This is a great thread!
Would anybody be interested in a beginner's guide to Firewater? I'm having a go at making a "best of" for myself, and I could share if anybody is interested? |
Making a Deerhunter mix for a friend.....could post it in here if anyone is interested.

a beginner's guide to modest mouse http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j3...tmousebw-1.jpg my prior comp isn't online now and I decided to expand it to include something from all of their albums. all of the files are perfectly tagged and in mp3 V0 format(re-encoded from flacs that were ripped via EAC from my personal cd collection). if you haven't given them a chance yet I highly recommend this as the time to do so! I spent weeks listening and re-listening to tracks weeding out inferior songs from their entire discography. here is the end result: Breakthrough Novocain Stain Teeth Like God’s Shoeshine Doin’ the Cockroach Trailer Trash Polar Opposites Interstate 8 Broke Grey Ice Water Other People's Lives 3rd Planet Gravity Rides Everything Tiny Cities Made of Ashes A Different City Float On Bury Me With It The View The Good Times Are Killing Me Florida Missed the Boat DL |
I'm pretty sure someone already did Modest Mouse, and I think someone may have even done a second one w/o knowing before you :P
The Fall of Troy The Fall of Troy were a progressive hardcore band from Mukilteo, Washington. They are one of my favorite bands, so I thought I'd make a beginner's comp for them. I started out making it all even-handed, including songs from their last album, but since almost all TFOT fans hated that album I'm just gonna pick highlights from the first 4 releases: S/t, Ghostship demos, Doppelganger, and Manipulator. I've changed the track numbers of the songs so that they will go in the right order in a playlist. Enjoy! 1. Ghostship Part I 2. Laces Out, Dan! 3. The Circus That Has Brought Us Back to These Nights (Yo Chocola) 4. Sledgehammer 5. Macaulay McCulkin 6. Semi-Fiction 7. Whacko Jacko Steals the Elephant Man's Bones 8. "You Got a Death Wish, Johnny Truant?" 9. The Dark Trail 10. A Man. A Plan. A Canal. Panama. 11. Ghostship Part V 12. What Sound Does a Mastodon Make? TFOT comp.rar |

Second of all, bless you for including 'The View'! |
I have to second RVCA on Float On. Terrible and overplayed.

'Float On' is a great song. What is there to dislike? It's catchy as hell...
|
I am among the most hardcore of their fans. it's not my absolute fave, but calling the song terrible is an overstatement.
posts like these bother me. you are shitting on someone's effort with a dismissive one-liner. @khfreek: yes, I had made one previously, I addressed that in the post. |
my bad bro. You lose points for not having Dramamine and Tundra/Desert :P

In other news, I'm glad you included Missed the Boat as that's my favorite MM song |

I don't think "Float On" is MM's best song by any means, but it's really not *terrible*.
I mean seriously - I know so many people who are really into MM now who would never have even heard of them were it not for "Float On". It's not their best song, but it was actually pretty important for them as a band in that it helped get their name out there a little more. |
I wasn't criticising your effort, just saying I didn't like the song. I only like their first three albums really.

Let's Go To Hell!!! The Music Of God Bullies http://media.mlive.com/kzgazette/ent...18e6_large.jpg Welcome Aboard Interworld Airlines Flight F.I.N.A.L. With Supersonic Non-Stop Service To The New Jerusalem Hailing from the beautiful city of Kalamazoo, Michigan with a rather triumphant reign over noise rock that lasted from 1986-1995....God Bullies never shied away from the absolute beauty in our decaying society and loved to exploit the exploiters in a cynical, sarcastic, and very disturbed way.....with lyrics about drug addiction, religious hypocrisy, serial killing, sexual debauchery, corporate conspiracy, and the flaws in political systems although they were on a few labels the bulk of their albums were all released on the immortal Amphetamine Reptile records...and in my opinion out of all the great bands on that label this is exactly what i would consider the pinnacle "AmRep sound".... somehow this band seemed to miss out on any mainstream success and were often banned from venues due to their blasphemous on stage antics....what really sticks out is the surf rock fun which is somehow blended in with their dark and disturbing view towards the world...this is especially apparent in Cemetery where Mike Hard begs for you to "Rock n Roll and Worship Satan" and their quite good and fun cover of Hot Chocolate's 'You Sexy Thing' so my introduction for your undeserving ears and souls...is in chronological order...starting with tracks from the 1989 debut lp "Mamma Womb Womb' and ending with their final outing...'Kill The King' released in 1994 on Alternative Tentacles......enjoy Act Of Desire Creepy People Fear And Pain O Shit Red Blood What Reason Join Satan's Army You Sexy Thing Live Sex (mamma) You Cry Now Let's Go To Hell Cemetery Do It Again I Am Invisible I Like It Like That Monster Jesus I Want To Kill You Ordinary Man Pet Monkey Saw You Dead Ruby How Low Can You Go Detain My Brain Hate She's Wild Artificially Inseminated By Aliens Jesus Is In All Of Us. |
^I'm gonna have to check that out, never listened to God Bullies.
|
i think you'll enjoy them....if somebody put a gun to my head and forced me to name my tope five bands of all time....they would be in there without hesitation.....and Mike Hard (pictured above) is up there for coolest guy in rock history :)
|
Did you once post one of their songs in 'Mini-review a song above you'? It was a great 'song' with a guy and a girl talking throughout and some intense music underneath that progressively got wilder, if I remember. And someone gave it 0 :( Can't remember if that was God Bullies.
Top 5 eh? It's so hard for me to pick 5, I can always pick 3, but there's a big competition for last 2 spots. |
hahaha....yes it was "Pretty On The Inside'...a conversation between a prostitute and her "john"...where she tries to get his to shoot heroin with her "you like sticking your thing in people and i like sticking my thing in people...whats the difference."....yeah they would fall within my top three pretty easily
|
Always meant to check out God Bullies so I guess it's time to finally do so. You type a very persuasive bio, bob.

i was honestly hoping that Mike's boyish looks would be the selling point |
