More free music! IAV2.0 just released!
Current mood:  aroused
Category: Music
I know this was just posted, but I've fiddled around with this thing and there's a new updated release. I went it and edited all the song files so that the volume was more even across the board, cut out silence at the beginning & end of some tracks, and played with some of the volumes in the songs a little. I also updated the included booklet including the cover, and added an html readme file with links to all the bands' websites. I think it's a slightly better overall product now. Best part is, you can get it right from aixelsyd.com, no upload services or popups. Just click the pic to get it:

What's the deal with the name of the comp. & the paper clips?
Well, there's a word filter in the forum that alters most references to the male genetalia to "paper clip". Why? I don't remember why it all started, but now it's a running joke. Another running joke is to utter "It's about violence!" in response to... well, anything. Why? Well, read on:
MisfitsCentral.com wrote: We Are 138 Based on George Lucas's 1971 science fiction film "THX-1138," this song reflects the anonymity attached to living with a number for a name in a 25th century police state. On July 1, 1996 Bobby Steele e-mailed the following to the Misfits Bible:
"We used to have badges with a picture of a robot with 138 on his forehead. I wonder if Jerry has one, or remembers it... He [Glenn] used to tell us that if someone asked what it meant, we should just laugh, and in a mocking tone say "What? You don't know?" and sound real snobby when you say it. Make them feel like every idiot but YOU knows what it means."
Jerry Only told a similar story to a fan after a show on July 27, 1996:
"'138' is like people being treated as androids where you have a number instead of a name, so it's like the human number would be a 138... We had buttons made once, they were robots with '138' that looked like half human android kinda things, long before your Terminator or stuff like that."
Glenn Danzig summarized it in a Twec.Com interview on January 27, 2000:
"They didn't write it, and they don't know what the fuck it's about. It's about violence."
Where did this alll get started, & how do I learn more?
Where do I get it again?

Famous Anuses? DETUNED (BLKRADIO.NET) INTERVIEW AUDIO IS UP!
Current mood:  validated
Category: Music
 Famous Anuses? We've gotten some press lately. Crazy! Check it all out some time...
Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to talk to us, listen to us, & write about us ! DETUNED INTERVIEW AUDIO IS UP! Thanks to Smalley who broke through some technical difficulties to provide us with the audio of our night of debauchery on his debut show! I made up a lil' zip file and tossed it up here. Click here to download & listen! (To unzip the archive, I reccomend 7-Zip, but WinZip & WinRAR are OK too, I guess.) Yeah, we know, it's a big-ass file, but it's also a lot of audio, some "album art", and an html file. 
Click the image above to download audio (in a *.zip file) from the interview!

"Sorority holds benefit concert for the hungry" from IUP’s The Penn - Sean Bracken/Staff Writer

Sorority holds benefit concert for the hungry
Sean Bracken/Staff Writer
Issue date: 4/11/08
Section: News
Local musicians gathered Sunday in the HUB to help raise money to feed the hungry.
The concert, which is performed annually, was sponsored by Gamma Sigma Sigma, a national sorority that helps with many causes, including feeding the poor and homeless as well as trying to help fight incurable diseases.
More specifically, Sunday's concert benefited the Pathway Homeless Shelter in Blacklick, which GSS member Trista Lookabaugh said was randomly chosen, as is typically done every year.
Lookabaugh explained that they wanted to have a benefit that was fun as well as one that would raise money for a good cause.
Musical performers included Ruckus and the Trousers, The Hormones, August, Neutrulize and Gasoline Dion performed to raise money for the charity.
"It was cool to play for charity," said Eric Aixelsyd of Gasoline Dion. He went on to say that he also liked meeting other bands and playing music for a good cause.
Attendance at this concert was rather light for this event, but Lookabaugh acknowledged that there was another event on campus that caused a time conflict.
Lookabaugh also said they had a hard time selling tickets for this event, but that this year's concert improved from last year's concert.
The concert started off with Ruckus and the Trousers, which is a group that plays a softer brand of rock music. Then the harder stuff came with Gasoline Dion and the Hormones, which are punk rock groups. Then show went into alternative rock with Neutralize, before the concert was finished with August, a metal group.
Despite the low attendance, the audience was really involved. A lot of them were standing near the stage and clapped along to the beat of the music. The rock groups also encouraged a lot of audience participation.
The crowd might have been small, but it was a vocal crowd when it came time to cheer and give their applauses to the musical acts performing.
The estimated total of money the organization thought they would raise this year was roughly $300 dollars, although they had a goal of nearly $1,000, Lookabaugh said.
However, she also that they raised more money than they did last year.
"I think it will get better each year," Lookabaugh said.
Well, they reversed the order of August & NeuTruLize, but all in all a nice lil' write-up.

"Here’s a short review I’ve writen:" - from Sam Scumaci
Current mood:  rockin
Category: Music
Here's a review of Loading Noise... by Chicago Underground Techno Industrial hit-maker, Sam Scumaci! Here's a short review I've writen: Pittsburgh's Gasoline Dion is what I call real punk rock! These guys are not only good at their instruments and vocals, but have the best sense of humor which is missing from most bands of today. Loading Noise is one of those albums you can listen to from beginning to end. At times, I think I'm listening to a band from the 80s or early 90s, but its a band of the 2000s man! Definately one of my favorite bands at the moment. I recommend it for true punk rockers or anyone who has a great taste in music. Favorite tracks: Two of a Kind, She Shits in Stereo (Special Note: Why is this not on the radio or MTV!), Song by A Dead Guy, Political Song, and Bitch Pants Opera. 10/10
