In addition to missing first-rate shows, I've been teaching myself Ruby on Rails, the hot new web programing language that's all the rage these days. It's been awhile since I built an application in my spare time, but that's hopefully going to change. In a couple of days I'm hoping to uncover my latest creation, which most of you will find quite useful. Details to come later.
Anyways, on with mixtape #8...
Mixtape #8
1. Insistor - Tapes 'n Tapes
This band is turning into the 2006 edition of Clap Your Hands Say Yeah!
2. Remora (Single Version) - By The Grace Of God
A throw-back from my hardcore punk salad days.
3. Hot Topic Is Not Punk Rock - MC Lars
My sentiments exactly.
4. And We Danced - The Hooters
Who let this track onto my mixtape?
5. Alone Down There - Modest Mouse
This isn't your little sister's Float On. One of many MM songs that show the dark side of Isaac Brock.
6. You Have Killed Me - Morrissey
Even though I love the Smiths, I never gave Morrissey a fair listen. This new single may change that.
7. Electronic Renaissance - Belle And Sebastian
B&S performed a great live rendition last Tuesday of this out-of-place track from Tiger Milk. It was more than welcome.
8. Friend Of The Night - Mogwai
From the new album of these Scottish emo-instrumentalist masters.
9. Helpless - Neil Young
CYHSY! closed last Friday night with a rocking cover of this classic.
