Six-Word Reviews of 1,302 SXSW Mp3s

In anticipation of the South by Southwest music festival, which begins today in Austin, Texas, more than a thousand acts—almost twice as many as last year—offered an mp3 to showcase their sound. Once again, PAUL FORD listened to them all.

TMN MERCH

If a Bird Can’t Fly It Walks

Sanguine and adhesive, our bumper sticker makes a swell gift for anyone who’s swearing off excuses in the new year.
» ORDER NOW

For brevity, I kept each review to exactly six words. Clicking on a band’s name takes you to its web site. Clicking on the song title takes you to its page on the SXSW web site. Full band information is not always available, but clicking on the rating circle (●) or circles always takes you directly to an mp3 file so you can listen to the song. Right-click to download. By popular request, all links pop up in new windows/tabs.

Many bands appearing in Austin did not release mp3s directly to SXSW; only those bands that did so were reviewed. The data used to create this table is available in a Google Spreadsheet. The reviews and ratings are available for re-use under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 United States license; no claim is made over any of the other data therein, which was acquired by web-scraping and from the unofficial torrents.

Note: Steve Burns of Steve Burns (& the Struggle) is my friend; more specifically, I have controlled his mind. It would not be ethical for me to review his song, so I have asked him to contribute his own rating and review.
