Song of the Day #695 - my money's dried up like the l.a. river

Sort of what would happen if Airborne Toxic Event went up tempo Nine Inch Nails...

Dark Waves - Diamonds in the Dark

ps - crj just doesn't get enough love

Don't you go cheating on me.

I figured Dave would be a good person to bring us back in from the long break...

Foo Fighters - St. Cecilia

ps - happy 2016!

Song of the Day #692 - i gotta feeling we're gonna be alright

Sounds like Grace dropped The Nocturnals and went a bit more pop...  If this is the result, and there's more like it, I can live with it...

Grace Potter - Alive Tonight

ps - bummed to not have seen her at the fonda this past week.

Song of the Day #691 - visualize it

I'm always late to the EDM party...and I'm not really sure I even wanna be let in....  But sometimes it's fun to just stand outside the door and do a little dancing.

Galantis - Peanut Butter Jelly

ps - this song is making me hungry.

Song of the Day #690 - first thing they teach us, not to give a f**k

Must admit...  I've never really known The Roots all that well beyond a few songs and their residency on The Tonight Show.  Regardless, I know this one...and it's a goodie.

The Roots - How I Got Over

ps - mr. robot is the best new show of the summer.  deutshland 83 is the 2nd best new show of the summer.

Song of the Day #689 - make that sound, make you seize

Song of the Day #688 - i remember when we swapped names and i thought maybe you’d stay and try to out-drink me

I've probably already put too many songs from this album on here, but man....it's good.  This one has been in frequent rotation recently.

Catfish and the Bottlemen - Cocoon

ps - very disappointed in the hollywood bowl last night (or fall out boy's sound guy...not sure who's to blame)....unacceptable.

Song of the Day #685 - whole lotta love is coming on the radio

So happy these ladies have reunited....first time Veruca Salt has had their original lineup since Eight Arms to Hold You in the late 90s.  Just crushing it with this one.

ps - i'm cooler than you...i think.

Song of the Day #683 - i wanna taste love and pain, i wanna feel pride and shame

The Struts - Could Have Been Me

ps - how much does anthony jeselnick hate being on last comic standing?

Song of the Day #682 - space invaders, arbitrators, instigators coming for your crown

Maybe the most hipster band I've ever seen live...at least looks and stage personality-wise...  but that don't mean they can't make some good tunes.  Peaches, anyone?

In the Valley Below - Neverminders

ps - i don't have a random thought at the moment other than the fact that i don't have a random thought

Song of the Day #681 - everybody sing

Meant to post this last month when I saw Bob at The Largo (great show), but instead, I probably didn't post anything.

I really wish more pop music was this good...

Powers - Loved By You

Song of the Day #678 - and i don't care at all, i'll drink some alcohol

Song of the Day #677 - suddenly, suddenly, it's a disaster
