Oh man, your Just Missed list reminded me of Dead Weather's "Open Up"! What a great song! Also love Beck's Blue Moon, and Black Keys' Fever in your Just Missed. Onto your main list: I hadn't heard of Ex Cops, so i'm listening to the song you linked (your layout is great, btw! The way the pictures lead into the YouTube link is very well done). I can def hear the Billy Corgan influence! This is really great! Why couldn't he have let Ex Cops take his KROQ AAC spot this year?? And wow Finch returned! I had no idea. What a blast from the past! And to close it out, I love West Coast and Magic.
Looking forward to the EIGHTIES. I Love the 80's. WILL I? WE SHALL SEE! /dumb
Final Masquerade is alright, not their best single, not their worst.
West Coast was disappointing tbh but the whole album was, Born To Die is still my favorite album from her!
Magic is the first Coldplay song that I love since... probably "Speed Of Sound" and I didn't know the Silversun Pickups released something this year
