Monday Morning Music Shuffle - Remnant Mix

Another week started...  Hope all if well in your worlds.

This week, we continued to highlight some of the more recent additions to our MP3 player. 


First up, we have an excellent country/garage band from right here in Music City USA. Those Darlins play lovely, gritty music for the new South. We have the title track off their latest album, Screws Get Loose. From what I understand, the band first met at the awesome Southern Girls Rock & Roll camp, which makes this an excellent time to give a shout out to that outstanding organization.  We had the chance to speak to them briefly at Record Store Day and we've had the chance to read up on them since.  SGRRC have been around for ten years, and they provide a valuable and empowering service to our community.

   

Next up, we have Asbury Park, New Jersey band The Parlor Mob with a song from their 2008 album And You Were a Crow. The song today is Can't Keep No Good Boy Down.

 

And finally, we dig deeper into the Sondre Lerche album we recently found at the Goodwill store.  Faces Down came out in 2002, and our song today is called Sleep on Needles.

Thursday Morning Music Shuffle - Retractable Redaction Mix

CORRECTION:  In a previous post, we stated that Justin Bieber and The Jonas Brothers founded The Quarrymen, the band that later became The Beatles.  This was not correct.  As many of you wrote in to tell us, Justin Bieber joined after the name change and was never a member of The Quarrymen. (source: wikipedia). Ear to the Ground regrets this error.

Got a full plate today, so let's get to the Shuffle:


First up, lets get our 90s Power Pop groove on with Velvet Crush a Rhode Island band.  Today's song is Weird Summer which comes from their 1994 Matthew Sweet produced, Teenage Symphonies to God album.

The next track is from an upcoming mixtape called, The Wild, The Innocent and the TV Shuffle. It's a song called, I Wonder Who She's Kissing Now from the San Diego based duo, TV Girl.

(a previous release from TV Girl)

Next is a live version of classic UK punk song, Ever Fallen In Love (With Someone You Shouldn't've) by The Buzzcocks from their second album, Love Bites. People from my generation may recognize the song which was covered by Fine Young Cannibals.

The Black Jesuses are a side project of members of the band The Parlor Mob.  Roll Call Blues is today's track from that project.(h/t and link to Popa's Tunes)

Finally, we have a track from a compilation called, Generations I: a Punk Look at Human Rights.  It's called The Alien Song, and it features The Red Aunts along with punk goddess, Exene Cervenka (as Exene Cervenkova).
