Somehow it’s already Friday. You’ve done it! Now you have a playlist to get you through the final leg of the day. Or the first leg. Or some sort of leg .. the centipede-leg of the day.

Look, I don’t come up with the analogies here. Sometimes I don’t do anything but write minor variances of things that I’ve been doing for the last ten years. How many more times can I say “buy music to support bands, listen to good music and play music loud”?

I guess I just did that. Do that.

Playlist:
Great Divide – Grand Electric
Model Society – Deaf Radio
Lights Out! – Dead Sara [Official]
A Lonely Chord – Tsunami Bomb
Social Waste – Cellar Twins
Never Say Goodbye – Nightingale – Music & Videos
Killer – Ruby the Hatchet
Deathwish – Striker
Under The Sun – Shumaun
Through Stars – Unleash The Archers

Yet another episode where I continue to purposefully not introduce myself despite it being right here on the show page. Enjoy a bit of time travel as we spice up the show in all the right places with some absolute favourites, while also revisiting some newer tracks that clearly need more spins.

Also we’re coming up on the next anniversary of the show, which is kind of absurd in itself. I’ve decided regardless of where I go with things, at the very least, I’ll provide a bastion from the Christmas music at least for 2021. From then on… well, who can say.

ANYWAY here’s a playlist.

Playlilst:
Little Green Bicycle – Grand Electric
Into The Blue – The Joy Formidable
Hypnotic / Gimme Gimme – Dead Sara [Official]
Battles – The JB Conspiracy
Last One Standing – Icon For Hire
