Well, seeing as how I've already gone an done what I said I wouldn't, which was post in the mediaf!re thread; anyone have a source on the lyrics for that new protomen? I can only find lyrics for the few that were on the single.

I got nothing, sorry.

Produced by Stuart Murdoch, sounds very much like B&S, in a good way.

Unheard Voices II

Code: [Select]
http://www.mediafire.com/?qiqazddy5zz
This is a primary schools concert which took place in July at Walthamstow Town Hall, North London (the recording place of many operas, in particular, over the last 50 years).  The choirs and groups from several local schools were placed around the walls of the hall, and there was a small group of professional musicians as well.  I made a surround recording with the mic in the centre.  This was then processed using Ambisonic UHJ encoding to generate the required stereo file giving equal status to all the schools.  

You will most likely have no interest in this; but I rather enjoy listening to it occasionally.

The Beatles - Mono Remaster Box Set

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=BTKNFG7T

Album Listing:
    * Please Please Me (1963)
    * With The Beatles (1963)
    * A Hard Day's Night (1964)
    * Beatles for Sale (1964)
    * Help! (1965)
    * Rubber Soul (1965)
    * Revolver (1966)
    * Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967)
    * Magical Mystery Tour (1967)
    * The Beatles (1968)   (TWO DISCS)
    * Mono Masters (1962-1969)  (TWO DISCS)

Sorry for it being a megaupload. This is not my link, I received it from a friend. It is a zip, with separate folders within for each album. Oh, it also has nice, quality jpg's of all the album covers.
Thus far, I have only delved into Sgt. Pepper, which has some very stand-out takes/differences. They all sound very, very clean.

Uhh, enjoy?!?

Rules:

No hot-linking images or albums. You can re-host images at http://imageshack.us.

Ensure your tags are correct and that you have specified both Artist/Album in your post.

Upload your files in either a .zip or a .rar archive to mediaf!re.com, in multiple parts if the album is over 100mbs. The reason for this is that we know mediaf!re is safe and efficient and allows multiple downloads. The ads on other sites, such as Sendspace, are known to contain viruses on the page. Get yourself checked out.

Post your link using code tags. It's the # icon above the policeman emoticon. This prevents the links from being traced back to the forums, lowering the chance that the wrong people notice the thread, potentially threatening Jeph with legal action.

ALSO, PLEASE DO NOT REQUEST ALBUMS. This includes requests for re-uploads; if you miss it, try looking for it somewhere else.

Repost the rules at the top of each new page.

Also for everyone posting the new Camera Obscura album, I put it up in this thread way back when it first leaked and the link is still good.

It's completely balls-out ridiculously awesome and beautiful instrumental electronic-indie goodness. "To Have A Crush," the first track off of "The Quiet Trial," is one of my favorite songs of all-time. His new LP is just fantastic, too.

Listen to the single "Into the Hillside" here.

Massive Attack – Splitting The Atom EP (2009)


Quote
Massive Attack is back with an EP containing four new songs, two of which are remixed. If you notice on the track list, all the songs feature a guest vocalist, such as TV on the Radio’s Tunde Adebimpe. Horce Andy guest-vocals on “Splitting The Atom,” a chilly, yet intriguing track that premiered on BCC Radio 1 August 25. The track sounds like a play on the virtual band Gorillaz, a tad creepy, but not completely outlandish.

Sunny Day Real Estate - LP2 [REMASTERED] 2009   


Quote
Sunny Day Real Estate is a band from Seattle, Washington. While not the first band to be classified as emo, they were instrumental in establishing the genre. In 1994, the band released their debut album Diary on Sub Pop Records to critical acclaim. However, shortly after releasing their second album LP2, the band broke up with members Nate Mendel and William Goldsmith joining the Foo Fighters and Jeremy Enigk embarking on a solo career. In 1997, they regrouped long enough to record two more studio albums and a live album, but ultimately disbanded once again in 2001. The band has reunited once again in 2009. Bassist Nate Mendel, who chose to remain with the Foo Fighters during the previous reunion in 1997, is now taking part in this reunion.

BEST FWENDS-Alphabetically Arranged(2007)

Quote
Best Fwends’ music is a big attention-deficit-disordered smash-up of punk, early Beastie Boys and unrefined 8-bit sounds. It's a kindred sound to those of British bands like Gay Against You and Applicants: frantic, but rooted in pop and/or rock. It’s trashy, cheap, headachy noise, but noise that a lot of love has clearly been put into. What at first seems to be simply brash and unpleasant does reveal itself to have a certain degree of subtlety and sophistication - 'Adultnap', for example, is a punk-pop classic of sorts, albeit one viewed in the lowest possible resolution, pixelated to fuckery.

Alphabetically Arranged is supposed to act a bit like The Hive's Your New Favourite Band - a best-of-so-far aimed to launch the band in the UK market. In fittingly don’t-give-a-fuck/post-modernly-self-aware (you decide) style, they've just chosen a bunch of "the best and worst songs [they've] made over the past four years" and whacked them on the CD - you guessed it - alphabetically arranged, from 'Aaww Some' to 'ZWZZT'. This makes the record pretty much impossible to approach as a whole, to really take it in. Is it a cop out of actually putting some effort into the track listing and the complete product, or a statement about the transience of digital media? ("It's just going to end up on iPods anyway, so here you go.") Either way, the barrage of 29 short tracks tends to lean towards a tiring indistinguishability.

That said, there are certainly highlights: ‘Bump in the Night’ is almost Hot Chip-esque pop geek'n'b, whilst ‘Days Seem Shorter’ seems to evoke the purest, most un-ironic love of the group sing-along power ballad at the same time as a certain unsettling attention seeking brattishness. Tellinglly, ‘Get Cleen’ launches into a Bonde Do Role-shaming battle-hop groove before being slowed down and stopped after 35 seconds. Frustrating.

It's the type of music that journalists feel compelled to hyperbolise about, and it’s certainly hyperbolic music, but at the centre of things it’s a bunch of pretty good pop songs with a wide-eyed, excitable sense of optimism in the freedom of its production.

Absolutely not. It's a boorish, reprehensible thing to do. But I'll make it up.

DAVID GRAY - DRAW THE LINE (2009)

Quote
As we approach the end of the decade, expect an avalanche of lists, including those for its bestselling albums. Dido and Robbie Williams will dominate, in the UK at least, suggesting a divided nation oscillating between sedation and light entertainment. Tucked in behind should be an interloper with an acoustic guitar, David Gray, who began his career back when it was all Britpop and no one cared for earnest singer-songwriters. So Gray didn't hit pay dirt until his fourth album, 2000's multi-platinum White Ladder. After that, singer-songwriters were everywhere, although the man himself has never repeated the trick, settling down for two more albums of still lucrative MOR. Although looser, Draw the Line doesn't reinvent the Gray wheel. He can still write a melody and there's a pleasing bite to the lyrics, which allude to the state of the world post-Iraq, with Fugitive's "crouched in a hole like a mud-streaked fugitive" inspired by Saddam himself. - Some guy on The Guardian
