Muse

Muse is one of those bands with a very unique style. It draws a lot of comparison to Radiohead, but I for one don't see any huge similarities. They have some pretty amazing melodies and lots of variation between songs. Check em out!

10. Time Is Running Out
9. Take a Bow
8. Hysteria
7. Knights of Cydonia
6. Map of the Problematique
5. Starlight
4. Falling Away With You
3. Supermassive Black Hole

Maroon 5

Here's a band that has a special place in my heart. They were the first pop group I ever became a "fan" of. Before Maroon 5, I'd just listen to whatever happened to be on the radio. Hope you like them...

10. Makes Me Wonder
9. Goodnight Goodnight (hear the Kryptonite riff?)
8. Can't Stop (their hardest song)
7. Wake Up Call
6. Sunday Morning
5. Harder to Breathe (the song that put M5 on the radar)
4. She Will Be Loved
3. This Love (is piano punk a genre?)
2. Must Get Out (oh the lyrics!)
1. Won't Go Home Without You (melodigasm in the ears...)

Now I don't know about you, but for a band with only two albums, that's not a bad collection of great songs!

10 Songs — Dec. 18, 2008

Every so often, I'll post ten songs. Songs that make this list don't need to fit any special criteria other than that I like 'em! But usually, they'll be ones that I found recently, or perhaps rediscovered deep within the realms of my iTunes library. So please, take a peak, have a listen, and better yet, even dare to leave a comment.

10. The Proclaimers - I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) ...Molson Canadian ads?
9. Radiohead - 15 Step ...it's in 5/4 time!
8. Muse - Hysteria ...crazy song
7. Creedence Clearwater Revival - Fortune Son ...a classic
6. Anberlin - Feel Good Drag ...such a headbanger
5. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Can't Stop ...great intro
4. Chemical Brothers - Burst Generator ...amazing progressions
3. Coldplay - Glass of Water ...such a chilled song
2. The Eagles - Hotel California ...guitar solo much?
1. Benny Benassi - Shocking Silence ...definition of epic
