Song of the Day #355 - aren’t you even glad they caught you chugging your own medicine?

My boys in What Made Milwaukee Famous are back!  While this isn't my favorite song of theirs...or even in the top 5...I think it shows some promise for the new album that is to come in January.

What Made Milwaukee Famous - Gone and Done It Now

ps - the new amc dine-in theater in marina is no alamo drafthouse, but i liked it...eating dinner and drinking while watching a movie is awesome.

Song of the Day #354 - i got some good talk, but not enough game

Straight outta 1956!...

J.D. McPherson - North Side Gal

ps - i find interesting that there's never really been an uproar about how how i met your mother depicts the majority of women

Song of the Day #353 - and all that you know of this is what you have heard

Seriously hooked me on first listen....

Maps & Atlases - Fever

ps - i dreeeeaaamed a dreeeeeam.....

Song of the Day #352 - sucking my emotion, you just don't care

One second it feels like Vampire Weekend, the next it has a touch of Modest Mouse, and then it's something all it's own...

Reptar - Sebastian

ps - this weekend i learned i can still recite most of billy madison

Song of the Day #351 - you're not my girl, you're just tired

Felt like something a little older today.  LOVED these guys at the tail of end of high school and well into college, but haven't really revisited them in some time.  They were the "other" big rock band in Canada in the late 90s after Our Lady Peace, but never really broke whatsoever in the US.  A lot of great stuff across their albums...and Matthew Good went on to do some good solo stuff, though I haven't listened to anything new since like 2005.  This one's a pretty sweet rocker.

Matthew Good Band - Anti-Pop

ps - excited to start reading 'ready, player one'

Song of the Day #350 - you let the devil in your home

Love the build and the instrumentation....seems like it'd be a hella awesome live song.

Typhoon - The Honest Truth

ps - texas is not good at basketball

Song of the Day #349 - i'm removing myself from the queue

We have all been losers...

The Belle Brigade - Losers

ps - we should have all of thanksgiving week off.

Song of the Day #348 - take off all the thoughts of what we've been

I've almost put this on here like 26 different times since June.  Figure it's about damn time...it's a good little ditty.

Atlas Genius - Trojans

ps - great showing today, pats

Song of the Day #347 - and i'ma be okay, you would probably bore me anyway

It's basically just a single verse and a sort of chorus, but that's all the albino rapper needs to get you hooked....

Brother Ali - Forest Whitiker

ps - sometimes you feel like a nut

Song of the Day #346 - let me hear that song

I've always really dug this song.

The Rapture - How Deep is Your Love

ps - zack attack!

Song of the Day #345 - i've been going out and trying to stay fit

Seeing them on Friday, and this song is super addictive, so....

Walk the Moon - I Can Lift a Car

ps - i think tonight is prime for lots of sofa and tv

Song of the Day #344 - you hate my love because you’re dead without it

The ladies behind the great sample on Chiddy Bang's 'Manners' give us, what I think, is one of the best dance tunes of the year.

Icona Pop - Good For You

ps - i'm so behind on life

Song of the Day #343 - i'm gonna buy a hundred pounds of catfish

The best song Blur never wrote?....

Masters in France - Playin' With My Friends

Song of the Day #339 - go back, go back

For anyone visiting this space on any sort of regular basis, I apologize for the lack of updates lately.  Here's a good one to try and get things back on track....

A Silent Film - Danny, Dakota & the Wishing Well

ps - i get to go to the dentist for a crown tomorrow.  i'm old.

Song of the Day #338 - you gotta promise not to stop when I say when

Since it's one of those "milestone birthdays" and all...   my favorite song from my favorite band...beautifully acoustified.  The best part is that the real version of this was playing on my alarm clock radio when I woke up this morning.

Foo Fighters - Everlong (Acoustic)

ps - foo fighters acoustic in chicago is still the best show i've ever been to.

Song of the Day #337 - have you confused your power with mine?

'Marathon' never did a lot for me, but this one is great in a kind of Camera Obscura way.
