-
"Pete, King of the Detectives" - Big Black
Tight & compressed guitars, another shallow psychological study, more whining lyrics repeated 'til they gain weight & it all means more than this sounds like.
-
"Mexicla" - Queens of the Stone Age
Great guitars, and Coke with real sugar, sex, death, and gasoline!
-
"Ladyflash" The Go! Team
Coolness! An incredible collection of Pop hooks, from Northern Soul, American Soul, Doubled Drummers, and a singer straight outta the Wall O'Sound!
-
"Gnome the Second" - Gong
Weirdo Hippy Space freakout, mercifully only 26 seconds long. It only sticks around long enough to amuse, not long enough to annoy.
-
"Black Mass" - Les Baxter
From my 3rd or Fourth favorite H.P. Lovecraft-adapted movie, The Dunwich Horror, starring Dean Stockwell & Sandra Dee!
-
"This Here Giraffe" - The Flaming Lips
Typical Lips, but I like the understated birdcalls & tasteful xylophone.
-
"Along the Banks of the River" - Tortoise
Moody, Jazzy soundtrack music, I can almost name the movie it comes from... but it doesn't.
-
"Lonesome Cowbuy Burt" - Frank Zappa
"Hi Burt!" This and "Half a Dozen Provacative Squats" seem to be the only tracks from 200 Motels that turn up on shuffle.
-
"Evil Brain Rejector" - Lee "Scratch" Perry
This sounds like two little Jamacans are standing on your shoulders rapping about totally different things, at the same time, over old soul records.
-
"Faded from the Winter" - Iron & Wine
Quiet guitars, subdued voices singing that always seems to be saying something sad even when they're not (although they are here).
