Hi,
So finally I found something to contribute! I've got a userscript for opera that translates that pesky ! into i, but if there's agreement, that m-f.com could be modified into complete garbage (for anyone without that certain script.) It's been working for me for quite some time and I am pretty confident I'll make it work for firefox as well, but as regards other browsers on Mac or Linux or even Internet Exploder, I don't think I can dedicate to support those... What do you think?

It sounds like a good idea but it's a little too in-depth to implement on a large scale. I'm sure most people with little computer knowledge would much rather change the ! to an i rather than deal with extra issues before getting to their music. If you think you can create something so convenient that you can get everyone to cooperate in using it, have at it!

Lunchbreak...

Anyway: Firefox users - to install Greasemonkey (no way to make it work without that):
https://addons.mozilla.org/cs/firefox/addon/748

The script for Firefox is here:
Code: [Select]
http://www.mediaf!re.com/?hm2zozhi4rq
And for Opera (no need to install anything):
here's howto:
http://www.opera.com/browser/tutorials/userjs/using/

Essentially, you just specify your user scripts folder (any folder you choose, though you should only house your .js files there) under Preferences->Advanced->JavaScript Options->User JavaScript Files

and copy the file below there.

Code: [Select]

Also, if you don't know what 4chan.js is, wait until someone knowledgeable confirms that those scripts are OK, agreed?

Didn't know arcade fire had a christmas album, but i heard bright eyes' was pretty terrible as well

I would love to check out the Belle & Sebastian Xmas album...

Youaintnopicasso just posted the Belle and Sebastian one, so here's the link:
http://www.youaintnopicasso.com/mp3/bsxmas/Belle_and_Sebastian-_Peel_Christmas_Party.zip

And the Arcade fire one was recorded before the Arcade Fire EP in Win and Regina's Apartment. It's essentially the band getting drunk and yelling Christmas carrels in so far as I can tell, but it's interesting enough to listen to, just don't expect to play it at a Christmas party.

This Belle and Sebastian Christmas album is pretty excellent, which is a nice change of pace. The Arcade Fire and the Weezer Christmas albums are both pretty terrible (the former accurately described above and the latter incredibly bland and uninteresting). This B&S one, however, is really charming and is making me happy. I like the Sufjan Steven Christmas set as well. I'm in the middle of finals but later next week I'll have time to put those up if anyone wants them.

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.

Repost the rules at the top of each new page.

Jake One - White Van Music [2008]

Code: [Select]
http://www.mediafire.com/?0gtymnznwyt



about Jake One from AMG
Quote
One of the few who has worked with both superstar 50 Cent and underground hero MF Doom, Seattle-based producer Jake One spans the hip-hop spectrum. Born Jacob Dutton, he got his break while attending the University of Washington. After dropping off a tape of beats to his favorite record store, his productions landed in the hands of fellow producer Mr. Supreme. When Supreme began his Conception label, Jake was hired to produce Eclipse's "World Premier," a Pete Rock influenced cut that would land on J-Rocc's 1998 mix Walkman Rotation. A steady stream of work followed with 2003 being a monumental year with a track on DJ Babu's Duck Season, Vol. 2 and another on Beg for Mercy, the debut album from 50 Cent's G-Unit crew. His relationship with MF Doom would begin a year later via De La Soul and their track "Rock Co. Kane Flow." Work for everyone from Planet Asia to Lil Scrappy would follow, and then in 2007 he produced the high-profile track "All of Me" for 50 Cent and Mary J. Blige. In 2008 he helmed his own debut album, White Van Music, released by the Rhymesayers label. Alchemist, Busta Rhymes, Slug, and Young Buck were just some of the guest artists appearing on this diverse full-length.


The album has two new mf doom tracks both of which are quite decent and the reason I sought it out.

Beach House - Devotion
Quote from: Allmusic
With Devotion, Beach House prove once again that they're one of the more strangely named bands around. Their music is so lonely, so haunting, that the only beach house it evokes is a deserted one, stranded on a winter night so desolate that summer isn't even a memory. Then again, that atmosphere is precisely what made Beach House's self-titled debut so striking, and Devotion is even more so, since Victoria Legrand and Alex Scally bring more focus, depth, and warmth to their unmistakable sound. Tracks like "Gila" and "Turtle Island" show that all the pair need to build a mood are their vintage-sounding drum machines, keyboards, and layers of Legrand's womanly, velvety voice, but Beach House spend just as much time expanding their horizons as they do delivering their definitive sound. Devotion begins with "Wedding Bells," which, with its fuzzed-out guitar, keyboard filigrees, harpsichords, and pedal steel, is one of the duo's most elaborate songs yet. It's also one of Beach House's most immediate, fully formed songs, something that this album has far more of than the band's debut. "You Came to Me" is a stunner, melding dark chamber pop ambience with lyrics that feel like they came from a surreal '70s AM radio hit. "Heart of Chambers" is downright soulful, with Legrand's keening voice and swelling organs giving it a truly devotional cast. Not surprisingly, given the album's title, Devotion's songs deal with love and loyalty, or the lack thereof: "Some Things Last (A Long Time)" is an aptly torchy, country-tinged ballad about carrying a torch for someone; "Astronaut" pines for a crush to be requited, filtering the innocence and drama of girl group pop through the band's gauzy approach. "Home Again" is just as sweet -- but not nearly as reassuring -- as its title suggests, setting lyrics like "Something about the way a heart is nailed above a hand" to finger snaps and a melody with a wintry sparkle. Like Beach House, Devotion sounds like it was made for, and possibly in, the dead of night. This time, though, Beach House's dark moods have more shades, and even a little bit of light, making them all the more compelling.
Pretty sure this was up here awhile back. Here 'tis again.

Iceberg Slim - Reflections
Quote from: Allmusic
With his polished delivery and smooth, almost soothing voice, Iceberg Slim could have been one of any number of beatnik poets, delivering elaborate monologues over smooth background music on 1976's Reflections. The difference is Iceberg Slim (neé Robert Beck) was a pimp, and his stories are scathingly explicit, and, more often than not, extraordinarily compelling. The language can get graphic; this is not an album for the squeamish. For those who aren't easily offended, though, this album will be spellbinding. Slim's skills as a storyteller cannot be overstated; even at his crudest, he still spins riveting yarns. "The Fall" is virtually autobiographical, depicting his last days as a pimp and what sent him on a downfall to prison, leavened with scabrous humor. "Broadway Sam" is a mean, hilarious story of another pimp who has the tables turned on him in prison. The second half of the record, though, is more poignant, as Slim remembers a lost love on "Durealla" and comes to terms with his relationship with his late mother on "Mama Debt." Throughout the record, Slim is backed by jazzy music courtesy of the Red Holloway Quartet, which enhances the stories without overshadowing them. Many years later, of course, Slim would serve as the inspiration for gangsta rappers like Ice-T (who named himself after Slim) and Schoolly D. Too many of Slim's followers, though, lack the mixture of street smarts and the intellectual and emotional depth shown here. For anyone interested in the roots of modern urban culture, Reflections is a must-hear.

Iggy Pop - Sister Midnight
Quote from: Allmusic
It would be fair to say that David Bowie saved Iggy Pop's skinny ass more than a couple of times. In 1976, as Iggy made strides to get his life back on track (following the demise of the seminal Stooges), the pair would join forces on what would arguably turn out to be one of Iggy's best solo albums, The Idiot. The album would initiate the first in a series of love/hate collaborations between Detroit's bastard son and the Thin White Duke. With The Idiot in the can, Iggy set out to tour the U.K. and America, using the future Tin Machine rhythm section of Hunt Sales (drums) and Tony Sales (bass), as well as Bowie guitarist Ricky Gardiner. Bowie would also volunteer his services by contributing keyboards, thus enhancing the quartet's sound. This live recording, taken from the band's gig at the Agora Ballroom in Cleveland, OH, showcases Iggy and company in all their cookie-cutter glory. It's clear from the recording (and the album's excellent liner notes) that Iggy looked at this tour as his chance to do right. The live music that comes out of the pairing clearly shows passion but ultimately lacks the abandon of past as well as later Iggy tours. Although well-executed and certainly well-rehearsed, songs like the cathartic "Raw Power" and "1969" are siphoned by the politeness of it all. Some, however, do work. Tracks like "Search and Destroy" and "T.V. Eye," when broken down into these slower and more orchestrated arrangements, sound good. However, other tracks like the punishing "Dirt" and the boogie-woogie, sounded-like-a-good-idea-on paper romp through "No Fun" don't deliver on the promise made by the originals. The topnotch recording itself is right off the soundboard and sounds timeless. A worthy historical document for any hardcore Pop fan.

Marnie Stern - This Is It and I Am It and You Are It and So Is That and He Is It And She Is It And...

Code: [Select]
http://www.mediaf!re.com/?nmyhtxiidtm
Quote from: allmusic
Marnie Stern's sophomore album on Kill Rock Stars is cursed with a 30-word title that begins This Is It.... She blames an Alan Watts essay but punters can blame her -- until they hear it, that is. While her debut, In Advance of the Broken Arm, was filled with her now wildly celebrated guitar pyrotechnics inside a sprawling yet inarguably hooky pop song setting, this set goes off in a different direction entirely. Stern is accompanied here by the same crew that worked on her debut: über drummer Zach Hill and bassist and engineer John Reed Thompson. Musically, this set feels like the more rocked-up twin album to Hill's brilliant and crazy Astrological Straits (also released in 2008 on Ipecac). Tempos veer and careen everywhere, from thrash to stop-and-start near-proggish excess to no wave constructions of indefinable origin. The rather interior emotional scope of In Advance of the Broken Arm is thrown to the wind as surreal, fractured lyrical constructs are set to match this ambitious mental hybrid brand of guitar rock. "Transformer," with its extreme metallic hammer-on repetitive riffing, carries an amelodic framework for her caterwauling voice with some stretched dynamics. Her guitar heroine-ism is still unchallenged here, and it matches the speedy powerhouse forcefulness of Hill's drumming. The back-and-forth twin-neck counterpoint in "Shea Stadium" ambles between proggish anthem and rock & roll arena finale. With the tempo changing nearly constantly, Stern's high-pitched voice, offering something unmistakably artful (ŕ la Yoko Ono but multi-tracked), becomes a blur, whirling by with her piercing strings and Hill's jazzed-up (as in Billy Cobham's) kit work as the only things to hold on to. Believe it that this is not tape manipulated music, as it sounds very close to the thrilling musical acrobatics of Stern's live performances. All of this said, there isn't a pretentious note on This Is It...; Stern may be ambitious but her songs are grounded in humor, extrapolated hooks, and fragmented pop formulas. If the guitars didn't have such a metallic ring (check "Steely"), one would swear this was some mutant long-lost post-punk record that was channeling Christian Vander's Magma! The closest thing to rock "normalcy" on this slab occurs on the album's final two tracks, "Roads? Where We're Going We Don't Need Roads" and "The Devil Is in the Details." In these songs, big over-amped riffs (played on a vintage Gibson SG Custom) come roaring out of the box. She hangs almost conventional verses and choruses onto her piledriver axe work, and almost shouts in glee through the cacophony. Admittedly, This Is It... takes a bit of work to get through the first time, but it gets easier, resulting in a compulsive, even obsessive desire to it play again and again, ultimately leading to the assertion that "there is nothing else on the planet remotely like this!"

I'm not sure what is going on here, but it's like a glorious car accident.

Trentemoller - The Last Resort (2 Disc Edition)
Quote from: AV Club
Adapting haute techno sound-design to moody, methodical swells of post-rock, Danish DJ/producer Trentemoller made a capital-A album that upped the ante for what minimal-minded electronic music can do in a full-length format.
That's about all I could find about this album. But it's one of my favorites.

Fabric 41 - Luciano
Quote from: Allmusic
Fabric 41 was one of the precious few mix albums by Luciano commercially available at the time of its release. Considering Luciano is often compared complimentarily to Ricardo Villalobos and widely considered one of the top minimal DJs of the new millennium, it's unfortunate there aren't more. Fabric 41 is a fantastic showcase of his DJ performance style, which includes overlayered mixes and a varied track selection of minimal and Latin- and tribal-tinged house. Within the first quarter of the 80-minute, 16-track set, Luciano showcases his knack for layering one track over another and letting them play out. He does this twice in a row with Brothers' Vibe's "El Baile" and Los Updates' "Getting Late (Luciano's Getting Late Remix)," and he does it most impressively later on in the set when he layers M83's "In Church" over Julien Jabre's "Jungle Beatz." His subsequent transition from "Jungle Beatz" into Inner City's "Good Love (Luciano Remix)" is also impressive, leading next into one of the album's peak tracks, Phuture's "Rise From Your Grave (Tiefschwarz Remix)." While the mixing is impressive from a technical standpoint, it also helps keep the track selection moving along from one musical style to the next -- from the minimal style of the first third to the house style of the middle, then back to minimal for the finale. Luciano includes several tracks released by his label Cadenza (Rhadoo's "Slagare," Reboot's "Be Tougher," Alex Picone's "Floppy," Schneider, Galluzzi, Schirmacher's "Albertino"), along with a couple of his remixes, but there surprisingly aren't any of his own productions.

Quiet Village - Silent Movie
Quote from: Allmusic (4 1/2 star review)
Joel Martin and Matt Edwards take their alias from Martin Denny's exotica landmark, yet their approach can be likened -- not just through the title but in its sound as well -- to "Quiet Pillage," the slack but unease-inducing interpretation of "Quiet Village" by experimentalist post-punks 23 Skidoo. Beneath the track list of Silent Movie, an album highlighted by material released in small runs on 12" during 2005 and 2006, the duo thanks "everyone that's been involved in making this album. You know who you are." It's probable that not everyone knows who they are, at least not in this case. The most creative and affecting sample-reliant album since the Avalanches' Since I Left You, Silent Movie plucks from numerous forms of marginalia, whether obscure, loathed by the stereotypical record store clerk, or loved by legions of geeks who were dealt wedgies in high school by Van Halen-loving jocks: prog rock and yacht rock punch lines, new age pin cushions, unhip singer/songwriters, largely unknown Italian film-music composers, and several others. For the most part, these sources are not so uncool that they are cool. They are so uncool that they are... extremely uncool. Unlike the giddy non-stop carnival atmosphere of Since I Left You, Silent Movie is, for lack of better categorization, a chillout album, even though it is just as much a creep-out, its most tranquil scenes seemingly on the verge of being washed away by a sudden ecological catastrophe. With the exception of "Circus of Horror" -- scuzzy hurtling-through-a-dustbowl psych rock, replete with the howls of a man who sounds like he has been pitched into the Grand Canyon -- and "Gold Rush" -- a dead ringer for Scenic's epic, tribal desert scores -- everything passes with the force of a light breeze, evoking swaying hammocks, sun-bleached picnics, beached isolation, states of half-awake delirium, and the slowest-moving groups of stoned dancers imaginable. Though the new tracks, including the impossibly lush "Broken Promises" and the sparkling but arid "Singing Sand," could hardly be accused of weighing down the album, it's the previously released material that stands out most. Best of all is "Pillow Talk," a reconfiguration of the Alan Parsons Project's "Voyager/What Goes Up..." that can be disorienting in the most sterile environments. Bonus: it sounds like it was put together to flow directly into the Passions' "I'm in Love with a German Film Star."

Anyway: Firefox users - to install Greasemonkey (no way to make it work without that):

The script for Firefox is here:

You are awesome for posting this, but it doesn't seem to work. Is there anything specific I need to do to set it up besides the standard install script for Greasemonkey?

Hold up a second with that scripting. Maybe I am not understanding the way the web works, but, the reason there is a word filter and/or we post the links in code blocks is so that you can not just click the link, so that mediafire does not see a shit-ton of traffic to certain files from quesetionablecontent.net, which could create an awkward situation with respects to piracy concerns.
Can anyone confirm that using your greasemonkey workaround would or would not have this same problem we are trying to avoid in the first place?

I've installed the script. As long as links are within code tags, you can't click them. It just makes it quicker so you can drag and drop the links into a new tab.

edit: and I assume since the script is user-side, googling mediafire will not find this thread.

The script doesn't make links though.  All it does is change the url from containing an ! to an i.  You have to copy and paste it in the url bar to go to the site, so it shouldn't be a problem for the forum.

Fucked Up - The Chemistry of Common Life
Quote from: The AV Club
Quick: Name one hardcore punk album from the past 10 years—hell, make that ever—that opens with a lilting flute solo followed by a chorus of electric guitars so dense, pealing, and overtone-rich, they could make minimalist-rock architect Rhys Chatham's neck hair stand on end. That's just the first of many moments on Fucked Up's second full-length where the Canadian band pushes hardcore beyond traditionally accepted limits of artfulness. The rest of The Chemistry Of Common Life heads even further into left field, often with staggering results: Neu!-esque motorik grooves, philosophically dense lyrics about the birth/death cycle, up to 70 simultaneous guitar tracks, and waves of Eastern percussion and melody, all powering 11 hugely textured songs that still hit as hard as a 90-second Negative Approach jam. While it's offset on a few songs by "clean" female vocals, Damian Abraham's glass-gargling roar remains the primary source of Fucked Up's visceral energy. From this point on, it'll be more exciting to see how much farther beyond gut-level the band is willing to go.
I've heard this record compared to The Shape of Punk to Come quite a bit. Don't know if it's that good. But it's good. It's totally Fucked Up!

Noticed that the most recent Great Lake Swimmers album is not in this thread



Quote
More indie-folk goodness from Canadian band Great Lake Swimmers comes courtest of newest album Ongiara. Named for the seafaring vessel taken to reach their recording studio on Toronto Island, Ongiara is a mellow, string laden composition which lingers with tranquillity behind the vocals of front man Tony Dekker and compliments the soft tones and lingering lyrics of the album. Leading with the  upbeat "Your Rocky Spine" the album slowly quietens and fades slightly towards its conclusion though the journey is one to remember.
