Three Days Grace - "Now Or Never"

Mr. T

Mink DeVille - "Mixed Up Shook Up Girl"

G-Man

Frightened Rabbit - "My Backwards Walk"

I was a bit mixed up and confused earlier this week. I'm back now. Not wearing my hat on my feet nor my shoes on my head. However, on this warm Summer night, I bring with me this song, which is great for sitting in my garden throne, watching the beacons of the moon appearing one by one

Doug

The Verve Pipe - "The Freshman"

Dano

Rush - "La Villa Strangiato"

PS it's Alex Lifeson's birthday today

Queens Of The Stone Age - "No One Knows"

Travis Scott - "The Plan"

J.B.

Blitzen Trapper - "Furr"

So I try and find tracks that capture a feeling or a moment or a memory. A little sappy but i'm cool with it. Nothing's better than having a song that helps me reflect on camping trips. Rather than your classics which might send you to that 'special' place this is one of my favourite latest tracks, hell it's even full of imagery and nature sounds. If you're really jonesing for some outdoor reflection  without getting out there, go watch some Hinterland Who's Who! As for me, i'll be back in few days..

Slate Unclean

Rob

Death Cab For Cutie - "Cath"

Mr. T

The Coasters - "Yakety Yak"

G-Man

Cauterize - "Choke"

I remember this band back when they were known as T.O.E. Thought they had a ton of potential for a Hard Rock group from Oshawa, Ontario. Looks like they changed their name to Cauterize and broke up shortly after. At least they have this one fantastic album as their legacy. Tons of great tracks on it

Doug

Whitney Houston - "How Will I Know" (Junior Vasquez Remix)

Dano

Big Sugar - "Heart Refuse To Pound"

Jonny HP

Badflower - "30"

Mike D

Juice WRLD - "Wishing Well"

J.B.

The Get Up Kids - "Mass Pike"

Everytime I hear The Get Up Kids or one of their many off shoot "Projects" it sends me to my 20s. While the band saw limited mainstream success in the early to mid 2000s I feel they missed the boat due to the scream-o/pop-punk saturating the airwaves at the time. But, after 2 decades they returned last year and released a new album and their sound has matured, it's still an unfettered pleaser. Enjoy and happy Friday kidz.

Spark, The Tuning Coil

Rob

Elton John - "Your Song"

Mr. T

Clarence Clemons & Jackson Browne - "You're A Friend Of Mine"

Stumbled across this one while climbing down the rabbit hole that is Youtube

G-Man

The Ramones - "53rd & 3rd"

God bless the Ramones. Didn't fuck around. Stuck to a winning formula and rode it all the way to the end. They knew when it was time to end as well. This is off their first album, maybe a bit of a deep track, but still has the punk fundamentals down to a tee. That Dee Dee Ramone bridge though...

Doug

The Beatles - "Dear Prudence"

Dano

Sean Rowe - "To Leave Something Behind"

Jonny HP

Cypress Hill - "Rock Superstar"

Mike D

The Tragically Hip - "50 Mission Cap"

Song for the Toronto fans

Walk Off The Earth - "Red Hands"

J.B.

Hazel English - "I'm Fine"

Pitch White

Rob

Goo Goo Dolls - "Name"

Mr. T

Florence & The Machine - "I'm Going Down" feat. Kid Harpoon

Springsteen Cover. Stumbled across this one on the satellite radio and almost like it more that Springsteen's version. Great use of harmonies!!

G-Man

Jeff Rosenstock - "9/10"

This song has one of those familiar sounds, even if you've never heard it. It could be from one of multiple different decades. Cool sound. Effortless.

Doug

My Kullsvik - "Hello"

Dano

Macklemore & Ryan Lewis - "Ten Thousand Hours"

Jonny HP

Mike D

Aftertaste - "Loud Luxury" feat. Morgan St. Jean

J.B.

Ketch Harbour Wolves - "The Signs Were Everywhere"

Since 2006 this Toronto band has really kept to their roots and have a great all around sound that's only developed and matured. They're less heard of but have kept providing me with some gems. It's music you can take anywhere. This track was actually featured in a great Canadian doc called Nine Rivers. Check it out

Seven Nine Eleven

Rob

Dave Matthews Band - "Ants Marching"

Mr. T

Dave Clark Five - "Catch Us If You Can"

G-Man

The Distillers - "I Am A Revenant"

As a punk fan I found myself going through ebbs and flows of the certain style of punk i'd be drawn towards. More often than not, it's that raw but not basement-produced, aggressive but not incomprehensible, and lightning quick but not under 2 minutes long kind of punk that produced a much required itch to be scratched. "I Am A Revenant" by The Distillers checks all those boxes in a way my words cannot elucidate.

Doug

Warren G - "Party We Will Throw Now" feat. Nate Dogg & The Game

Dano

Clutch - "The Incomparable Mr. Flannery"

Jonny HP

Jack Marks - "Borrow It Gladly Away"

Mike D

Taylor Swift - "Betty"

J.B.

Dope Lemon - "Uptown Folks"

An Aussie brother and sister duo that have a throw back sound. To me it's a perfect clash of California acid rock (see "Honey Bones" their first single) with a story to tell kind of feel. Enjoy on your Summer road trip or with some patio beers

The Common Warm

Rob

Breaking Benjamin - "Diary Of Jane"

Mr. T

Tim Montana - "Hillbilly Rich"

Can't remember where I found this one, but it's something else

G-Man

Sublime - "Boss DJ"

Sublime is both quintessentially 90's and timeless. They are unique, so much so that really no band sounded like them at the time and non since. Blending a plethora of genres and their demographics spanned multiple cultures. Everyone likes at least one Sublime song, and Sublime fans all have different favourites. "Boss DJ" has been in my head all day, it puts my baby to sleep too

Doug

Nouela - "Black Hole Sun"

Dano

Led Zeppelin - "Trampled Under Foot"

Jonny HP

Limp Bizkit - "Rollin'"

Mike D

Sturgill Simpson - "The Dead Don't Die"

J.B.

Neil Young - "Down By The River"

Happy Friday. Hoping to pull off the longest good vibes Song Of The Day. As usual Neil Young's guitar work makes this entire song incredible and i'm betting it will reverberate with you all day long

Death Day Cake

We're back up to six members! Please welcome newest Song Of The Day Friday contributor J.B.!!
Always eager to hear what new songs and vibes different people bring to the list! Seems like he has a lot to say as well! Welcome J.B.!!

Rob

Papa Roach - "Blood Brothers"

Mr. T

Reagan James - "Better Than This"

G-Man

T-Rex - "20th Century Boy"

I've always been interested in what bands and artists inspire other bands and artists. T-Rex is a name that has popped up quite a few times, and they've even been name dropped in some famous songs like The Who's "You Better You Bet" and Mott The Hoople's "All The Young Dudes". Never really understood the hype, I mean "Bang a Gong" was alright I guess. Then I heard the entirety of Electric Warrior. And I stopped wondering.

Spirit Of The West - "Not Just A Train"

Dano

Spirit Of The West - "The Crawl"

Jonny HP

TBD

Mike D

Halsey - "Castle"

J.B.

Shakey Graves - "Doe, Jane"

Definitely and definitively a one man band. Shakey Graves gives that sort of Blue Grass feel some new age muster to a sound that keeps me searching for another gem of his. There's a lot of story telling behind his lyrics and I like this jam the most for it. Happy Friday
