1-hour artist challenge

[Purplepash]

The new album from Pond (one of, if not the best, psych pop rock bands), The Weather, comes out this week. One of my most anticipated albums for 2017 after their last album, Man It Feels Like Space Again was my favourite album of 2015. Fantastic live band I've seen many times perfectly suited for festivals.
To whet your appetite and help get you pumped, or maybe even intoduce you to them, here is my one hour artist challenge for Pond.

I was thinking about this recently on a long trip; I was listening to a bunch of Eels.

Artist: Eels

1. Electro Shock Blues
2. Cancer For The Cure
3. Tiger In My Tank
4. Jungle Telegraph
5. Love Of The Loveless
6. That Look You Give That Guy
7. Losing Streak

[Words]

Okay I love making mixes! This should be really fun!
So I'm gonna do Belle and Sebastian! I could make mixes all day of these guys I love these guys and gals! I made an EP and a LP. I also cheated a bit and added Stuart Murdoch's side project "God Help The Girl"

This one flows nice, it's the EP

1. Step Into My Office Baby - Dear Catastraphe Waitress
2. Come On Sister - Write About Love
3. Sleep The Clock Around - The Boy With The Arab Strap
4. I Could Be Dreaming - Tigermilk
5. Like Dylan in the Movies - If Your Feeling Sinister

The next one flows a bit less musically and more lyrically. It's kinda a concept about love. I like to think of it being about a love that's more of a daydream but our...whoever this guy is...wants it to be real and does his best to do so. It was hastily made so It's not perfect.

1. I Want The World To Stop - Write About Love
2. If She Wants Me - Dear Catastraphe Waitress
3. Pretty Eve In Tub - God Help The Girl
4. Ease Your Feet If In The Sea - The Boy With The Arab Strap
5. Expectations - Tigermilk
6. Seeing Other People - If You're Feeling Sinister
7. Write About Love
8. God Help The Girl

I made the playlist on Tidal but I can't find it in the search bar so I'll try spotify later If anyone is interested!

[Komorebi-D]

Well, I'm back! I tried to find this post over a month ago but had no luck. So thanks goes to Tha1ChiefRocka & Words for making it relevant again. Thought I'd reconvene with The National because their album is out in three weeks and it's gonna be huge! This is my longest collection yet with 15 tracks, so I tried to incorporate something from every album - minus the first. Please enjoy... (Approx. 1 hr & 1 min)

The National:

The National - 1 Hour Artist Challenge: Playlist

1. Fake Empire
2. The System Only Dreams In Total Darkness
3. Conversation 16
4. This Is The Last Time
5. About Today
6. Terrible Love (Alternate Version)
7. Murder Me Rachel
8. Mistaken For Strangers
9. Carin At The Liquor Store
10. I Should Live In Salt (Honestly had troubles choosing between this & Fake Empire to start things off.)
11. Bloodbuzz Ohio
12. Apartment Story
13. Sea of Love
14. Mr. November
15. England

(Omitted: Graceless, Abel, Guilty Party, I Need My Girl, Start A War & Vanderlyle Crybaby Geeks.)

I keep feeling that mental itch to make more of these. I'll likely return soon. And I'm sorry, Lastings. Both playlists exceed 12 tracks (and the Modest Mouse one goes over an hour). I decided to choose two bands that I was surprised that I didn't make playlists for sooner. With both, I took tracks from every album and yes, even the latest Modest Mouse one (I believe the song I chose adds kind of an epilogues effect).
