i found the tracklist and a photo of a mixtape i made for a buddy of mine a couple years ago (before i moved away). i dunno why i saved it in the first place, but since i did, i figured i'd post it. anyway, i wasn't super close to the kid and the mix reflects that (it's allllll over the place, but that's part of the fun with mixtapes); i didn't know what music he liked exactly... but i knew he was an anarchist, i knew he liked political hardcore, punk, indie, etc... but he really liked the tape, so it's all good.

Track Description:
I'm only going to say this once, but it's from the heart: it really upsets me that there aren't more mixes with Atari Teenage Riot. German Anarchist/Anti-fascists yelling about revolution over heavily distorted guitar samples and drum n'bass/gabber beats.... What more could you want? My buddy especially loved this track.

Track 1 from Easter Sunday Hangover EP
Length: 00:04:44 Year: 2005 |
|
|
Track Description:
Johnny Hobo and the Freight Trains were a bitchin' folk-punk (guitar, harmonica, trumpet, washtub bass, a guy banging on a bicycle drum kit and lots of yelling) group from Brattleboro, Vermont that existed from 2004-2007. This track was possibly their most popular (next to "D.I.Y. Orgasms") because it was a self-deprecating anarchist anthem about how being hungover, strung-out, nic-fitting, broke and broken hearted sucks, but there are greater goals: "we aren't revolutionaries/but we ARE the revolution!"

Track Description:
Brilliant band, brilliant album--definitely one of my top 10 of all time. I remember when I first heard this track, I absolutely fell in love with it, not only for the music (intense hardcore with jazz samples), but for the lyrics: "Is it our duty to die for governments & for gods? Is it our privilege to slave for market & for industry? Is it our right to follow laws, set to scare and to oppress? Is it a gift to stay in line and will it take away the blame?" SHOW LESS

The Joy Division/My Bloody Valentine transition is ace! I had forgotten about SParklehorse. I really liked that single they had out, what was it? 'Maria's Tiny Hands' I think, something like that.
