rule. seriously. i couldnt NOT make a thread for these guys.

for anyone who is new to them, i probably suggest "RISE ABOVE". unless you're brave. if you are, then "THE GETTY ADDRESS". seriously that shit is rediculoussssssssly good.

so! check them out. BUT, if you are already a huge fan.... maybe, like me, you are a little obsessive? well, you're in luck! i have a gift for you!!! i organized my dirty projector rarities... mostly non lp material, but also live material that is different enough from the original to validate having its own spot hahah.

let me know if anyone else has any success coming across anything else i'm missing... i'd really like to get everything i can from these cats.

okay, well, if nothing else, i hope you enjoy these, i know i do. xoxo

I got really into Bitte Orca last year, but haven't listened to it at all recently, I've majorly gone off it. It's technically incredibly interesting and skilful, but their music doesn't have a lot of heart for me.

i think they're just awful and the girl cannot sing...it hurts my ears when i listen to them, knowing bjork will be probably produce her further albul with them kill me...and the concert she does with them at the brooklyn library made me laugh
sorry, don't want to be rude but i think this is an other indie group overrated...

fuck the dirty projectors! I am NOT some fucking hipster, and I simply cannot stand them.

I have to agree with those who do not like them, although they don't provoke me into a fit of rage.
ursula, such language!

holy shit hahha you guys are intense

check the getty address, seriously. i only recommended bitte orca cause its the most mainstream.

PLEASE check these getty songs, maybe you'll dig this stuff.

i will truck : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpc6HSfdRkM
drilling profitably : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBXZzgbvqkU
warholian wigs : http://vimeo.com/4755681
jolly jolly jolly ego : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OUaVmTjjkc

I only watched 'i will truck' until just shortly after the singing started. Definitely not my cuppa tea. Didn't see any point in going on.

haha sorry travy but it's still painful

stfu you guys

lol nah its cool, just means i have an easier chance of getting a ticket when they come by

honestly though, once you get into these cats its fuckin crazy good. they're at the top of my fav list, along with joanna, the smiths, bjork, cocorosie, bob dylan.. those guys have to compete for airtime with dirty pros lolzzzz

AT LEASET U GUYZ LIK JOANNA WITCH IS MOR THEN I CAN SAY FOR MOST PPL I KNOW?!?!!?

I like this band a lot. Discovered them as almost everybody, with the hype of Bitte Orca. I really enjoy that album.

I actually just listened to Bitte Orca. It's good. Just not great. I mayyyy try that other album you seem to bum.

Everything I've heard by them seemed a bit too try too hard. Forced quirkiness. Must say I don't think that good on a purely technical level, either.

i am very opinionated, and foul-mouthed

The music is OK for me, but I don't like the vocals.

ugh i really do dislike these characters! and everyone told me i'd love them, which probably makes me hate them more. so that's not exactly their fault.
