Monday Morning Music Shuffle - Changing Everything Mix

Tweet #E2TG

I am ridiculously short on time, and I will be out of town the next two days so no shuffles until Thursday.  I am going to be quick, but if you have more time than I do, please give these great songs the attention they deserve.  I found videos for most of the songs.  The only one I didn't find was the Mothers song, and I will put a link to their bandcamp page so you can listen and/or buy.

UPDATE:7:05pm CST - I actually ran out of time to get this posted earlier.  As I said, I will be off of blogging for a couple of days, but I'm sure you can keep yourselves entertained.

Tuesday Morning Music Shuffle - Return to Sender Mix

Let go - Some music news (feeling like Kurt Loder):

Bon Voyage (or how ever you say that in Italian) to The End Men has they embark on their 2012 European tour. 

The Nearly Deads are on MTV part of MTVu Freshmen 5.  Go here to vote for them and push them over the top. 

Reminder that Sci-Fi Romance's album The Ghost of John Henry drops today.  See my recent review with all the details for how to grab your own copy.  And then go grab your own copy (digital or CD formats).

Now to the shuffle:

First up, we have Chevrolet from the 2006 Re-release (with extras) of Gather in Song by Damien Jurado.  I am a huge Damien Jurado fan, and I love this song. 

 

A video of a different Damien Jurado song cause I couldn't find one for Chevrolet...

Next we go deeper into the fabulous Heart of Texas album by 2011 Band of the Year finalist Taco Land. Today, we have Find My Run which shows off this band's sound which manages once again to confound expectations of what an album called Heart of Texas by a band called Taco Land would sound like while at the same time meeting or exceeding those expectations. 

The video is for Wonderful Rain off the fabulous Heart of Texas album. Couldn't find Find My Run

By a technicality, the third song should not be included in today's shuffle.  Due to some technical problems, the MP3 didn't play, but I had to post anyway.

Coldplay honored Adam Yauch (MCA) with a piano-led cover of The Beastie Boys classic (You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party!).   Check out the chilling, slow cover and go grab the Boys classic Licensed to Ill album. 

 

And finally, we got one of the new tracks by Stomacher from their forthcoming album.  Moonlight Blues finds the band continuing to explore the darker reaches with their usual flair for the melodic. The new album, Clara, is set to drop in June.  Check out some of the tracks as well as the band's back catalog - here.
