I'm Back!

Sorry months end is always crazy at the office and sadly this blog is the last priority. Months end is almost over and I was feeling like something peppy this morning. I started with some music from my Desert Island playlist (The White Stripes) hit my Genius Playlist button and let Apple drive the rest of the way. Enjoy.

The White Stripes, "My Doorbell"



Spoon, "The Underdog"



And just for Gavin, I threw in a little of the new Sufjan Stevens. The new album is great. If you haven't purchase it yet, do!

Sufjan Stevens "Now that I'm Older"



Anyways, hope everyone is having a great Snowy Day!

Kings Of Leon is out

Kings of Leon's new Album is out and it acutally lives up to the hype. I'm really enjoying tracks 1: The End 4: Mary and 7: Back Down South. I'll add links for these tracks later.

Album of the week: Black Rebel Motorcycle Club "Beat the Devil's Tatoo" Great companion to the new KOL album.

St. George again, felt like I was just here.

Another road trip to St. George with Jack and Stacey. As always a road trip is an oppurtunity for some new music. The new Kings of Leon single, Gusters , and Pete Yorns new album made the trip fly by. I'm really excited for the new KOL album in two weeks. Gusters album is pretty similar to their earlier albums, if you liked the early albums you'll really like this one. Pete Yorn doesn't disappoint, I really like Precious Stone, the first cut from the new album.

Kings of Leon, "Radioactive". Album comes out soon. (Oct. 19)



Guster, "Do you love me?" I think more videos should include three grown men in long Underwear in public.



Pete Yorn, '"Precious Stone" Yes this is from Ellen, I couldn't find a better copy of hte song to post here. If you'd like a real copy let me know I can probably make that happen.



Dad recommended that I check out The Rescues. Here is "You're not listening"

This Mornings Playlist is brought to you by Coke Zero

So I start just about every morning with a coke zero from my local Maverick. The five minute drive from the gym to my office just isn't enought time to plot out my morning listening. Stopping at Maverick gives a few more minutes to figure it all out. I'm sensing a pattern this morning.. Paramore, Florence + The Machine, and Passion Pit. Female lead singers. Take a listen.

Florence + The Machine, Dog Days Are Over.
Very, very strange video, great song. Don't judge the band by this video, I'm pretty sure they just finished watching Braveheart.



Passion Pit, Little Secrets
Okay, so it's actually a guy singing. Had you not seen the video would you have known? Another album I keep in my car at all times, I fact one of two albums I have saved on my work computer.



Paramore, Brick By Boring Brick
This album was great for the morning run. It almost made me forget that I was watching The Tuxedo. Yup, that Tuxedo, Jackie Chan and Jennifer Love- Hewitt. Truly terrible.
