Wow. I thought I was the only one who liked anything off that Izzy Stradlin record...
I love that record! One of my favourite summer listens.
It's awful I've taken so long to getting round to typing this up. This was my tracklist:
1) Au Revoir (Adios) - The Front Bottoms
2) Come Back - White Denim
3) Our Song - Radiator Hospital
4) Shadows - Paisley Grammar
5) The Leanover - Life Without Buildings
6) Little Prince - Andrew Jackson Jihad
7) Standard Bitter Love Song 1 - The Mountain Goats
8) Avant Gardener - Courtney Barnett
9) Get Disowned - Hop Along
10) We Are Beautiful, We Are Doomed - Los Campesinos!
11) Constant Conversations - Passion Pit
12) Besos - Milo
13) Split Pants in Detroit - Open Mike Eagle
14) Pay No Attention - Weenie Hut
15) Au Revoir - Flight of the Conchords
This was the perfect mix for me.
It had a couple of things I was half into:
Courtney Barnett I'd just started getting into. One of my favourite albums from this year now. White Denim I had one record I liked but not the one with Come Back on, so that worked out perfectly. Passion Pit I kind of knew but hadn't listened to in a long time - was a brilliant idea to throw that on and change the pace towards the end.
Some stuff that I'd sort of come across through THS related tangents but never really given much of a listen:
The Mountain Goats, Los Campesinos, Andrew Jackson Jihad
Stuff I have to admit I'd never even heard of:
Life Without Buildings, Paisley Grammar
