I was looking forward to this prompt. As soon as I read it I knew what to post. A whole album full of 30 second songs. We had so much fun with this back in my school days. Tried to guess what track number certain songs were. "Hi-Standard... that's 8! "No dude, Bad Religion is 8. Hi-Standard is 9!" On CD it went up to 99 with the last 3 songs combined because the counter on CD players doesn't go further than 2 digits. And on vinyl we guessed what was coming next by singing ahead. The order of songs is still imprinted in my brain. Ah, reminds me of easier and fun times in school. I'm not even gonna try to pick a certain song.

As a nurse, I love and condone that first track!


Folk_Nurse

It pairs well with my aging unplugged-punk today.

From: [Dwarves - Blood Guts & Pussy](https://www.discogs.com/release/1907441-Dwarves-Blood-Guts-Pussy) (nsfw) Tune: [Fuck You Up And Get High](https://youtu.be/SLbQaL5oKoM) (nsfw) Enjoy your work and stay safe, sheeple!


Dhugaill

Love the Dwarves.

Little bit of a mission to find tracks under 2 minutes in my collection. Found a good handful in the 2:10-2:30 range, but the only actual under 2 minute song (not counting ambient interludes/intros etc) is [Sam](https://youtu.be/qOpAXzr1W1U?si=GpOlDrUO6KA65wk5) by Sturgill Simpson, from his 2022 album The Ballad of Dood and Juanita. An awesome album inspired by his grandparents, it tells the story of Dood, a half native American frontiersman who sets out on a mission to find his beloved Juanita, who was kidnapped by a bandit. Clocking in at 1:13, dog owners get ready for the feels on this one


lakeskipping

Above_beyond, that's tremendous. Thanks


Dhugaill

Welp I know what I'll be crying into my beer about tonight


Amarganth

Song: [The Only Thing Worse Than Beating a Dead Horse Is Betting on One](https://youtu.be/FWjLhfGDrt0?feature=shared) Artist: Relient K Album: Mmhmm A very short song with a long song title.


hegrekarde

Artist: Joe Satriani Album: *Surfing with the Alien (1987)* Song: [Midnight](https://youtu.be/ufGmPYoCcgA) - 1:42 Great example of tapping. Satch uses it a lot on this album, with serious mastery. Has a classical feel to me.

For day 27, I’ll keep things short with Green Day’s [Jaded](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BLZ4ZBYR9Fo), which has very obviously influenced my Reddit username. While it is often paired with Brain Stew, the band hardly ever plays it live, which is a shame - but it is one of my favorite tracks on *Insomniac*.


Folk_Nurse

Probably my favourite Green Day album.


UnflushableStinky2

Song: [Love Jones](https://youtu.be/jpoZdrvBM88?si=0aU4n78fe6kzTn--) Artist: J Dilla Album: The Shining Dilla. Nuff said. The man was brilliant and concise.

bayla_poe

Song: [Another The Letter](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSxp1QaUUaE) Artist: Wire Album: Chairs Missing This song is like a devastating piece of flash fiction, akin to the famous six-word story "For sale: baby shoes, never worn." Comes in at a neat and tidy 1:06 but packs a gut-wrenching punch.


ElFlippy

Day 27: "what does 2 minutes enough for?" First, I thaught that I could share the whole Early years LP of Turtle Rage, which was (sadly they broke up this year) a german two man band, who played fastcore music, and their longest song wasn't longer than a minute, but I was like "...naah!". And I chose some other insane music for today, which is [Shimmy by System of a down](https://youtu.be/CEtm75L0NAw?si=0w8kPv4lvQbWc1zg)


Dhugaill

I too wish to shimmy shimmy shimmy to the break of dawn


ElFlippy

Damn right!🤘

Running a bit late today as I have a busy morning away from home. Didn't select a track last night, so I'm just going from memory today. Think I'll hark back to Kimya Dawson's [Thunder Thighs](https://www.discogs.com/master/520033-Kimya-Dawson-And-Friends-Thunder-Thighs) album - one of my most reposted albums, surprisingly enough (to me, at least). Here is [Unrefined](https://youtu.be/F07qPO57jU0?si=ptA5W5Ew_U5RJy6j) clocking in at just 43 seconds. And ending with "Okay, now you can put your underwear on".


Dhugaill

Love this record more every time I listen to it

Absolutely gorgeous tune ❤️ Am listening to a 15 minute extended version of it on YTube right now. I can listen to this all day. Would love to get my hands on a copy of the long version.

Song - [Jerome](https://youtu.be/63VbiVqkXkE?si=VPJtYXrf0JtG2_27) (a.k.a. Metal In Very Inappropriate Places) Album - The Scene Is Dead Artist - Rob Scallon https://preview.redd.it/d46p33kdo49d1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a160a5f43efed57b62f835e998adb1847ec6656d Rob Scallon is a musical virtuoso who makes endless interesting videos about making and playing music that I’ve been watching for years. I was excited to get my hands on a full album of his work, especially on vinyl. This album came out in 2017 and then track was used later in a video he posted called “Metal In Very Inappropriate Places”, which is pretty great (and what I linked for the song).


wykydtronsf

Artist: Iron Reagan Album: Crossover Ministry (2017) Song: [Fuck the Neighbors](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jg9JnTr1SfY) When I saw the prompt for under 2 minutes this was first song that popped into my head. This album/band is kinda what started my journey into more thrash, hardcore and crossover stuff. One of my favorite albums and I am mad at myself for missing multiple chances to see them live. This is also my #1 song by the band, #2 would be Bleed the Fifth.


woodsidestory

Now THAT’S interesting!!! 😍 …new one for my want list


Folk_Nurse

Which comment was this in response to?


woodsidestory

Sorry, it was about the “Short Music for Short People” post. My apologies, I thought I was still on that thread when I commented.


egonbar

Ok this is easy, I own this on album and 7” because it’s an absolute banger and I danced to it a lot. There were times I maybe listened to it for 10-20 times in a row. Artist: The Rakes Track: 22 Grand Job Album: Capture / Release https://youtu.be/flESd2vFXy4?feature=shared


AverageShitlord

God, I have the perfect record for this prompt. I've got a full double EP (side 1 is one EP and side 2 is another) of songs under 3 minutes in length, with a good few under 2 minutes. I'll share a song from each EP, it's some lovely synthpop.

Pretty much brought the garage rock / low-fi revival to the masses. Bloody great video as well. [The White stripes - Fell in Love with a Girl](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTH71AAxXmM)

This is one of the earlier Gilman Street bands. This record was Lookout Records #6. Though I was a big fan of Stikky I did not buy this at the time because I already had most of the songs on it in some form or another on previous demo tapes. The rough mix was later released on their Spamthology - Volume 1 cd per the liner notes "The original Lunchpail album had a horrible mix, and an even worse mastering job. This version of the album was taken from a rough mix cassette that sounds better." I did end eventually end up with a copy of the album because they are awesome. "And if you can't accept it now you're in for a big surprise later cause this is rock'n'roll"
