[Gary]

Siouxsie & The Banshees-"Paradise Palace"

 

[Beast]

Beach Boys - Cottonfields

The Beach Boys - Cotton Fields (Single Version)

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

Bruce Springsteen - The River (on a street in Copenhagen)

Awesome. How come nothing cool ever happens when I watch street performers?

Like the stupid Danes even appreciated that.

 

[Gary]

Red Sparowes-"Buildings Began To Stretch Wide Across The Sky, And The Air Filled With A Reddish Glow"

 

[KOAB]

Brother Ali - Champion (remix)

 

[Kinetic]

Richard and Linda Thompson - I Want To See The Bright Lights Tonight

This is just the best thing ever. I hadn't bought an album new in a few years prior to picking this one up the other day in Seattle, so enamored was I of the version I d/led.

 

[Kinetic]

Also, I'm a sucker for shitty classic rock. I actually get sort of excited when this song comes on the station at work.

Styx - Fooling Yourself (The Angry Young Man)

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

Yes...I've recently got a bit into '70s Styx and why they don't have the same kitsch appeal amongst the under 30 set that Journey does is a bit baffling. My only guess is that (for the most part) they don't have cheesy videos to go along with the songs like Journey.

 

[OldSchoolWrestling]

One problem i've noticed with Styx is that with Dennis DeYoung gone, they pretty much refuse to play the songs where he was the lead singer. Tommy Shaw mostly sings the songs from back in the day where he was the lead singer. Journey on the other hand has always used singers who tried to sing like Steve Perry and are performing all the songs Perry sang.

 

[Agent of Oblivion]

Swans - Failure

It's probably the season change right now, but I've been wanting to listen to some serious downer shit.

 

[pbone]

Oh man, if you want some serious kill yourself shit, get Low's The Great Destroyer. You could just pick up the one song "On The Edge Of" and still want to fucking eat a gun. I've never heard someone play an instrument that made me want to die like the guitar on that song.

 

[Youth N Asia]

We're stuck with a shitty generic rock station at work, and this "Aint No Rest For The Wicked" bx Cage the Elephant is the worst goddamn thing playing now.

Duly noted.

 

[the max]

Loading up the ipod for a vacation and realized I only had Clutch's 2007 album on my ipod. That was immediately rectified and now the house is echoing with the greatness that is their self-titled work. Rock N Roll Outlaw just came on.

And the ipod has all of their work on it now. Going to a be good plane ride.

 

[HarleyQuinn]

Stumbled upon this guy: Soundmachine who has a lot of vocal tracks. Really neat to hear some of them.

 

[Gary]

David Bowie-Ashes to Ashes

I'm obsessed with the albums Scary Monsters (And Super Creeps) and Lodger at the moment.

 

[Byron The Bulb]

Annie 'Songs remind me of you'

Possibly my new favorite song of 2009.

 

[Sesquipedaliantique]

Don't Stop is much better than Anniemal. I suppose that's what taking half a decade to record an album does for you.

 

[Haws Bah Gawd]

This one is going to get me hell around here. Not willing to spend my cash on it, I downloaded CREED's newest album. It's......not.....bad. Not bad at all in fact. Mark Tremonti can still tear it up on a guitar at least.

 

[Gary]

Red House Painters-Katy Song

 

[bigolsmitty]

Big Boi - Fo Yo Sorrows (Ft. George Clinton & Too Short) *NEW 2009*

 

[Byron The Bulb]

Solange Knowles covering The Dirty Projectors.

stillness is the move-darjar

whoa

 

[Garth]

07 ~ Bandoliers

Them Crooked Vultures - Bandoliers

After seeing them back in August I've been really excited for some studio recorded material. Hasn't disappointed.

 

[Czech]

Minus the Bear - Into the Mirror

First time I've actually heard a Minus the Bear song. I like it a lot. Sounds like a cooler Interpol.

 

[Byron The Bulb]

YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.

Gaga is the illest. She should collaborate with Jim Steinman.

 

[Byron The Bulb]

Hey here's a cool Hercules & Love Affair remix of the above song. It's not as good as the original but it's still pretty groovy.

Minus the Bear - Into the Mirror

First time I've actually heard a Minus the Bear song. I like it a lot. Sounds like a cooler Interpol.

That's probably my least favorite song of theirs. It's a mishmash of stuff that really isn't about them: a beat virtually lifted from a Ratatat record, a weird Mars Volta guitar breakdown, that girl, whatever. There's better.

 

[Czech]

Well, I liked it. :[

YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.

This is way better than the radio version. Cooler lead vocals. If this doesn't make you want to break out into a big choreographed dance number, then, well, I suppose you're very lucky. It's an awkward feeling. I practically have to tether myself to my laptop to stop myself from doing big clunky dance moves during that chorus.

Set to pictures, "Jilted John" by Jilted John. Really hilarious little song.
