The Odd Papillon Gets Away From All Danger By Crawling - Tuesday Shuffle

Crawl (remix) - Anthrax.  Adding the word "crawl" to my list of words that always make for a song good.  So it's now cocaine, feathers, cigarettes and crawl.  That's a lot of c words.  Not the pejorative c word, just words that start with c.  Maybe I should add the pejorative to the list as well.  That's a dandy of a word.

Papillon - The Twilight Singers.  Hey!  I feel good when I roll too.  This is a top 5 song that features the banjo.  Blackberry Belle was so much better…

It's Better To Float On Your Cherrished Souvenir Than Drown In The Giant's Footsteps - Wednesday Shuffle

Souviner - Troubadour Kings.  Tom Petty style goodness.  8.3 of 10.

Footsteps - Pearl Jam.  Neil Young style goodness.  One of the best on Lost Dogs.  8.9 of 10.

Better - Guns N' Roses.  This song is better than anything on the Illusions. (Controversy!) 9.2 of 10.

I Keep Coming Back - The Afghan Whigs.  It's the worst song on Gentlemen but still... (Ellipses!) 8.3 of 10

Float On - Modest Mouse.  I'm surprised and delighted by every…

Peaches Awaken With The Warmth Of The Sun But Can Be Casualties Of Rocks - Tuesday Shuffle

Carve A Peach - His Clancyness.  This is worse than Way Cool Jr.  Apparently being a mumble mouthed dullard with the ability to ape Fountains Of Wayne is the same thing as being talented.

The Forest Awakes - David Byrne & St. Vincent.  As a nod to my inner hipster, I bought this at Amoeba Records a few days after it was released.  Had to save the purchase for an LA trip.  Really tho, this is an outright phenomenal album.  Go buy it at Amoeba.  It'll sound…

Take A Picture Of The Strange Mambo Dancers Watching The Boards - Monday Shuffle

Dashboard - Modest Mouse.  Disco made by crazy people.  That's the best imaginable combination.  9.2 of 10.

The Big Picture - King's X.  Hmm, King's X probably does ballads better than anyone.  9.1 of 10.

Mambo Mexicano - Y La Orkestra.  I was in a hurry to hate.  Turns out I appreciate.  7.8 of 10.

3 Strange Days - School Of Fish.  Just realized I'm missing several songs from both albums.  Amazon just fixed that for me.  9.2 of…

What Are Cowboys If Poisoned Men? - Thursday Shuffle

Modern Day Cowboy - Tesla.  9.7 of 10.  A top 10 song of the 80's.

Take It Easy With The Smoke, You Might Scorch Something When You Get Too High - Tuesday Shuffle

Hope and Smoke - Kiven.  I can kinda see what they want to do.  Seems like they want to be a math rock/jazz band with odd time signatures and tones but it just ain't working.  They just sound like a low rent Incubus instead.  They have a long way to go before they reach This Town Needs Guns level of good.  A real producer could straighten their asses out.

Tales Of A Scorched Earth - Smashing Pumpkins.  Hmm.  The shuffle was one song off.  It should have been 1979.  Never liked…

Hush. Far Away Fountains Of Steel Will Synchronize Empathtic Eyes - Monday Shuffle

Fountain And Fairfax - The Afghan Whigs.  I've gone out of my way at least 3 times to take a picture of this intersection.  9.0 of 10.

Far - Coheed & Cambria.  I dig it in a big way, man.  Year Of The Black Rainbow is their best album (Controversy!)  9.0 of 10.

Hush Me - Hooka Hey.  Interesting enough to make me want to seek out more.  Kinda.  Don't care for the rambling 2nd verse.  8.0 of 10.

Steel That Sleeps The Eye - Baroness.  Chanty…

Seek & Destroy - Metallica.  9.1 of 10.

1nce Again - A Tribe Called Quest feat. Tammy Lucas.  8.9 of 10.

Move Bitch - Ludacris.  4.0 of 10.

Glad to have hip hop heavy shuffle for a change even if that Ludacris song is insanely dated and horrible.

There Is A Schism In Prison Doctrine That Will Provide Nothing But A Shift Toward Siva - Thursday Shuffle

Nothing But Love - Dwight Yoakam.  3 Pears is a fine album.  8.8 of 10.

Prison Sex - Tool.  Scary title, scary good song.  9.0 of 10.

Junesong Provision - Coheed & Cambria.  Hints at future greatness.  8.8 of 10.

Siva - Smashing Pumpkins.  Elicits nothing worthy of a remark.  7.5 of 10,

Her Daughter Always Eats Cold Peas And Studies Constellations Before Saying Goodnight - Tuesday Shuffle

Daughter - Pearl Jam.  This song was popular when I started drinking.  It makes me overly emotional and prone to irrational outbursts.  "You don't know me" was particularly effective back then.  I should start drinking again.  I was a joy to be around.

Pea - Red Hot Chili Peppers.  This is just slightly better than Way Cool Jr. and Hitler.  It's the Mussolini of horrible songs from bands I usually enjoy.

Farewell And Goodnight - Smashing Pumpkins.  I dislike…
