I think I suffer from that pretty badly as well, especially coming 13 seconds after EdIII's marvellous blast of raucousness (xp)
but hey it's not a prob, listen to the whole thing damn loud imo
ken c's is one of the real underrated growers here i think

I've got "Denver Diatribe" on my list of favorites here, so I guess it hit its mark!
― Pleasant Plains, Thursday, 9 December 2010 21:03 (thirteen years ago) link
"Snowblood""Denver Diatribe""Blues Name""Song for Denver Lucas""House of Clocks""Production"and "Steering" all made me sit up and take notice.
Special, special recognition to all the Clonefeed songs. I wrote all of those down too. I would buy any Sega game for the soundtrack alone based on those songs.
Two Denver songs, eh? "Denver Lucas" could almost be a cover of an outtake from later Minutemen album.

This is v good! I could play favourites but maybe I'll give it a few more listens first as there's just so much to take in.
(Still sad that smoke came out of my computer when I was hoping to work on it but would've been totally outclassed so all good in the end)

I'm sure more of the others will latch on after a few more listens, but on Day 1, those were the ones that stood out.
I dare someone to create a poll that ends in a year.

this is excellent!

It is making me so so happy that everyone is enjoying this so much!
― it is thursday now (Stevie D(eux)), Friday, 10 December 2010 04:22 (thirteen years ago) link
my two big favorites are "Song for Denver Lucas" and "Repetition Pears 77"
lotta good stuff on here -- lou & surm, Grannykart, crüt, P Nunez... latebloomer's tracks are kinda hysterical, I'm not sure if he meant them to be funny or not...felt like he was channelling mid-70s Devo
― pixel farmer, Friday, 10 December 2010 04:31 (thirteen years ago) link
Thanks for the nice words. I've been enjoying this so much, honoured to be part of such an accomplished and fantastic sounding compilation! Kudos to everyone involved.

Some are 'long things, shortened'
Some are 'exactly the right length'
Only one is 'didn't need to be that long, did it?' which is the point, kinda.

Buh, realised there's about six more songs that could go on here.
If anyone feels this comp is lacking in some retarded punk, feel free to fill it out with these:

Hi.
This is the song I recorded for this compilation. I never submitted it because I wasn't happy with it. But now in hindsight I think it's kind of fun:

daymare nation, terminal station total nihilation, noise divinationhit the black lights and I spring into actioneverything's moving in a circular fashion
disco balls, hotel bloedel no need to wash a taint cuz my shit don't smell hit bong rips while yr sister trips we're smokin pixie sticks with a pair of roach clips
(I'm a hot and bothered astronaut) eatin corn dogs with sriracha sauce, get yr tube top off bass mutilation, prognosticationtrash gets off on zombie penetration
here is the church, here is the steepleopen up the doors (I see dead people)flunked science but one thing I knowmix ben-gay with K-Y, you could make a hormone
never got along with my coacheslike upson pratt hates roacheswhen I shine I shine like a fly in yr wineyr card was declined, PVD divine (doggone girl is mine)
