Help!

i've got a dj slot on friday in a club and its part of four dj's all running on different themes of the four horsemen of the apocalypse, my slot has to do withpestilence, so can you all name any songs you know that have any vague reference to pestilence, mainly indie and rock songs, but honestly anything will do!!!!!!!!!!

thanks!

 

Smelly Kat? That has a lot to do with pestilence!

 

Lazy Line Painter Jane - Belle & Sebastian (well, it's got a reference to STDs in it, probably doesn't count as pestilence...)
I daresay A Perfect Circle, Tool, Metallica and The Smiths probably have something somewhere.

For the other horsemen - do you have...
Preaching the End of the World - Chris Cornell
Don't Fear the Reaper of course
Time is Running Out - Muse
The Black Angel's Death Song - Velvet Underground

I'm a bit rubbish really. Hope that helped Spyder!

 

no no, that was good

all i could think of was down with the sickness by disturbed...eeep

why couldnt they give me death that would have been so much easier

 

I immediately thought of "the aphid" by the Fall, but that's more famine-related...

I'll have a think

 

if i get what you mean,
what about uhm

'Your Disease' - Saliva (kerrange cd's are finally useful for something)
'New Disease' - Spinshank
'Wave of Mutilation' - The Pixies
'Death Threat' - Insolence
'Make Me Bad (Sickness in Salva' - Korn
'Death of ones elbow'
or 'Death of a disco dancer' - The Smiths
'Wake the Dead' - A Perfect Circle
'Dried up, Tied and Dead to the World'
or 'Minute of Decay' - Marilyn Manson

apparently Pestilence were a death / thrash metal band from the Netherlands, so it'd be funny if you could get hold of some their stuff!

(and if i've miss-understood and look stoopid (don't tell dok) - and be nice to me, i'm dandy after all?)

 

Shake The Disease by Depeche Mode?

Shaking the Disease by Anthrax..

 

It's too late now, but I just thought...

I've Got You Under My Skin

 

Shit, I missed this... hope it went well

 

Sorry, I'm crap and couldn't come up with any...

How did it go? What songs did you find?

 

cheers for the suggestions

my set was a bit random... but here are a selection of the ones that i played

jimmy cliff - suffering in the land
the specials - ghost town
hot hot heat - bandages
REM - its the end of the world (and i feel fine)
the smiths - still ill
marylin manson - minute of decay
down with the sickness (sorry i dont know who thats by)
system of a down - toxicity
red hot chili peppers - scar tissue
