!!!BIG TREAT FOR EVERYBODY. 28 A.L.E. MP3s!!!!!!

[Mockery]

About 6 or 7 years ago, myself and some friends formed an absurdist comedic musical / spoken word group. It was called "Abbreviated. Life. Expectancy." and our first album was titled "Songs You've Never Heard Before". All of the copies of the first album sold out completely and most people on I-Mockery never had a chance to even hear it. Well, Chojin was one of the people who bought it back in the day and he was kind enough to convert all of the tracks to mp3 format. So a huge thanks to him for taking the time to do this. Keep in mind, this album was recording on a shitty old 4-track so the sound quality is quite bad, but you can still make it out and I promise you that many of the tracks will give you some good laughs. The times I spent recording the A.L.E. tracks with my friends were some of the best times in my life and I really miss doing this sort of thing. I'm sure when you hear these things, you'll see just how much fun we were having...

Lyrics to this album can be found here (http://www.i-mockery.com/ale/discog.htm) towards the bottom of the page.

This is the first time all these songs have ever been up on the web and I really hope you people enjoy these. We're also gonna try to get the 2nd A.L.E. album mp3s up online since that CD sold out too and I'm sure many of you haven't heard it. More on that later...

Lemme know what you think of all the above tracks!

-RoG-

btw: if anybody is interested in mirroring these files so we have them on more than one server, let me know. It's about 54 megs total.

btw #2: For those of you that never got a chance to hear it, here's another mp3 download of a song I did with my brother called "Dead Backstreet Boys (http://www.i-mockery.com/ale/dbb.mp3)" that was recorded years later. We were going to use it on another a.l.e. album if it ever got made, but it never happened.

UPDATE
We now have A.L.E.'s second album up online for download! Check it out:

Somebody already posted this a mont h ago :rolleyes

[Mockery]

You mean posted about this a month ago. It was supposed to happen then, but it didn't. But thanks to Chojin, now they're up anyway.

:bacos

[Anonymous]

Yeah, and now I just sold my soul to get you a mirror. More on that in your AIM.

[Ninjavenom]

yoink

[Mockery]

Awesome. Thanks to Chojin for getting one of his friends to pitch in some web space. Now all of the A.L.E. songs are now mirrored on another site as well.

[kahljorn]

mm, ale.

[LegoLars]

Come on all peeps in tha house! Show me the love!

[Anonymous]

THIS TOPIC NEEDS MORE EXCLAMATIONS :picklehat

[Mockery]

Has anybody even downloaded these? :/

[Ninjavenom]

I did. I told everyone to download them in my info on Soulseek, too. :o

[Big Papa Goat]

The Truth About Jimmy Hoffa was fantastic

[Zhukov]

I downloaded "Utopia".

[The_Rorschach]

I liked the Sailour Song. That classical saloon-style clown-synth paino was love, and the accompanied drunken tuneless mumbling almost sounded melodic along side it ;)

About 6 or 7 years ago, myself and some friends formed an absurdist comedic musical / spoken word group. It was called "Abbreviated. Life. Expectancy." and our first album was titled "Songs You've Never Heard Before".

time flies.

[thebiggameover]

I've Got My Mind Set On You (Hardcore Version) rocked my balls off...

[distance]

I've Got My Mind Set On You (Hardcore Version) rocked my balls off...

i haven't been able to hear the original for years without thinking about that version.

i still remember when we were recording all of that stuff like it wasn't too long ago.

[Rillzen]

Everything can be beaten... Ididn't know you were a vasquez fan mr. mockery.

[Pub Lover]

About 6 or 7 years ago...
Wow, I wasn't even born when you made these. :eek

[SMN]

Aww man.. so good. My favorites are the Sandpaper Man series. Just curious, where was " I wanna beat Pac-Man" gonna end up?

Was it going to be on the unmade "third album"?

[liquidstatik]

I downloaded a few of 'em. They're pretty good! :D

[rook]

i can't believe you didn't win a grammy for "Break into your house with a Kinko's Copy Card". in fact i need proof that you didn't.

seriously tho, some funny shiznit.

[Anonymous]

That's my favorite track too :<

[-BrAd-]

I downloaded these then burned them onto a CD-R with "I will beat Pac-Man" and "Dead Backstreet Boys"

Not sure how our lyrics made it onto that site, but amusing nonetheless. Some of 'em even have a few comments haha

[Mr. Joe]

what about the songs NOT in those two albums?

[Girl Drink Drunk]

the Rolling Stones- I'm just waiting on a friend.

[executioneer]

wrong thread?

[Girl Drink Drunk]

Whoops :lol:

[Rabid Child]

Awsome, I just burned them all including Pac man on a cd now i listen to it when i got to school. You should make more. Maybe one for christmas

[arg_zombies]

that pretty pinata should be in a horror film!

[Cedar]

i love the i got my mind set on you cover!!!!

[moc320]

I dont't care if the topic is posted twice ... Anyway , I like the songs

----------------------------
wonderful nfl draft (http://www.topnflnews.com/)

[executioneer]

are you a spambot

[Pentegarn]

I am leaning toward not a spambot, more likely a future victim :P

[executioneer]

did you see the homepage link in his profile

awwwfully suspicious, i'd say

edit: the whole "has a chinese IP" thing also has bad connotations

[Pentegarn]

I pretty much spearheaded the lobby for the sports forum to get put in here, you think I am going to suspect an NFL sports news site of anything untoward? :P

[executioneer]

a chinese NFL fan? whose name, based on the registration email address, is Nicole?

[Pentegarn]

Odd yes. But until she actually spams, I can only assume she is Americanized. The site seems legit though, Mostly stories about the playoffs.

[executioneer]

well this is why i've just been discussing it instead of straight to bans. this person has set off a lot of my internal robat alarms is all, ME HATE ROBAT

[Pentegarn]

Well, in the interest of playing helper monkey, keep your eyes on itessangigniZ too.

And I too have internal alarms for moc320 but mine are based off her grasp of English (much the same as a spambots would look)

[executioneer]

i checked both moc320 and garblenames ips in my fav ip checker and moc320 doesn't show up as a spam but whats his face does so yeah banned

[Pentegarn]

lol @ garblenames

EDIT: I used Dr. Boogie's favorite trick to out garblenames by the way, just looked at the newest member to see if he looked spammy :P

[Ex Leper]

Both album links are dead.
