let's release the U2 album before U2 releases the U2 album

Speaking of which, I'm yet to read that novel... xp

lightning round virtual supergroup.

ahah. "rock band" online session !

ZS is onboard for the cover

nabisco, elvis, any updates? are you avoiding us?

I will be done today.

yay !
u2's album will be released on the 28th, right ?

march 3 in the US

ok. so it would be great to release it right before them.
maybe we should keep the same album title as theirs to confuse the fans who will try to dl it.

Did you guys ever come up with a title? It's fine if there isn't one, but if a specific title must appear on the cover, now is the time.

same title as the U2 album! has to be!

we thought about "no ilx on the horizon" but I was wondering if it wouldn't be a good idea to stick to the original title (since we kept the original song titles !).

from wikipedia
U2.com later confirmed the album will be released on 27 February 2009 in Ireland, 2 March in the UK and 3 March in North America

no lol on the horizon

did some recording last night, doing some more tonight

last time gr8080 posted on the thread was a month ago. he said he finished his track, did you ever get it n/a?

did I read somewhere gr8080 has gone off the internets because of us?

where did u read that?

I thought I saw somebody post some "gr8080 RIP" message in passing, but I have been known to be and could now be wrong

dude ilxes in spurts, he'll be back eventually

hopefully before friday

i never got anything from grady, this list is still current in terms of songs i actually have:

01 No Line on the Horizon - Curt1s ("I will have mine in by Friday.")
02 Magnificent - m bison ("yo ive got most of a song going, will record vox this week")
03 Moment of Surrender - gr8080 ("yeah mine's done" - submitted?)
04 Unknown Caller - 6335 ("recording tomorrow (feb 25), will hopefully get most of it finished.")
05 I'll Go Crazy If I Don't Go Crazy Tonight - AleXTC ***
06 Get on Your Boots - snoball ***
07 Stand Up Comedy - n/a ***
08 Fez - Being Born- TOMBOT ***
09 White as Snow - Elvis Telecom ("Mixing again tonight." feb 16)
10 Breathe - nabisco ("I might be screwed on this due to houseguests, but I have something written and can hopefully throw it together before they arrive" feb 18)
11 Cedars of Lebanon - ned/edward iii ("song's done, just doing some EQing, will be in by friday deadline")

fyi cedars is a 3 way (n/h) collaboration between ned, ed, and myself

don't let this die

btw, if you want I can retitle one of the tracks I did in Rebirth back in 1997 and mail it to you to substitute for gr8080's track if it doesn't come through

Almost done...

If this doesn't work I can always make an alternate version.

Wait, use this one instead: I cleaned up a few stray pixels at the top border:

A++++++++++++++++++++++

I knew we could count on you

if ilx was monty python you'd be terry gilliam

lol excellent!

ahah.
only 1 day left... the pressure is on : will we make it ?

Z S, wow!!!

finishing my track tonight no matter what - scrapped what i had before and started over yesterday

hoping everyone makes it in, i'm probably going to be pulling a late nighter tonight for this and i'm already running low on sleep. for you, IMM!

sent

have the whole instrumental, will have tomorrow night in the midnight hour

99% finished, needs a few minor mixing tweaks and i'll send it in around lunchtime

got curtis' tune, sounds nice ... hopefully this afternoon i'll figure out a way to present this to the public. i can just upload the album to sendspace as suggested above and start a new thread for the album release once it's ready; what would be the awesomest is if people could stream the songs too, but i don't really know how to do that unless i upload each song individually to zshare as well

Oh, guys, sorry for sucking on this -- I've been working on it, but like I said upthread, there have been houseguest issues all week, including a toddler sleeping in the room where I'd normally record stuff ...

We said end of the month, right? Cuz my plan was to finish it up tomorrow now that people are gone...

everybody's trying to get theirs in today but I will rep for a nabisco extension due to extenuating houseguests

I'm in final mix mode so will have something to u today n/a

are we taking up dan on his offer to cover gr8080's spot or is anybody in the mood for a lightning round virtual supergroup?

just let me know, it will involve some digging through my hard drive but I have 4 -6 tracks complete enough to fill gaps.

do any of them have the words "moment", "of", and/or "surrender" y/n

Note: if I can't get anything finished pretty early tomorrow morning, I will at least send a recording of me breathing into a microphone and saying "bbbbrrreeeaaaatttthhhheeee" through heavy reverb in a fake Irish accent

that actually would be a good lead-in to the steaming pile of doom skronk omar, ned, & I are dropping.

just sent my track to you, n/a. use the 2nd (shorter) vers if you will

do any of them have the words "moment", "of", and/or "surrender" y/n

n, they are instrumentals

o wait so any random ilxor could intone "moment of surrender" over them that's perfect

if I had a microphone, I would do it myself

maybe we use the instrumental for the initial release than provide a "remix" with vocals?

or maybe ned could read gabbnebb's last post or better yet lj's infamous orgy story

(I'm only half-joking)

loooooooooooooooooooooool that would be mean

moment of suggbander

Just uploaded my track and notified n/a!
