Aural Sensitivity Training: August 1, 2011

Back for more schooling are you?Yeah... you know you like it.


The B.S Report, 7/27 with CM Punk

I have all the respect in the world for Bill Simmons, who not only crafts a hilarious and intelligent sports column, but hosts a hugely successful podcast. Simmons is a long-time wrestling fan, so when I heard he brought in WWE Champion (one of two) CM Punk in for an episode, I knew I had to listen. CM Punk has an extremely unique personality and brings an unadulterated view of the business. Any WWE fan should download this podcast.




The Guild, "Game On"

After the hot-sauce that was their first music video "Date My Avatar," popular web-series The Guild couldn't resist coming back for more. This Bollywood-inspired tribute to gamers cannot be missed. Also, enjoy looking at Felicia Day.



Metric, Fantasies

These Canadian electro-poppers need to be on your iPod, STAT. Emily Haines' vocals are brilliantly entrancing on this 2009 release. Songs you need to listen to: "Help, I'm Alive," "Gold Guns Girls" and "Gimme Sympathy."



Collective Soul, "Heavy"

One of my favorite songs ever. An oldie but a goody, this track kicks off with some side-switching guitars and never lets up on the rock. It's awesome to see these guys are still kicking and producing music.



Sophe Lux, Waking the Mystics

So imagine Queen... fronted by Kate Bush. Now name them Sophe Lux. This is that band. Do I really need to go any further? Best tracks: "Lovely Girl," "Little Soldiers Of Time," "Lou Salome."

It's late. Load up your iPod and get to bed.
