On Friday, the weapon of choice was Six Finger Satellite. On Saturday, it was Shellac. I've got to say, it felt damn good to fight fire with fire. Listen to the Shellac song and try to imagine some of this on top of some salsa! My favorite part is the last 35 seconds when Albini and the boyz really kick it into gear. It is almost like they wrote this song for the sole purpose of arming me against my neighbors.
Now, if I could only get Shellac to come play a gig in my apartment and convince them to place their amps facedown on the floor.
I wonder what I'll end up playing tomorrow to combat their music. Any suggestions?

Mr. Bad Ass- I think you should play the worst song ever written
"It's Raining Men"
Todd Trainer is a fucking drum genius. You should play that one Shellac song, off a more recent one ... has the line "Kill it, fucking kill it/ Just kill it, fucking kill it."
How about Caspar Brotzmann Massacre, Mogwai, or any Thurston Moore side project?
We had a similar problem with the people across the air shaft playing Belle and Sebastian every Friday. Although maybe not so similar because they were hot and walked around naked all the time.
debbie, you forgot about the fact that this is something we'll be listening to also! no way is that song going to be ever played in our house.
Youthlarge's proviso not withstanding, I suggest Margarita Pracatan.
She's Cuban, you know.
Hey Dan,
Have you ever tried to get this guy up to your apartment while his music was playing? Do you think if he actually heard and saw what was going on in your place while his music blared that it would even phase him?
I've never lived in an apartment or town home where I didn't have these kinds of problems occasionally - which you can deal with and acknowledge that you occasionally do the same, but jeezsh, I can't imagine the torture these guys are putting you through on a very regular.
what a sucky situation.
okay
Didn't think of that Youthlarge.
Let's think of a song that you guys would love but he would hate. Preferably in spanish hmm?
How about something from The Clash
"Should I stay or should I go? Should I go or should I stay? There's some spanish in that one
reigning sound- too much guitar proved to be nice. the throbbing bass coming from downstairs actually enhanced it.
bill, they wouldn't give a fuck. we did invite him into listen last time. he didn't come in. if the conversation with him was any indication, any sort of logic would be lost on him.
Didn't someone once drive his neighbor to suicide by playing Whitney Houston's version of "I Will Always Love You" on repeat for ten days straight or something?
dn
i think that's what they did to drive Noriega out of the Vatican embassy he was holed up in back in Panama.
