Mudhoney – Touch Me I’m Sick
Woohoo! It's grunge week, I guess!
(How have we never played Mudhoney!?)
Marcy Playground – The Shadow Of Seattle
Wimps – “O.P.P”
No, it’s not a cover.
I struggled pretty hard on narrowing this down to one song, but this came on and I couldnt’t get out of my head and I figured that’s as good of a criteria as any. Every Wimps album is really fun; super hooky power pop about getting old basically. Their new one, Garbage People might be their best. If you enjoy this song, you’d probably like the rest. Check ‘em out, they don’t get nearly enough love.
Queensrÿche – Jet City Woman
I get sent to Seattle a fair amount which is fine because there's no shortage of songs about it.

I was also delighted to find that a "bike shorts" tag already exists.
Chastity Belt – “5am”
One of my very favorite active bands. This is the best song on their new record.
Owl City – Hello Seattle
Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more.

Soundgarden – The Day I Tried to Live
I wasn't going to do one of these, but I was driving around late tonight listening to his music and this song came on and I decided I had to. This is from a few years ago when Soundgarden reunited.
Temple of the Dog – Say Hello 2 Heaven

Guess where I'm off to?
Here's Mr. Snider's take on the Talkin' Blues.
