Cool.

And then some ultra-ambient..
Loscil - "Still Upon the Ocean Floor"

"I think that's in 7/8..."

And what about some funky death metal?

Necrophagist - “Seven”

Better than Mogwai....

And what about one of the best bands ever, who are currently on tour. Far East Europe at the mo tho.. MONO.

Here is an incredible tune of their last proper studio album..

Mono - "Moonlight"

"..think you see through my mind."

A Swarm of the Sun - "Refuge"

What a track.....
I love it. Think Mogwai, Isis, NIN, Neurosis. A classic.....

They have no vocals.

65!!!
Yep, ere is a little MP3 for you..

65 Days of Static - "A Failsafe"

Now, if you're new to this you might not know waht to do with the above MP3 link. Preferably, you can click on the little blue arrow next to the link and the music will start playing when the text next to arrow turns from "loading" to "playing". If you really want to download it then "Right Click and SAVE AS." if you're on a pC and do that thing you do on a Mac if you're on one.. A Mac that is..

Also, in case anybody doesn't like me making this MP3 available for download then I will remove it. Just leave a comment..

As for the song itself, well.. let's start with the band...... a mix of sampled electronica, programmed beats, wall-of-noise guitars and live beats. The above track is from their newest album from a few month back... Oh, and their name is actually written as "65daysofstatic". No gaps. They have no vocals. Most of the time.

Here is a quote form their page on Wikipedia..
"The band have repeatedly stated that they love playing live. Towards the end of 2005, in a mailout to subscribers of their newsletter, they said that they were "a little disappointed" only to have played 91 shows in that year. They have received critical acclaim from independent music websites, such as Drowned in Sound, for their live shows.."

Enjoy.

"What a great vimeo!!"

Awesome music blog Chinese Restaurant in the Forest has great-Japanese-band-in-America-video. (I'm talking about a video of Boris at SXSW (I think) - the big alternative "festival" held in Texas every year..) (oops! Forgot to mention that the video features Michio Kurihara with Boris.....)

The greatest song of all time (?) may be only available for a 30 days or so. Depending on if I log into my "fileden" account regularly or not. We is takking aboot

Alice in Chains - "Them Bones"

Just remember that the singer is

Good Virb-rations!!

Well, bollocks to you fileden. I can't have read the small print. I didn't log into my account for 9 seconds or something so they've permanently deleted a huge pile of music that I spent 3 months (at least) making. Good job it's all backed up on my Sony Ericsson.... Anyway, just remembered that I have three of those MP3s on my Virb blog. It comes with a nice Flash player too.

Quote #796356 on "bash.org"

This is taken from a weblog thingy I just found.... quite techy-geeky but funny...

" Who the fuck is the one naming hurricanes?
They somehow manage to give them the least threatening names ever.
If I turned on the news and heard that Hurricane Erin was coming I'd think to myself, "Erin? I could take that slut."
If I turned on the news and heard that Hurricane Dicksmasher was approaching, I'd grab all the money in the house, shove it in my pockets, and get the fuck out of there."

And this made me snigger...

"<Snausages> So, an E-flat, a G-flat, and a B-flat walk into a bar.
And the bartender says,
"I'm sorry, we don't serve minors."
That struck a chord.
Careful with those puns, you'll get in treble.
But they're key to my humour.
And very noteworthy."

This is all taken from bash.org.

I'm only publishing this post so people don't think I've moved to Mars or something. I'd rather watch Film 4 than sit at a PC all the time.

Oh yeah, and as this supposed to be an MP3 blog mostly, here's a bit of classic 80's..

Toto - "Africa"


This takes me back.. aaaahh.

"No More Peace And Quiet For The Warlike"

Looking for some Don Cab on EXPLOSEEK DOT COM and came across ( oo-er) a great Open Directory. Lots of Sabbath, Beatles, Floyd and.. Butthole Surfers and Dillinger Escape Plan and.... stuff... and then came across the comedy section...so here is a link to a MP3 of Richard Pryor.

MP3: Richard Pryor - "Cocaine"

Press blue button etc. I've not listened to this yet. It's partly a link for myself. If you tab back thru the "Parent Directory" links you can get all the stuff I was just talking about....

Yeah. This really is Cwmbran Town Centre. And these guys are pretty good at jumping off stuff..

ISIS- In Fiction Music Video

Completely classic track. Heavy, uplifiting, hypnotising, chilling, gives me fucking goosepimps..

The Highest Step

This video features the Pelican track 'GW' from Australasia as its soundtrack. The images in the video are a collage of footage from 1960 about Joseph Kittinger, a man who in that year took a giant helium balloon up to 102,800 feet and then jumped, setting records for highest ascent, highest jump, longest freefall and fastest fall.

Aldershof

Yep. The 7/8 section doth rock..

If you missed out on that tour I would take this opportunity to get caught up with some awesome tour merch. Just click the link and order away! site

BTW. Zozobra are a well cool band. Bit shouty raw Isis, a bit electronic chugging Jesu, bit Cult of Luna in yer face. You know. Seriously. Good band. Good album. Good label. Good web design.

"..eerily familiar."

Review of new Boris album. Here.

".It's vintage and totally invigorating. The immediate Pink punk-slap isn't here, but where the former nails one hue and keeps running with it, I can imagine this new, deeper set keeping me cozy for years to come. It's already eerily familiar." Read on.

Nice review on Pitchfork.

The review discusses the track "Farewell" off the previous album "Pink" - how it compares with the new stuff. If you want to listen to Farewell then follow the below link and you can play and listen to it...

Streaming: Boris - "Farewell" (it is an incredible track - a massive, crunching "shoegaze" ballad)

Update: You can listen to some of the new Boris album on Sogou as well. Boris. (Try the longer MP3s nearer the top of page.

Boris 5.27.06 (Blackout)

It is the doomiest track I've heard since the Bradford Deathmetal all-dayer in the 1-in-12 in Bradoford in 1993. Get the vinyl or CD to hear the impact this track truly has..

Boris live first unitarian church '05

Holy shit. An hour of video of Boris live........ Jesus...

Soilent Green

Truly, truly great metal, original. The vocals seem to have a loose flow. Technical, loose. Entombed guitar sound. So complex with such a groove.

Brian Posehn - Metal By Numbers

Funny.

Steven Wright - Stand Up (Funny Guy)

The best standup comedian.. The most deadpan too.. and the most surreal... and the shortest anecdotes...

Video: Spaceman 3 - "Revolution"

Wow!!!!! What a classic. Noise rock for real.

And some Mono from the Shoegaze playlist on YouTube. I hate that term ( "Shoegaze") but it provides such a history on the internet. I remember when that term first started getting used. Now I'm showing my age!

post-rock mono postrock

Here is a video of Mono live. Mono are one of those bands that get their long slow dark basslines stuck in your head. Scroll down for an MP3 or click below for this video..... "post - rockk"



" I love the climax. If a track could give me an orgasm, this track would be the track to do the trick. It's outright mesmerizing."

"If you love it slow and crushing...."

This is a bloody awesome song too. This is VERY similar to Isis. But less groove and more melodic emotion. This is an epic. Obviously, it's from Lupartakastaja.

Giant - “Calvin”

Very moody....

"the fattest sound system..."

I cannot stop listening to this..... This is like the first time you heard Isis. The first time you saw Mogwai live. The chords of this track are stuck on a forever loop in my head...... Listen to this, download this, burn this to CD, play it on the fattest sound system you have...

A Swarm of the Sun - "Refuge"

Killer...

"You Laughed Like A Watermark."

New music reviews - cokemachineglow.com
For example, read about the new Boris album.

"..an album boiling over with gorgeous tension and easy release, of bluesy simmering and cerebral quietude."

Well written site. A competitor to Pitchfork or DiS for reviews of underground music. These sites all remind me of a magazine from the mid-80s called "Underground". It used to give away free tapes and vinyl. It had a graphic layout like a website - lots of different fonts and splash quotes.

Have a break from Youtube

Right. Back to the MP3 action.. of the noise-rock style. Keep hearing of Mono whenever I read about Mogwai or Isis and stuff. Well, here's one of their tracks...

Mono - "The Flames Beyond the Cold Mountain"

This is beautiful stuff. When it starts it's like an exhalation - the sound of the chords.

7/8

Just been checking out the online record label 12rec.net. I like the sound of this track...

Milhaven - "Lord of Birds"

The time signature caught my attention. Like a bit of 7/8 in the intro. Have a check.......

"Check the noise-eruptions.."

12rec - online record label
12rec.net is a cool online record label. Hip hop/ post-rock and stuff. Freeeeeeee mooosickkk. Thanks again to the ever so reliable Finnish mp3 blog - Lupatakastaja.
Check out a track by Jasmin.

Jasmin - "Lernen Von Maedchen". (Linked from archive.org)

It should be cool electronic beats with chilled guitars....

Here comes the waterworks

Crazy.. Just found out you can listen to the whole of the new album by Big Business in streaming format. Here..
http://www.herecomethewaterworks.com/

And, you can also check out a band called Drawing Voices.

And....... Zozobra...
Zozobra - Harmonic Tremors (Media Player) for some more crazy streaming action.

All this is linked from the Hydrahead Records blog.
Here's a pic of Zozobra.

Listen to the whole new album Conqueror by Jesu!
Jesu - you can hear their whole new album "Conqueror" in streaming format here......

http://www.jesuconqueror.com/

Nice...... I bought the CD of this a few weeks ago. It's really starting to get it's teeth into me now. That's what Jesu tracks always do. The tempo is so slow.... the tracks get your attention over a period of months. Not seconds or minutes like most music.

The streaming audio is fantastic audio quality. If you've got your PC hooked up to a nice, fat hi-fi or sound system I strongly recommend visiting the above link if you'd like to hear music that is melodic, heavy and thoughtful. There's chords in there that are quite Loveless-era My Bloody Valentine. This music, somehow, though, is tremendously uplifting ( Track 3 - "Transfigure").

Buy it..

We've all gone video crazy, ain't we? Huh? Huh? Wha'dyu reckon? Below you will see an MP3 of a new track by EITS or as they're really called - Explosions in The Sky. Below that you can watch a video of a live TV recording of the same track. See what you think. They're space rockers like Red Sparowes and Mogwai.....

Explosions in the Sky - "Welcome, ghosts"

"I'm just some name in your book..."

Classic. When The Wedding Present were being being produced by Sir Steve Albini. This gave them that huge hollow snare sound and walls of dirty, terrifying guitars.. they always had that but he made it feel as you were at the gig itself. And I was. Many times. But I don't like to brag...Listen to the beautiful "wah-hed" guitar "solo" towards the end. It fades in very slowly too. Love it...

The Wedding Present - Blonde

Thanks to Song, by Toad MP3 blog as, luckily, his stuff gets linked by The Hype Machine (www.hypem.com)

"Doesn't matter to me."

Oh yeah. Mr B. Stamps must have visited Asda and bought the Jesus and Mary Chain "Best Of.." as I did last November because he's only gone and posted an MP3 of theirs.

The Jesus And Mary Chain - "Upside Down"


"..mesh a sort of mathy.."

New music by Pelican!
Oh, I see. And Pelican have a new album out soon. Didn't know that either. Come on, the Arcade Fire can "go hang." (Quote:R.Mugabe). Here's an MP3 of a track off their new long player. Epic..as ever..

Pelican - "Far From Fields"

Thanks to Scissorkick for this one.

Oh my God!! Part 2!!

Battles have got a new album out apparently according to I Guess I'm Floating MP3 blog. Well, it's their first proper album........ here's the MP3......

Battles - "Atlas"

I was just checking out the good, old Hype Machine and there it was.. a link to a new Battles track.

Or check out the video.

You'll have to visit Myspace (I'm sorry!!!) for this one.

How do I find an MP3 on tinternet?

You know, if there's a cool band you want to check out, some weird American folk guitarist or some noise "post" rock or something. You know where I go, don't you? To the record shop!!! Ah, just joking. I mean when I'm staring at some computer monitor while the world flies by all around me. Where do I go?? Which website??? You should already know the answer. It's called 3hive . As you can see, the labels or tags for this post are "MP3" and "free". That's because that's exactly what you get with 3hive. You're also safe in the knowledge that there is no piracy taking place and you're not ripping any bands off or funding gangs or something. All (most of) the MP3s are tracks that the band have put up for free on their own sites. What 3hive does is to collect these tracks together on a daily basis. The beauty though is that the songs are all categorized into genre (style), band and record label etc. If you fancy a bit of post-rock then u just click on that button. There is another favourite MP3 blog of mine that almost competes with 3hive though. Its called mp3blog.ch.
MP3blog.ch feels more like a blog than 3hive which feels more like a database as it is so organized. Check it out!!! It has categories too - like "post-rock".
mp3blog.ch

Here is the actual MP3 itself........

This post actually includes the new Air track that seems to be doing the rounds. It sounds cool. Not had a proper listen to it yet. Here's the MP3 dorkheads.

Air - "Once Upon a Time" via 3hive

(Press that blue button, wait 2 secs, check your speakers are not mega loud and listen. If you don't like it click the button again to stop it.)

As I said before, this was originally posted on my sparse MP3 blog Clik and Lissen.

Monday, March 05, 2007

".air and more air.."

Here's that new Air track again...this is linked from my pure MP3 blog - Clik and Lissen.

Air - "Once Upon a Time" via 3hive.

I haven't listened to it myself yet. That's the reason I set up this bloody blog in the first place. I would always be surfing the net in work, finding things that I wanted to check out when I got home - like awesome MP3 blogs such as 3hive (indie/noise/folk) or Lupatarkastaja (post-rock, death metal). I record the links onto my blog so I can check them out when I get home. That was the theory anyway. I found that people all around the world were reading my blog and recording links to my blog onto theirs. I'm sure there's technical terminology for what I'm on about but I prefer to use the words I know. It's become a bit of a beast. Although, it is a beast that I can control....mostly...

"..pound your fist..."

Low have a new album out soon. This I did not know. Found this out from a blog called Vague Space. There's a couple of old Low MP3s on there too.

Boing Boing!

Indie for Bunnies has a link to a new Arcade Fire track. Go there.

Sterling

Just been recommended to check out a band called Sterling. Someone left a comment about them on my long post about Boris.

Sterling on Myspace

Here's a copy of the comment.
"Their new album ‘Cursed’ comes out MARCH 20 on FILE 13 records. The band features ex-members of Atombombpocketknife, 90 Day Men, and Milemarker.

‘Cursed’ contains instrumental dreamy landscapes, distorted bass, pulsating raw drum beats, thundering grand pianos/organs, and metallic guitars. I would recommend this for fans of Shellac, Boris, Tortoise, Don Cab."

Listen to Air...


Didn't know Air had a new album out. Listen to one of their new tracks here...............

Oh my God....

Just got this email....

"DAYDREAM NATION AND SPIDERLAND LIVE!

In August 2005, ATP introduced a new season in London called "Don't Look Back" inviting artists to present a retrospective of one of their works in its entirety. We kicked off the season with The Stooges performing Fun House from start to finish in one amazing show at the Hammersmith Apollo that saw grown men cry. The season finale was the inimitable Dirty Three (with special guest pianist, Nick Cave) performing the stunningly beautiful Ocean Songs at The Barbican.
Since then, we have seen seminal albums performed including Bandwagonesque by Teenage Fanclub who stirred up a melting crowd at The Forum, Tindersticks playing the exquisite Tindersticks II at The Barbican and Ennio Morricone proving why he is The Maestro as he lead 200 musicians through his classic film scores at the Hammersmith Apollo.


Don't Look Back Concerts is proud to announce the first dates for our 2007 season.

Slint
Spiderland
Koko,
London22 August
£22.50

Sonic Youth

Roundhouse,

London13 September
£17.50
(1st Creation LP)

"When I first heard Daydream Nation - I thought 'what is this music...?' It was raw, abrasive and reminded me of the Stooges and the Velvets. But nothing else sounded quite like it and it quickly took over to become one of my favourite records ever! From the gatefold sleeve to the heavy vinyl this was a lush piece of art that you took home and cherished. This was a time when CDs were alien to the kids and a few years later Slint released Spiderland. In a way their masterpiece inspired me to start the Don't Look Back season. I would think "how do I get to see all of these songs live?" - I was obsessed. I would check the credits and even look at the run out grooves and long for them to play every last track live, so we are really honoured to kick off the season with these legendary albums and also continue the series with the faithful genius that is the House of Love performing their first LP they did for Creation." Barry Hogan (Don't Look Back Concerts).


Tickets are all available at www.seetickets.com (0870 264 3333) www.wegottickets.com, Stargreen (0207 734 8932) and the venues box office.

Are they real??

Boris - “Electric” via chinese restaurant in the forest
"Japanese grunge/sludge/metal/noise/alt. rock.."

This is how they were described by one website...Never really had chance to check them out as was always slaving away at my desk. I have since quit my job. It was listening to this band that inspired me. To leave. They blew my mind. I had bought the double vinyl of the new album. Didn't listen to it for a while but just loved the artwork and the packaging first. Thick double LP, card sleeve, free "acid" prints. Are they real? I do not know. Are Boris real? I do not know.
It may have been more the fact that I was listening to them at extreme volume on my headphones in the middle of the night, clutching the sleeve, staring at the picture on the back that shows them looking at you with their eyes closed. I just kept turning the volume up. I felt no pain as it got louder. And louder. And a bit more. The bass was tickling my ears as the headphones seemed to shake like in a cartoon. I got as far as side one, I think, of the double album. Three tracks of in your face punk rock - it's the sound of being at the front of a gig and you're way too close to the speakers. The sound of a band with so much energy. It's a very distorted sound.
After the three fast tracks they just hit you with a very slow, super heavy track called Blackout. The effect is like being dressed in armour and hitting a concrete, car park wall every five seconds. It is so slow and so, so heavy.
You may not get the full effect of the music from checking out a couple of dodgy MP3s. Especially as you are so busy that you need some music that's not gonna challenge you too much. Here's another taster of Boris: this is not a full track but you get most of it. It's linked from their label site, Southern Lord.

I'm tired now, anyway. After listening to this record I couldn't listen to anything else in my collection. Everything else sounded over produced, clunky, QUIET and boring and unimaginative and predictable. Enjoy.

These tracks were originally linked on my basic MP3 blog Clik and Lissen.
