Title: Where can I buy Daikaiju music?
Post by: Liquid5n0w on March 20, 2009, 03:23:00 AM
I know a few years ago there was a website where you could listen to the music from Escape Pod streamed, but that site has long since gone away and now they use MySpace music.  Their MySpace has a few of the songs for their recent album, but none of the Escape Pod stuff(I think).

I was hoping to get my hands on the songs from Escape Pod because they really get into my head.  I'm more then willing to pay a fair price for them, as long as I can get them in a non-DRM format.  Digital download is the only form I'm interested in, as I live in South Korea now.

"Digital download" is redundant.  All downloads are digital.

And pointing that out was utterly pointless.

Amazon US has one of their albums (http://www.amazon.com/s/qid=1237566570/ref=sr_nr_i_0?ie=UTF8&rs=&keywords=Daikaiju&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3ADaikaiju%2Ci%3Adigital-music) for download, but I'm not sure if you'll be able to get it in SK.

I'm nothing if not pointless.

See http://www.daikaiju.org/daikaiju/merch.html for all of their published stuff.
That includes the out-of-print "The Phasing Spider Menace" Enhanced CD-R EP.

In the spirit of "If you liked X you'll like Y", you might have a listen to The Insect Surfers - http://insectsurfers.com/mp3.htm - I only see 4 free mp3s there, but I'm sure there are a couple of others. Somewhere, like easter eggs, I guess.
Also The Madeira - http://www.themadeira.net/songs/ - quite a few freebies
The Tomorrowmen - http://www.myspace.com/tomorrowmen
The Penetrators http://www.penetrators.com/
The Surf Coasters - http://www.poprecords.com/surfcoasters/ or (Japanese) http://www.surfcoasters.com/ - Shigeo Naka is very good on guitar. Look for them on youtube too. Kiri the bass player can be entertaining.
and Pollo del Mar - http://www.pollodelmar.com/ - Ferenc has a pretty good list of links to other bands, at http://pollodelmar.com/links/frame.html
