Fog

[Fellalady]

I don't have the ability to downlaod MP3's, but if I did I would definately track down this band. (I am getting my very own brand new second hand computer at the end of the month so things are gonna change).

I have pasted a thread from the 65DOS website to show you what caught my attention. Thought you might be interested. Please forgive me if you've already heard him.

i'm afraid i'm going to become a bit of an evangelist about this band. The gig the other night was not far off being a life-changing musical experience in places and everything I've heard thus far impresses me more than geetar based music has since the good old Pavement and Pixies days.

Nice, his voice reminds me of Thom Yorke for some reason but it's got some spice. I read the title as Frog MP3 and thought you'd turned into some sort of sick Jamster pimp. I was readying some e-abuse.

Actually, carrying on the Thom Yorke thing, bits of this do sound like it could have been on Kid A.

the album is superb, though nothing at all like pavement. not really. more radiohead, if anything.

on that tip, the malkmus album is also very great. finally he is back on form, and not a moment too soon.

hurrah.

Oooh, a chance to make my first post

Fog's really, really great. He's done a couple of other things which are both very cool. Oh, and Fog is just one guy, Andrew Broder. I think he's released three albums as Fog; a self titled, Ether Teeth, and 10th Avenue Freakout (out soon folks). If you want the albums sending to you via yousendit or something, I'd be happy to oblige.

He was turntabilist (spelling?) in a band called Lateduster, who released an album called Easy Pieces last year or the year before, I think. Kinda mellow, jazzy postrock, very interesting mixture of samples, guitars and funky drumming.

He also worked with Why? (anticon rapper, cLOUDDEAD) on a project called Hymie's Basement, which is pretty interesting. It reminds me a fair bit of Why?'s solo stuff, but less willfully difficult. Track it down, the first track is a monster.

And hi

[SCL]

Welcome supersheep, sugar in yours?!

[Monpot]

Woo the Supersheep has landed. Everyone, get on Soulseek! Not only did he invent the DiS room, he also has every song in the world ever!

[Dill]

Hi, this is Dill, I followed supersheep's example and joined the forum. I'm a new person on the DiS soulseek chat room, but I've hardly been involved in the actual DiS at all.

So, hi.

[Monpot]

Dill is equally as nice as Supersheep, everyone say "hello Dill"

HELLO!

[SCL]

Hello Dill!!!

Gives Dill cuppa tea too....


mmmmm [glow=red,2,300]tasty[/glow]

Monpot where's the pancakes?

[Monpot]

they're round my friend Shane's house.

My friend Shane has the best house. He also has a pricktease housmate who waltzes around wearing tiny shorts. Ahhh it's a great place is Shane's house.

[Dill]

That's all well and good but ...

NOT ENOUGH TEA. I love tea.

[Monpot]

Shane's pricktease housemate makes nice tea...

[SuperSheep]

SCL: just the one sugar, I value the enamel on my teeth.

Pricktease is such a fabulous word. It's almost cromulent.

And greetings also to Dill and to all.

[Monpot]

heheh!

Embiggens is a perfectly cromulent word!

[Wiggles]

My sentimonies exactly!

Hilo Dilllllll

[Fellalady]

Hello Supersheep and Dill. I am going to join Soulseek just as soon as I can.

Supersheep, I'd love the Fog albums sending to me via yousendit or something. In a couple of weeks time would be good, when my computer is up and running.

Thank you for the info, it all sounds very interesting.
