Monday Mix #22

Melody Day - Caribou
Caribou is one of those artists who sit at the back of my collection and don't often get a look. But after putting his latest album on and getting hit by this brilliant opening track, I'm starting to think I should pay more attention.

Come Along - Ice Cream Hands
Ice Cream Hands are yet another Melbourne artist that has entered my consciousness in recent months. Just when I was wondering who they were, their CD arrives on my doorstep. And now, just as I've come to like them, I find out they have a Sydney show soon. Too easy!

The Mollusk - Ween
I'm not really much of a Ween fan, but I probably should be. Every time I put them on, I enjoy what I hear, even it is a bit odd. This song is one that has managed to stick with me.

Girls Like That - Custard
A friend recently did a DJ set and we had fun pulling out the old Hottest 100 volumes to find some classics. Just be thankful I didn't choose Pauline Pantsdown.

Unless It's Kicks - Okkervil River
Okkervil River are another of those frequently-raved-about bands that just don't do it for me. I enjoy them, and at times (like this song) REALLY enjoy them, but in the overall sense, they just fail to have me well and truly convinced.
