here it is. nice to hear mason's voice again, and it sounds very beta band-ish....but i'm halfway through and already disappointed.

I was able to track down the South album so don't bother uploading it if you were considering.

Now that you have it, be so kind and throw that bad boy up!

Is the rest of it as bad as the single (C I AM)

the No Style EP was pretty good as was (from memory, haven't heard it for years) the Sings Nelly Foggits Blues in Me and the Pharaohs EP from 1998

good moz rip is out

i will throw up Show Your Bones in the near future. in the meantime, is there any Sunset Rubdown fans around? Ive got 3 tracks from the upcoming LP, but if the whole thing has leaked, someone let me know mmkay?!

Next time I get a chance I will. I'm playing WoW right now though, so I don't want to lag down my game anymore than it already is.

"I Will See You in Far Off Places" reminds me of Killing Joke's "Communion"...

the whole Sunset Rubdown has leaked, and is great

i agree, it's very good.

i am lacking in so much good music right now...it is a sad time to be me. at least i have the fiery furnaces to keep me company though.

yeah, i suppose if you play the fiery furnaces enough people stop dropping by.

ouch, not a Furnaces fan i take it? thats a shame, cuz the Friedergers are such nice people...and Bitter Tea is wonderful...but you already knew that

New stephin Merritt CD out Tuesday on Nonesuch.


Showtunes.

Stephin Merritt's Showtunes is set for release on March 14 on Nonesuch Records. The record contains a selection of compositions created for Chen Shi-Zheng's Orphan of Zhao (2003), Peach Blossom Fan (2004), and My Life as a Fairy Tale (2005). The complete recorded score for each play, including selections not on the CD, will be available online through iTunes and most major pay-per-download services.

is it 10 tracks? or 9?

10

...and........?

Hey, would you mind posting the new Fiery Furnaces?

actually i like them quite a bit, (still dont totally love the new one, it's almost too schizophrenic), but putting on something like Rehearsing My Choir is not going to keep guests around.

It's not bad, but the last album was better.

I was just kinda hintin"....about an up

the new Red Animal War album, Seven Year War, has leaked. not that anyone but me probably cares.

hoping this is better than Polizida. their first one, Breaking In An Angel was one of my faves of '01

actually, i dont have the full thing...i have 9 of (i think) 14 tracks. i did a little grunt work, and got them through various places in the blogosphere (using Catbirdseat as my base of operations) so if anyone has the whole thing i would like it too

here is some Islands for yo suckas that missed out on them up til now (although it is still early, this is one of the years best)

I'd be interested. Upping the south now. I'll PM it to anyone who's interested in about 4 hours when I get home from a party.

Jazz influenced album that's out now in Norway and will be out here in a couple weeks. More traditional rock album to follow later this year. Minor Detail is a beautiful song, and there are a couple of covers as well, such as Night and Day and Elvis Costello's Human Hands. Track 12 is a little fucked up in terms of how it's ripped I think.

that one is pretty great so far. wasn't too big on his 2nd record but absolutely adored Faces Down.

you hit me with a flower

For those of you who download this and want to know the proper track order:

01 I Will See You in Far-Off Places
02 Dear God Please Help Me
03 You Have Killed Me
04 The Youngest Was the Most Loved
05 In The Future When All's Well
06 The Father Who Must Be Killed
07 Life Is a Pigsty
08 I'll Never Be Anybody's Hero Now
09 On The Streets I Ran
10 To Me You Are a Work of Art
11 I Just Want to See the Boy Happy
12 At Last I Am Born

ok, that got bloxxored

That Sondre Lerche album is excellent. Two Way Monologue, the one he released in '04 also fantastic.

you heard his first one, Faces Down? if not def check it out, really good stuff.

Thanks for the new Sondre Lerche. Guy's a bright light, no doubt. Three for three.

Whose brilliant idea was it to put that song second? Talk about a momentum killer

The second Morrissey link has been blocked.

Could someone put it back up, please?

would some gracious soul please up sunset rubdown's shut up im dreaming? i can no longer wait til May 2...

man.

I have...what....160 something posts and have never outright asked for someone to up something. I think these newbies with very few posts are a bit much. Man, have some manners.....
as for the lurkers who aren't even registered....

yes, the board-as-marketplace (even though i have been a heavy contributor to the phenomenon) has become a big drag.

I did say "please."

If you guys would post something interesting, it wouldn't be board-as-marketplace.

Before you interslap me:

Giant Drag - Hearts and Unicorns
http://rapidshare.de/files/14836103/Giant_Drag.zip.html

I will now ask for whatever I want and expect to get it.

Thanks for posting that link from another blog!

As promised, here's a better rip of the excellent new Katatonia album:

The YSI business is getting out of hand. I guess I have no right to complain since I upload as much as any other poster, and download quite a bit. I still think YSIing of albums should be moved to another board.

i apologize for my ignorance. i guess i assumed that when a discussion is titled "2006 Leaked Albums/ YSI Thread" that it would be a place to post YSI links. as far as complaints about requests, they are just that: polite requests. if you do not want to comply, dont. oh, and although i have only 9 posts, i have already posted 2 YSI links. save the lurkers speech for those that dont contribute anything if you'd please. that is a "lurker" after all.

On the whole lurking subject. If anyone wants the newest South effort I have it uploaded. Just send me a PM or post a request for it here. I'm not going to post the link for this one cause it'll get a.) blocked or b.) lurkers will go over it like whoa. I want a bit of lurker control on my efforts.

My point was that I'm starting to think this thread shouldn't have YSIs in it anymore. If you read my post again you'll notice I never said a thing about lurkers. But since you brought it up, all the YSing is attracting a bunch of people who basically do nothing but ask for YSIs, or one or two themselves so they can use it to legitimize the YSI requests they then go on to make. And I'm sure there is an even greater number who download without even registering.

I'm not trying to take a shot at you personally, since you've at least attempted to actually discuss music in your posts (albiet almost soley in this thread). It's directed at all the people who do nothing but ask for uploads or just leech without posting a thing.

edit: the PM idea might be the best solution to the whole situation, actually. It's a little more work for the uploader but does a better job keeping lurkers away, and it's a little less drastic than moving YSIing to a whole new board.

the point is, we don't know who you are. we are superior to you because we've been here longer and have posted more. get it?

it's just a matter of knowing your place.

when i was new, i played by the rules and bowed down to people like hickman (now ballbag hitter). i suggest you do the same, noob.

It never went anywhere.

well, i thank you dano for being understanding, and i think that the PM idea is a smart one. i realize that im a noob to this board (as Dr. Jimmy helpfully pointed out ), but im all about the music nonetheless. after all, the prospect of talking about music is what brought me to this board in the first place.
