Fun Stuff > BAND
So where do you get your music?
valley_parade:
The org, p4k, you guys.
Sometimes I trawl through Sordo and download stuff from bands with interesting names. It doesn't always work. Bill Cosby You! Black Emperor sucked, despite a great name.
On the rare occasion that I get to shows, sometimes opening bands.
smack that isaiah:
I kinda wanna hear Bill Cosby You! Black Emperor even though you said they were bad. But I couldn't find anything when I googled that in quotes. Any help? A youtube or a myspace?
As for the thread, I generally find out about new music from a lot of the stuff already mentioned, as well as going to the local indie record store and just browsing. Occasionally when there with friends we just go off on a whim and buy a $5 used album without knowing anything about the band.
Actually, the past few years my college friends and I have had a "judge an album by it's cover weekend" (the weekend around Pi Day, so two weekends ago) where we buy random cheap CDs with cool covers and see what we get. Some's pretty good, some's crap, there are a few fun highlights. But it's mostly just awesome to hang out with friends and listen to random music. (my roommate and I used to do this blogspot album review site where we bought $1 bargain bin CDs and briefly rated them.)
Algernon:
I had the same inclination re: Cosby and couldn't find anything either, except for this—apparently, Women were originally going to be named Cosby! You Black Emperor. Or something.
Anyway I find out about a lot of music from this forum, particularly that one thread (which I trawl on a regular basis).
valley_parade:
It was posted on Sordo a while back.
Also um I had the name wrong. It's Bill Cosby You! Black Entertainer.
Scandanavian War Machine:
i thought sordo went the way of the dodo
i used to love finding random stuff on there. it's how i discovered Shapes Like Dinosaurs, and they're now one of my favorite bands
