Are you happy with your speakers? I’m not. But every time I think I’m positive they’re blown, I realize it’s because I’m listening to some shitty MP3. I wish there was a song I could plug in and it would definitively tell me if my speakers suck.
Are you happy with your speakers? I’m not. But every time I think I’m positive they’re blown, I realize it’s because I’m listening to some shitty MP3 or a lazy track with nothing in it. I wish there was a song I could plug in and it would definitively tell me the quality of my stereo. This is such a song. It’s also the best song of the year. Ra Ra Riot’s Wes Miles and Vampire Weekend’s Rostam Batmanglij have put together a 4 minute track that is the perfect stereo workout. There isn’t an inch of plastic that doesn’t get tested by this fantastic cacophony and it taught me a valuable lesson: My stereo is definitely garbage.
I don’t see whats so special about this that it test the powers of your stereo. All the levels are very similar throughout and no extreme variation in tone. Sound stage is fairly tight with no major variations aaaaaaaaaaand it sucks, nothing special…..your not special.
i quite like it.
agreed. it’s the shiiiiit! (DLOAD IT HERE….see below and read review)

Hey Hanus — have another mountain dew. Oh, and please don’t forget to shower occasionally.
Hanus, you are a ray of fuckin’ sunshine, aren’t you kiddo? What’s the matter, didn’t Jesus want you for a sunbeam?
This shit bites.
My sound system is so awesome. Sometimes, I watch porn and trick my parents into thinking I’m getting laid in the next room. It’s that good.
it’s a dece track but my common sense starts tingling when the words ‘vampire’, ‘weekend’, and ‘best’ hang together.
AnCo’s ‘in the flowers is better for this
Are you fucking kidding me?
You just said AnCo?
What the fuck can I do to hurry you along to your death?
Fine, I guess we can just pick and choose letters from band names from now on.
If you’ll excuse me I’m off to listen to Imal Llective, nig nugs.
i think the fact that people are enjoying shitty music like this is a sign that the economy will be booming back soon.
this isn’t even from europe
I think this sounds like those two guys found Hot Chip’s three year old peas porridge and are trying to sell it to any chump who’ll buy.
cmon. i love streetcarnage but i am NOT down with plugging this kind of music. its just not good enough. i’d rather you guys plug some of your favorite songs from a few years back, or the way distant past, that other people missed and would be enlightened to hear.
i test all of my speakers and headphones with Rob Zombie’s “what lurks on Channel x.” always.
omg, this is so, like, a month and a half ago. ooover iiiiiit. let’s try to keep it current, gavin
fuck yeah best album of 09
This, uh… isn’t very good music.
fucking hate vampire weekend more than anything. but this isn’t bad.
this song, like your stereo, is definitely garbage
this really makes me want to play mario kart. rainbow road 4eva!
