For Your Consideration...

I have a habit of making themed playlists and as I was reviewing albums for the year-end review I came up with a few amusing ones to share. These are EP length and include only songs in my iTunes library and released in 2010.

Directionally Challenged EP

Giving Up The Gun – Vampire Weekend

Burn It Down – Awolnation

Left The World Behind – Greenhornes

Thrown Right At Me – The Tallest Man On Earth



Classic Hindu Elements EP

Salt Of The Earth – Bettye LaVette

Winter Winds – Mumford and Sons

Cool Water – Johnny Cash

Fire-Power – These New Puritans

Destroyers Of The Void – Blitzen Trapper


Nth Degree EP

ONE – Yeasayer

Ten Cent Pistol – The Black Keys

100 Years From Now – Karen Elson

1000 Years – Portugal. The Man


Three Little Five Little Songs EP (this one was influenced by my new role as a father, but don’t buy this one for your kid. It takes a much different tone after the first track)

Five Little Monkeys – The Little Kids Band

Five Little Rooms – Menomena

Five Little Sluts – Avi Buffalo



And finally, The Coyote Doc EP

Room Full Of Eyes – Dillinger Escape Plan

Handshake Drugs – Wilco

Butt-house Blondies – Ariel Pink’s Haunted Grafitti

  1. Awesome post. Considering your apparent disgust for Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti, I have a recommendation for The Coyote Doc EP II:

    Justin Townes Earle - 'Mama's Eyes'

    Man Man - 'Man Who Make You Sick'

    Black Mountain - 'Wild Wind'

    Thoughts?
