Congratulations, Hayden! And yes, their CDs are generally quite good.
'The Cautionary Tale of Numero Cinco'
Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
Congratulations, Hayden!
Hee! Kitty!Gee.
Thanks, y'all!
I'm working on a playlist that still isn't coming together for me. I decided to sum it up as Epic (even though that isn't quite right). Loud, preferably happy, fast, pounding (an evolution of my speeding ticket playlist that never panned out)
This is what I have so far:
All These Things That I Have Done - The Killers Keep the Car Running - Arcade Fire Dreams - Brandi Carlisle All Float On - Modest Mouse Liztomania - Phoenix Shadowplay - The Killers Down Boy - Yeah Yeah Yeahs Drumming Song - Florence + the Machine I Want Blood - Empires Wake Up - Arcade Fire Inní mér syngur vitleysingur - Sigur Rós Maps - Yeah Yeah Yeahs Cobra Style - Teddybears Dog Days are Over - Florence + the Machine Mr. Blue Sky - ELO When You Were Young - The Killers No One Takes Your Freedom - DJ Earworm Wolf Like Me - TV On the Radio Rebellion - Arcade Fire
Any suggestions or recommendations?
Brighton Rock by Queen!
Epic, fast, unbelievable guitar playing. Check it.
Moving by Suede would also be great. Very propulsive. You can hear it here.
Uh, do you need something more contemporary than that?
Contemporary is not a must, that just seems to be where I'm finding existing music in my library (my evolving tastes through the years, and I tends towards moody and slow in general. I have lots of music I can slit my wrist to, but not a whole lot for jamming).
Well, those should definitely work on an epic level.
Finding those songs on YouTube I just discovered Corinne Bailey Rae's cover of "Steady As She Goes" (Raconteurs orig.) Cool!
Na Na Na or several other tracks off of My Chem's new one, Danger Days. (can't believe I was the first to post that)
Also, The Devil and Maggie Chascarillo by Lucero.
