Song of the Week 9/5

Rotation 1

Dead Weather, Sea of Cowards - "The Difference Betwen Us"

From the first track to the last, the Dead Weather have put their heart and soul on display. The heavy thump of the bass drum, the thick guitar, along with the intense singing of Allison Mosshart and Jack White makes it hard not to have this album on constant repeat. It is bluesy and gets into your inner musical soul. It was difficult to pick just one track for this song of the week, so I went with the one that starts off a great series. "The Difference Between Us", "I am Mad", and "Die by the Drop" feels like a stream of conscience of pure raw energy.

Rotation 2

Buddy and Julie Miller, True Blood: Music From The HBO® Original Series Volume 2 - "Gasoline and Matches"

Mischief, evil, and a good time. These are just some of the things that come to mind listening to the True Blood Volume 2 soundtrack. One of my favorite tracks, "Gasoline and Matches," is a true americana love tale where husband-and-wife team Buddy and Julie Miller light the world up and take no prisoners.

"You pull my pin and you trip my wire

You come in and set my heart on fire

You knock me out, you rock me off my axis

You and me are gasoline and matches"
