Oh hey, this is alive. I figured you gave up on these after neoGBS started. E-mail: juptoru at hotmail.com Country: USA How many partners you want: 3 International: No Willing to review: Yes. I can't promise detailed reviews, but there'll be reviews of some sort. Mailing list: Sure Nition posted:Axleblaze, it won't get the same level of traffic as GBS, but I wonder if the CD swap might work better in the Music forum these days. You'd at least avoid all this "hilarious" shitposting.

I got my mix from BrendianaJones. Exactly one song I already had, lots of artists I've heard of but never listened to. Promising!

Finally getting off my lazy rear end and doing brief reviews of BrendianaJones' mix. It's mostly rock music, which is a pretty hit-or-miss genre for me. It just hits the "everything sounds the same to me" spot unless I really like it or really hate it. *s mark my favorites. 1. Raury - Devil's Whisper*: Like the verses, dig the instrumentals, wish someone else was singing the chorus. Overall I like it. Probably the most distinctive song on the mix. 2. ...And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead - Baudelaire: Solid song. Nothing I'd go out of my way to listen to, but not something I'd skip if it came up on shuffle. 3. Lincoln Durham - Beautifully Sewn, Violently Torn: Not actively bad, but I'm not really into it either. I like the minimalism of the less-instrumentated parts a lot better than the (relatively) guitar-heavy choruses. 4. Dead Vampires - City of Vampires*: Rated  /10. 5. The Hold Steady - Cattle And The Creeping Things: Meh. I get the gimmick it's going for, but it doesn't really work for me. 6. Shackled Mule - Ain't Got A Prayer: This song really needs something. More distinctive guitar? Louder vocals? Whatever it needs, it's just not grabbing me at all. 7. fun. - Barlights*: The one song I already had! fun.'s pretty good, and I think this is one of their better songs off Aim & Ignite. 8. Th' Legendary Shack Shakers - Where's The Devil When You Need Him:  9. TV On The Radio - DLZ: See #2. 10. The Devil Makes Three - Stranger: This is just boring enough that I'm leaning towards dislike instead of simple apathy. At least it's a feeling? I'm trying really hard not to make all these just say "meh", but it's hard when there's nothing to say about the song. 11. Captain Beefheart - Sure 'Nuff 'N Yes I Do: Kinda catchy. A bit of a relief after the past few songs. 12. Firewater - Woke Up Down: See #2. Again. 13. Punch Brothers - Movement And Location*: Pretty good. The frantic instrumentals and slow vocals work pretty well. I really dig the instrumentals themselves, and I'll definitely have to check out more Punch Brothers if it's all like this. 14. O' Death - Bugs: Solid song. I like it. 15. The Secret Sisters - Rattle My Bones*: An actually good country song. Stop the presses! Really though, I like this. It hits all the right notes for me. 16. Jeffrey Foucault - I Left This Town: Pretty good. 17. The New Pornographers - The Laws Have Changed*:  Definitely more pop-rock than the rest of the mix. It's pretty great!18. House of Heroes - Code Name: Raven*: , bordering on cheesy. That's a good thing; I actually like cheesy.19. The Hollywood Vampires - Raise The Dead*: Probably my favorite song on here. Full of energy, completely owning the fact that it's over-the-top rock music. Everything I like to hear! 20. Mystery song*: Aaaand this wasn't on the tracklist. Googling the lyrics suggests this is Before the Devil Knows We're Dead by the Turnpike Troubadours. Pretty good! It's really refreshing to hear country that's not bro-country. 21. Murder By Death - I'm Comin' Home: Pretty good. Overshadowed by having 4 songs in a row I really liked before it, but good. 22: Josh Ritter - Mind's Eye: And wrapping it up with a song so generic I can't comment on it. Success? I honestly wasn't expecting as many favorites as I had. The middle part of the mix drug on a bit, but the end was great. Overall, I'm a fan.
