Headphones Recommended: Rock Is Undead!

Okay, here's what you gotta do before listening to this:

1st, make sure your headphone's cord is long enough (you're really gonna shake your booty w/ this, & it'd suck if you accidentally pulled your computer off the desk). If your cord isn't long enough, hopefully you can download & listen via your mobile device.

2nd, grab your favorite beverage (mine's an IPA)

3rd, take off your pants (it rocks to rock out in your skivvies). Note: do NOT take off your pants if you're in a public place, that will likely land your ass in the clink.

Finally, crank up the volume (it ain't rocking out if the volume is set at a safe, considerate level).



Tracklist:
1. Screaming Trees | Time for Light | Uncle Anesthesia
2. Yeah Yeah Yeahs | Gold Lion | Show Your Bones
3. Black Rebel Motorcycle Club | Need Some Air | Baby 81

The Return of Headphones Recommended

After a 3 month hiatus (partially planned/partially unintended) I present to y'all the first of the 2nd stage of music compilation webcasts. This one is intended to be like the very first Headphones Recommended entry, Fave songs From Fave Bands, but with a much, much bigger pool to choose from. Yep, I've procured a lot of music over the past few months. So much so, that there is way more music than I care to admit which I have yet to listen to.

The plan is to publish these a little more intensely than in the past (ultimate goal is weekly). So stay tuned, believe me, this is only the tip of the iceberg.



Tracklist:
1. Ben Harper | Burn One Down | Fight For Your Mind
2. The Spinanes | Kid In Candy | Arches And Aisles
3. Wye Oak | Regret | If Children
4. Xx | Night Time | xx
5. The National | Conversation 16 | High Violet
6. Surfer Blood | Slow Jabroni | Astrocoast
7. Jaymay | Gray Or Blue | Autumn Fallin'
8. Fanfarlo | I'm A Pilot | Reservoir
9. The Pains Of Being Pure At Heart | Belong | Belong
10. Thao & Mirah | Little Cup | Thao & Mirah
11. Spearhead | Rebel Music (3 O'Clock Roadblock) | Chocolate Supa Highway
12. Gorillaz | November Has Come | Demon Days
13. Freelance Whales | Starring | Weathervanes
14. Two Loons for Tea | Blood For Sugar | Looking for Landmarks
15. Mumford & Sons | I Gave You All | Sigh No More
16. Controller.Controller | Rooms | X-Amounts
17. Darker My Love | Blue Day | 2
18. Dead Confederate | The Rat | Wrecking Ball
19. TV On The Radio | Caffeinated Consciousness | Nine Types Of Light
20. Parliament | Unfunky UFO | Mothership Connection

Warning: if you don't like cuss'n, then don't listen.

Cheers!
