't have to download....

jesus 06-09-2005 02:40 PM

he's not just posting them for you. Not everyone can download **** off some program. Look at the one in the punk forum, it wasn't a bad idea at all. I'd help, but I don't listen to indie so I'd probably end up posting a bunch of crappy songs that probably aren't even indie

Because the Feds are behind us, truncheons in hand, awaiting their opportunity to lay some severe beatings on the Napster generation.

Oh, and good call on the Black Keys. Rock on.

well it would be superific if i could just click and listen to it, but it's not happening, i have to download it, so i don't see the point...like i said why post links to files when i can download them myself, just post the name of the song or something...

really good list of songs.

hookers with machineguns 06-09-2005 04:02 PM

If there are even a few of you who actually cared to download some of these songs, then that's good enough for me. I'm not here to fancy all of you. Btw, most of these songs are nice and legal, because they are from accredited sites (mainly the band homepages).
If you don't have good connection speed, that's fine. But, if you have a band or a song you want people to hear, this was meant for you to post a link so others can listen. But anyway, I'll continue to post more songs, that is, if people want them. And sh*t, I'm all about the Black Keys, so I definitely have no prob posting those links.

Sneer 06-09-2005 04:04 PM

you been on drownedinsound.com before? good for discovering new music.
and the black keys... full of catchy riffs. but they dont do much for me.

For two blokes they do make an impressive amount of noise. Wasn't so keen on the last record, but Thickfreakness is possibly the best example of an all-male blues duo ever. Possibly.

I would have to agree. I don't think the last record was 'bad' necessarily, just not as good as their earlier work. Thickfreakness= excellent, couldn't agree more.

You may well be right, I got Rubber Factory in a mass splurge with a ton of other stuff so I may not have given it a fair crack of the whip. I'll put it in the car next week and live with it for a bit.

Thanks for the TV on the Radio track as well, had been recommended them countless times before, but never actually gotten round to listening to them.

But now I will.

Sneer 06-09-2005 04:12 PM

DFA 1979 are a better two-piece in my opinion. now that guy fuzzes the bass to its limits.

Hmm, not so sure that would fit into the Blues quite so much. Loud, yes. Very. Good? Yes. Very.

I admit there are a plethora of all male two piece bands ripping it up. But not the Eurythmics.

Sneer 06-09-2005 04:16 PM

the white stripes have kind of inadvertently started this whole two piece rock phase.
id agree with you on the DFA 79 not being blues point. a lot more of an electronic influence with them.

Eurythmics...all male? this is a joke isnt it and i look silly oh well.

Of course White Stripes are a great 2 piece band but, they don't belong in this genre, where would be a better place for them? Stu just said that too - weird

Sneer 06-09-2005 04:19 PM

white stripes are a garage rock band with a heavy blues influence. 'nuff said.

architecture in helsinki - in case we die
ok check this out ..this is from nme.com:
"Someone call Dogs Die in Hot Cars! Tell them they can come out of hiding! We've found someone else with a superiorly crud name to point and laugh at now. Sit down Test Icicles; we're looking at you Architecture in Helsinki. Yet this Australian trio sound too high to care. This sounds like The Polyphonic Spree drowning in serotonin in the Hacienda toilets, only produced by Phil Spector and segued into a 40-second long Stephen Hawking harmonica solo. On roller skates. On ****ing Mars. It's daft and delightful, and as comparably wonderful as their moniker is awful."

hilarious isn't it?!...the guy most have been on acid when he wrote that description, the song sounds nothing like he described it, it's just a nice indie-pop track....going by his description i thought it would be some crazy, i'm on heavy crack/acid 70's experimental rock....

After reading the description...your right, it is a bit of an anti-climax...sounds like he was on acid when he listened to it as well

'Bout time, the Fiery Furnaces are probably the best "duo" band out there. They got compared to the Stripes at first because they're pretty much a duo, but after Blueberry Boat they "proved" they were nothing like Jack and Meg (because they never really sounded like them anyway).

The Black Keys also kick ass, and the best thing is they are blues purists. Just simple music played loud. They don't need to be ironic or tongue-in-cheek about it (I'm looking at you, J. Spencer...), and they don't name-drop with their covers (yeah, Jack White is crazy covering Robert Johnson... but then again so was every '60's and '70's blues blues band... even Cream).

Only the Fiery Furnaces should be allowed to cover delta blues songs, because that'd rock. But they haven't done that... yet.

Btw...
