Beefy Back Hands With Feathers - Monday Shuffle.

Shake Hands With Beef - Primus.  Pretty much My Name is Mud without the genius.

 

Come Back - Pearl Jam.  Slow paced song that sounds too much like early 60's rock.  Meh.

 

Thru The Eyes Of Ruby - Smashing Pumpkins.  What I imagine the Wyld Stalyns sound like when they're trying to hard to be profound.  

 

Feathers - Coheed & Cambria.  Any song named Feathers is the tits.  This song has a very RATT-ish riff and Winger chorus.  They make it…

My Brothers Mirror Was Knocked Down 66 Times. Friday Shuffle.

High Times - Jamiroquai.  Vastly underrated funk outfit.  Seriously, I'd put them up there with Parliament.

 

Knock Me Down - Red Hot Chili Peppers.  Another funky jam!  Guess it's turning into Funk Friday.  I'm okay with that.  I bought Mother's Milk the day after I heard this song.

 

66 - My Jerusalem.  My buddy Lee did an Afghan Whigs cover album a few years back.  This is one of the tracks.  My Jerusalem did a fine job turning 66 into a 70's flavored R&B…

No Shuffle Shuffle

Breaking format today so I can take in all of The Big Road by The Joy Formidable.  Can't think of another female fronted band that I've liked this much.  Top to bottom, great album.  More than I can say for the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

 

Seriously, you need to own this album.

I'll Hug You Arnie For Complete Action - Tuesday Shuffle

The End Complete III: The End Complete - Coheed and Cambria.  Lots of Faith No More influence here.  Scream-o shit going on without the shitty scream-o shit.  Wait?  I do like this song.

 

Piece of Your Action - Motley Crue.  It's a live track so I'm blessed with hearing Vince half ass it for four minutes.  In most other forms, this song is more than listenable.

 

Arnie - Primus.  Uninspired Primus is still better than most anything else.  Remember this…

Warriors Cutting Rope and Jamming On Bongos - Monday Shuffle

Rope - Foo Fighters.  The new album is fan-fucking-tastic.  This song is coming close to being my number three all time favorite Foo Fighters song.

 

Dream Warriors - Dokken.  For a forced theme song to a shitty horror movie, this is one.  It just never resonated with me.  George does bring a decent solo though.

 

Cut You In - Jerry Cantrell.   I think I may have called this my favorite non Alice In Chains Alice In Chains song.  The horns are spot on and perfectly…

Goodbye Forever, Enemies of God. Thursday Shuffle.

Don't Care - King's X.  Recently picked up Dog Man on Amazon, had it on tape when it came out.  Damn, this is their opus.  Really dig this song, the guitar is spot on.

 

Twilight of the Gods - Helloween.  Criminally overlooked 80's metal band.  Think of a cross between Queensryche and Megadeth.  It works.  I think they still produce new music, I may have to make a purchase this weekend.

 

The Gentle Art of Making - Enemies.  "Happy Birthday, fucker" is one of my…

Brothers On Bummed Out Planets - Wednesday Shuffle

Brothers In Arms - Dire Straights.  Bluesy guitar and synth dont go together like peanut butter and chocolate.  Meh.

 

Not Tomorrow - Living Colour.  LC exploring blues and progressive beat structure.  I could have used more zazz though.  

 

Bummed Out City - Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros.  I love Joe Strummer and hate that I didn't pay attention to his work outside of the Clash until years after his death.  The guy was a craftsman.  

 

The Beast -…

Once 18 was a lifetime of plans. Tuesday Shuffle

Tonight, Tonight - Smashing Pumpkins.  Love me an epic song.  This one is done well too.  The positivity is nice.  Awww.

 

Of The Girl - Pearl Jam.  Not enough going on here to make me pay attention.  Binaural was kind of a clunker for me.

 

Plans - Dinosaur Jr.  Well shit, I just got out of the gym and I'm not liking this down tempo stuff.  I will be seeing DJ in a couple of weeks though!  If they stay away from the ballads it will be the…

One Of The Last Arizona Talismans Edition - Monday Shuffle

The Talisman - Iron Maiden.  Plenty of gallopy goodness for the average Maiden fan.  Anyone else would hate it.  I dig it plenty.

 

Dynamite Steps - The Twilight Singers.  Could'a been on Blackberry Belle, almost out of place on the album of the same name.  It's also simple song filled with complex tones, lots of layers.  I've heard this song several times but this is the first time I've really listened to it.  Damn, I should have payed attention earlier. 

 

One…

Dusting the Sun's Ashes - Thursday Shuffle

Cropduster - Pearl Jam.  An afterthought song.  Doesn't seem like they put a whole lot of effort into it.  Too much Phish style jamming.

 

Ashes and Ghosts - The Cult.  Beyond Good and Evil is The Cult's best album.  This song is pure rock.  Aggression, melody, spooky, epic.

 

Mayday - Tomahawk.  Damn, two of my favorite 00's songs in a row.  It's weird but accessible.  If I had a regular job I'd turn in my notice, AS OF TWO FUCKING WEEKS AGO!

 

The…

Priciest Feathers in the Universe - Wednesday Shuffle

Price I Pay - Jane's Addiction.  huh?  Too short, must be a lead in to another song.  The downside of the shuffle I guess.

 

Universal You - The Cult.  You can't go wrong with a song that has "swagger" in the lyrics.  Like the bass out front.  Rare for a Cult jam.

 

Around the World - Red Hot Chili Peppers.  The rappy RHCP was kinda played out when this song came out.  Never got in to it all that much.

 

Take Me With U - Sharon Jones and the Dap…

Destroyed Centuries Coming - Tuesday Shuffle

Centuries of Sin - Probot.  Grohl does metal just as well as he does rock.  This shit is the domination.

 

Seek and Destroy - Metallica.  Some live version I snagged from their website.  Live music never translates well.

 

40 - U2.  Havent heard this song in at least 20 years.  Bono wants me to sing for Jesus or something.  Meh.

 

Death of Me - Red.  I almost like this song.  The 00's brand of rock singer just grates on me though.  It's like they…

Friendly Dissent In The Company - Thursday Shuffle

Gonna See My Friend - Pearl Jam.  I really like the production on this song.  Crisp.  Otherwise, it's obnoxiously silly.  My 9 year old nephew says similar things.

 

Dissident - Pearl Jam.  I was in college when this came out.  My grunginess cannot be questioned because of it.

 

Bad Company - Five Finger Death Punch.  These guys want to be Metallica so bad that it's an embarrassment.  There are much better 70's songs to cover, songs that dont sound exactly like…

Crazy Gorilla Arms and Butts - Wednesday Shuffle

Guerrilla Monsoon Rap - Talib Kweli.  Love it when rappers name check wrestlers.  We're not so different, me and Talib.

 

The Ballad of Johnny Butts - Sublime.  Catchy goodness.  I think the college kids still listen to Sublime.

 

Crazy - WASP.  One of the newest WASP songs that has turned into one of my FAVORITE all time WASP songs.  It's great when the elderly rockers with pendulous man tits break out something more than worth while.  Big ups to Blackie and his…

Late Sons with Shady Cars Tuesday Shuffle

Wild Hearted Son - The Cult.  The Cult at it's finest.  One of my favorite tracks.

 

Casting Shade - Shadows Fall.  Another Shadows Fall song I'm not familiar with.  So far sounds very Metallica-esque.  Sanitarium style.  Not bad.

 

Symphony No. 3 in E Flat Major, Op 55 - Beethoven.  Beethoven always brings the goodies.

 

Sooner or Later - King's X.  It has what I like about King's X but for some reason I don't get it.  On the upside, Dogman will be…

Photographs of Aliens, Pigs and Men - Monday Shuffle

Surfing With The Alien - Joe Satriani.  My official soundtrack to Super Mario Bros. 2.  Fantastic album, fantastic song.

 

Photographs and Memories - Jim Croce.  Sappy at it's best.  Jim Croce always gets me right in the gut.

 

War Pigs - Faith No More.  It's probably blasphemy but I prefer this version over the original.

 

Sublime - The Twilight Singers.  I dont care for Joseph Arthur's falsetto.  He ruined their first appearance on Jimmy Kimmel…

Smoking Chaos Friday Shuffle.

True Love Way - Kings Of Leon.  Nice way to start a shuffle!  Nothing but praise.

 

Falling Down - Queensryche.  Kinda scattered but still one of their better post Empire efforts.

 

Breakout - Foo Fighters.  A bit too poppy for me but still good.

 

Dialectic Chaos - Megadeth.  Probably the best song on End Game.  Great riff.

 

Smoke - Ben Folds Five.  Emo.  Not feeling particularly Emo today but the song is solid.

Where Is Thomas' Lovely Chair Edition - Thursday Shuffle

Suicide Solution - Ozzy Osbourne.  This song has never made me want to kill myself or drink to excess.  I have gotten a boner listening to it though.

 

Where Are You - J Mascis.  One of the better tracks on his solo album.  Not as "jammy" as some of the other songs.  Pretty good harmonizing on this one and an electric solo.

 

Underwater Love - Faith No More.  Hinting at what's to come with Angel Dust.  VERY good song!

 

The Chair - Living Colour.  LC…

God's Golden Age of Freewill - Wednesday Shuffle

Sweet Child O' Mine - Guns N' Roses.  People say they get tired of this song.  People are liars.  Favorite bass line ever.

 

Oh My God - Sixx A.M.  It's growing on me.  I dig it.

 

Freewill - Rush.  I was just thinking of my ultimate prog playlist and this song was on it.  Geddy can rock it.

 

You My Flower - Forcefield On.  A cover of a decent Afghan Whigs song done not so decently.  The hipster vocals kinda piss me off.…
