Are you a fan of Joy Division? Then check these guys out. First time I heard them i was hooked.

Sounds like a combination of Joy Division/Sonic Youth/Velvet Underground.


Listen to this in the background while you're doing something else...wow

If the song doesn't load (or stops/starts) here is an alternate.

Something interesting happens if you put your mouse over the name of the song and right click the mouse button. Watch what happens when you click "Save target as".

I'm using IE.

Did you open it after you saved it?

Yes... It worked fine with FF. I was sort of expecting it not to after what you said. What do you get with IE?

with IE, after you click "save as target" a box pops up asking you if you would like to save the song. You can then just download the song.

The song was okay, I was a little turned off by the vocals, lyrics and canned psychadelic guitar. I can definitely hear some Velvet Underground influence but I'm not too convinced that it was executed well. I don't hear any Sonic Youth or Joy Division though.

You're just finding out about this? "Save Target As" can be very useful. I've grabbed a lot of music off the web doing that.

Not bad ch00nz. Listening to "The First Vietnamese War" right now. I agree, I hear some Joy Division Influences. Will definitely check them out some more. Thanks for the rec. We need more threads like this.
