Fountains Of Wayne - Stacy's Mom
Okay, this new share feature on YouTube is going to bring this blog back to life!

Peter Gabriel - Shock the Monkey
My only complaint is that this is the single version, and not the longer album version. This was seriously badass for its time.

Moster Magnet - Space Lord
I was really surprised to see that this song is as new as it is. It belongs somewhere in the 90s, between Urge Overkill and Alice in Chains.

Digital Noise Academy - Melting Inside
Fond as I am of this song, I'm even more fond of the concept. Digital Noise Academy is made up of the following people: Ken Andrews, Charlotte Martin, Justin Meldal-Johnsen, Sharky Laguana, Tommy Walter, Fernando Sanchez, and Jordon Zadorozny. The Noise Academy consists of them assembling songs in home studios, FTPing to a server, then another one downloads it and adds a track. Ken Andrews (Failure, Year of the Rabbit) and his wife Charlotte Martin are masters of the killer riff. This is a sign of many more badass things to come!

Spoon - Don't You Evah
I skipped out on a chance to see these guys this summer, I hope in the end I don't regret it.
Cover Songs Worth Examining: Faith No More - Easy
I remember seeing these guys open for Billy Idol at the Patriot Center and waiting for a punchline that never came.

Black Grape - Dadi Wuz a Badi
Out of the dust (angel dust?) of the Happy Mondays came Black Grape in the early-mid 90s. And this was always my favorite song by them. Danceable and badass at the same time.

Carbon Leaf - Mellow Tone
I'm not a massive fan of Carbon Leaf, but the songs I do like by them, I really really like. Just now, walking down the halls of Shirlington House, one of me neighbors is blasting this song and it made me go looking for it. This is a homemade vid that's really interestingly done with some very creative elements.

Secret Machines - The Road Leads Where It's Led
Space rock shakes me to my core, and these guys are probably my favorite space rock band these days.

Mike Doughty - His Truth is Marching On
I don't know if anyone out there pulls chord progressions that snap me to attention any better than Mike Doughty does. Love the low sludgy bass.
Primus - Jerry was a Race Car Driver
I think I like this version even more than the original. Love the guy in the front with the orange wig for no particular reason.

Three Awesome Songs By Failure
Words can't express what a huge fan of these guys I am / was. The Tool-like sound and mix is not a coincidence, Ken Andrews, Failure's lead singer, collaborated and produced many of Tool's albums. Failure's cut from the same cloth, but I think they're more melodic. Enjoy!
Another Space Song

People in Planes - Last Man Standing
The official music video for a song by a band that is quickly becoming one of my favorites.

MuteMath - Typical
Yes, this will be on this year's Outer Banks Mix, thus the tag. Quite possibly the first-ever band with a keytar that doesn't suck. Love the video.
