Thursday Random Eight (02/03/2011)

The Afghan Whigs - Now You Know: High energy (and high misery) track that leads into the dark, slow ending of Gentlemen.

Chainsaw Kittens - Savior Boyfriend Collides: Loud and fast, if not a little rough, from the first Kittens album.

Robyn Hitchcock - Wind Cries Mary: Robyn likes his moldy covers.

The Paper Chase - Don't You Wish You Had Some More: Challenging the Whigs for the most dismal song of the Random Eight. They may win simply for the off-tune music.

Peter Holsapple and Chris Stamey - My Friend the Sun: Obviously they never half-blindly drive I66 at sunset.

Asian Dub Foundation - La Haine: Loud and fast dub from this fun band.

Robyn Hitchcock & The Egyptians - Dwarfbeat: Robyn likes his goofy songs too.

Perfect - Flap: The short-lived Tommy Stinson band platforming his post-Replacements material.
