Starting off with a local favorite that is more obscure on a global scale, a nice song about hanging yourself. A great ff song I forgot about. A bumpin' n.w.a track that isn't just mindless shit... A great john maus track like joy division but not really. my favorite daft punk song. A good track by the dwarves...A great jay reatard track, shockingly he is influenced by the dwarves. I saw him play this song live and he didnt sing the coda :(( the demo of here comes your man is better than the real version. A fantastic acoustic song. The best pavement song ever. The best devendra banhart song ever. The best akron/family song ever. FUck my hands are all cold

Episode 9: I Know That The Rain Moves And Enters The Dream Pools And Diamonds Are Days With Fire

Welcome to episode of This Angry Silence! This is a no-bullshit music podcast. You won't hear me drone on about how amazing my music tastes, all you will hear is cool songs from my computer...if you don't like a song choice let me know and I'll plan future shows accordingly.

This episode is a mix of acoustic tracks, at paulos suggestion and I'm glad he did. And of course five minutes after I was done I thought of more stuff, but lord knows there will always be more episodes.

Jamie is an average weezer b-side, actually now that I think about it most of their b-sides are terrible (besides mykel and carli) and this live version fuckin slams, complete with three part harmony. sunset rubdown is the solo project/band of spencer krug from wolf parade, this is from their latest, slightly disappointing album. jandek is a recluse from texas that is most know for anti-folk music, its all out of tune and depressing. this is a standout track by him, an unnamed vocalist (presumed to be eddie) gives one of the most desperate vocal performances in musical history...skip james can't touch this! the guitar is amazing too, it is just open stringed acoustic, played in the most harrowing fashion possible. everyone knows beck, this is a daniel johnston cover he recently did, one of his best works. czar tara choy vii is the musical duo of my friends zack and vic, google their name to download a show i recorded of them. i saw alan and sir richard bishop live, it was amazing and they played bitter cold country side, one of my favorite SCG songs. Daniel johnston has bipolar and is really awkward, this is a standout track by him. bright eyes is all emo, i know but they used to be great, this is from fevers and mirrors. gogol bordello have been known to be overhyped but they have made some standout tracks. handsome furs is some guy dan from wolf parade and his wife, the last track of their only cd is a nice acoustic number. the last track is a terribly obvious avant-garde joke.

Episode 8: Don't Waste Your Precious Breath Explaining That You Are Worthwile

Welcome to episode 8 of This Angry Silence! This is a no-bullshit music podcast. You won't hear me drone on about how amazing my music tastes, all you will hear is cool songs from my computer...if you don't like a song choice let me know and I'll plan future shows accordingly.

This episode is a random mix of tracks, a bit haphazard but that's how it goes.

44:55

The Hidden Cameras started as one gay dude, playing appropriately genre'd "gay church folk music." This song is amazing, I think its about a preacher raping a kid, and I put it on as many mixtapes as possible, cause it doesnt sound like WASP or some shit, its just a nice pop song. Funeral by Arcade Fire is a pretty good cd but I don't know if anything tops the first track on it. The Fiery Furnaces are a great brother sister duo from england, this won't be the last song I play by them for sure. The boomtown rats are dearly loved by my friends, I haven't given them much of a listen but this song caught my ear. swell are some random indie band, this is from a cd by them, it has some great lead guitar. wire are classic uk post-punk-before-there-was-post-punk or whatever...joe strummer did a fantastic album before he died, this is a track from it. pavement are a classic, somewhat overlooked 90's band, this is just a random track I like by them, there are so many more. sun city girls are a really good band i like, this is a nice improvisation they did on their cd "high asia". I only wish I could think of so many sonic ideas. Joanna Newsom released a great cd called Ys. It finishes with the track Cosmia. It is great on that album, but this track from her live album "ys street band" far tops it, and is almost twice as long too!
