vull insisted for this thread to be created. Since he gave a lot of information about the song is trying to identify, I'm creating this thread for him.

Here's the description:

Hello

Maybe someone will recognize a song for me if I describe it a bit? The thing is that I've searched for it for 4 years now or smth, but haven't got any results just because I've searched by keywords. Maybe someone has the song in their head and could help me out here - it's not the type of song that could be forgotten easily!
To the song then:
It's definitely a metal band. something similar to Powerman 5000 - to their guitars perhaps.
And the vocalist sounds more like Slaves On Dope singer than any other... just more agressive and quicker. Perhaps a little bit harder voice as well. But it wasn't as rough as hatebreeds vocalist.
I found antoher band that sounds like this song: Noise Therapy - the vocalist sounds very familiar with it, but perhaps the song I am looking for was a bit more agressive and quicker than most of the Noise Therapy's songs...

The song might go back to year 2000 (or even further back - I heard it first in 2000-01), so it's quite old (it was on the same cassette as Powerman 5000 with it's song Ultra Mega, therefore it has to be year >= 2000. I think the 2 songs followed each other, so they were both recorded at a certain, short period of time).

The one thing i remember about it is that the guy started to sing:
"pump.......pump.....pump it up.. now" (or smth. It's very certain rhythm that he sings it in, so I'm not sure if someone will catch it. "..."-s represent the little pause that you can sing in your head.)
And then the guy started to sing something quite quickly... something like "laaa... la la la la laa la laa." :S - tried to re-create the rhythm, so if you try to read it, perhaps you will get it. Then the music stopped for bass-part culmination:
- The bass produced was just intense! Dunno if it was guitars only, but it sounded like the guitarist started to play from the upper part of the guitar (sorry, dunno name for the place you move your fingers to get the chords - but if the hand moves more up, then it usually creates lower tones and vice versa...) and moved downwards at least 4 times, creating this rapid chord-changes (but actually I'd say that he played more up for about 2 seconds, producing many chords very quickly and then there was 3 moves to lower part of the guitar head, then 1 more upward, somewhere in the middle - and those 4 were made during 1 second at least! then it started all over again).
So i could say that the hand moved on the "guitar head" or smth very quickly, it didn't stand on one place... and the solo was repeated many times. and after that came this "pump, pump, pump it up" part again i think. or maybe there was this singer with the other words again.... and this chord-movement was always behind the pump-it-up part, just that it wasn't so intense that it was during the instruments solo.
any idea what song could it be? i had the song on a cassette, but now the cassette is dissapeared to somewhere - I could otherwise record it to digital format :s

Your description makes me think of H-Blockx (hope i spelled the name right), a funny crossover (rap-metal) band in the 90s.

Oh man, this is one tough song to find...I'm trying my best here since the last couple of hours. I listened to the song 10 times maybe and got the following from it: the repeating part is 100% "pump, pump, pump it up oh boy" (rather than ...homeboy) and there's a part that says "...cause it's all about marketing strategy/ new record label policy/ that says music cannot ever be/ so challenging to the whole industry".
So the thing I tried is find the song by the lyrics phrases on at least 10 sites. There are plenty, that's for sure
I'm pretty sure the songs name does not contain "pump it up" or anything from that song part, chorus, whatever, because all the songs listed with that name had different lyrics.
So the thing i would advise you is to try to find this song by the lyrics... To bad it's a cassette-rip and I couldn't understand the whole text because there may be some keywords that could give a hint... i'm still trying to find the song...you have my full support

cool, thanks!

i recorded it through the headphones output now - maybe this helps?
i still think it says "homeboy", because that was a slang used on that period of time..

Hello!
Hello!
Help! Can you identify the song?
This song came from a tape that i have recorded many years ago (before 1991).
I thought that it was early The Running Wild, but I did not find that song in theirs discography.

Sweet, google has managed to find it out for me at last =)

did like "pump it up homeboy challenging to the whole industry" search on google yesterday and it took me to this forum post:
http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?p=6429938#post6429938

i might have searched for "pump it up homeboy new record label policy" or "pump it up homeboy all about marketing strategy" aswell, but cant actually remember which of the 3 was it, because it doesnt bring up that post again with neither of them ?? ... (pc crash also deleted all my browsing history...)

anyway - the band is Tung and the song is called Badmouth
some old yorkshire garage band? :p http://www.myspace.com/tungentertainments
that forum post is from the year 2006... :|

Is someone able to tell me what band/song that is played in the background here (from 38m05s)?
I would be very grateful if someone helped me with this enigma, I've googled the lyrics but no result.
