List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they're any good, they must be songs you're really enjoying now. Post these instructions in your Live Journal along with your seven songs. Then tag seven other people to see what they're listening to.
1. Streetcar by Funeral For A Friend. This is one of those emo bands whose songs often seem flat and generic to me, but I really love this tune. It's got such a catchy and sad chorus hook that I can't stop playing (and singing) it.
2. Salty Eyes by The Matches. I just discovered these guys, and they have a unique sound and a great theatricality to them.
3. Ghost of York by As Tall As Lions. I jut got this album this week and it's fantastic. Beautiful stuff.
4. The City That Reads by The Graduate. More emo, simple, yet good. There is also a sweet acoustic version on their free EP available from AbsolutePunk.net. Also, note that this is not a download but a link to the song on thesixtyone, which you all should check out as it's how I found half of these songs in the first place.
5. Ode to LRC by Band of Horses. I almost got to see these guys play in January but missed the boat on getting tix in time. They're an amazing band and if you haven't heard them yet, check them out.
6. Delilah by The Dresden Dolls. This is one of my go-to songs when I'm down. So much better than that other song about Delilah that's been all over the airwaves for the past year.
7. About Last Night by The Mascara Story. I swear this band would not have broken up if their name weren't so godawful stupid. Great upbeat punk-pop fuzz.
8. The Light by The Album Leaf. Every once in awhile an album will have an opening track that just catches you off your guard with its sheer beauty. This is one of those. Since it has no words, I throw it in as an eighth song for free. :D
I tag cruelest_month, notorium, rabid_fangrrl, paperninja, davyn, lazy_writer , and bombasticduck.
