Indie Rock Playlist, 4/4/09

Here are some songs I've been listening to lately. Some are new, some are slightly old.

1. "Up Against the Wall" by Peter Bjorn and John
Boy likes girl. Girl plays games with guy. Guy listens to this song to comfort himself.

2. "Electric Feel" by MGMT
a feel-good song for the summer

3. "Autumn Sweater" by Yo La Tengo
Favorite Lines: We could slip away/Wouldn't that be better/Me with nothing to say/And you with your autumn sweater.

4. "City vs. Country" by Mobius Band
I'll admit it, sometimes I miss the suburbs. The city is too crowded and impersonal. The singer in this song seems to agree with me.

5. "You're A Wolf" by Sea Wolf

6. "Girl Sailor" by The Shins
Favorite Line: The gutter may profess it's love/Then follow it with hesitation...

7. "Twilight Galaxy" by Metric

8. "Soft Shock" by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs

9. "Firefly" by Saves the Day
Fast-paced punk rock-esque ditty about the heady joy of high school crushes.

10. "Sweet Love for Planet Earth" by Fuck Buttons
For fans of Sigur Ros. Listen to this one cranked up on a really good set of headphones.
