The Mix v23.0

I love, love, love the first song of this Mix. It's from the upcoming solo effort by Pulp frontman, Jarvis Cocker. Jarvis, if by some quirk of fate you happen to read this blog, please hear my plea: release "Fat Children" as a single!!! Don't listen to the industry assholes who tell you it's "too English." Just release it. Trust me, the Yanks will eat it up with a spoon. Repeat after me, "Fat children took my life. Fat children took my life..."

Several good alt rockers, including Zoe, The Fratellis, The Fever, and The Killers. Okay, I'm a little late to hit The Killers's bandwagon, but this really is an exceptional record. I tried to pick a track you won't hear on the radio.

The track by David Bazan is brash and refreshing in a way neither Neil Young nor Pearl Jam can afford to be. I make that comparison because both Young and Pearl Jam made political albums this year. While Bazan hits several political topics, I wouldn't call it a "political" album. Still, the song "Backwoods Nation" depicts America much more accurately than Vedder or Young's liberal underpinnings will allow. Truly scathing stuff in this song.

After all the alt rockers, we need something a little more laid back from Wise In Time. Do you like noise? I've got some noise for you. Check out Non's selection. Keep a sense of humor while listening to Infected Brain's "I Will Kill You." There's something inspired about the Cookie Monster saying "I suffocate your soul!" We wrap up with some grungy goodness from Flipper.

Mix time: 43 minutes
