Saturday Random Twenty...brought to you by Sunday!

OK - so I started this post on Saturday. Then I got distracted.

Anyway, this week, the recently played list is dominated by the two albums I got today.

The new Sleater-Kinney was an interesting first listen at the gym. It's much more free-form than anything they've done. This path was predicted by 2002's One Beat, so I guess it's not really a surprise.

The new Spoon album - I'll be honest, I've only given a couple of tracks the most cursory of listens. But it's supposed to be fantastic.

Anyway, links to the tracks from each record below.

Ten Most Recently Played

  1. Steep Air - Sleater-Kinney - The Woods (5.6 MB MP3)
  2. Rollercoaster - Sleater-Kinney - The Woods
  3. Entertain - Sleater-Kinney - The Woods
  4. Modern Girl - Sleater-Kinney - The Woods
  5. Jumpers - Sleater-Kinney - The Woods
  6. What's Mine Is Yours - Sleater-Kinney - The Woods
  7. Wilderness - Sleater-Kinney - The Woods
  8. The Fox - Sleater-Kinney - The Woods
  9. The Two Sides Of Monsieur Valentine - Spoon - Gimme Fiction (4.4 MB MP3)
  10. The Beast And Dragon, Adored - Spoon - Gimme Fiction

The truly random pull from my total library is a bit more interesting. Everyone knows (and loves) Stacy's Mom. I'd guess that the U2 track is also very well known. Otherwise, this is a collection of some pretty fantastic songs, including a couple of tracks by really big artists (REM, Billy Corgin).

I'll serve up the Zwan song because I actually thought that album was pretty good even though it really fell off the radar after it came out. Enjoy.
