Party Shuffle

As usual, Lacey has come up with an interesting game to see where we gravitate musically. Here's what to do:
1. Go to your iTunes library
2. Click on Party Shuffle
3. List the first 10 that come up and tell about them

Here's mine:

1. Ensign, Hold (I discovered these guys my senior year of high school. Great hardcore band with lyrics so positive that most could be printed in the LDS church's ENSIGN magazine.)
2. Amos Lee, Colors (Great folk musician that was introduced to me a couple years ago and I haven't been able to get enough since. Lee's amazing voice, thoughtful lyrics and classic folk/bluesy guitar work is addicting.)
3. The Decemberists, Here I Dreamt I Was An Architect (To me, The Decemberists are the essence of a good indie rock band. Even their major label debut, The Crane Wife, kept the feel of their music real.)
4. Tiger Army, Grey Dawn Breaking (A powerful song, from a powerful album, by a powerful band. Tiger Army are deemed psychobilly, which is basically a keyword for rock-a-billy and punk rock put together. Think Stray Cats meets punk rock.)
5. Bright Eyes, Emily, Sing Something Sweet (This song dates back to 1995-1997 and comes from the album, A Collection of Songs Written and Recorded (1995-1997). A pretty early, raw recording from a very prolific singer/songwriter.)
6. Joni Mitchell, The Circle Game (Joni Mitchell is one of Hallie's favorite Artists and once I began listening to her, it was easy to see why she is spoken of with such high acclaim not only by Hallie, but the music industry at large.)
7. Skid Row, Big Guns (Hands down one of the most awesome glam/metal/rock bands of the 80s and 90s and this song is no exception as to why. Who doesn't love some heavy butt rock guitars, high screamy voices, anthemic choruses and tight leather pants? Come on, you know there's an 80s rock band that is a guilty pleasure for you.)
8. Gorilla Biscuits, Finish What You Started (Hailed as one of the first hardcore bands to bring in melodic vocals to the ordered chaos, CIV and his pals in GB spewed out so many positive hardcore/youth crew classics that their name holds a certain level of untouchable respect. This song gives inspiration to do just what it's title says.)
9. Bing Crosby, White Christmas (Arguably his best work movie and music-wise. This movie is a Christmas tradition for Hallie, her sister and her dad. It was hard to swallow for me for the first couple times, but now I can't have Christmas without it either.)
10. Pavement, Jackals, False Grails: The Lonesome Era (I regret that I just started listening to Pavement over the last several months. I've always heard people talk about them, but have never done any listening myself. It's amazing to see how many bands' sound have been influenced by them.)
