Ultra Mega Name Those Songs Game 50+ Songs No Order!!!
 
For those new to the game, here's how it works:
1. Download the mp3 here
2. Listen to it
3. Every song you recognise, post here, including artist and song name
And this time, you don't have to do any order. Just name every song you recognise. I made this knowing that only 90% of the songs will be identified. The prize is the glory of being the biggest music nerd.

is there an A.R.E. weapons song inside this thing?

ZEROpumpkins 02.06.2008 06:44 AM

no.

nicfit 02.06.2008 06:51 AM

ha ha ok. I recognized a bunch of stuff, I'll post the list of the songs I know soon.

nicfit 02.06.2008 07:28 AM

beck - strange apparition
radiohead - national anthem
battles - snare hangar
sonic youth - sweet shine
moby + gwen stefani - southside
violent femmes - add it up
slint - nosferatu man
chemical brothers - hey boy hey girl
massive attack - blue lines
thurston moore - psychic hearts
the ramones - commando

bah, I got just the more obvious covered.
a few more can't remember the titles, but I don't wanna do researches coz it's funnier to see what people recognize.

SYRFox 02.06.2008 09:07 AM

Adding to those nicfit has found:

The Prodigy - Break & Enter

There's also a Jesus & Mary Chain song off Psychocandy, I think it's Never Understand but I'm not sure, also a Pixies song, I think it's Rock Music. I think I also heard at least one Aphex Twin song, a Björk (or Sugarcubes) one, and a really short Sunn O))) snippet

Torn Curtain 02.06.2008 09:45 AM

Not mentionned by Nicfit:
Björk - Come to me
Nirvana - Aero zeppelin
Portishead - Wandering star
Pixies - Something against you
Metallica - Leper Messiah
AC/DC - Hell's bells
Radiohead - Life in a Glasshouse

There is Pearl Jam and REM for sure but I can't find the titles.

I think there might also be Shellac (or Big Black) and Flaming Lips.

Fantomas - Page who knows

REALLY RECOGNIZABLE SONG AT LIKE 1:39 WHAT IS THIS UGHHH!!!!
Arab Strap - Gentleman I think? Or is it Be Sweet?

Primus - something haha
Big Black - Fish Fry
Jesus Lizard - something! Fuck!
Weezer - Say It Ain't So

Are there two bjork songs?

Ohhh this one is pretty damn challenging, mainly the electronic stuff, and obviously ther'es a few things I recognize but can't put my finger on a title/band.. I'll listen again later and see if I can piece together any more stuff...

Good work, I love these!!

I praise the time you guys must have on your hands.

Norma J 02.07.2008 01:04 AM

Then you must be on alot too, Sway, considering you follow me around the board pulling my hair.

Norma J 02.07.2008 01:07 AM

Contrary to your ego, I try to avoid your posts as much as possible.

The End.

Now go smoke a cigar.

ZEROpumpkins 02.07.2008 01:10 AM

It's like a 3 minutes track, eh, not 50 full songs. no need for much free time to give a listen and type a list.

atsonicpark 02.07.2008 10:18 AM

Oh fuck, I had Arab Strap on my mind, I guess, instead of not Afghan Whigs .

I actually OWN gentleman too...

ZEROpumpkins 02.08.2008 02:17 AM

I had to wiki Arab Strap. Not cool, man.

ArthurDoyleHandCream 02.08.2008 06:03 AM

That all went way too fast more my liking, but I'll add Deeper into Movies - Yo La Tengo and Racist - Frenzal Rhomb onto the list.

ZEROpumpkins 02.08.2008 06:27 AM

Both correct.
