So, should I upload "Better Than the Beatles?"
Y'know, the Shaggs tribute album? There's nowhere I can't reach. It was lunchtime at Wagstaff.

Well, I knew that Deerhoof covered "My Pal Foot Foot", but I didn't realize that this may/may not have been from a Shaggs tribute album. I thought it might've just been an independent thing, given the fact that Deerhoof are one of the big names in Noise-Rock and Noise-Pop and basically owe their sound to that famous accident of the 60s. I must hear this.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
I think there's more of a connection between The Shaggs and punk music (in the Slits or The Raincoats vein) than between The Shaggs and Noise music really. For all their ineptitude, they're trying to write pop songs, whereas most noise acts have gallons of talent but purposely fuck around and do weird things. Noise rock really has stronger roots in free jazz than in stuff like this.

OK, so finally listening to the album again for the first time in 3 years and I was giggling and clapping my hands and SOOOOOOO happy.
Most amazing jew boots It was lunchtime at Wagstaff.

I find that a lot of noise rock relies heavily on playing knowledge as well as in-depth knowledge of guitar effects (Agata of Melt-Banana comes to mind) instead of random (simulations of) ineptitude. Of course, there are certain noise rock bands that are writing pop songs from another, very noisy dimension (deerhoof~) but for most bands, that just isn't on the agenda. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
Really enjoying this Earth album, wvlf. Thanks for that.
I'll probably be uploading some Bohren & Der Club of Gore after I can re-encode it in VBR. It's dark, creepy nightclub jazz, and someone recommended it to me after I requested the music from The Maxx series. I considered uploading Amon Tobin's latest, Foley Room, but I only had it in 320 cbr. You can definitely tell the difference between vinyl sampling on his last album and the outside sampling he did on this one, though. Motorcycles and Rhinocerous sounds. FELIPE NO |

Well, that shows just how much I know about Noise-[genre]. My primary exposure has really been - you guessed it - Deerhoof, so they're the one's that I keep coming back to in reference to such things because they're what I know. I'm gonna have to get into more Noise-anything to really understand the genre(s) better.
My apologies, knk and Schad - as knowledgeable as I'd like to think I am about music, you two regularly put me to shame. Most amazing jew boots |
Hey, whatever. It's still great music.
How ya doing, buddy? |
I gave that Sounds of American Doomsday Cults thing a listen and I gotta say that it was a polarizing experience. I mean, it gave me primordial chills just listening to it but I wanted to break out in laughter when they were naming off bands that were
"the enemy" (Men at Work was apparently a force of evil. Who'd have thunk it?) Yeah... It's a trip to listen to but definitely not for everyone's tastes. How ya doing, buddy? |

OK, so question: Brian Viglione's (drummer for The Dresden Dolls) blog on myspace pointed me at Sleepytime Gorilla Museum. I've heard a few bits of some songs and I'm hooked. Anyone have any of it?

I'm thinking of uploading both of Black Eyes' albums sometime soon. No wave/free jazz influenced noise-rock with two drummers. Awesome.
I was speaking idiomatically. |
The Big Chill album that Enceph uploaded is great. You guys need to check it out. It's perfectly suited for studying at 2 AM.

My thoughts on some recent stuff:
Earth, Boris and the Melvins I all loved. I was actually able to get bittorrent working at my school somehow and was able to get a whole lot more from them (About 8-10 Earth albums, mostly one to three track albums, 17 other Boris albums, and I'm still downloading a torrent of about 19 other Melvins albums). The Shaggs were quite amusing. I listened to the whole album and made a crazy pic in MSPaint while listening (even made a weird looking shark/tiger based on Foot Foot). I may play them on my radio show this Sunday (hell, maybe I'll just do a show with stuff from or inspired the getting from MEC). I'm listening to Bohren Der Club of Gore right now, and I have to say I really really dig this. It sounds like a cross between Yasunori Mitsuda and Akira Yamoaka to me. If they have more I'd love to get it. First thing I thought when hearing it was I'm definitely going to be writing to this. Expect my entry for War of the Words to be influenced by this, whenever I get my damn prompt that is. How ya doing, buddy? |
Oh my god, Skex! That Bohren & Der Club of Gore album is some damn sexy music. See... This is the kind of ambient music I would have loved Sin City to play in every scene. It actually BLEEDS sexy, cool and mystery all around. <3
If you have any more I'd love to hear it. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
So, knk. If I thought the movie kinda sucked and was kinda blah on the music as well, should I still download the OST?
Jam it back in, in the dark. It was lunchtime at Wagstaff.

You thought the 1973 Wicker Man sucked?
But... wha... I don't... ... There's nowhere I can't reach. |

I think you've broken his brain, wvlf. The fact that he doesn't appreciate this particular cult Horror classic is absolutely baffling to our resident cult-culture expert.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Horror Classic? Maybe you should watch it again ... =/
The soundtrack is amazing. It talks to every parts of my Pagan atavism. BTW, I'm joining you guys. Been lazy about it for too long. How ya doing, buddy? |
If it's any consolation, I adore about everything to come out of the Italian horror scene and may upload the Suspiria OST one of these days. I was speaking idiomatically. It was lunchtime at Wagstaff.

I just posed The Violin Player, and while I know its not strictly classical music, I hope I don't have to defend against comments of 'commercialization' from Musical Hall people.
Also, I would post more, but my internet is on/off and uploading an album would surely kill me on that end =X I might put something up monday night however. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
Just posted a 60ies Medieval Epic soundtrack and another folk/pagan ambient album. Hope some of you enjoy these ~
FELIPE NO |
Loved the Pekka Pohjola record, niki.
I'm gonna be putting up a lot of stuff through the weekend. Some more eclectic posts. Keep an eye out for some live Grateful Dead, some post-rock, a few interesting compilations and a handful of other stuff. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Just saw this topic. I'd like to thank everyone who's posted, I've gotten some excellent music from this. And I hope you liked The Wipers.

The next Bohren & der Club of Gore album is up, and if I have time, I'll probably upload Dredg's Leitmotif album later on, since that was the only one that didn't show up in the last crop of Dredg uploads.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
