I’ve been told that one of the big appeals of country music is the storytelling. Here The Raconteurs tap into a bit of that to in this closing track to their second album, Consolers of the Lonely.

#songoftheday: 3 Doors Down – Kryptonite
As a comic book nerd in high school, I thought this song was absolute genius. It’s also another example of that classic 90’s Alt-Rock accent that so many rock singers of the era had (Creed, Seven Mary Three, Live, etc…)
#songoftheday: J. Englishman – More
A deep cut from Big Shiny Tunes 5.
#songoftheday: Eddie Vedder – Hard Sun
When I saw Into the Wild, my experience with Eddie Vedder’s music was pretty limited at best. I feel like the fact that the film’s soundtrack doubled as his first solo album, would have blown my mind if I was as big of a fan then as I am now.
#songoftheday: Panic! At The Disco – Northern Downpour
The final single released by Panic! At The Disco before Ryan Ross and Jon Walker split off to form The Young Veins.
#songoftheday: The Dandy Warhols – Bohemian Like You
One of my best, and oldest friends is getting married today.
This one’s for him.
#songoftheday: Jet – Move On
Half the fun of listening to Jet’s debut album was picking up on all the not so subtle homages to other songs. A little Iggy Pop here, a little B.T.O. there, etc…
As far as this track goes, I’d say that it’s more their take on the country genre as a whole than any particular song.
#songoftheday: Tegan and Sara – Living Room
I’ve really never heard a Tegan and Sara song that I didn’t like.
#songoftheday: Sum 41 – Heart Attack
Some music for a punk rock Canada Day.
#songoftheday: Weezer – The Angel and the One
Weezer have a habit of closing their albums with some pretty great songs, and this closing track from their Red Album is one of my favourites.
