Title: What have you downloaded with your free song?
Post by: ratioci nation on March 01, 2005, 04:54:00 pm
I am having trouble deciding which songs I should download from Itunes with my Pepsi free song caps.  Give me some ideas.  Other than Billy Gilman.

reeeally, i had not heard that ... good combination i think ... in the past they had been pigeonholed into the hardcore/anarchist punk scene, and they're so so so much more dynamic than that
 
 i guess it says a lot about a band if you can have the blood brothers open for you, then do a split with lucero

Saved up 3 caps, got Ted Leo's Sharkbite Sessions:
 1) Loyal to my Sorrowful Country
 2) Six Months in a Leaky Boat (Split Endz cover)
 3) Suspect Device (Stiff Little Fingers cover)
 
 They're all full band versions.  Pretty good overall, Suspect Device is missing something, possibly a slower pace than they play in concert.

From the Sunday NY Times:
 
 
 My Chemical Romance
 
 
 Emo is in its own slump (after the feeding frenzy of 2003), but someone forgot to tell this wild-eyed New Jersey band, which just released yet another absurd video for yet another grand, death-obsessed love song. In "Helena" (watch it at www.mychemicalromance.com (http://www.mychemicalromance.com)), the singer Gerard Way presides over a carefully choreographed punk-rock wake: a church full of mourners twirl and tumble in time to the frantic beat.

no... because no matter how hard i try to slog my way through a warped or take action sampler, i ended  pounding my head on the decks wondering why they even call it punk anymore.  rancid wrote the last good punk songs and that ain't saying much...

I'll take them... Kosmette uses them to recreate old mix tapes people gave her.  And there are actually a couple of tracks I'm mildly interested in.
 
 Marc Romboy vs Blake Baxter
 Charlotte Hatherley (Ash guitarist)

I ended up downloading the first track off of the Josh Rouse album (liked the sample of that better), I like it, but not sure I am ready to buy the album, it is 11.99 at olssons by the way, got the new Wedding Present instead

I give mine to the mrs too.  I'm too embarrassed to tell you what she buys with them, but at least I don't have to stand in line at Amoeba with the CD's I purchase for her any longer.

Actually, it's "grating", followed by "awful", "tuneless" and "utter waste of time".
 
 Pull up M. Ward's name and get either Sweetheart on Parade or Big Boat. "Transistor Radio" is a great record (especially if yer a Sparklehorse fan).
 
 Or pull up Brazilian Girls and get "Pussy". It's a tune everyone can enjoy.

I'd recommend The Sound of German Hip-Hop from the new Clem Snide
 
 Also liking several tracks I downloaded by The Ponys
