Mixtape Vol. 2
April 28th, 2008
No comments
When I started this project last week, I thought that I would be adding 4-5 songs a week of new material and the old songs would just fall off the end of the mix. However, I somehow came up with 12 “new” songs and had to replace the entire list. I say “new” because some of these songs definitely came out before some of the songs I posted last week. Therefore, they aren’t all necessarily new since last week, but they are new to me and still pretty recent.
You can purchase this mix (or individual songs) from here: 
Ladytron – Burning Up
Album: Velocifero
This record isn’t due out until June but I found a good track on myspace and thought I would share.
The Submarines – You, Me, & The Bourgeoisie
Album: Honeysuckle Weeks
Can’t recall where I first heard this song, but a really great track. Due out mid-May.
Nine Inch Nails – Discipline
Album: The Slip
Free single compliments of Live 105. Expect the full album in 2 weeks.
Tokyo Police Club – Your English Is Good
Album: Elephant Shell
Really liked their last album and lots of people like their new album. I think the new one sounds a bit monotonous.
Flight Of The Conchords – Business Time
Album: Flight Of The Conchords
Absolutely hysterical comical duo that I first saw on Comedy Central and now they’re huge on HBO.
Death Cab For Cutie – I Will Possess Your Heart (7 Edit)”
Album: I Will Possess Your Heart (Limited Edition 7)”
First single off their new CD. These guys seem to be a love or hate band for most people. I love them.
Tapes ‘n Tapes – Hang Them All
Album: Walk It Off
Saw these guys a couple years back and the opening band, Cold War Kids, went on to better things. But Tapes ‘n Tapes is still making some good music.
Cloud Cult – Journey Of The Featherless
Album: Feel Good Ghosts (Tea-Partying Through Tornadoes)
They remind me of The Flaming Lips and I really like this new CD. Apparently they have three previous discs that are even better. They are going to be at Bottom of the Hill on May 13th if you like them. I’ll be there.
Gnarls Barkley – Run (I’m A Natural Disaster)
Album: The Odd Couple
Should have had this track last week. Don’t know how I forgot it. Good sophomore CD from this duo.
Elbow – Grounds For Divorce
Album: The Seldom Seen Kid
Found this band through Filter. I honestly don’t like the new CD, but this one track is pretty good. Pretty cool website though.
Sons & Daughters – Darling
Album: This Gift
Go Scotland! Another band from Glasgow. Heard this band a year or more ago on the radio. Their new CD is VERY good and a lot more mature than the last one. They are going to be at GAMH on May 2nd and I’ll be there too.
The Duke Spirit – The Step And The Walk
Album: Neptune
Heavily promoted band on Filter. Decided to look into them and liked this song a lot. Didn’t listen to anything else of theirs.
