Simple. Rate the song in the post above yours, and post a link to one of your own. To make it not spam, actually write a comment about the song you listened too, and a short description of the song you're linking. Something. Anything so that it won't be spam.

I'll start:

Titus Andronicus - Fear and Loathing in Mahwah, NJ

The song ends in Aaron the Moor's death speech. Which I think is pretty deck.
I like this and am pinning it. :D ~Slaw

3.5/5

At first, for the first 2 half minutes or so, it felt awesome. After that, I got pretty bored of the noise.
(I'm also stunned to how this song goes from /awesome/ to /ohmigoshimboredletshearanothersong/.


!!! - Myth Takes

Bass action and wacky guitar. It's amazing.
Disregard the video.

Really like the bassline and the way the vocals are kind of whispered. Satisfying! :3
4/5, I guess. Something is missing but I dunno what. ;-;

Istari Lasterfahrer's ce qui reste de ce qui va

I like this song because the bass is really cool, and it's kind of uncommon to find breakcore stuff with bass like that. :3

Absolutely top-notch. They're world-famous for a reason. 4.5/5

Kingdom Shore - Stray Bullets Singing "It's not what you say, but who you give it to."
The most challenging music I've ever listened to, which is why I love it so much.

2/5. It was mostly noise, which can be good, but I don't think it was technically proficient nor musically appealing.
Brigitte Bardot - Ne Me Laisse Pas L'Aimer

Vintage fucking Who. Live Keith Moon? Hell yes. Nondescript positives!

I wasn't too keen on the guy's voice, but the rest of it was pretty good.

Okay, but it got rather old rather quickly and I would not want to listen to it again. 4/10.

4/10

Kinda catchy, but I couldn't understand what he was saying, and it annoyed me.

Vampire Weekend - Cousins

Holy balls, this was pretty effin' great! I really really loved it.
5/5

Durutti Column - Never Known

Great guitar. Smooth voice. And a bit of echo.

pretty good for new wave

I think I have a good taste in music... I dunno :P

3/10

Rush strikes me as noise. Never liked 'em.

The above is one of my absolute favorite songs.

I like the beginning, but once the vocals cut in I start to lose interest. Hmmeh. 2/5?

Travestieten Transsexuelen Over The Rainbow Braak - Cardopusher

I like this song because he meshes like thirty raggae songs together and it just gets so insane and loud towards the end and yeah. Fun stuff.

Breakcore, in general, isn't quite my thing, but I still squeezed passable enjoyment out of that song. 3/5

Black Dice - Ultra Vomit Craze
Black Dice are a band I consistently enjoy, despite my inability to describe their music.

Hmgood. I'm going to check out on more stuff from them.

4/5


Time to Lose - Tuxedomoon (LIVE)

It's kind of a shame it's a live video, because of the audio quality, but oh well.


Also, I think I'll be posting Tuxedomoon for the next posts. Cause damn, these guys are good.

that's some really cool sound gloomp. I think these guys will be my ticket to the avant-garde music industry, so to speak

EDIT: Donfuy has beat me to it

Donfuy, it is a good song by a good artist for what it is, but not my thing, y'know?

DJ Krush feat. Inden - Journey of Time

I thought the production was supreme and why not? DJ Krush is legend. But the MC, Inden, didn't do it for me. I don't speak the language and wasn't impressed by any tongue-twisting proficiency. 3/5

P.O.S. - Drumroll (We're All Thirsty)

I'll have to investigate that man some more. I'm finding his songs to be immediately appealing to me, because of the absurd lyrics and innovative instruments that I seem to be encountering with alternative hip-hop. 5/5

Here's something a little different: Scatman - Scatman John

There is no official music video for this song, so I'll just give you the lyrics.

Well, rap is far from my favourite, but I have to admit Eminem has a way with words. 3.7/5.

Lazy Eye - Silversun Pickups

I'm prone to putting this song on repeat while playing N or making maps.

Ah, man. Used to be a big fan of those guys. Don't really like them that much any more, though. >_> 3/5, I guess?

Waltz For Life Will Born - Uyama Hiroto

Instrumental jazz hop :D
