Hey, I tell you what, country is great for summertime. 'Georgia On My Mind' by Willie Nelson? Lovely tune.

My last post made this point, but in lieu of my most recent Mediafire thread post, it bears repeating.

Queens of the Stone Age are fucking ace.  In particular, they are fucking ace for three things more than anything else: summer, smoking, and sex.

Hang out with your girlfriends/boyfriends, get high, and fuck like bunnies all summer.  I guarantee you QOTSA will make it all feel right.

As for summer albums..since the weather's gotten warm, I find myself turning to the Skatalites a lot for some reason. Mostly that "Foundation Ska" compilation.

Slap guitar would fit, I think. Not really into that kind of music, though, so I don't know albums or artists (other than Andy McKee).

Electric Wizard definitely isn't summerish for me, or at least doesn't give me more of a summer feeling than Kyuss. Summer is such a great time for stoner rock, I'm actually looking forward to it just so I can play Welcome to Sky Valley extremely loud on the late afternoon. Electric Wizard's vocals are just not as warm and fuzzy as Garcia's.

Brant Bjork's solo career is also perfect for summers. It's very easy to listen to and it's desert rock, Jalamanta should definitely not be excluded from a topic like this. When it comes to summer nights Miles Davis is the man, especially his album Sketches Of Spain.

Any Velvet Underground album will also do, aswell as early (more bluessy) Tom Waits.

Whoops forgot about Neil Young's On The Beach.

Dude, there is nothing wrong with Andrew Bird.

I don't know if it's been said already, but I am going to chock up anything by The Dodo's and Annuals' Be He Me.  "Brother" is such an awesome way to kick off an album.

All I've been able to listen to since it came out is "Dirty Versions," the new We Versus the Shark album.   It's certainly one of the best noise rock records of the year and it's on a small local label that consistently puts out high quality rock music (Hello Sir Records).  Go check out their myspace or whatever and listen to the new stuff as it is awesome.

For unexplained reasons, I get dancier and more ambient as the summer rolls on.  Here are some choices:

CTRLer - This is Hardcore


Ambassador 21 - Justified Thirst for Blood


Architect - Lower Lip Interface


Stendeck - Can You Hear My Call / Faces



HIV+ - Overdose Kill Me (despite the name, they're very close to Dowload in sound)


Meg Lee Chin - Piece and Love (I'll never forgive the populace for not making her high empress of female artists...c'mon, put out another album, it's been eight years already)


Autoclav 1.1 - Broken Beats for Broken Hearts (good breakcore)

That reminds me, I don't know shit about the rest of the album it's on, but "Island in the Sun" by Weezer is pretty fucking excellent for summer music. Same goes for "Santeria" by Sublime.
