Suggest music to Helm

[Helm]

Now that I've got a reasonably decent connection and am back on slsk I ask each and every one of you to propose just one album which you think is very much worth the download. To inject some weight into the situation, I am using a measly 3.3k/sec modem so I urge you to not suggest horrible things as a prank. It would be funny if I didn't spend 3 hours getting the joke. Reasonably obscure albums a must, since if you suggest Master of Puppets or something, chances are I already have it. No taste barriers, otherwise. I'll listen to any sort of music once.

I will post my impressions and naked pictures of myself as I download and listen.

[da blob]

Randy Newman - sail away

just one ?

[Helm]

Yes unless you're feeling cruel. 3.3k/sec :(

Randy Newman it is, then.

[huond]

Frank Jordan - decoy

if you can't find anyone that has it, post your slsk name and I'll add you to my list so you can get it from me :/

[Ninjavenom]

Tatsuya Yoshida & Satoko Fujii - Erans

You want this for spastic jazz.

[iron mitchell]

duh. just get everything i have... stumblerunfall2

[Helm]

You have no idea how mean what you just said was, iron :(

That would take a few years at my connection speed. So, recommend something :( I like Kayo Dot and Sonic Youth and The Fucking Champs if you want a ballpark.

[Royal Tenenbaum]

Marshall Crenshaw - Marshall Crenshaw

His 1982 debut.

[Big Papa Goat]

Transatlantic, Woods of Ypres, Yezda Urfa and Green Carnation's Light of Day Day of Darkness.

[Perndog]

So many choices...how about

Running Wild - Pile of Skulls :pirate

[Helm]

I have all the Running Wild I'll ever need. I have Transatlantic. I have all three Green Carnation albums. But I will check out these Woods of Ypres and Yezda Urfa. Thanks for the suggestions.

[Black Flag]

a tribe called quest!!

[Jeanette X]

Newark Balkan Chorus - A Basket of Roses :)

[MrAdventure]

Floater - Glyph

it's a local band but ive seen a lot of single songs on p2p, good luck : (

[Rongi]

Any song by Luxus

[Cap'n Crunch]

Capitalist Casualties. :(

[FartinMowler]

How about some DOA?

[Rez]

dizzee rascal - boy in da corner

if youre seeing if you actually want to download a whole album by previewing a song (i remember how it was to have dial up), go for "stop dat"

[executioneer]

gruntruck- push

..i think :/ sometimes I have terrible taste in music though :/

[sspadowsky]

Barkmarket- "Curio"

[executioneer]

taste test :eek http://www.blarg.net/~mobbswm/tribe.mp3

[Ooner]

Enon - Shoulder

or most any Enon

[Dole]

the tubes - s/t
the tubes - young and rich

(a couple of duff tracks on each, but amazing overall)

[Perndog]

Bobby McFerrin and Yo-Yo Ma - Hush

[Carnivore]

Anything by The Gathering.

[Helm]

And this concludes this year's tell helm what to listen to event! It'll take me a few months to download all that.

[Black Flag]

do a tribe called quest first

it only makes sense! alphabetically!

[Perndog]

"A" is skipped over when organizing things alphabetically. A Tribe Called Quest is under T.

[iron mitchell]

do you have a cd burner? i could probably burn you some fucked up shit onto a data disc. they usually hold 8 or so lp's.

[Black Flag]

"A" is skipped over when organizing things alphabetically. A Tribe Called Quest is under T.


yeah, if you're some kinda jerk.

[Helm]

Yes Iron. I can read data disks. And dvd data disks too, if you feel up to burning 4 gbs of crazyness.

And a tribe called quest is up next after I finish with blob's recommendation.

[iron mitchell]

ok. send me your mailing address and a list of shit you're looking for that you suspect i may have. i'll fill in the blanks.

[bigtimecow]

agoraphobic nosebleed - altered states of america

99 tracks in about 20 minutes

OR

lke 11 songs in about 11 minutes i think

[Helm]

Tilemahos Stavropoulos
Dexamenis 5
Drosia 14565
Agios Stefanos
Attikhs
Greece

There you go. And browsing your slsk stuff, I honestly have NOTHING besides sonic youth and a few other things. So go nuts.

[iron mitchell]

ok. and i mail this to...
helm
1 i-mockery lane
robot, ic 12345
right?

[sspadowsky]

Tilemahos Stavropoulos
Dexamenis 5
Drosia 14565
Agios Stefanos
Attikhs
Greece

There you go. And browsing your slsk stuff, I honestly have NOTHING besides sonic youth and a few other things. So go nuts.

For a minute, I wasn't sure if that was Helm's address, or Mitchell's newest list of cool bands.

[Jeanette X]

Erm, what kind of postage do you need to send something all the way to Greece?

[Dole]

My God!! I thought that was a list of bands too! And I thought 'There is a greek band named Greece??'

[iron mitchell]

it'll be in the mail by the end of next week, helm. i'll try and send about 40 albums, including some shit i've released recently.

[Helm]

Haha. My full name is Tilemahos Efstathiou Stavropoulos. I just love how it looks in english.

Iron: I appreciate it very very much!

[WorthlessLiar]

Helm, if you dig the Fucking Champs, you should check out Bozart if you haven't already. I realize the suggestion session has ended but just for future reference I thought I'd mention them.

[Helm]

Da Blob: I liked Randy Newman, although as I was downloading I had him confused with Gary Newman (and cars http://www.i-mockery.net/images/emoticons/indifferent.gif) but still it was cool. Nice sense of humour. Not something I'd listen to lots though due to the simple musicianship and standard composition. I know the whole deal about this bob singer/songwriter thing is defined by such, but I find myself losing interest anyway :/

huond: couldn't locate.

Ninjavenom: pending.

Black Flag: I liked a tribe called quest. It's refreshing to listen to hip hop that isn't about money, women and tough-guys in baggy pants. I liked De La Soul and they seem to be on sorta the same page. I had to listen to them with lyrics on the screen since my english aren't that good but it still was enjoyable.

Jeanette: Pending.

Mr. Adventure: couldn't locate.

Rongi: fuck you

Cap'n Crunch: haven't searched. I don't think I will.

Rez: boring.

excutioneer: I liked gruntruck. Thanks for the direct link, too. I went and downloaded the whole of push (I think that was the album name) and the one before it. I have a soft spot for 'grunge' or whatever one would call this (please don't hurt me if it's something radically different, I grew up on venom!). Thanks for the suggestion. :)

sspad: pending

ooner: pending

dole: I've heard the tubes I just didn't remember before (token punk friend) and for a satirical band they're pretty nice. A greek in his twenties can't understand much of the social context of the time, though.

Perndog: pending

Carnivore: I have most The Gathering albums but they do nothing for me after Nighttime Birds. Maybe Mandylion is their best album, although also Almost a Dance is ok, even as a doom death album. After how to measure a planet they become the most boring radiohead-ripp off band on earth.

[executioneer]

yeah, gruntruck is grunge (or "grunge metal" if you want to get technical :/)

i was going to see them a couple years back but the lead guitar guy went into a diabetic coma THAT NIGHT >:

he's better now :(

and now they are all in a band called "Mona Diesel" apparently :/

[Cap'n Crunch]

Cap'n Crunch: haven't searched. I don't think I will.

:(

[Helm]

Grunge metal? Ok, I guess. Is his new band any good, have you heard?

[executioneer]

actually now i am not sure if those guys are in ANY bands anymore :/ lousy internet with its misleading information :(

[MrAdventure]

i'm going to see if i have enough webspace so i can at least let you hear a single song helm ;( and if you want to try more tracks let me know so i can cycle the songs, i'll pm you when it's set up if you'd like

[Helm]

Sure. If that falls through you can send me a song a time if they're under 6 megs on my yahoo mail. locust_leaves@guesswhat.gr

[GADZOOKS]

get the CarX song, helm

Rattle Rattle Tunder Clatter Boom Boom Boom, Don't Worry, Call the CarX Man!
