This is something of a 2008/2009 buzz-band-kill compilation. I'm so buzzed by these songs, that in six months, these bands will either be a lot more famous, or almost completely forgotten. Pop music is so wonderfully fickle. Oh, also there is a slight Spring/Summer theme running through the mix.
1. Air France - "June Evenings" - More perfection from Sweden
2. Weird Tapes - "The Heavens" - Their EP was one of the best of club-ready selections of 2008
3. Bridez - "Live 4ever" - One of the rawest pop bands on the West Coast, negative SF queens
4. Dent May - "Meet Me in the Garden" - Areil Pink + Dean Martin
5. The Pains of Being Pure at Heart - "The Tenure Itch" - [wistful sigh of pleasure]
6. Jimmy Buffet - "A Pirate Looks at Forty" - Dads everywhere know
7. The Virgins - "Private Affair" - Another great song about doing blow with old-money teens
8. Wavves - "No Hope Kids" - Biography of a generation via distortion pedal
9. Television Personalities - "Part Time Punks" - Beat Happening in London 1980
