No Trend - More

(Click to enlarge.)

Why do I like No Trend? Because I just do. If you don't get it, then you probably never will. The No Hopus Opus is as relevant today as when it was first recorded (whatever that means).

Track Listing
1. Intro
2. Fuzzy Dice
3. Sorry I Asked
4. Spank Me (With Your Love Monkey, Baby)
5. Last On Right, Second Row
6. Bel-Pre Declining
7. No Hopus Opus

Raw Power - Trust Me!

The other day, my 4-year old daughter and I were driving down the road. She said, "Daddy, I wanna hear some Rock-N-Roll!" So I played her Raw Power. She pumped her fist, and screamed, "Now, that's Rock-N-Roll!!!"

Sure is, sweetie. She knows how to make her father proud.

This album from 2000 compares very favorably with earlier material (for a change). Play it LOUD for the children.

Track List:

1. Feed Them Grazioli
2. Give Me A Drink
3. What Can We Do?
4. Suicidal
5. Take Your Hands Off Me!
6. Can't Put Up With It
7. Behind The Door
8. Not Here, Not Now, Not Me
9. George
10. Can't Do That
11. Don't Blame Me
12. Poverty
13. We Hate You
14. Back In U.S.
15. Hey, Bastard
16. Trust Me!

Joy Division - Warsaw Studio Demos 1978 & 1979 aka "Fun Multiplication II" bootleg

Joy Division - Warsaw Studio Demos 1978 & 1979
aka "Fun Multiplication II" bootleg
(Click to enlarge)

Now that it's time to start posting direct music, rather than old downloads, I though I would start with one of my favorite CDs (at least judging by the number of times I listened to it). Joy Division - Warsaw Studio Demos 1978 & 1979 aka "Fun Multiplication II" bootleg is much rawer than most of their studio albums, and that's probably why I like it so much.

Track Listing:

All of This For You
Leaders Of Men
Failures
Novelty
They Walked In Line
No Love Lost
Exercice One (First Peel Session)
Insight (First Peel Session)
She ‘s Lost Control (First Peel Session)

MC Hawking sez "Fuck the Creationists!"

Few know (or seem to care) that world famous physicist Steven W. Hawking leads a double life as a ruthless gangsta rapper with the tag line MC Hawking.

Now available is all his past downloads that you can't get right now. Also includes Why Won't Jesse Helms just hurry up and die? (thankfully, the fat pig-fucker finally did), and others that your mama would be appalled if you missed.

Deviation

Concluding (for now) the earlier Belorussian theme, Deviation is interesting and has more range than the previous two selections. In fact, the lead singer actually sings. Imagine.

Cuba punk rocker spared jail term

Cuba punk rocker spared jail term:

A court in Havana, Cuba, has ordered a punk rock musician to pay a fine of $30 (£15) for public disorder for playing his band's music too loud.

However, Gorki Aguila was cleared of a more serious charge that could have led to a jail sentence.

The lead singer of band Porno Para Ricardo is known for songs that ridicule Cuba's communist government.

He had faced a possible four year term in prison for the crime known in Cuba as social dangerousness.

The controversial law allows the jailing of people who the authorities believe have been displaying behaviour that would indicate they could be on the verge of committing a crime.

Antiglobalizator

Even though I don't speak Belorussian (at least I assume), I really can't get enough of this band. Antiglobalizator, from Belarus, features both male anf female vocals, and they sound really pissed off. They also really rock hard. Unfortunately, these tracks download at a glacial speed (not to mention frequent time outs), which would probably discourage most people. (Check out the source Here.) Therefore, I'm going to offer it here. Spread the word.

The Creeps

Here's a gem I came across a few years back by somebody calling themselves The Creeps. I don't know anything about the band. I am also not going to name the song. You'll understand if you download the song and listen to it. Who needs that kind of trouble? Whatever.

The Fall - Live at Victoria University NZ 9-8-1982

The Fall, at least for the first eight years or so, is my favorite band in the world. The band, based in Manchester England, has been around since the mid-1970s. One of the things I appreciate about the earlier era of The Fall is the syncopation. Since the 1980s, The Fall has experienced dozens of different line-ups. It might be the longest lasting of the original Punk/New Wave, and certainly has produced more albums than almost anyone else. The only constant (although he doesn't necessarily sing on every track) is frontman Mark E. Smith. Since the min-1980s, The Fall has basically been his project. Some of the later stuff I like; others not so much.

Anyway, this first direct download features a live "album" from 1982 that was once featured on the The Unofficial Fall Website (which at the time was the official website). The link is now dead, but you can now get it here. I also tried to enhance it a bit.

Drunk And Armed - The Hippo Tumor Mixes

As of now, this blog, besides trolling the internet for music downloads, will start presenting original music downloads on occasion. You'll know the difference, because I'll actually write a little something about the downloads. For my first two such posts, the offering will be music for which I played a part.

The Hippo Tumor Mixes are the product of several demo tapes made by Drunk And Armed in 2000 & 2001 (except for the first track which was recorded in 2004), and represents my first efforts at re-mixing. The Hippo Tumor name was taken from a documentary on the Discovery Channel. The cover photo, above, was taken in the Skagit Valley, which is known for its fertile crop lands, in winter.
