Hey Hey, Glad Girls Only Want To Get You High

Guided By VoicesIn January 2005, Pimps of Gore started posting his personal top 100 favourite Guided By Voices songs, with a little blurb and the mp3 for each song. He got as far as posting his songlist from 1 to 50 and has only recently completed the list with songs 51 to 100. For your convenience I've linked to the individual posts below. The first 50 songs are no longer available for download, but the second 50[ie. 51-100] are, so get to it!

>>1-10, 11-20, 21-30, 31-40, 41-50, 51-80, 81-100

Eskay Everyday[via The Underrated Blog via a comment at But She's On Fire] spoke with Broken Social Scene's John Crossingham and Justin Peroff for an upcoming article which will be featured in the next issue of Underrated. While we wait for the full article, Eskay Everyday posed this question to the guys: "If you could add 5 more members to the band, who would it be...?" One of the guys' answers: "Sean Penn." The scary thought is that I think they're serious.

I'm excited for the Guillemots show at the Horseshoe Tavern on March 15th, having previously expressed my new love for them. out the other(via BadmintonStamps) is equally thrilled about Guillemots, and points out that the band have today, Valentine's Day, offered 4 free tracks available for download(registration required). The songs are only available until the end of the month and more info on the tracks can be read here.

The Concretes have a new website! It doesn't seem to be working as of the time of this posting but when the site's back up check out their new music video for their new song "Chosen One". For an alternate link you can view the music video here(via MilkandCookies).

Mocking Music have one of their better themed mp3 posts up right now, this one focusing on songs with the word 'heart' in it.

Here's a torrent(registration required) of a live show of Feist recently on January 28, 2006 at High-Noon Saloon in Madison, WI. [via Largehearted Boy]

To whet our appetites, and for those of us unwilling to spoil the excitement of the official CD release by downloading an album leak, Rock Star Journalist has an mp3 of a live performance of Neko Case performing with Calexico one of her new songs "Maybe Sparrow", the studio version which will be included on her new CD "Fox Compressor Brings The Flood". The recording is from a show at the Filmore in San Francisco on July 16, 2004.
