The Free Babies Will Be Gone After You Take One - Thursday Shuffle

Afterman - Coheed & Cambria.  I stole the hell out of this song.  It was a must have after hearing it on Rolling Stone yesterday.  Fantastic song, one of their best.  Will be buying the album when it comes out in a couple of weeks.

Take A Big Bite - Ratt.  It's all over the place, sinister and chorus laden.  Ratt does both well but haven't been able to combine them.  I like the darker moments of the song best.

Free Wheelin' - Cinderella.  Cinderella is the…

I Hate Bleeding But Love Slamming In Cigarettes - Tuesday Shuffle

Bleeding Muddy Water - Mark Lanegan Band.  Not feeling it.  6.4 of 10.

Cigaro - System Of A Down.  Again, a pile of meh.  6.4 of 10.

Walk Right In - Dr. Hook.  Crimeny.  More ambivalence.  6.4 of 10

Slo-Motion Slam - Infectious Grooves.  Sarsippius' Ark is jam packed with mediocrity like this.  6.4 of 10.

Hate & War - The Clash.  I'm not stopping the shuffle until an 8.0+ kinda jam song shows up.  This isn't one.  6.4 of…

There Are Jewels Under The Old Floor And Hate In The Headlights Of The New Car - Monday Shuffle

Jewel Of Summertime - Audioslave.  Audioslave is a surprisingly proficient funk band.  The new Soundgarden better be spectacular.  (DEMANDS!) They had nearly two decades to come up with tasty beats and killer riffs.  I will be livid if they experiment with funk in any fashion.  

Hate Train - Metallica.  Beyond Magnetic is more enjoyable than Death Magnetic.  There better be a new Metallica album soon or I will throw a tantrum here in my home office.  (DEMANDS!) I might record…

The Futuristic Jet Cannot Descend, Commit A Crime, Love Or Wander - Wednesday Shuffle

The Wandering - Ryan Bingham.  Just picked up the new Bingham CD today.  I was more than a little skeptical after hearing Heart Of Rhythm but it is, overall, way superior to Junky Star.  This song isn't my favorite either.  That may be clouding my overall recollection of that album.  Either way, anything Ryan Bingham is pretty damn good.

Lovecrimes - The Afghan Whigs.  I'm an admitted Afghan Whigs maniac, they are my favorite band, but this version is 1000 times better than…

Swinging At Church Is Like Camping During The Day Or Shooting A Killer - Tuesday Shuffle

Church - Outkast.  8.7 of 10.  nah, this is a full on 9.0 of 10.  Big Boi ain't bad.

Everyday - Dave Matthews Band.  7.8 of 10 and I am ashamed of myself for that.  It does end in a turdish manner.

Six Shooter - Queens Of The Stone Age.  6.0 of 10.  Filler on an otherwise great record.

Swingtown - The Steve Miller Band.  I've heard and enjoyed this song a hundred times but had no idea it was the Steve Milller Band or what the song was titled.  7.6…

Highly successful shuffle!

People Are Going To Some Big Party Tonight - Tuesday Shuffle

Go - Pearl Jam.  Remember when Eddie Vedder was all fat and red when Pearl Jam played this song at the VMA's?  Yeah, that was cool.  There were no fat, red faced rock stars at this year's VMA's.  Hell, there was nothing memorable about the show at all this year.  Young people are terrible.

Movin' Cool (The After Party) - Outkast.  Big ups to Outkast for not bastardizing "the" by spelling it Da or Tha.  Classy move, gents.  Smooth jazz Outkast isn't my favorite.  It's what they…

If The Mississippi Floods, It Will Kill The Lambs Quicker Than A Gun - Monday Shuffle

The Killing Words - Queensryche.  Queensryche should be ashamed of everything they've done since 1995.  This, and all of Rage For Order, is outright goodness though.  You'd think they would have been able to hit that goodness chord once or twice over 17 years of mediocrity.  Nope.  They couldn't do it.  Maybe they'll find their groove now that Tate has been removed.  I have a feeling that he was the poison.

Mississippi Moon - King's X.  Again, a Mississippi moon is…

Johnny Can't Force Me To Wear A Halo - Wednesday Shuffle

Hey Johnny Park! - Foo Fighters.  Punctuation in song titles, especially exclamation points, infuriates me to the cusp of stroke.  Foo Fighters is one of my favorite bands of all time but they don't get a pass when violating this rule.  Jerks.  I'm fairly certain I conjugated that correctly.

1320' - Megadeth.  That apostrophe is not punctuation.  It's an indication of length.  When did Dave Mustaine become a car guy?  He should stick with ranting like a right wing lunatic.…

You've Forgotten That White Haired Albinos Are Viewed As Blondes - Tuesday Shuffle

You Are You Are - Curtis Mayfield.  I'm ashamed that I didn't know Curtis did a disco song.  This is hitting me harder than Kiss' "I Was Made For Loving You".  That damn Curtis was a dirty bandwagon hopper.  I bet he would have pulled for the Yanks and Red Sox in the same year had he not been murdered.  Yes, Curtis Mayfield was murdered.  I have inside information.

Suicide Blonde - INXS.  Great song but I cannot get beyond thinking of my mother singing "Soup And Salad Bar"…
