I saw Dirty 3 live once and hated them. Droning, boring, dreadful wank. And I love GBYE and Mogwai so go figure.

One of the few regrets I do have, as their music deserves to be experienced live (preferably in a small- to medium- sized joint).

And from the notes on that Discogs page:
Jeanette Leech wrote in "Fearless: The Making Of Post-Rock" (Jawbone Press, 2017) on Page 302-303:"Menuck was 'doing this four-track thing in my house, usually at three in the morning, coming home from a bar, just doing something quickly, and then trying to turn it into something the next day'. In 1994, as 'a young man's formal experiment', Menuck self-released a cassette, in an edition of thirty-three: All Lights Fucked On The Hairy Amp Drooling.'The idea was this would be the last thing I would ever do,' Menuck says. 'A big dramatic gesture that nobody would care about. It was a private thing, let's get this out of my system, and then figure out something else to do with my life. It's pretty ragged, and there are some shared qualities with what Godspeed became, but I don't know if those similarities would be evident to anyone but those of us on the inside.' The tape was mostly just Menuck, but Mauro Pezzente also plays on a couple of tracks; the biggest difference between this material and Godspeed, Menuck says, is, 'There's singing on it. I can't really listen to it objectively, and it's not like I listen to it a lot. I think the last time I listened to it was six years ago. I think it's interesting.' Despite many hoaxes, to date the cassette hasn't been leaked on the internet or offered for sale on the open market. 'For years, I've been saying it's gonna get out there someday, and people are gonna be pretty disappointed, because it's of the time,' Menuck says.

reminds me of when someone found the "By Request Only" album from Ken, it's okay but way more fun as a lost media piece

Huh! Seemed guaranteed to be a fake but someone on Twitter says it's real so.
― Vangelis fleadh (seandalai), Friday, 4 February 2022 22:55 (two years ago) link
Listening now.. I actually think this is pretty good? It's just not really a Godspeed album, it's something else. But it might be better than Menuck is giving it credit for (if it's real that is).
― mirostones, Saturday, 5 February 2022 00:28 (two years ago) link
After listening, I think that this is the real thing, rather than an elaborate hoax. It's better and more interesting than I was expecting, at least as an artefact of the pre-history of the group. The mythology and mystery of it being totally lost for so long was great, but I'm happy to finally have the chance to hear it.
― brain (krakow), Saturday, 5 February 2022 12:34 (two years ago) link
It's got some great atmosphere and a couple great moments, but yeah - it's a bit of a slog to get through.
Now can we have Carnival of Light and all those early Boards of Canada pressings (Acid Memories, Play By Numbers, etc) leak too?
― octobeard, Monday, 7 February 2022 19:17 (two years ago) link
I know this reflects poorly on me, but I can remember this being "leaked" on 4chan's /mu/ board literally 10 years ago. It's just doing the rounds again.
No opinion on its legitimacy, but weird that this is being claimed as a "new leak" when it's not. Actually I do have an opinion! That fact makes it pretty shady to me
― hrep (H.P), Tuesday, 8 February 2022 03:20 (two years ago) link
a convincing rip of the whole thing hasn't turned up before, it's new. two tracks were uploaded in 2013 and this new upload that claims to be the entire album includes what appears to be a new rip of those two previously uploaded tracks. this doesn't confirm that any of it is legit though.
― ufo, Tuesday, 8 February 2022 03:26 (two years ago) link
i'm not on music torrent sites anymore, but someone can just check whatever the equivalent of what.cd is now. in the old days there was an ENORMOUS bounty for the godspeed thing, and the previous leaks didn't cut it. i heard that the new leak is the real thing, but who knows
― Barfl Suckown (Karl Malone), Tuesday, 8 February 2022 03:43 (two years ago) link
i'm not on any of the private trackers these days but i've heard they're waiting for proof of legitimacy before they allow it
― ufo, Tuesday, 8 February 2022 04:11 (two years ago) link
True ufo, did not realise that.
the new what.cd is Redacted. Had an account but think it's been disabled due to lack of use (whoops)
― hrep (H.P), Tuesday, 8 February 2022 07:00 (two years ago) link
yeah redacted has accepted it as real. bounty was 3TB at the end.
