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).

1. Screaming Trees | Time for Light | Uncle Anesthesia

Headphones Recommended: The 12.10.10 Soundtrack

It is no secret that I have many issues with iTunes and their iPod shuffle. A blog post all in itself for sure. However, every once in awhile the tracks that surface from the pool of 650 - 725 (limited to an 8GB phone unfortunately) are in sync w/ what I want/need to hear. This happened to me on 12-10-10. All but 5 tracks are essentially my porch smoking, bus riding, & walking soundtrack from the 10th. ...& of those 5 exceptions, 2 were from the 9th.

What I am truly excited about this particular compilation is all albums included were acquired w/n the last 2 weeks. Thanks to the SPL, I pick up 13-18 new albums a week. Not to mention, Amazon.com's MP3 store has dozens of free samplers from dozens of labels. Between those 2 sources, there has been plenty of new music to explore. Exploring that culminated into an incredible mix of music on the 10th.

It was a good day.

2) Them Crooked Vultures | Interlude With Ludes | Them Crooked Vultures
3) Bright Eyes | Gold Mine Gutted | Digital Ash In A Digital Urn

Just so you're warned, some songs contain words which people who don't live in the real world might find offensive. So if you don't like cuss'n, then don't listen.
