Here is a sample of one of my favourite bands. I love Chan Marshall even more than Jenny Lewis and I want to hold her. Chan Marshall stops time. She sits at a piano or lays her guitar across her lap, and whether it’s a noisy club overflowing with drunks or a coffee house full of laptoppers, Chan Marshall draws all the attention in the room and makes the world stop spinning. As Cat Power, Marshall’s music seems to rise from nowhere, envelop the room, then vanish; listeners know they’ve been hit by something but they’re not sure what. Cat Power: Wonderwall Backbeat the word was on the street That the fire in your heart is out I'm sure you've heard it all before But you never really had a doubt I don't believe that anybody feels The way I do about you now This is intriguing, and makes me want to weep more than PostSecret. Cat Power: I Found A Reason Oh I do believe In all the things you say What comes is better than what came before And you'd better come come, come come to me Better come come, come come to me Better run, run run, run run to me Better come This is a Velvet Underground cover, and is beautiful. Cat Power: The Greatest Melt me down into big black armour Leave no trace Of grace Just in your honor Lower me down TO CULPRIT SOUTH Make 'EM WASH A SPACE IN TOWN FOR THE LEAD AND THE DREGS OF MY BED I'VE BEEN SLEEPING Lower me down PIN ME IN Secure the grounds For the later parade This is not, but is still beautiful and classic. And finally, Cat Power: Keep On Runnin' When will you do what you say you’ll do? How could you really do it? Why you keep on running? Baby settle down Why you keep on running? You'll lose your home Why you keep on running? Baby settle down Why you keep on running? Run on, run on. You’ll rule your den. Crawlin black spider baby Crawlin black spider Got me to crawl on baby with the grass was very high Just keep on crawlin till the day I die I played this song on repeat the first time I heard it, haunted. Sorry about my incoherence, but it's been a rough weekend. Love always, Your Procrastinating Mod.

 thenightterrors writes:"g'day again. just 'cause i know most of you like all that mp3-sharing-type-thing, there's a couple of links i'd like to share. first. the brian jonestown massacre (mainly anton newcombe, known to most people as 'the crazy guy from DiG') have free mp3s of their work on their website. as far as what to download goes, everything on 'bravery, repitition and noise' is fuckin' fantastic. second. i don't know if any of you have heard of them, but can were a very influentual german group in the seventies. they're very experimental, and their best album has been posted online by someone, i don't know who. they're all pretty big tracks, so i'd recommend downloading 'paperhouse' first. it's only 10mbs. third. there's a useful tool for finding mp3s on the net that i found, it's called g2p.org. it's pretty good." Thought I would share! :) PS - The BJM site has heaps of other artists' random tracks as well! |

Hi everyone. I'm glad that this community is becoming more active, maybe. Just a note - I based it on one of the greatest communities ever,  ____rhapsodical, and I would like us to take up their tagging system. I thought it was crazy in the beginning to include the username, artist(s), and announcement(optional) in the tags, but now I think its useful to keep track of too much indie wank, etc.While reading some old school Questionable Content, I came across this Ultimate Fantastic Supreme Band called Deerhoof. You can download heaps of their tracks HERE. They have a rock-meets-pop-meets j-pop-but-not meets-Mogwai-meets-Ratatat-meets-Le Tigre feel, which I believe is good. I love post-post-ironic bands! < /qc> Pandora is a hardcorely-brilliant site that lets you listen to your favourite music for free and makes other good music magically pops up also! I don't think it's very dial-up friendly, but I really like the concept, and the fact that you can set up personalised stations, without signing up for anything (I think). And finally, Matador. This is me in website form. Random groovy music thrown up without much time given, free and wonderful love for every man and his dog. ¡Adiós para siempre, usted bastardos! |

Your Ex-Lover Is Dead. I've uploaded this a squillion times, but someone requested it, so heres your ysi leftover. It takes me 15 minutes to upload ONE FRIGGIN SONG, so I'm sorry that all I do is write down and perfect my posts, so I'm sorry I don't just say to myself "SHUT UP! Any music is better than none!" Yep. The point is - screw members only, and screw having to request to post. Everyone can see the entries, and everyone can post. So go nuts! Adios. |
