Song Sharing Time During Some Wednesday Blues I Suppose Edition
Let's try to keep these at the ten minute mark or shorter, but otherwise post whatever the hell you want.
I'll let the first non-OP dude link the first track.
Song Reviews & Recommendations
These threads suck. It's just the same posters posting the same mediocre songs and giving meaningless criticisms like "ha ha this is so great I have no complaints about it 10/10 (I am totally not saying that because I am too lazy to actually talk about the songs)" or some other pointless crap.
Sometimes you find some good songs. These threads born dead anyway so just ignore it or cry
Dude, for fuck's sake, relax. You're free to share whatever you want. And ignore whatever you want. Come on.
I remember this from 2007, felt cool when it came out. I liked the idea of post punk reinterpret by pissed-off underage Midwesterners
Really enjoying the anarchic sound, with this making me want to go back and listen to no wave tracks from the 70s and 80s. I feel the same. Thanks for sharing. Have something from DNA. 8/10
9/10, holding back one point because it isn't Egomaniac's Kiss. Since people are looking for hot takes ITT, here's one — No Wave was far more "confrontational" than Black Metal/ Extreme Metal / edgy-gore-serial-killer-grimdark-genre-du-jour. You have to be subversive to be truly confrontational, and you have to do something unexpected. Edgy teenagers being edgy is the most predictable, least subversive thing there is.
I think slasher film esque music that wallowed in being all angsty and grim was genuinely "subversive" in the context of the 60s and 70s because the general culture of the U.S. was just way the hell more stoic and uptight back then, during the days when the average guy looked and dressed like Robert McNamara.
And things evolved, like you're saying, and I really agree.
The vocals and lyrics have this kind of vampiric quality that I like a lot, which makes me say that I generally enjoy the song even though the electronic background is honestly fairly mid-tier, even a tad generic for my taste. The singer actually reminds me of Bryan Ferry, which is pretty nice actually. Not bad. 7/10
Good piece of Schubert. 7/10
okay this is actually a pretty good bond song, I get the hype. RIP
7/10
Nice piece of fuzzy pop. 8/10
Classic. Always great to listen. 8/10
Very lovely quebecois pop tune. 7/10
I'm not feeling it. Maybe if I was in a different mood but not now. 5/10
Alright. 7/10
Perfect mood music for wandering around in an unfamiliar town at 3 AM after you have hit your fifth bar for the after-after-afterparty.
what a boring beat, that piano isn't even trying 2/10
the mixing is fucking awful, the drums sound like they're in another room entirely and the vocals are just way too high. I enojyed their album stereo but this pretty generic bleh 4.5/10
This is very weird and it doesn't really connect with me. Some nice riff's, but overall not really interesting 5/11

Nice rainy day music. Moody yet uplifting
Thanks! (it was some self promotion)
Maybe I'm too much of a boomer to "get" it, but it just sounds like a mishmash of different musical concepts that doesn't quite gel. Aggro in a forced, headache-inducing way. I'd rate it a 7 or a 8 if I were a 14 year old meathead tryna do my best Rollins impression in the basement gym
As for my share, I play this a lot whilst driving in the twisties https://youtu.be/7QHuz649kLU
Dead thread?

i remembered it worse, still pretty unremarkable riff. I like the ending with his voice 5/10
Haha, I was just basing that "review" on my personal experience. Walked in the rain to that one, and the clouds cleared just as the song picked up.
