Full ensemble this time, mostly metal.

Its practically an EP!
Except for the fact that its just 1 take per track, recorded with 1 shit condenser mic (in mono, obviously), just at a practise.
Rough as hell, and the vox are quiet, but i naturally think it sounds awesome :)

I play guitar, and occasionally murmer something into the mic (my freind Steve (good old steve) wrote all of this except for one track which is obviously a cover, I just play it live, although i did write a few of the accompaniments) 

So, uh, seems you guys know your stuff and all, but the recording quality is really bad so one can hardly make out anything really. Vocals are almost inaudible, bass and high hats too strong. Needs proper rec equipment/mastering or at least better volume tuning of each component, garage-style. Tetris ftw, though. 

I know :)
Seriously I just used an old Fostex 8track into one channel with the internal condenser mic.
On a chair, right infront of the guitar amps :)

Slight change of pace (and since no-one ever posts musical shiznat). Bluegrass.

Heh, that's cool. Listening to it atm. Quite like Buck 65's mid-career stuff (Talkin' Honky Blues) except more with slightly more focus on the bluegrass.

Starts off slow but gets interesting later on! 

I can never get that site to work, I hit play but nothing happens. :/ 

it just worked, just now :O 

Mehh, it's ok.. but i'd hoped it'd have a bit more humping dub rather than reciting the whole radio monologue over a miss-mash of sound. 

Thas cos it's dubstep not dub. Is different.

All about the beautiful re-mastering of the jackson 5 track in the background (the bass boost on the horn is lovely).

And Kurdt just sounds so damn cheerful ;) 

that was... weird.

can anyone recommend any decent sites similar to jamendo? i shared my album on there and it's getting a surprisingly high amount of downloads & feedback so thinking about spreading the love a little bit. it's on myspace as well but with barely any hits 

reverbnation.com 

I highly recommend http://soundcloud.com

If you want I could ask the Ektoplazm(.com) guy if he has a netlabel recommendation where you could "apply" for a release. I don't know any netlabel for music like this.

Hearted your album earlier, then some day it was gone and I meant to ask you about it. I really love it. 

i took it down because they omitted the last track when approving it (falsely believing it was a cover because it had '(reprise)' appended to the title) and it's pretty much the most important track on the album! i've put it back up now though in its entirety. thanks for the comments either way :)

forgot about soundcloud; i added it on there too, although it hasn't seen that many plays. i know almost nothing about netlabels though so if you could drop that guy a line then that would really be appreciated. i'm thinking of moving in a slightly darker more psychy direction with future stuff so getting on ektoplazm could work out well. doubt i'll get anything put out before RMQ is finished though...

cheers for the recommendation ricky, will check them out! 

another is http://magnatune.com/
btw, can I check out your album on jamendo? (I'm not sure how to find it :-)
