This One Goes Out To

August 30th, 2005

whoever is responsible for the air conditioning being out in Kirwan Tower. I’m sweating just sitting here at the computer. My roommate has been sleeping on the floor because “heat rises, you know.” We’re all dying and I don’t think anyone cares. So to celebrate another night waking up in a pool of sweat, here are some heat inspired tracks. Feel free to leave other inspiring ‘hot’ tunes in the comments.

MP3: VHS or Beta - Night on Fire
One of the best things to come out of Kentucky in years, VHS or Beta were making dance punk 80s style before it was the cool thing to do. While this song is more likely to be steaming up a dance floor, it’s still nice to think about when I’m burning alive.

MP3: Liars - Mister, You’re on Fire, Mister
This is a Peel track from their 2002 session. If you’re unfamiliar with them, think if Mclusky got in a fist fight with the Violent Femmes…and won.

Also, note that I managed not to post “Burning Down the House.” How, I don’t know.

EDIT: Fixed the Liars link!
