I've been working on the ultimate compilation in my head for a while now, but I think it might be time to get it in order. This would be a CD (conceptual or actual) that you could throw in your changer, and when it was time for everyone to leave the party, this would help. Of course, if all your parties are frequented by record collector nerds and/or contrarians, feel free to ignore. However, if anyone has ever felt the urge to clear a room quickly, your opinion is welcome.

My initial offerings:

Yoko Ono - "Cambridge 1969"
Steve Reich - "Come Out"
Raymond & Peter - Shut Up, Little Man
Iannis Xenakis - Le Legende D'Er
Gore - Lifelong Deadline

and, of course, Metal Machine Music.

Wanna clear a Room?

Killdozer.


Touch and Go used to run ads with that as the headline.

This one's a favorite:

I've found that Sightings will do this very well. Pick any song and the room will be empty.

at high volume, any album by any noise artist

"Barbie Girl". I don't remember the "artist" who "sang" it.

It's an 80s faux-europop song that I literally cannot listen to without wanting to kill everything that can be killed by conventional weapons.

What else?

-Papa Roach. All.
-"Yes we have no bananas"
-William Shatner's cover of "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" (a close second to Barbie Girl for the most gut-wrenchingly, groin-punchingly. christ-rapingly awful thing ever made)

The Gerogerigegege: 'Tokyo Anal Dynamite'
Whitehouse: 'Quality Time' (because if the noisy stuff doesn't drive them away, then "Baby" probably will), but any of their records will do...
Swans: 'Public Castration is a Good Idea'
The Residents: 'Third Reich 'N' Roll'
Peter Sotos: 'Buyer's Market'
Skinny Puppy: 'Puppy Gristle'. "Download" from 'Last Rights' will usually do the trick, too.
Throbbing Gristle: 'Second Annual Report' or any of the live stuff

It was Aqua. I despise this song.

It makes me want to invent new adjectives to express the pejorative.

Craticile.

Molubistic.

Fluttular.

steve reich: come out
steve reich: electric guitar phase
pharoah sanders: hum-allah
