Rob

G-Man

Pantera - "Cowboys From Hell"

It's impossible for me to hear this song and not be whisked back to the Summer of 2006. My first car that was officially mine....Fixxxer. Black '95 Sunfire. Loved rippin' around town in that thing despite how much of a bucket of bolts it was. It was mine. Paid straight cash. It had an updated soundsystem with one of those late 90's early 2000's CD players that lit up blue and orange. Naturally I had to make a mix CD to commemorate my first no-fucks-given-mobile....Fixxxer Mixxx!! Track one? Pantera and The Cowboys From Hell

Doug

Doug

Jonny HP

Korn - "Good God"

When Music Can Crumble Memory...

Rob

Hey Rosetta! - "Kintsukuroi"

Mr. T

Brewer & Shipley - "One Toke Over The Line"

G-man

Social Distortion - "Reach For The Sky"

Was talking with Rob today about Living Legends. It's bullshit when an artist dies and everyone acts like they've always been their biggest fan. Where was this love while they were still with us? That's why I like honouring Living Legends from time to time. Social Distortion is on that list for me. Always been a huge fan, mad respect for what they've done for punk music and Mike Ness is a certified individual/bad ass. Bucket list band for sure

Doug

Ed Sheeran - "New Man"

Dano

Radiohead - "I Might Be Wrong"

Jonny HP

Kim Mitchell - "I Am A Wild Party"

Of Storms and Summer's End

Rob

Foo Fighters - "The Sky Is A Neighborhood"

Mr. T

Kat Dahlia - "Crazy"

G-Man

Sunny Day Real Estate - "Seven"

Widely considered to be the first big "Emo" band and their debut album Diary came out in 1994. The list of bands these guys inspired is nearly endless. Just great energy in this song. And a dynamite chorus!

Doug

The Killers - "The Man"

Dano

Rage Against The Machine - "Vietnow"

Jonny HP

Brand New - "The No Seatbelt Song"

Special Guest Pick

Lady Madonna

The Strokes - "12:51"

Jonny HP's lady

The First Songs Of September!

Rob

Angels & Airwaves - "The Adventure"

Moist - "Breathe"

Mr. T

Poolside - "Harvest Moon"

G-Man

Sugar Ray - "Answer The Phone"

Not sure what these guys did to get such a bad rep nowadays, guess it's the whole Nickelback stigma all over again. Sugar Ray had some great tunes and great Summer time tunes. It may be September but im sure theres some Summer left.

Doug

Afroman - "Because I Got High"

Dano

Die Antwoord - "I Fink U Freeky"

Jonny HP

Wintersleep - "Amerika"
