Ex Hex, "Hot and Cold"

There's an extremely 80s feel to Ex Hex. I get a false sense memory of sitting in the back of Monza when we pick up the college radio station at Washington State University, and being intrigued by hearing something a little different from the usual classic rock.

Weezer, "Butterfly"

Where are we at on the "the only good Weezer album is Pinkerton" cycle? Seems like we're due for a reaction to it at this point.

Jimmy Eat World, "The Middle"

I've played this song in Rock Band so much that I just instantly see floating colored dots in front of my eyes when I hear this. At least, I hope that's what it is.

Mustard Plug, "Yesterday"

OH GOD THEY DIDN'T GO AWAY

The Black Keys, "Hard Row"
