Hot Chip have followed in the footsteps of Erol Alkan, Miss Kittin, Klaxons and Felix Da Housecat in compiling A Bugged Out Mix, their first compilation since DJ Kicks in 2007. The album comprises a ‘Bugged Out’ club side featuring the kind of techno and house Felix and Al play out (with tracks from John Tejada, Mark Romboy, Dominik Eulberg & Gabriel Ananda and a new Hot Chip tune called ‘Take It In’) and a ‘Bugged In’ side which is a house party mix thrown down by Joe, Alexis and Owen which includes everything from Dizzee Rascal to Hall & Oates, greco-Roman Soundsystem to one of their early influences Dub Narcotic Soundsystem.

The Lovely Feathers - Fantasy of the Lot (2009)



New Lovely Feathers, haven't given it too much of a listen yet. Catchy indie rock, their previous album is highly recommended if you haven't heard it.

Love Is All - A Hundred Things Keep Me Up At Night (2008)



Another new album from a band with a previous album I love. More catchy indie rock, lo-fi production values, female vocalist with a neat voice, and back-up singers. If you haven't heard them I'd recommend starting with the older album.

Paul Drummond’s love affair with the 13th Floor Elevators continues to be a uniquely fruitful one. First, after years of painstaking research and sourcing interviews with the surviving members of the Elevators and their entourage, came Eye Mind, his hugely detailed biography of this most amazing yet strangely jinxed of bands from the genre-defining first wave of US psych.

Later, having been given unprecedented access to the International Artists masters, Drummond subsequently found himself trusted with the task of assembling what, from day one, was always intended to be the ultimate Elevators box set. With all tracks remastered and remixed by the band’s original engineer and producer Walt Andrus, the 10 CDs that make up Sign Of The 3 Eyed Men include both the original mono and alternative stereo mixes of the Elevators’ two most celebrated albums, Psychedelic Sounds and Easter Everywhere, plus a remastered version of their swansong Bull Of The Woods. Additionally, the box set also includes the first official release of Headstone: The Contact Sessions. Recorded hot on the heels of the Elevators’ legendary debut single, You’re Gonna Miss Me, in February 1966, Headstone was originally slated to be their debut album, predating Psychedelic Sounds by six months. Also seeing the light of day for the first time is a reconstruction of the “lost” third album, A Love That’s Sound (aka Beauty & The Beast). Needless to say, each of these titles come with an impressive array of outtakes, 45 versions, unreleased acetates, backing tracks, alternate mixes and demo and rehearsal recordings.

Completing the 10-CD set are three previously unreleased live collections, Live! In Texas, which features radio broadcasts, TV appearances and audience recordings from Austin, Dallas and Houston in 1966, Live! In California, Avalon Ballroom (from November 1966) and 13th Floor Elevators Live: Death In Texas, which includes the infamous 1967 Houston Music Theatre show and the 1973 reunion in Austin.

Despite their legendary status as trailblazers and the world’s first truly psychedelic band, the Elevators’ career has, until now, been defined by missed opportunities, record company ineptitude, Roky Erickson’s catastrophic mental breakdown and Stacey Sutherland’s desperate attempts to overcome his personal demons. The arrival of this eagerly-awaited box set finally the record straight on the Elevators’ legacy, sanctioned as it is by the surviving members of the band, with its title coming from the Elevators’ selfappointed mystic and electric jug-playing visionary Tommy Hall.

By way of visual accompaniment the set also includes a 72-page book illustrated with vintage concert posters and previously unpublished photos, plus a specially-produced selection of reproduction memorabilia. Thanks to its scope, Sign Of The 3 Eyed Men is the long-dreamed-of trip to the promised land for Elevators fans everywhere. With its release limited to 3,000 numbered copies worldwide and only available from www.internationalartistsrecords.com the message is clear: get your skates on or risk missing out on something very special!

Thank you for this. Haven't heard it yet, but I really liked "Keepers"!

[Koremora]

Everyone get the new Deastro album. It's fucking AMAZING.

[pulpfiction21]

Either you have listened to the Used and not liked them or you have refused to listen to them based on things you have heard. To be honested I have never given any of their other albums a listen because I like just leaving them at the end of this album and keeping it like that. This album is just one of those albums that I recall being one of the first ones that I purchased and that I enjoyed for myself as opposed to something my parents listened to and thereby I listened to as well. I assume most of you have those kinds of CDs as well. They aren't the highest quality CDs but they are special to you in their own right.

But this Used album is still something I listen to quite often, especially when my friend and I get together. I got to see them perform at Warped Tour the year this album was released and Bert, the lead singer, was super passionate with the vocals. I had heard that he would often times vomit on stage from screaming so loud.

So I would say give this album a chance and listen to some pretty rad screamo music.

To distract us all from the horrifying image above, back to the music!

Eels - Hombre Lobo [2009]

E is back, sporting a ZZ Top beard and a new wolf-man persona. It's been 5 long years since his last proper album, a somber and inward-focused double-CD set entitled "Blinking Lights and Other Revelations." As is typical for Mr. E, quieter albums tend to be followed by noisier ones. However, no matter what ideas E is trying on for size, everything he records is stamped with his unique and compelling persona. This one is no exception.

Sometimes wearing a mask allows us the freedom to show a side of ourselves that we might otherwise be afraid to reveal. Here, E has assumed a persona of sorts, which differs from anything his audience has seen to date. He's a lusty, swaggering wolfman, carrying a cane and prowling the night. This assumed role seems to allow him to project a confidence unheard in much of his material, displayed most clearly on the opening track "Prizefighter" and the single "Fresh Blood." But what makes this album most compelling is when E drops the guise and reveals his true insecurities, as on "The Look You Give That Guy." That dichotomy makes this wolfman seem all the more human, for beneath the fuzz and fangs still lies a fundamentally reflective and at times insecure person.

The conceptual aspect of this disc is fun and meaningful, but never threatens to overwhelm the content. Song-for-song, this is one of E's best collections. Almost every one of these tracks could stand on its own as a single. The stripped-down sound that E has featured on some of his rawer albums (Souljacker, for example) is in full effect and really works in E's favor. Overall the man sounds energized, mature and confident, always with something interesting and often poignant to say.

E remains the consummate cult artist, and in many ways it's not surprising. His unflinching portraits of insecurity and emotion take some getting used to, especially in the current musical climate. Each project he records is something unique and interesting. This is one of his best to date.

I wouldn't mind getting my greasy mitts on the first album, if it isn't too much trouble!

[ellis]

Hoh.  Wow.  I haven't listened to Regina Spektor in ages, but that's because I got so tired of all her old stuff from listening to it so often.
Also because when I went to her concert, her fans were terrible people and yelled over her music and tried to sing along.  But that's beside the point.
Thank you!

Black Magic and Crionics have two of the greatest riffs ever, but the whole album is great. Supremely catchy, dark and thrashy NWOBHM, basically. My favourite Slayer album.

Normally I wouldn't comment on things like these, but are you sure you're aware of how bad that sounds? That means he doesn't know what he's doing.

[Herzapplikator]

One of his best releases, in my opinion.As the title says, he's going for an arabic kind of feel here. Apparently some of those songs are covers of North African folk songs. He's recently started a world tour, starting with America. Can't wait for the European leg.

That new Regina Spektor is lovely, btw.

Now, an album I just picked up recently, but that fucking blew my mind. Repeatedly.

Laserdance - Future Generation [1983]

This is it. No need to look any further. I never knew what I was missing until I had it. Much like a door opening in wall I never knew existed, my experience with Laserdance could be compared with an unseen weight which was lifted the day "Power Run" was first played. This is the sound of a thousand green laser beams crossing over darkened perspective plane with a vanishing point which flashes to a 4/4 beat. This is optimism in its purest form. The sound running through the heads of CEOs when closing million dollar investment deals on treadmills. This dull shine of a new Walkman combined with the weight of a DynaTAC 8000X. This is the future of music as heard by someone in 1983. I finally understand no one can own a Laserdance record; a Laserdance record owns you; and your family.

While American disco was taken out of commission during the early 80's, its European counterpart continued to enter into an extended after-party complete with space suits and painted backgrounds of far away lands. Space Disco, which was born in the late 70's, reached its cosmic zenith in the early 80's. Its sound typifies the feeling and spirit of the early 80's; a sense of flying optimistic eclipsing the speed of light. Laserdance's classic debut soars on the wings of electronic hand claps and synth lines which only exist inside the glass walls of the 80's. The work of Lindstrom, Datashat and soundtracks to corporate training videos owe a huge debt of gratitude to the Space Disco titans. So whether it is breakfast on a powerboat or a couple of cocktails with the boss's daughter, Laserdance is the perfect soundtrack for any success-driven occasion.

The middle silhouette on the cover is how you will feel when you are listening to this CD.

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.

Page loads fine from here. I really reccomend the last album, too.

[barista.babe]

Soviet Kitsch isn't Regina Spektor's first album. 11:11 is her first album, which was followed by Songs. I can upload both of those if you'd like.

it is! you're right .  i would love it so much! i only have about 5 random songs from that album.

[barista.babe]

so i inadvertently zipped the two files together. so i guess everyone gets a two for one deal on Regina Spektor's brilliant debut self-release and her sophomoric self-release.

emjoy!

Regina Spektor - 11:11 (2001)


Regina Spektor - Songs (2002)


to avoid further retardation (on my part and yours) there's only one link because i zipped them and uploaded them as one file. i'm lazy, so you get 2 for the download of 1.

Uh. I  guess that I have been listening to a lot of slightly broken electronic music lately and you kids might like some of it. There will hardly be any bangers but many enjoyable things. An important note is that several of the records were larger than 100 Mbs so i split them, you have to download all the rars and they will automatically extract to one folder.


First off we have Not Wave.





There once were two record labels, DFA Records and Rong Music. I am sure that most people know what DFA is (LCD Soundsystem, The Rapture for those who don't). Rong Music is also from NYC although a far smaller operation. They focus on more purely electronic music than DFA, some classic disco sounds and slightly odd electro. It came to pass that Rong and DFA have formed an alliance of sorts to gain larger exposure and they give us this compilation.  Not Wave is, as the title would imply, a glance back at the No Wave scene. There are many many ways that doing this would go wrong but they manage to avoid all of them. Instead of just bringing us old tracks or just having new bands that sound like the old ones (what would even be the point of trying to recreate a scene as ephemeral as this one). What we get are (mostly) recent bands that have a definitely modern sound using mostly electronic sounds but who are clearly informed by the No Wave aesthetics. I won't really go into detail on the tracks but let me tell you that we get some funky but sparse bloopy tracks, some disparate percussion and yelling, a track by James Chance and the Contortions, weirded out disco, a remix by Liquid Liquid members. And a Spoon cover.

Free Blood - The Singles




Free Blood – The Singles
Free Blood is one of the bands that feature on Not Wave. Free Blood have put out a number of 12”s which are compiled here. The band itself has been going for quite a while but only recently have they begun to put out records. Free Blood is made up of John Pugh (percussion/noises/vocals) who was a percussionist for !!! and Madeline Davy (vocals) who is a fashion designer. What they sound like is something odd though, almost all the elements of your regular “dance punk” band are here, chanted vocals, choppy guitars, some screaming and whirry synths, a rhythm section that rips off Liquid Liquid aided with some insistent drum machines; but it is all executed in a way that always feels just a little bit off,  just a little bit more unprofessional than this punk thing is supposed to be and that is what makes it great. The tracks rarely stay on the same idea for long and though they all follow a fairly similar blueprint they are never samey. And that is the first half of the record, the second half is the remixes that came on the B side of the singles, most of them are pretty good though made slicker for the dance floor.

If I'm not mistaken, the only thing she has out so far is her False Hopes, which is only a 15 minute EP. Full length is supposed to come out soon. Uploading the EP now.

When I don't have unlimited internet I forget how fast this thread moves. Man, I have some catching up to do.

[Catacombs]

I feel like I haven't put much up here in awhile, so I'm gonna try to change that.  Here's the debut EP from a band I saw open for the Hold Steady not too long ago called Right On Dynamite.  They make really fun/dancy...indie rock?  Garage rock?  I don't feel like combining genres.  It's a lot of fun.  I think they're from Brooklyn.

Speaking of the Hold Steady, I can up any of their albums as well, including the live one.  I'll be posting more albums soon.

I would have liked to get this up sooner, but I haven't had access to the computer with all my music on it for a while. Anyway, if you remember the video I posted in the Hardcore thread, this is the recorded version of it. If you didn't watch it, listen to this shit anyway! Pansori plays a fusion of post-rock and emo, much like Envy, but arguably better.

Street Sweeper Social Club - S/T (2009)

http://www.mediafire.com/?joqjaitfqmm

Tom Morello and Boots Riley have joined forces to form Street Sweeper Social Club. The group’s anticipated self-titled debut album is released June 16th through Warner Music Group’s Independent Label Group. The 11-song set was produced by Tom Morello and features Boots Riley on vocals, Morello on guitar and bass, and Stanton Moore (Galactic) on drums.

“It’s revolutionary party jams,” said Morello of Street Sweeper Social Club. “It’s got huge steamroller riffs combined with depth, charge, funk, while Boots unloads clip after clip of incendiary rhymes rich with satire and venom.” Riley added, “This is a time when the working class is being fleeced left and right. More families will be homeless and more people will be jobless. They’ll need something to listen to on their iPods while storming Wall Street.”

Very cool but it seems the file is missing track 7

[lauraelise204]

i went to see maps & atlases this past tuesday and they were so great to see live.  the best $6 i've ever spent.  and that includes the band that opened for them.  unfortunately, i only got to see two of the four bands.  my friend eric was raving about the second band fang island, so check them out if you can.  i trust eric's music taste and so should you.  but here's the band that played right before M&A...... highly recommended:


So Many Dynamos - The Loud Wars

Code: [Select]

http://www.mediaf!re.com/?btn2hz333lu

from last.fm

 “There’s this band that I love from East St. Louis, Illinois called So Many Dynamos, and they’re this heavy, fantastic, prog rock dance band. They’ve got their heads as much in the The Mahavishnu Orchestra as they do the Talking Heads. They’re really doing that bizarre fall on the floor dance band fusion thing, but hitting really hard. They’re fucking awesome!” - Chris Walla, Death Cab For Cutie

So Many Dynamos formed in 2002, has released 2 albums (2006’s “Flashlights” and 2004’s “When I Explode”) an EP (2003’s “Are We Not Drawn Onward To New Era”) and a seven inch (2005’s split w/ Houston’s Bring Back the Guns), and has played over 450 shows. They enjoy playing catch, eating at Cracker Barrel, and taking pictures of cats.

So Many Dynamos were recently signed to Vagrant Records and will release their major-label debut “The Loud Wars” in the summer of 2009.

They remind me of Javelins (which i will post later) and The Dismemberment Plan.

Anathema - Judgement



AMG 4/5:

After the mildly disappointing Alternative 4, Anathema strikes back with Judgement. Upon first listen, the music and message seem a bit mellow for these doomy metal moguls. Second listen is like a magical rediscovery of a lost art form, the art of creating simple, depressing hard rock that is so emotionally expressive that it bends one's own constitution. Quiet and introspective on songs like "One Last Goodbye" and "Anyone, Anywhere," Anathema has the ability to spew forth raw, volcanic pain on cuts like "Judgement" and "Pitiless" — the last of which contains the most heart-wrenching solo the Cavanagh brothers have ever penned. Drummer John Douglas also surprises, making an amazing contribution to the album, by writing two of the most memorable songs, "Don't Look Too Far" and "Wings of God." The first is a gorgeous Porcupine Tree-like tune with somewhat upbeat female vocals and melodies. "Wings of God," on the other hand, seems to be a literal interpretation of the album cover, which appears to be God's blinding eye looking down upon the cursed world. One will be amazed at how unconventionally heavy this album really is. It even has a tendency to sap one's strength, upon repeated encounters. Judgement is truly a blinding masterpiece, which pierces the senses with its intensity. Hail Anathema's sorrowful return!

The brothers in the band had their mother die so they made this for her- "One Last Goodbye" very sad song.
