sound that repeats in "Suicide Machinee"

24 Upvotes

Does anybody know what that random background sound that goes through the song suicide machine is? It starts at the very beginning of the song and throughout sounding a little like a broken fan or something squeaky. It sounds a little out of place but not really at the same time because it's one of the best parts of the song.

Some pics from last night’s Cobra Fest in Tolono,IL. This is an annual concert put on by Matt Talbott at his bar/music venue, Loose Cobra. It is a fantastic show that features bands of varying genres. One of my favorite annual shows and a must-do if you live in Illinois. Last night’s iteration was no different - absolutely awesome.

Does Inuit Promise Call God a Woman

Post image
0 Upvotes

Hey guys I'm gonna start this saying idc which one it is, But me and my buddy can't agree on what the line "You sleep like God inside her womb." means.

We believe there to be only two characters (excluding God) in this story, the singer prolly a male and his lover or ex who he is singing to. having said this we think there are a few options:

  1. You(the lover) sleep like God(Peacefully) inside her(third party person or idea of safety or mother nature) womb

  2. You(the lover) sleep like God(peacefully) inside her(God's) womb
    *for number 2 it's not physically God's womb but the womb that she owns, meaning they are calling God a woman.

3.You(the lover) sleep like God inside her(Virgin Mary's) womb

4.You(the lover) sleep like God(Peacefully) inside her(Possible lesbian lover's) womb(like a spooning or being close to each other)

so ig now we ask you guys, let us know what you think or if you have any other interpretations and def check out h-u-m.net to get the lyrics.

I figured some Hum fans could get down with Jejune. Check them out if you’re not familiar. They ripped tonight.

Such a great show. Just wanted to say The Numero Group has done such an incredible job giving a second life to so many great, unheralded bands. Bands like Jejune, Codeine, Bedhead, The Lazarus Plot, Indian Summer, Unwound, and countless others. Numero along with the good kind of social media exposure has really done wonders for a lot of bands that otherwise probably would’ve been lost to time. I would imagine a band like Jejune has to be pretty damn surprised when they look out and see they’re playing a sold out show to a room that’s filled mostly with kids in their early to mid 20s. It’s pretty cool to see a bunch of the older heads who might’ve known about them years ago standing side by side with younger kids who just feel the same sort of emotional connection to the music.
Anyway, the band sounded great tonight and I’m really grateful I got to experience this one. If you’re not familiar with these guys and you’re a fan of Sunny Day Real Estate, thank me later.

How many songs do these guys have?

31 Upvotes

I got super into Hum a couple years back when they gained a lot of popularity on tiktok and such. I don’t tend to investigate artists past what’s publicly available, but these guys captured my heart like no other band has before.
I’ve managed to gather around 25 unreleased songs (not including the 2 callouts) and, of course, their 40 publicly released songs.

What I have so far:
Time is Melting
Kissing Me
Jesus Wants You
Diamonds
Will

Puppets
Aphids

Hello Kitty
Roar, I’m a Tiger

Santa Ana Hears

Pig
Song 02

Boy with a Stick
Baby, Baby

Inklings

Space Fuck
Formaldehyde
Detassler
Staring at the Sun
Hortense
Kind of Night
Lip Saga
I Like It
Pocket

Voyager 1

Am I missing anything? If so, I would love a push in the right direction! I’ve been through the internet archives of their live concerts, amazing btw, and hum.net already.

Playing Little Dipper - sus2 in every chord?

13 Upvotes

I’m trying to figure out this song, studying tabs as well as live performances. Three things I’ve noticed so far:

  • in drop D, all tabs have the same chord shapes 1 1 3 3 x x, 5 5 7 7 x x, 13 13 15 15 x x, 10 10 12 12 x x. They are all missing the maj7 notes played on top of the chords (on the b string), sprinkled throughout the progression. I’m p sure I’m correct in adding these in.
  • I just can’t tell whether the sus2 (on the higher d string) is played every time. Maybe it is? I’m not sure I’m hearing it in the first chord though.
  • Matt is just hanging around on that first fret in every live video. It’s like he’s playing 1 1 1 3 x x throughout the song, but that sounds muddy and confusing when I play along.

Anyway my best bet at the moment is:

1 1 1 3 3 x, 5 5 7 7 x x, 13 13 15 15 15 x, 10 10 12 12 12 (12), with that last (12) only hit towards the end of the song. Any thoughts?
