ILX pre-covers Animal Collective's "Centipede Hz"

I wrote lyrics! I managed to use the words "adoption" and "marionette"

i wrote lyrics too! I use the words "ziggurats" and "corpses"

respect

mine is complete. it's really loosely recorded and just kind of tossed out there, but has something going on.

I'm glad that *someone* else put some effort into it, Sarahel and DJP! Looking forward to hearnig. I'm quite proud of my lyrics, counterpointing astronomical facts with the demand for the impossible. With ecstatic house piano bits inbetween.

it's due for sunday ??
damn, I thought it was for the end of the month and I'm quite busy this week...
Oh well, I guess the pressure can't be bad for the motivation and creativity !
I have most of the track done anyway. but all the vocals left to record (and I wrote the lyrics during an insomniac night last night).

Just a remainder to send tracks or download links to me at ned at kuci dot org -- thanks!

Also, anyone want a crack at cover art?

I think folks have been put off by having to live up to the impossibly high standard of cover art that AC have set for this thing.

Great, I'm going to smear some peanut butter on some crackers, then.

Honestly, you could smear whatever you want on those crackers and it still couldn't look more unappetizing than the real one.

That looks like the cover of a bad Neuromancer knockoff from 1988.

what the shit

"Featuring remixes from Front Line Assembly"

When I said the quality was impossibly high, I think I actually meant to say possibly high

xp: "and Psykosonik"

I think you meant to say the artist was high.

i think i am the only person who kind of likes that cover

Just reminds me of the lips from the Rocky Horror Picture Show laid on top of uh, the Flaming Lips' Clouds Taste Metallic or something

Basically it's

wauw

A wholly accurate prediction!

I am listening to some of it now and it's like if the Cult had made Pop instead of U2

hey ned we are recording sunday nite so is late sunday/monday morning ok?

sorry dad lyfe got me twisted

All good!

I'm doing pretty good on mine right now added a ton of guitars cos i figured they were talking about garage influence so i'm trying to make it electronic garage. It's basically Bo Diddley but i'm trying to noise it up a bunch.

tons of guitars = two lol

turns out i will something for this! ned, i'll send it sometime (late) tonight, because i'm going to be out of town the rest of the week.

should be in your inbox, Ned.

Received, thanks!

drums and samples are done, now for the rest of the instruments and the vocals

ned just emailed u, don't delete it, it is not spam

Got it!

argh, I thought I could do some work on this yesterday but not possible. so I only have sat and sunday left !
It's going to be kinda rushed and raw...

mine is very rushed and raw. i'm not 100 percent happy with it but i'm at pitchfork fest all weekend so i knew i was going to have to submit it now or never.

Just sent mine - sound quality could be better but I have limited resources! Otherwise quite happy with how it turned out.

Got it, thanks!

We still need cover art, folks.

Ned, just a quick check - I sent you my track on the 26th, did you receive it?

Yes! Sorry if I didn't reconfirm.

did you get mine? because I haven't sent it yet and if you've already got it, I won't kill myself this weekend working on it
