Oliver Eaton - Living in the Jungle (1996) [FLAC] >Synthpop / Post-punk / Experimental Rock / Singer-Songwriter (yes, really) >Bizarre and experimental album where a middle aged Swiss man sings (in English, with a strong accent) about soul crushing modern life, casual alcoholism, loneliness, the emptiness of consumerism, and a desire to move into the wilderness.

For any Bungle or SC3 fans, this band is approved by Trey Spruance.
"In the torrent of "innovative" death/grind bands these days, it can be hard to find something that's actually heavy and lacks really annoying pretensions. Asterisk is one of those rare bands that varies what they do in order to pummel you, and for no other reason. Owing more sound-wise to the legendary, totally fucked, over-the-top maniacism of Switzerland's overlooked Fear of God than they do to the more current "innovative" sound of Berklee School of Music clowns trying to sound like Melt Banana, Asterisk has produced a masterpiece of 21st Century aggression. There's a little bit of compli-core, but it rarely sounds damningly contrived. No, any fan of ultra pummel shouldn't hesitate. Anyone with ears craving the end of the world can get a good fix with Asterisk."
Are you the same dude who uploaded their self-titled a while back? If so, a big thanks. I love this americana type of music. >youtube.com/watch?v=1ve9UUDdnrI I learned this version of the original from Mapache and sang/played this for my mom lel

Go ahead on post it. I already have it, but if they like all the Ukrainian stuff you posted, they would probably like it, too. Were you the one who posted all that Ukrainian stuff back in 2014 or 2017?
Robert Roberts
nah I didnt but I like that record a lot too. Too early to decide but my gut really feels like the new record is better. Something about the variety of songs. But yeah Aquellos is such a killer track. Got a feeling this band is gonna get big pretty soon.

thanks

v/a - Cхoвaйcя / Skhovaysia (tl. "Hidden") (1995) [MP3] >Ukrainian avant-folk, eclectic selection >Mysterious little release from a mysterious label that collected a bunch of mostly unique tracks from various names in the area at the time. Details on some of these artists are scant, but it does have some more famous artists like Svitlana Nianio and Kazma Kazma. Sample: youtube.com/watch?v=MExfaB-emH0 Download: mega.nz/#F!WionFACS!1493MWSkfegRun-0zLIv9w
Looking for these Even Oxen releases in FLAC because he deleted them: >s/t >New Living Translations of the New Testament >xmasep
I don't remember doing it in 2014 but I do vaguely remember dumping a bunch of stuff around 2017.
Meanlife - Bad Vibes In The Womb (2019) [320] >Indie Rock, Noise-pop, Canada >sounds like: Pet Sounds played by Pavement >'catchy guitar pop for depressed 27 year olds'
3RENSA - Another World (2020) [V0] >Hardcore Ambience
Third album by the Japanese electronic trio of Merzbow, ex-Supercar guitarist and Eureka Seven Ao composer Nyantora, and ambient musician Duenn. As with previous albums, it consist of three tracks, one mixed by each member. Room40: "deconstructed and re-arranged, a concréte style recreation of live performance, dipped in personal memory and reconstituted."
Alright. I apparently downloaded this back in 2016. I figured there wasn't multiple sharethread-using Ukrainian psychedelic folk anons.

But wait, there's more! This one's REALLY hard to come by.
Sheik Hi-Fi - Isn't May Dream - Sonic (1994) [MP3] >Industrial, noise rock, Ukrainian >Ultra-rare tape of clanking Soviet machinery and apocalyptic noise No sample, sorry Download: mega.nz/#F!7mQQUabb!00Ku18m-Vs0Vd17V2rqWLw
Mods were niggers during a sharethread earlier this week and I think they deleted the thread because of an uncensored Xiu Xiu cock on the OP. In any case, I am sharing a bunch of psych folk albums from this chart that I just made earlier this week.
Pat Kilroy- Light of Day [mp3 320] >Album released on the Elektra label lauded by many as the first acid folk release. Pre-dates Donovan's Sunshine Superman and likely influenced The Incredible String Band. Really great stuff and reminds me of Simon Finn. mega.nz/#F!1WxRwRRC!P1Us1c0MGSePvCg9GJchKg
Malachi- Holy Music [mp3 320] >Far-out drone-folk representing an early example of Western experimentation with Eastern musical forms in a non-pop/rock arrangement. The album is truly a spiritual journey. mega.nz/#F!Qb4VUDSA!cAaefCbwp2bz4JcL9rUrKw
John Fahey- The Great San Bernardino Birthday Party and Other Excursions >American primitivism that motivated many guitar and recording techniques of psychedelic albums in the 60s/70s mega.nz/#F!IG5llBSA!sDX-taEN60_YJ3YLMyWGmw
Denis- Denis [mp3 320] >Hippy folk created by a French dude named Denis while he was living in a hippy commune somewhere in France during the 60s/70s; a rare record, indeed. Reminds me slightly of Comus. mega.nz/#F!pbxnST7Q!-F0K2XoqhgDcEER-FRnW5w
Absolutely agree. It's one of my favorite albums in general and easily my favorite of Fahey's work.
Ton Vlasman- White Room With Disintegrating Walls [mp3 320] >Dutch hippy folk that reminds me of Bob Dylan of a more psychedelic persuasion. Quite good stuff- one song features some raga experimentation. mega.nz/#F!FCoBxDoS!dU_VBMIOgRVW_Irb0ufL8w
Alexander "Skip" Spence- Oar [mp3 320] >Burn-out folk solo album of Moby Grape co-founder. The album is a rare record indeed and is elevated further to legendary status given Skip's dealings with drugs and mental issues. mega.nz/#F!BDYFyKbS!bO2T8wt2OmyT_qxLejeQWQ
Bum Tickley- Lorca [mp3 320] >Yas Forums-core at this point. Psych/avant-jazz folk that Scaruffi likes. I liked it, too, before Scaruffi started getting memed. It is quite good. mega.nz/#F!pDJlzKhJ!O2-3A2BKfI4wdUX8CYnqPA
Robert Lester Folsom- Ode to a Rainy Day [mp3 320] >Fuzz recordings taken from tracks Folsom made between the years 1972-1975 that never made it into an album. Folsom never achieved any mainstream success despite releasing one album in the early 70s. mega.nz/#F!sGQnxKZZ!DC59Ua9vgnzX-eu8u6LehA
hey thanks so much user these are so far up my alley and I'm all burried up in quarintine. peace to you

Gary Higgins- Red Hash >Hippy acid-folk gem that was rediscovered in the late 90s b the freak folk community alongside Mark Fry and Linda Perhacs that motivated some of the artists associated with the movement. mega.nz/#F!geBB0ATS!2kuwCeaYq6TjMPHFHnFbxA
And to you, as well. if you go into the archive and find the thread that I first made earlier this week, you can find the thread I made in which I shared the link to every single album from the chart. However, I'm trying to advertise some of the less-commonly discussed albums and, hence, why I'm sharing some of these individual links.
Jan Dukes de Grey- Sorcerers [mp3 320] >UK acid folk with a focus on fantasy and medieval themes. A highly sought-after psych folk release. mega.nz/#F!EehniBpD!ZwX6xiYqXk_dW8Huuzeu2w
Caedmon- s/t [mp3 320] >UK folk rock that hearkens back to the druids.\ For fans of The Pentangle and Fairport Convention. Nice blend of acoustic and electronic instrumentation- several songs are really elevated with the droning sounds of the electronic instrumentation. mega.nz/#F!4GZ3WaBZ!Nenzo6YVB8f9g63SJSEVxQ
Bread, Love, and Dreams- Amaryllis [mp3 320] >UK prog folk with a psych edge. Opening track is a 20-minute suite. A really coveted record. mega.nz/#F!QKR33CQR!VefBViC8NxcYTNqDhxVpYA
Synanthesia- s/t [mp3 320] >UK acid folk with many Eastern elements that create a psychedelic landscape. The track Morpheus is a stand-out for myself. mega.nz/#F!wPJ1nCTL!sOJuA-T0BK5tF406tE3nOg
Tyrannosaurus Rex- Unicorn [mp3 320] >One of my favorite albums and one of the first psych folk albums I had ever heard. Sung Tongs by Animal Collective sounds like it takes direct inspiration from this fun album.Several tracks feature spoken word pieces about the travels of anthropomorphized forest critters going questing. mega.nz/#F!QWIRAIrR!66AYTXwhtGodvhISqM8DfQ
