Morning Benders – Cold War
Nice and loose. Has hand claps which are a summer essential.
Spiritualized – Death Take Your Fiddle
This is from Songs in A&E which I have been listening to a lot lately. Some of the songs with Fire in the title are probably more typically "summer," but when I heard this song I sat up straight.
Dan Deacon – Paddling Ghost
A Dan Deacon concert can make you as happy as summer and I imagine the ghost is paddling a canoe.
Cheeseburger – Easy Street
This is rock N roll, with that nice ol capital middle n. It is sloppy and fun. You could really fuck or fight to this music, but what ever you do to it you've probably had a couple beers.
Laarks – All the Words you Can’t Say Right
Dance to this.
Jeffrey Lewis – Roll Bus Roll
This song is all about moving on and that is something summer can always help you with.
Daredevil Christopher Wright – Animal of Choice
They just recorded this song for their next album. They did it all in analog, but I'm posting this song because it really gets into my nuts and guts and stirs them up for me.
Mirah – Don’t Die in Me
Get sad to this. Dance to this. Get happy to this.
Mae Shi – Run to Your Grave
This is probably my favorite song of all time. Sarah puts it on to cheer me up.
LCD Soundsystem – I Can Change
Neuroses have never made you want to shake your ass like this before. This album was made in LA where it is summer all the time.
Big Boi – Shine Blockas
When you go out in the sun, ya gotta put your armor on. Thanks for this one Big Boi, your entire album is going to help the summer bounce by.
The National – Conversation 16
Zombie love songs to counter act vampire box office love shits.
Wolf Parade – Dear Sons and Daughters of Hungry Ghosts
This could be almost any Wolf Parade song, but this has always been my favorite.
Neil Young – Revolution Blues
Since I'm not going to spend the $100 on tickets to see the Joe DiMaggio of rock I'll just listen to his albums all summer, really loudly.
