According to local rock radio (one station), none of the following albums from the past year or so exist. There is no room to play any of these songs in between playing "radioactive" 95 fucking times an hour.

One hit wonder band, too obscure for airplay around here:


These guys broke up for 15 years, so no need to play any of their new shit, just play one of their hits from the 90s in between your danceable indie folk-polka fusion pop tune.




Wait aren't these guys dead?


lol yeah right


#1 album in 56 countries. I think I heard "Mind Your Manners" played for a few days.


New albums from Clutch, Alter Bridge, Rob Zombie, Deftones? Too obscure, play more Fitz & the Tantrums.

To be fair, "I Sat by the Ocean" is apparently in their rotation, after they reach Imagine Dragons and Franz Ferdinand critical mass. But probably only because of the show here next month. (sold out, QQ)

I know I know, I'm just getting old and bands like Bastille are just too heavy metal for me.

Some people still make honest, real country music. And it's awesome:

My go-to song when I get a new set of headphones to test them out


Listen to it on headphones...amazing(even better if you download a HQ/lossless version.

I thought I was on the wrong station, so I selected it again and no, this wasn't actually One Direction, but another scorching hot rock and roll hit being played on our most badass (and only) new-rock station.



When I got home I put Appetite for Destruction on repeat for 12 hours, did ten lines, beat up a hooker and cried.

Some pop-rock for Kreugen's dispair! To add insult to injury I landed on it because I heard another of their tune in a romantic comedy!

Couple years old and I mostly hate Drake. But this shit keeps popping up on Pandora at work. I like it.

Within the first 30 seconds he uses autotune, and rhymes "bitches" with "bitches". Quality music

Modern rap is just shit. Rap peaked around 1995 and it's been going downhill ever since. There was a slight bump up again in the late 90s when Eminem and JayZ came on the scene, but even they suck now.

Tool is probably my favourite band and I love Puscifier as well (Maynard's other band), but I had not listened to A Perfect Circle (another Maynard side project) since University. Picked up the latest compilation album for them on a whim and I absolutely love it.

Just spent 20 minutes listening to the first few seconds of several dozens of songs just to find which one the very beginning of that Perfect Circle made me think of. It's with great relief that I found the answer and may alleviate the pain who found themselves in the same conundrum:
