i saw dan linked to this from the U2 thread but maybe we should start a new thread to officially release the album today, since the U2 album comes out tomorrow

I like that idea; we should also link it all over the place.

Tombot said he may contact you later this week; if you want me to pester him, lemme know.

I have snoball's 320kbs version now.
I've uploaded all of the tracks to fairtilizer except tom's, aleXTC's, and nabisco's. if I don't get anything in the next 5 hours or so I'll just upload the ones I have and put the link to the streaming version here.

is there anyway to unzip a file without winzip? the fuckers want me to pay for it.
― bay bay (a hoy hoy), Monday, March 2, 2009 3:12 AM (7 hours ago) Bookmark
that's weird, I thought uncompressing zip files was native to PCs & Macs now?
you could probably just download a trial version of some other software like winrar and unzip it.
also, streaming version will be up later today.

dude just right click and "extract here" instead of actually opening up the winrar software. i had the same problem but that trick lets you bypass paying for it until god knows when

I can't believe I missed this up until now. Will have to get the mister to download it as I can't play anything on this computer.

In further news, Tom basically said "my DSL is crappy so fuck a 320 kbps". Want me to try twisting his arm?
― Lots of praying with no breakfast! (HI DERE), Tuesday, 3 March 2009 17:13 (fifteen years ago) link
This is awesome!
― jel --, Tuesday, 3 March 2009 17:27 (fifteen years ago) link
tell tom to stop whining and just send the goddamn file, the response should be lulzy
I'm not trying to be the bitrate nazi here, it would just be cool if we had 320kbs from everyone. you, elvis t, snoball + m bison all resubmitted 320kbs versions, I haven't heard anything from AleXTC or nabisco.
if I get any additional 320kbs versions I'll upload 'em to fairtilizer, and if by a miracle I get all the tracks at 320kbs I'll reup a new version to sendspace.

Guys, shall I host this on my helpful webspace?
― Mark G, Wednesday, 4 March 2009 11:17 (fifteen years ago) link
Is your site the one where the ILX comps are archived? Speaking for myself I think it would be a good idea.
― snoball, Wednesday, 4 March 2009 11:40 (fifteen years ago) link
That's the one.
― Mark G, Wednesday, 4 March 2009 11:41 (fifteen years ago) link
Personally I say go for it. Although you might have a lot of enraged U2 fans e-mailing you when they download it and it's not U2!
― snoball, Wednesday, 4 March 2009 11:53 (fifteen years ago) link
I'll get it sorted.
― Mark G, Wednesday, 4 March 2009 11:56 (fifteen years ago) link
mark, it's cool if you want to do this, the more places this is out there the better, but before you spend a bunch of time on it be aware that ppl can already download selective tracks from the fairtilizer stream.
― 鬼の手 (Edward III), Wednesday, 4 March 2009 13:58 (fifteen years ago) link
Ah, it'll just be one page, with pic and track links, format similar to pages already there.

Yeah, some seriously catchy songs on here.
My new thing has been looking for No Line on the Horizon reviews and reading them as if the were done against this compilation.

the funny thing is I don't think I have heard the U2 version of "my" track entirely yet (I've heard a snippet in a commercial for ipods or something) and right now, I don't remember at all how it goes !
― AlXTC from Paris, Saturday, 16 January 2010 17:42 (fourteen years ago) link
I've heard about half the chorus of "mine". It goes "get on your boots your sexy boots" or something. Haven't heard any of the other U2 tracks.

― Body Butter (a hoy hoy), Sunday, 17 January 2010 10:02 (fourteen years ago) link
But U2 only release an album every four years! We should e-mail Bono and get him to send us all U2's unused song titles so we can write piss take parodies.
― an executive by day and a wild man by night (snoball), Sunday, 17 January 2010 10:05 (fourteen years ago) link
Maybe whenever ILX Vol. 4 comes out, U2 can take our song titles and mock us instead with their own U2notILX project.

I'm listening to "our" album right now (some friends made me a vinyl edition... might sell well on ebay !).still great !is there a major artist/band album expected in the coming months ?
― AlXTC from Paris, Sunday, 17 January 2010 10:09 (fourteen years ago) link
Yeah I didn't mean just U2, like I dunno, the new album by a big act that sucks and deserves the ilx treatment. Red Hot Chili Peppers for ilx2010?
