Music Mondays Meets Hot Picks
Lots of good stuff to discuss in this week’s edition…
Most Picked:
Mutemath - Typical (KFMA, KRXF, KRZQ, KTCL, KWOD, WLUM, WRRV, XTRA-F)
The Cult - Dirty Little Rock Star (KERX, KFTE, KJEE, KXRK, WEND, WEQX, WJSE)
Silversun Pickups - Well Thought Out Twinkles (KCCQ, KFRR, KXRK, Waitt Radio Networks, WSUN, WTGZ, WXEG)
Blaqk Audio - Stiff Kittens (KDGE, KFTE, KQRA, KRAB, KRZQ, WHHZ, WTGZ)
Against Me! - Thrash Unreal (KRZQ, KTEG, WJSE, WKZQ, WLUM, WRRV, WSFM, WSUN)
I had no idea that the Cult had recorded any new material. I will have to track that one down. I can’t say enough about how much I love the Against Me! (Full review of the album later this week.) And the SSPU are all over the place. Looking good on the charts as well.
KCCQ/Des Moines, IA - Jamie Marchiori (PD)
30 Seconds To Mars - A Beautiful Lie
Rilo Kiley - The Moneymaker
Silversun Pickups - Well Thought Out Twinkles
New Rilo Kiley makes me happy.
KFMA/Tucson, AZ - Greg Rampage (MD)
Mutemath - Typical
Smashing Pumpkins - That’s The Way
The Starting Line - Island (Float Away)
The Pumpkins song is definitely my fave of the new album.
KFRR/Fresno, CA - Jason Squires (PD)
Paramore - Misery Business
Rise Against - The Good Left Undone
Silversun Pickups - Well Thought Out Twinkles
More Paramore is good. These are all good in my book.
KMRJ/Palm Springs, CA - Dwight Arnold (MD)
Monster In The Machine - Savior
Papa Roach - Time Is Running Out
The Rentals - Little Bit Of You In Everything
The Rentals are back (with a new lineup), fresh off their residency at Spaceland in L.A. They are about to go on tour with Copeland and (one of my faves on Eenie Meenie ) Goldenboy.
KRBZ/Kansas City, MO - Jason Ulanet (APD/MD)
Editors - An End Has A Start
Interpol - Pioneer To The Falls
Ah, these picks are back to what I expect from this MD. I got a good listen of this station while I was in KC and it had some good moments.
Waitt Radio Networks/Modern Rock - Polychronopolis (PD)
Coldwar Kids - Hospital Beds
Hot Hot Heat - Let Me In
Silversun Pickups - Well Thought Out Twinkles
New Hot Hot Heat! That makes me happy.
WJSE/Atlantic City, NJ - Shawn Castelluccio (APD/MD)
Against Me! - Thrash Unreal
The Cult - Dirty Little Rock Star
Manchester Orchestra - Wolves At Night
That Manchester Orchestra album is pretty good, which now makes me regret my decision to blow off seeing them (twice!) when they were opening for Brand New.
WNNX/Atlanta, GA - Elliott Garstin (Programming Asst.)
Editors - An End Has A Start
Rilo Kiley - The Moneymaker
VHS Or Beta - Can’t Believe A Single Word
VHS or Beta is dance punk? (That’s what their wiki says....)
XTRA-F/San Diego, CA - Capone (MD)
Mutemath - Typical
Strata - Stay Young
VHS Or Beta - Can’t Believe A Single Word
Uh huh.
P.S. Bonus in the listen section is a Sonic Youth cover from Copy, Right? which is my favorite covers blog. Enjoy!
