Forum....finally

So I set up a very bare-bones forum.  This will be alot easier than posting links in the shoutbox and should help keep things organized. I didnt want to make it where you had to register but I figured it would be best in the long run.

The blog will still be the main source of new posts from me and ccr for the time being, but set up your account while you can....

Its definetly a work in progress but keep an eye on it.



PS - If anyone has experience setting these things up...give me a shout

I first head Crystal Castles right around a year ago. This may certainly not be your cup of tea, but to listen to Crystal Castles"is to be cast adrift in a vortex of deafening pain without a safety net. You get the feeling you could do anything in the world, but that 'anything' would ultimately mean nothing. Crystal Castles marks a nuanced emotional territory that dance music never covered before." That was taking from the BBC. Obviously they do a better job than be. Again, just listen and be amazed.

I first heard of Minus the Bear sometime around the summer of 05. It was the song Pachuca Sunrise, which has become one of their signature songs. Now this band has crazy time signatures, synths/beyboards and awesome lyrics. Their fist album "Highly Refined Pirates" stars out with the lyrics "Then We All Bought Yatchs". Perfect way to start the album. There are a lot of good time/fun/party songs on this album. And most of all, don't let the song titles keep you away. ;)

I'm going to start off this little "Indie" update with my favorite band. We all know we listen to Texas Country on this blog, but I'm sure everyone here listens to different genres. May that be country, rap, hip-hop or jazz. With that in mind, I'm going to upload some albums which I recommend you checking out.

Modest Mouse. I first heard of them back in 2004. The song was "Float On" off their 4th studio album "Good News For People Who Love Bad News" The music video was playing on MTV and I was hooked instantly. "Float On" is a very catchy song. Reviews came out stating that "Good News" Was to pop and wasn't the style of MM, but I came to realize that every bands style and sound can't stay the same. I finally was able to pick up a couple of "Good News" and the 2004 re-issue of The Moon And Antarctica on Black Friday 2004.

I'll start off with "This Is A Long Drive For Someone With Nothing To Think About" This is Modest Mouse's first studio release. It took me a little while to get the full couple of this album. I was still stuck on their new releases but I heard this album I was amazed. The songs on this album are on both ends of the spectrum with some in between. It will take a while to get used to Isaac Brocks vocals and quite possibly his lyrics. I'm not the best at writing reviews, but give this album a listen and let me know how you feel about it. The songs that stick out the most to be on the album are "Dramamine" "Breakthrough" "Custom Concern" 'Head South" "Tundra/Desert" "Talking Shit About A Pretty Sunset" "Make Everyone Happy/Mechanical Birds"

Now after you listen to this album, I would like some of you to review and write about in the comments, because I really like to hear what others have to say about this band.

JDownloader



I thought I'd highlight this better (its hiding in the FAQs) for those of you who haven't seen or heard of JDownloader

Basically what it does is it queues a bunch of rapidshare, megaupload, mediafire, etc links.  It even has captcha recognition.

It can be semi-difficult to get it setup the first time (its java based and has a bunch of options), but once its set up the way you like, its a smooth and painless process to get all of our music. All you do is hold ALT while clicking a link and it automatically starts. 

If you need help setting yours up or have other questions dont hesitate to ask.
Note: If you use firefox (which you should because its more secure) then you need to get the FlashGot plugin.

The song I heard on my local radio station was Big City Baby. I must have heard it about 10-15 times before I found out who sang it. Then one day, I was like, I gotta hear what this band has to offer. I was blown away. If you just listen to this album from start to finish you would understand what I'm saying. The lyrics are right on. The instruments on this album are perfect. Everything seems to flow on this album. You have some fast songs, and slow songs that tell great stories. I might have to mention this has my favorite album of '09 even though it came out in 07. Definitely pick up this album. It will not disappoint.

Charlie Shafter Band - 2005 - Orange

10. You Could Be
11. The End

I first heard of the Charlie Shafter Band on my local radio station also. This is their first release. This and their next release are different to me. 17th & Chicago has a more relaxed/chill feel. It seems as it was produced better and the instruments on that album are fantastic. But I think you can say every bands first release isn't all the best produced.

Joey Green Band - 2008 - Vinyl Destination


1. Blue Jeans
2. Waste Of Time
3. Spinnin' Round In Circles
4. Reach
5. Silk Apologies
6. Torino
7. Expectations
8. Damned Lonely

10. Canvas and Chains
11. Alone Tonight
12. The Cheatin' Kind

Another band I heard on the local radio station. The song was Damned Lonely. I heard the song numerous times on the station and I thought I had to get the CD. CD turned out to be great. Joey Green writes some different lyrics, but don't let that you stop from listening to them. Hope to check them out live once they come around here.

Full Throttle - 2006 - Drive


1. Intro

I'm going to be uploading some artist who I enjoy a lot and think you should know.

I first heard Full Throttle on the local radio station. The song was Matador and I was hooked every since. Well Full Throttle was a short lived band. Only lasting 3-4 year maybe, but they put out two great records. I've seen them play live twice. One on a stage outside the SA Rodeo and another at one of the Annual Reunion/Christmas shows at Sam's Burger Joint. Don't let this band go past you. Also check out Keegan Reed Band. The bass players new band. http://www.myspace.com/keeganreedmusic

New Editor and some changes maybe?

First of all everybody officially welcome ccr Ive made him an editor now so he can stop posting links in the shout box also Ive been crazy busy and will continue to be.

I really want to hear from you guys on this one...use the comments button of this post pls

1) Im looking for something where I can do requests separate from the shoutbox just to keep it more organized and keep people for asking for the same thing over and over any idea of what i could use?  Forum on the way.... anyone have experience setting these up?

2) Is there anything you guys think this site is missing? And dont say new content I know already

3) Do you guys like the site the way it is organized/setup, more specifically the tags feature being "Artist:zzzz" instead of ZZZZ being there (I thought it was a good idea to keep them separate so people could jump to other tags like "discography" easier.) Is it hard to read?

4) Most importantly have you told anyone about this site? My unofficial goal is to have that little counter be 5 digits before Jan 1.

Also Ive added the megaupload box on the bottom left....for all of you reluctant uploaders...all you need to do its rar or zip your files (no passwords!) and click browse and select the file...enter a simple description and then click send itll give you a link thats really tiny but you can click it and itll take you to where the file is hosted then just cut and paste into the shoutbox
and Im sorry that its cut off but when i change the look of this thing ill make it work better but i figure its better than nothing and just so you know it does upload all the files to one account that i made just for you guys so i will probably (depending on how popular it is) every week or so make a post with everything yall have upped



hit up those comments some more....
