i found this cassette for $2 at Used Kids Records in columbus, OH yesterday when i was shopping there during record store day. i popped it in my tape deck and it's like, really poorly recorded sort of noise rock. it's completely unmarked, fabric slipcase and the shell of the actual cassette is spray painted silver. no insert or anything. does anyone have any idea what this is? i can rip it later today if anyone has any interest in it.

probably some dad's old college band
maybe, but it sort of seems more recent to me. used kids is like the biggest record store here so a lot of local artists/bands drop their stuff off there... a lot of their traffic are like college aged kids or people newer to the hobby, generally
if you're lucky it might show up on shazam but I doubt it. It could also be a recording of a concert.
i don't think it's a recording of a concert because at the very beginning of the tape there seems to be a sample of like a home movie or something? there are kids talking and stuff
upload naw
ill get to work on ripping it
judging by the artwork (looks like a limited edition tape), this one was probably released in the mid or late 00s.
>poorly recorded sort of noise rock
lots of bands in said years made extremely lo-fi/murkier psych noise rock, so this one was probably released on a now defunct tape label
>It could also be a recording of a concert.
nevermind, rewound the tape to start it over so i could figure out how loud i should rip it and it's definitely a recording of a concert, there are people cheering right before they start playing
it's sounds more like post-hardcore than anything really psychedelic, like it's more akin to some 90s emo shit i think, the recording quality is just terrible.
do they say the name of their band? Maybe you can decipher the lyrics and google it.
>90s emo
well now i'm intrigued, but yeah i still think the tape was released around those years
the lyrics are mostly screamed out unintelligibly or barely audible under the instrumental. i am getting started ripping it right now. shazam'ing it does nothing
is it good? i wanna listen now
RIP IT
thanks for ripping it
took a bit of finnicking with it but it's now ripping, everybody. should probably be all ready in about 45 minutes. the a-side doesn't occupy the whole thing but i'm gonna try to split the tracks up & all.
no problem
cool, thanks man
nice
alright boys, done ripping. splitting up the tracks right now
What did you use to RIP it?
direct line from my tape deck into audacity
it coming?
yea, sorry for the delay but should be ready soon.
be ready soon
uploading it to mega now. total runtime is about 27 minutes... there are about 3 minutes i didn't include in the rip, but it's just the guy with the tape recorder walking around the venue i'm pretty sure
> living in Ohio
My condolences
Cool thread OP.
I'm waiting for the mega.
Hyped to hear this. Thanks user in advance.
at least is not baltimore, which is a complete shithole
HURRYU
>HURRY
HURRY
>HURRY
wasn't sure what to title it, so:
>mysterious band - untitled
mega.nz
cover art is cropped from the fabric slipcase
virus dont download anyone
>Detected File Types: Trojan.Gen
wtf op
put it on youtube or something.
why?
VIRUS
OP IS A FAGGOT
It's wav files and a jpg yeah assholes
cause i dont feel like downloading it.
rip it to bandcamp or youtube or some shit
i wanna hear
it doesn't have virus wtf yuo on sounds like absolute shit tho
Holy shit, I just finished downloading and thank god kaspersky saved me. EVERYONE DO NOT DOWNLOAD. IT IS A VIRUS.
How did you even disguise the jpg like that??
i actually downloaded it and can confirm that it is NOT a virus. just some awesome noiserockcore
alright i havent downloaded it yet but its pretty obvious that op is samefagging hard here
stop shilling its obviously suspicious
Thank you OP for sharing this. The end of the 13 minute track is pretty rad.
no problem buddy
I'm a little spooked, would you mind uploading one to soundcloud or youtube?
what genre is this
Fuck off you lame ass. Why would you want to discourage someone from sharing rare and interesting tunes?
Jesus christ even if it was (which it fucking isn't) nothing would happen until you actually open it. Download it and inspect it and you'll realize there is no problem.
noiserock
respect brother
OP here, here is track one on vocaroo. i had to convert it to .ogg to post it up on vocaroo, but it's not like it really matters too much given how poor the original recording is
vocaroo.com
im not sure myself? i would say noise rock but i dont know how well that would fit it if it were not recorded so poorly
thanks user
thank god finally a cool post on this board
I just listened to the whole thing and I'd agree it's noise rock, though it could be some depraved genre of metal, its hard to tell. There's an underlying high frequency pitch playing throughout which is realy fucking annoying as well
Doldrums untitled tape from VHF records.
It really pisses me off when people pull shit like that. Yea Forums can no doubt be a cesspool a lot of times but sharing tunes like this and getting recc's is one thing that I've always admired and is what keeps me around.
>tfw you'll never go to a show at Allie and Sherry's house
don't think this is them? i know the band you're talking about, the one that were on kranky for a bit, but i don't see that anywhere on discogs or anything.
hahaha, i'm not really too surprised it happened, it's a common thing on this site in general but it would be annoying if it offput anyone from listening to it. glad someone appreciated me sharing the tape
is there any more information about it, OP? i'm cataloguing it on rym right now.
complete bullshit lol
nope. not an insert or anything in it. it's probably from a band in columbus or released on a label from columbus given it was at used kids, but other than that, there's really nothing to go off of.
Put it on discogs instead.
It sounds like he says at the beginning, "We're white album." I only heard the first track but it sounds more like hardcore punk to me, like a more agressive angry samoans.
>that godspeed demo tape will never be unearthed :(
maybe. if they are called White Album, there's nothing about them online... the discogs page for the only band that comes up under that name are danish and released music on warner bros., so i doubt that's them.
>"We're white album."
Definitely sounds like he says that at the end of the final track
I tried looking them up, there used to be a website that cataloged tons of American punk bands but I can't remember the name. It was all html and the last time I used it was like 2006. Mostly older stuff but you never know. You could look up bands and labels by region.
listening to it right now. sounds like it's a vhs recording that was later dubbed into a cassette tape. this probably was recorded in the mid 90s. wonder if there's a discogs entry for this one.
listening now, this is pretty cool, i think hardcore/punk is a bit description desu, although it definitely sounds like it has noise influence, not sure how much is the band noise or the recording itself, nonetheless enjoyable, thanks OP
>a 16 year old is the only rating
MODS
