Since none of you know us on a personal level you probably don’t care what we listen to. I don’t really give a fuck what y’all listen to, but since this is a learning environment, I’m gonna learns ya. The object of these posts is to open up your narrow minds to new music. If you already know these songs then good for you, you can hang with us. But for those who don’t, click on the links below and let your mind explode with aural passion.
To be honest the only reason I am doing this is because Captain Flintheart and Captain Polish did this, so why the hell can’t I?
Read, click link, listen, like/dislike, open downloading program, type in songs, click search, download illegally then listen at deafening levels:
- The Mars Volta – “Goliath” The Bedlam in Goliath
Kind of makes you want to drive/run/eat extremely fast.
- Flatfoot 56 – “Brotherhood” Knuckles Up
If your Irish like me, you should hopefully like this. If you like destruction like me, then you will like this. Bagpipes anyone?
- Bob Marley & The Wailers – “Trenchtown Rock” Live at the Roxy
I love reggae and Mr. Nesta Marley is one of my faves. This is his best rendition of Trenchtown Rock.
- Dispatch – “Open Up” Who Are We Living For?
A very good, relaxing song. What’s it feel like to know your gonna die?
- Flogging Molly – “What Made Milwaukee Famous…” Alive Behind The Green Door
If you are a drunk, this is your official theme song. No questions asked.
- Gang Starr – “DWYCK” Hard to Earn
I grew up listening to REAL hip-hop. This gem by Gang Starr should not be overlooked.
- Culture – “Lion Rock (Peel Session)” FabricLive 07
An excellent excellent reggae song. Go fetch yourself a rum drink or Red Stripe.
- Goldfinger – “Superman” Hang-Ups
If any of you played Tony Hawk Pro Skater religiously like this kid, you will surely remember this.
- Jimmy Cliff – “Vietnam” Jimmy Cliff
This reggae song is extremely catchy. You will find yourself wishing you were smoking a spliff with Mr. Cliff himself.
- Notorious BIG – “Gimme the Loot” Ready to Die
“I’m dangerous/Crazier than a bag of fucking angel dust/When I bust my gat motherfuckers take dirt naps/I’m all that and a dime sack/where the paper at?” Nuff said.
Check some of these out. It might give you something new to listen to. Also, if you’re into something good, send it along. We’ll post a reader-supported iPod list if we receive enough entries like them.
