Please go to ConversationSuicide.com or MYSPACE so that ALL PUREVOLUME listeners can experience the HIGH quality MP3 delivery of Conversation Suicide singles off of "EBT - The Best of Conversation Suicide so far" that can be found on IACMUSIC.COM -- AND it should be noted that on this IMPORTANT site for INDIE artists, we currently have THREE singles in the TOP 25 of the HARD ALTERNATIVE Genre Charts! So GIVE 'em a listen and GIVE Conversation Suicide a chance at greater recognition. Remember, both CASHBOX & ROLLING STONE Magazine pull some of their INDIE chart data from IACMUSIC.COM --BUT for all of you PUREVOLUME Phan's of PHLEGM & Conversation Suicide you can listen to over 35 tunes right here:
Conversation Suicide is One of Tucson's most amazing underground collectives, that has been headed up by PHLEGM on BASS/VOCALS for over 5 years along with a hoary host of talented & creative musicians. Associating with this collective includes the benefit of being the house band at one of the BEST Tucson UNDERGROUND MUSIC Scenes available, at their practice space in the ARTFEST MUSIC HAUS.
These Shows at PRINCEZZZ and PHLEGM's humble abode often draw more people than SOME of Tucson's sadly unattended clubs. ARTFEST provides a venue for Musicians who create & perform original music and are tired of NOT getting any reward for doing it. Some of Tucson's Finest Musicians have been in the band CONVERSATION SUICIDE and many of Tucson's FINEST Bands and associated musicians have played one of their EARLY shows, before acclaim, at an ARTFEST show over the past 10 years.
Their 3rd CD, "EBT", has just been completed and is sonically ready to go, just awaiting the pretty packaging and such for CD RELEASE --in the meantime you can hear HIGHER sound quality clips off that 2008 CD at IACMUSIC.COM or simply listen to 35 of our studio tunes here. Most of these songs were wonderfully recorded/mixed/and mastered by Bradley Torrison of DARKSIDE PRODUCTIONS and ALL of them had his handiwork for the mixing/mastering. Give us a listen while we are unsigned and trying to STAY in the TOP 40 for HARD ALTERNATIVE genre singles on IACMUSIC.COM and breakout even BIGGER on PUREVOLUME & MYSPACE.
The first two STUDIO recorded CDs, "NOT A CHANCE IN HELL" and
"Tucson Epidemic: Bands that shared the same Phlegm", have both been selling without the pretty packaging or BARCODE for $8.00 to $10.00, locally and abroad.
You can order these sonically completed works NOW by mailing a $5 money order to the address below OR wait for the soon to be mass-produced, with GRAPHICS/LYRIX, etc., COMPILATION ALBUM--
"EBT - THE BEST OF CONVERSATION SUICIDE so far..." coming in 2008.
For this already sonically completed project, ARTFEST MUSIC plans to partner with the INDIE label Kings= DISKMAKERS. This will be a compilation of some of our best work 2000-2007.

Good News! Somehow we've been getting airplay on IACMUSIC from all over the world and THREE of the singles off this year's release, "EBT - The Best of Conversation Suicide so far" made it back into the TOP 10 of HARD ALTERNATIVE genre!
And here's something funny, our ONE Hip-Hop offering (although we have LOADS more, but they never made it to the studio), the candid & freestyle, "HARDCORE with PHLEGM & C-note" made it to the TOP 100 of HIP HOP /RAP already on IACMUSIC!
SO help us bust it up here on PUREVOLUME Y'all!
AND give a listen to our latest ROCK ditty.
Much love for ALL original music listeners out there,
Phlegm of Conversation Suicide

SO it's STILL the case that we are getting some notice on CASHBOX Magazine's preferred CHARTS for INDIE Artists. Even though we've been able to stay in the TOP 25 of HARD ALTERNATIVE Genre Charts with THREE of the singles off "EBT - The Best of Conversation Suicide so far..." -- We could SURE use YOUR help. That's right---if you give these great tunes off the 2008 forthcoming CD a listen on IACMUSIC.COM or ConversationSuicide.com or even MYSPACE, you could help propel us into the TOP 10 of ALL indie Artists.
This would mean mention in not ONLY CASHBOX Magazine's Charts for INDIE ARTISTS, but ALSO quite possibly the Rolling Stone Magazine.
So come on, give a TUCSON hard workin' band a helpin' hand.
STREAM these great tunes from the 2008 CD from CONVERSATION SUICIDE on:
http://www.iacmusic.com ( IACMUSIC )
http://www.myspace.com ( MYSPACE ) OR simply
ConversationSuicide.com
C'mon, you know you want to see the UNDERGROUND come above ground, eh?
-much love for original indie music,

It's really true. CONVERSATION SUICIDE is NO. 1 right now on ROLLING STONE Magazine's most LAUDED Indie music website =
IACMUSIC.COM
They're the INDEPENDENT ARTISTS COMPANY and host GREATS like PETE Townshend of The WHO (formerly), NINE INCH NAILS, NOFX and others.
AND right now CONVERSATION SUICIDE is holding down the HARD ALTERNATIVE GENRE TOP SIX in three places! => NUMBER 1 with "DUI GUY" and NUMBER 4 with "Sun is Rising" and NUMBER 6 with 'IN HIS HEAD' ........
AND believe it or not, FOR THE MOMENT, we're HIGHER on the HARD ALTERNATIVE charts then NOFX!!! Maybe it's just a fluke, but either way--- if we could just find a NEW reliable DRUMMER, we could start MOVIN' shit in TUCSON, and abroad again!

NOTE: Currently the song TATTOO MY FIST can be found on MYSPACE and MP3.COM where a not-quite-as-humourous piece of the below conversation can be found....
An anonymous submission of a ficticious, stream of consciousness, dialog, with the ACTUAL Underground itself:
"hey Underground? yeah, hi. this is phlegm. mhmmm. yeah! how are you?
me? oh, i'm good. good. mhmm. really? that's cool. say, listen, i
need a quick favor............i hate to bug you, but if you've got time,
could you go ahead and hail this new anthem i wrote? ............sure.
sure. no, i understand, only if you've got the time............"
"oh, wait! there's the drums and the bass calling on the other line.
could i get you to hold? no, i'll be right back :-) "
..............................
"you still there, Underground? oh, good thanks for
holding...............yeah. those guys are so crazy. i guess they went
out and got drunk last night and got tattoos of fists on their
faces................. i know, right? so anyway, this whole "hail this
anthem" thing.... can i count on you, Underground? well you know, the
usual. i wasn't expecting much. i just kind of wanted you to tell
everyone on earth it was the best song ever written and maybe you could
beat up a few people when you listened to it. you know, and if you could
just embrace it and make it the meaning for your life. you think you could
swing it?.................
mhmmm. i see. no, i understand. we're ALL getting older! haha.
mhmmm....................... really. you don't say? she's PREGNANT? how
long have you guys been going out? wow. i feel so out of
touch................... no! hey! man it's cool. you've gotta do what's
right for you!..................
yeah i understand........... that makes sence............. but i wasn't
meaning to incinuate that you were mindless and would just hail my anthem
just because i told you to!........ right........
mhmmm...........well............. you're not INSULTED are you?.... oh good.
you think it's a bit much?........... maybe you're
right..................... mhmmmm...................... "hey everybody,
don't dislike this song, please"?....................... i don't know. it
doesn't quite have the ring of addressing you specifically,
Underground.............. well yeah! your name DOES carry a lot of
meaning!.............. what doesn it mean to me?....... well..............
i don't know................ why are you asking me this,
Underground?.......................... look, you know what? if you don't
have time to "hail this anthem" that's cool! alright? i'll go talk to
Leroy and see if he'll hail it. Leroy usually hails things...........
mhmmmm................. okay, Underground. good luck with that baby!
we'll talk to you later. mhmmm. okay. buh-bye.

conversation suicide rocks! their music is all over
the place --in a good way.... doesn\'t fit into any
specific style of music. And I love my husband who\'s
the Lead Singer/Bass Player and composer! YES, I\'m
biased, but I\'d like them anyway! -LOVE PRINCEZZZ
