MCR Music spam

[channonyarrow]

EDIT 8/11/08: This post is easily found by searching Google for MCR. For reference: I will no longer upload all the albums. If it is a released album, I will not upload those. I will only upload the files I have put together by looking for unreleased material; I will not reupload I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love, Life On The Murder Scene, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, The Black Parade, and The Black Parade Is Dead. Do not ask me for them. I have no reason to give music easily acquired to people who have found me through Google.

However, I will give you the most recent version of the files as I have them. I am constantly on the lookout for new music by MCR, and when I find it, I add it to the list of things I can give you.

I will also not reupload for you if you meet the following criteria:
- If you do not have an LJ.
- If your LJ is ONE DAY OLD, seriously, people.
- If you request all the albums. If you're into MCR, you should have at least a couple of the albums, for god's sake.
- If anything about your request makes me think that you are looking for music just to have it - ie, you're not actually particularly interested in this band.

I'm not doing this because I have a particular opinion on file sharing, royalties, and the rest of the free music kerfuffle, I'm doing it because I care about this band a lot, and I have no interest in depriving them of the proceeds from the sales of their albums.

In case that was TL; DR for you (in which case, I'm not going to give you the music anyway) I will not give you the released albums. Don't ask.

For sparkfrost, and for anyone else who wants them, a massive MCR music spam. Like, seriously massive. SERIOUSLY massive.

Warnings: The Covers and Other Oddities file is HUGE. There's an hour and a half long file of The Black Parade show in London that's 76MB in size; everything else in that folder is under eight, individually. I use, as always, sendspace. MOST files are .mp3; some are .m4a and at least one is .m4p. The files are compressed with Stuffit, or .sitx, which SHOULD be openable by any (reasonable) expander. The files should be valid for a week; if not, let me know.

Much grazie and hearts to graeae and spamcola for their parts in collecting all this.

I do not have the Warped Tour Bootleg discWarped Tour Bootleg disc has been acquired, and I didn't upload the Like Phantoms, Forever EP as a separate album because it's one non-record track (Jack the Ripper) which is in the Covers and Other Oddities folder, and two tracks that turned up on Bullets. There are a few odd tracks that I still don't have, so this is not comprehensive, but it's damn close. I didn't upload any videos, since they're readily available on YouTube, but I do have three, all in .m4v format, for Vampires Will Never Hurt You, Honey, This Mirror's Not Big Enough For The Both Of Us, and Famous Last Words.


Official Releases and Somewhat Official Releases

Dreams of Stabbing And/Or Being Stabbed (The Attic Demos)
These are the demos that went on to become Bullets; I don't have all of them.
- Turnstiles
- Bring More Knives (became Our Lady Of Sorrows)
- Cubicles
- Early Sunsets Over Monroeville
MISSING: Wish You Away (Drowning Lessons demo) and Stabbing (Vampires Will Never Hurt You demo). Those are tracks four and five. Which, of course, means that these are tracks 1-3 and 6.

Like Phantoms, Forever (EP)
This was a concert sampler (I've heard different variations on what it was for, how many were released, and where it comes from). I've only included Jack The Ripper, as the other two are from Bullets, but I've provided the track listing because I CAN. Jack The Ripper is in the Covers and Other Oddities folder.

Live versions, but notable for their stage chatter. Gerard sounds really like it was not a good show, audience-wise, but he's trying. Some very funny bits of chatter. One of these tracks (I don't remember which) is the one that appears on Murder Scene, but the rest are different

This is Frank Iero's former band, the one that started MCR, in many ways. Can I just ask how it is not possible to love a band that writes a song called Lloyd Dobbler? It is, in fact, not possible to not love that band. Frank is the cutest midget in the world.

I think I am kind of an idiot. Can I convert these somehow? iTunes is not a big fan of this format, in fact refuses to play it. Any ideas?

(Yeah, I mostly use my computer for Internet)

[channonyarrow.livejournal.com]

Okay, first - are you using a Mac or a PC?

And second - did you get the files expanded? I'm not sure what the default on PCs is, these days, but I'm assuming it's WinZIP - do you have that installed? If yes and it didn't open stuffit files (the Mac default) I can check and see what will.

And third - what version of iTunes are you using? It shouldn't have a problem with any of the files depending on how new it is, but the massive bulk of them are .mp3, which is a format it likes. The only ones I'd expect trouble with are the m4a and m4p, maybe.

[drui-en.livejournal.com]

I have been terribly neglectful of correspondence with you, and feel horrid for it.
Miss you, lady.

[channonyarrow.livejournal.com]

Oh, well, you've abandoned LJ for MySpace, and I've abandoned Y and MSN, so we're stuck with occasionals, until I convince you to move closer and then come to Canada and bug you all the time. I would so love to actually have an in-face conversation some day. *g*

I miss you too.

[miss-saigon.livejournal.com]

Hey I came across this on friendsfriends and I hope you don't mind that I grabbed a bunch of stuff. There's a lot of cool stuff here that I haven't heard before:)

[channonyarrow.livejournal.com]

Yeah, not a problem at all! I'm always happy to share the MCR. *g*

[koemiko.livejournal.com]

I am suddenly very glad I finally got StuffIt.

[channonyarrow.livejournal.com]

Ahahaha, yeah, there's stuff on here that I didn't have when I sent the cds to you. My friends rule for finding stuff for me, and you make it awesome by wanting it as well!

Dreams of Stabbing and/or Being Stabbed

[ravenblackhardt.livejournal.com]

Is that Vampires will never hurt you demo? Or is it another song? I am searching for that.
Thie links are no longer working. Is it possible for you to reupload them?
R

Re: Dreams of Stabbing and/or Being Stabbed

[channonyarrow.livejournal.com]

I can reupload, but I'm not sure what I've got is what you're looking for - I'm missing the Vampires Will Never Hurt You demo (originally titled Stabbing, as far as I can tell.) I've got Turnstiles, Cubicles, Early Sunsets, and the Our Lady of Sorrows demo, though.

Cubicles demo
Early Sunsets over Monroeville demo
Bring More Knives (Our Lady of Sorrows demo)
Turnstiles demo

[closetfanatic.livejournal.com]

Hi, I've been trying to download these demos FOREVER, and just found your post. The files are no longer available on sendspace. Can I persuade you to make them available one more time?? Also, if you have time, the unofficial releases you have listed have some stuff that I don't have. I really don't subscribe to downloading music that you can pay for otherwise, but with this being unavailable, I really just, well...
I would appreciate it!!

[channonyarrow.livejournal.com]

Part of the reason I ever even posted it is because so much of it's not available at all, so I'm down with that. I mean, I would love the chance to give someone some money for the stuff in the Unofficial Releases file, but that's not happening any time soon, so this is why the internet exists!

Reposted the demos here:
Bring More Knives
Cubicles
Early Sunsets Over Monroeville
Skylines And Turnstiles

And the oddities file is here as a .sitx, which SHOULD be openable by WinZIP (it's a mac format, but generally .zip expanders can open it, I've found). If you can't get it open, let me know what you're looking for and I can post it as individual files. You've got a week to retrieve these before they expire, and don't forget - the oddities file is HUGE.

[shaedowcat.livejournal.com]

Snagging the Attic Demos you have up, because I've been looking forever and you've just made my year. And could you please reupload Heartbreak in Stereo? Because that would be awesome. XD

[channonyarrow.livejournal.com]

Done!

Let me know if the stuffit is a problem for you - it should be openable by any zip expander, but sometimes there's a problem, and if so, I can repost the individual tracks.

Glad you found those tracks!

MCR-Piano Tribute Players

[annerz1110.livejournal.com]

Hi. =] Do you think you could upload the Piano Tribute Players versions of MCR again? I'd greatly appreciate it for dance class. thanks.

Re: MCR-Piano Tribute Players

[channonyarrow.livejournal.com]

Sure!

Here it is. If you can't open the Stuffit (it should expand with any reasonably-updated PC expander) let me know and I can repost individual songs.

[axelblazer.livejournal.com]

Hey there!

I was searching through the web for the "Dreams of Stabbing And/Or Being Stabbed" demos and came across your post. Would you be able to up them for me please? It would be greatly appreciated. =)

[channonyarrow.livejournal.com]

Can do, and have done! here

Just as a note, I haven't updated that part of this post, since I haven't gotten confirmation from anywhere, but this might be the complete Attic Demos; the songs I stated I was missing have not turned up and have, in fact, disappeared off the wiki, so I'm not sure that they exist. But whether this is the full deal or not, enjoy!

upload?

[itskeane.livejournal.com]

Can you upload these again for me please? Let me know if you do :D thanks so much!

Re: upload?

[channonyarrow.livejournal.com]

I thought about it for a while and I'm fine with uploading most of the files, but I've decided that I don't want to upload the stuff that can be purchased. I'd rather the money went to the band, or at the least that I didn't cause it not to.

Here are the links. They're good for one week.
Covers and Other Oddities
Festival Hall
One of the KROQ files
Pencey Prep
Piano Tribute
String Quartet
KROQ Christmas
Live & Rare
The Attic Demos
Warped Tour Bootleg
Fortunate Son

Some of these may be duplicates; I don't remember what I have at this point or where it's at. Also, if you have trouble with .sitx, unfortunately I don't have another uploader, but recent versions of PC compression software will handle the format.

Enjoy!

I was wondering...

[blood-runner-13.livejournal.com]

I have been searching forever to try and find the attic demos Stabbing (Vampires Will Never Hurt You) and Wish You Away (Drowning Lessons). I came upon this site when I did a Google search. I was wondering if you could reupload Dreams of Stabbing and/or Being Stabbed because my computer gave me an error message saying that the link had expired. I have all the other attic demos but I still need those two. My email address is sophiasbff13@yahoo.com if you would like to email me or anything along those lines. If you cannot reupload the attic demos you could try sending them to my email. Thank you so much.

Re: I was wondering...

[channonyarrow.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately, those are the two I'm missing myself. *g* I have never seen them anywhere, and given some of the stuff that I and my minions have found, I'm starting to think it's possible they don't exist.

If they ever turn up, though, I'll let you know, but don't hold your breath at this point - I've been hoping for a year that they would.

I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news!

[monvenin.livejournal.com]

Hey, I got here from a comment you posted over here (http://bloodygoodgirl.livejournal.com/117305.html) and I was wondering if you could re-upload "Dreams of Stabbing and/or Being Stabbed" and "Covers And Other Oddities"? I've been looking for the attic demos and would be super super grateful if you'd re-upload.

[monvenin.livejournal.com]

Oooh, forget re-uploading the attic demos, I found a working link in the comments.

[dancinbutterfly.livejournal.com]

This is fabulous but everything's expired. There's no way I can convince you to reup this is there?

[channonyarrow.livejournal.com]

I can totally reupload, within the constraints detailed at the top of the post.

Covers And Other Oddities file (Updated 7/09; I am actually no longer sure what's in it, but if something's missing let me know and I'll put it up separately - it's 145 mb as it stands.)

If you've got a problem with .sitx (it's a Mac-native file type, but the latest version of WinZIP SHOULD open it) let me know and I can reupload as zips; I just found these already in my Mediafire folder. I don't currently have the tribute albums, the Kerrang album, or Pencey Prep uploaded, but if you want those, let me know and I'll put them up!
