Song of the Week 10/24

Rotation 1

Plumtree, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World- "Scott Pilgrim"


Don't dis the soundtrack, they are albums too. I know that many times it can be just a jumble of songs, questionable even if the tracks go together and do they make sense with the movie they are suppose to be accompanying. However without seeing the movie, I cannot get this album out of my car. Every time I listen I fall into another song. My latest obsession is the second track aptly named "Scott Pilgrim", Plumtree has that quintessential indie garage rock thing down. Simple guitar, straight forward rhythm, and uncomplicated lyrics.

Rotation 2

The Strokes, First Impressions of Earth - "Heart in a Cage"

Thanks to my recent dive back into garage rock and my killer Pandora station, I was reminded just how much I like The Strokes with this 2006 song. Between the attitude in Julian Casablancas' voice and the crazy guitar chords, this song is flat out ridiculous.
