Making negative statements about my Top 50: The revision Pt. 1 50-25
Ago 11 2009, 20h44 por manadragon
Yep, I am bored enough to do this, hope you're all bored enough to read it. I will come up for some less than positive statements about my top artists, because hey, while I love them all, they are far from perfect.
50.Nevermore - This is a really solid band, but I must say that at times they sound a bit too much alike from a song to song basis, and some of their lyrics are dull.
49.Talib Kweli - A great rap artist who unlike others in my top, is a superb lyricist. My main beef with him would be that as he released more albums, his quality dropped a bit. I was not a huge fan of his previous effort.
48.浜渦正志 - Or Masashi Hamauzu for those who cannot read that. A good enough composer, though sometimes his work is dull and a bit monotonous.
47.Faith No More - As with others, the Mike Patton era was mostly great, though their big hits were some of their worst. Epic is really not that good, and is highly overrated. And for every good song they have, I can point out one that is bad.
46.Mos Def - Like Talib Kweli, Mos lives his rap life through his lyrics, when they are on point, he is one of the best in the game, His album The New Danger was pretty weak save for a couple songs, but he made up for it with his newest effort The Ecstatic.
45.Foo Fighters - This is a band whose Discopgraphy is littered with classic songs, average songs, and songs that should never be heard by anyone. This band is maddening to me, they can release classics like
Everlong and then have an album that is almost purely garbage.
44.Rick Ross - This guy is almost a guilty pleasure for me, he is terrible with lyrics, cannot rhyme well, all he has really is great production work and a passable flow. That being said, he has some of the catchiest rap music out now.
43.崎元仁 - Hitoshi Sakimoto is one of my favorite VGM composers, and he has a unique style that no many can emulate, that being said, like many others in this field, he has some really terrible tracks as well.
42.UGK - I think the most negative thing is that they are no longer in existence, damn you Pimp C for dying! They were probably one of the best rap duos ever, and had a big amount of staying power, and still remained relatively unknown for years. An actual gripe would be, as with most southern rap, the lyrics aren't exactly mindblowing, but Bun B and Pimp C had a chemistry that worked great.
41.Kanye West - This one is easy. I like Kanye musically, but if his ego were any bigger he would be drowning is a pool full of smug.
40.Moonsorrow - Great metal band, known for their long epic songs, and that is the main complaint; I like long tracks, but this band has way too many. Not saying I am ADD, but I really only listen to them when I have the time to fully enjoy them.
39.DMX - As much as it may be his lifelong dream, man, you are not, nor ever will be a dog, its amusing at times, but this man has a growl or bark in practically every song. Or at least a dog reference.
38.Doves - Great band, but much like my older comments on this group, the singer is not very good, but he manages to make his lame singing just work with this band, I dunno how he does it.
37.King Crimson - Classic band that progressively got more dull and pretentious. I respect their early albums, but their more recent ones have been a yawn fest.
36.Eminem - As a whole, he is a genre-changing rapper. He has some classic works to his name, but for every Till' I Collapse is a
Without Me.
35.Symphony X - Not a music aspect, but this may be one of the ugliest looking bands in existence. Besides that remark, they have a tendency to borrow their own previous riffs in other songs of theirs.
34.Metallica - ST. ANGER, how about some FRANTIC TIC TIC TIC TOC, And Lars Ulrich is a Douchehelmet.
33.Lil' Wayne - The man has a problem with rhyming the same words a lot, case in point in the Ludacris Track Last of a Dying Breed, he rhymed roses with roses, that's classic Wayne. And he seems to be going off the deep end recently, and is becoming wack as fuck. But his earlier stuff was brilliant.
32.梶浦由記 - Yuki Kajiura has the following thought process. "I like violins! I know, lets put them into every song I ever make! That's sure to be exciting."
31.Canaan - Very good but obscure band. They have a few songs that sound too much alike, and tend to have a few filler tracks per album that are nothing more than dull ambient tracks.
30.Darkthrone - Brilliant in their early and mid discography works, but then became tiresome and monotonous. Haven't put out a great album in years.
29.Pain of Salvation - Scarsick sucked, that the only flaw in their music to me.
28.Portishead - They have only put out 3 albums. But seriously, they are really great. I suppose Beth Gibbons has had some lackluster vocal performances in a couple of songs.
27.Staind - I wasn't even aware they were this high on my list. How embarrassing. I suppose they are good if you are in an angsty mood, and feel like listening to some post-grunge honestly I don't think they are as bad as everyone makes them out to be.
26.Linkin Park - Uhh, yeah the are somehow at 26. I blame it on me being an overly angst filled fuck when I am drunk, and that is where most of these plays are from, being drunk. I do honestly enjoy some songs, but I feel like I am 16 when I listen to them, oh woe is me.
25.Poets of the Fall - I really do love this group, I I had to pick a flaw, I would say that they have fallen off a bit with each album release. I wouldn't say they have put out a bad album yet, but they are releasing more tracks that are forgettable.
Expect #24-1 pretty soon. -
LJB July mixtape: Hey There's a Dog Over There!
Ago 7 2009, 22h54 por tom_dissonance
The ever-missed John Peel used to theorise that any record with birdsong on it would probably be automatically good. (The title track of Bridget St. John's Ask Me No Questions, which Peelie produced and released on his Dandelion label, even takes a break at the end for an interval of church bells and hand-picked birdsong clips from the BBC Archives).

i sort of feel the same about records with the sound of barking dogs on. i will pretty much always listen to a track that features a dog barking, even if it is completely gratuitous, silly or unrelated to the song. This holds true even if the dog is hamfistedly sampled (DMX), not even a real dog (Slim Gaillard), or even both at the same time (the truly egregious Woofers and Tweeters Ensemble). i'm still not quite sure why this is.
Anyway, July's mixtape is entitled Hey There's a Dog Over There!1 and each of the 20 tracks feature either real or simulated woofing. Weirdly, i've got enough of this sort of stuff to make another mixtape again of it, so i might drop that some time in the future.
Click the link at the bottom for the mixed version or hit up the blog for individual files.

1. M.I.A. – "Bamboo Banga" (from Kala, 2007)
Dog action? Some barking samples, most notably the confusingly sexy bit where she sings about "doggin' on the bonnet of your red Honda" (blimey) and a vicious-sounding snarl abruptly breaks the reverie.
2. Bilge Pump – "
Sling Yr Hook" (Let Me Breathe, 2002)
Dog action? Full-on free jazz barking solo from 01:42 to close.
3. Frank Zappa – "Hot Plate Heaven at the Green Hotel" (Broadway the Hard Way, 1988)
Dog action? In the form of Obvious Samples played as percussion on what is presumably some sort of early sampling keyboard, presumably by Bobby Martin, live in concert. Pretty silly.
4. Jane's Addiction – "
Been Caught Stealing" (Ritual de lo Habitual, 1990)
Dog action? Iconic. They open the tune and attempt to keep the beat over the first few bars, with varying success.
5. Black Sheep – "Similak Child" (A Wolf In Sheep's Clothing, 1991)
Dog action? Wins extra credit for actually interpolating the barking into the beat as a percussion instrument, as two dogs stage an enthusiastic bark-off.
6. De La Soul – "
Dog Eat Dog" (Stakes Is High, 1996)
Dog action? Freeform barking underpins chorus and parts of verses, emphasising cannibalistic nature of rap game.
7. The Mighty Underdogs – "
Doglude" (droppin' science fiction, 2008)
Dog action? Rhythmical, dense, layered - total dog win basically. Even a series of epic howls to conclude in proper style.
8. Slim Gaillard Trio – "SERENADE TO A POODLE" (1947-1951, 2002)
Dog action? Slim is evidently pissing himself all the way through this tune, possibly at the instigation of questionable dog impersonator Jim Hawthorne, whose overdone barking refrains turn frankly ridiculous by the end of the track. But in kind of a good way.
9. Le Tigre – "What's Yr Take On Cassavetes?" (Le Tigre, 1999)
Dog action? Dogs contribute jubilant barking coda to discussion of art cineaste reputation.
10. Tom Waits – "Buzz Fledderjohn" (Orphans: Brawlers, Bawlers & Bastards, 2006)
Dog action? Providing rough bluesy ambience to a tune that could well have been recorded in a barnyard.
11. Cassetteboy – "
Dogs Dogs Dogs Dogs Oh Yeah Dogs" (The Parker Tapes, 2002)
Dog action? Dog sample nirvana. "No cats here, of course..."
12. Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown – "
Alligator Eating Dog" (No Looking Back, 1992)
Dog action? Fearsome introductory growling totally misrepresents really rather jolly song.
13. Contrastate – "
Poodles In Practice Dress At The Battersea Dogs Opera" (Four Years In 30 Seconds : A Collection Of Music From Around The World, 2007)
Dog action? Fucking weird spoken word/noise action. Dogs saturate its 34 seconds. The second half of the parent album also features it (along with all the other tracks) played backwards. Damn, last.fm, you don't half dish out some fucked-up recommendations sometimes.
14. Cassetteboy – "
Yeah Duggan... Austin, TX" (Mick's Tape, 2005)
Dog action? Backing up The World's Whitest Rapper as he pays tribute to the dog in question.
15. Woofers & Tweeters Ensemble – "We Can Work It Out" (Beatle Barkers, 1983)
Dog action? Oh man, this whole record is made of really poor primitive sampling-keyboard arrangements of Beatles songs. "Guys, this is just RIDICULOUS, and totally disrespectful to the music of The Beatles. I mean WOW....jeez." comments one Heather. Well, i agree, but i think that's why it's so good. (Commonly misnamed as "Beatle Barkers"; that's actually the album title).
16. DMX – "
Stop Being Greedy" (It's Dark And Hell Is Hot, 1998)
Dog action? Maybe the single most prolific dog-sampler in music, it'd be remiss to skip him. Sometimes his sampler doesn't work so he just does the dog voices himself.
17. Man Parrish – "Hip Hop, Be-Bop (Don't Stop)" (12", 1982)
Dog action? Seminal throw-everything-at-the-wall-see-what-sticks '80s electro groundbreaker finds time for a snatch of pitch-shifted canine in the mid-section. Then promptly on to the next thing. Brill.
18. The Flaming Lips – "The Big Ol' Bug Is the New Baby Now" (Zaireeka, 1997)
Dog action? Gorgeous semi-spoken tribute to Stephen Drozd's dog (and Zaireeka closer) ends in an cacophonous eight-channel avalanche of barking (if you're doing it right).
19. The Orb – "Towers Of Dub" (U.F. Orb, 1992)
Dog action? Takes up all of side three of U.F. Orb. Man's best friend makes an early bid for glory as Kris Weston and Dr Alex dub the piss out of him.
19. Can – "
Aumgn" (Tago Mago, 1971)
Dog action? It's a prerequisite of making a groundbreaking, extended sample collage that a barking dog will be required at some point. This set that rule.
20. Wonder Dog – "Ruff Mix" (12", 1982)
Dog action? Wow. This is why everybody hates the '80s.
1 Inspired by an entirely throwaway line in an early episode of Friends. Janice asks who of the group have nearly slept with one another, and they all attempt to change the subject swiftly. "There's a dog out there!" was Joey's priceless effort. i've only just found the actual script just now, but i misremembered it as "Hey there's a dog over there!" for years, so that's yer title. Yeh, so maybe it was a Seinfeld rip-off, but there was still some great comedy writing on that show at times.
