Shuffle five, describe:
\n<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Lilys - Coby<\/a>. This is from a split EP they did with Aspera Ad Astra. It's in their\/his shoegaze style: lots of fuzzy, screaming, droning guitars; vocals buried in reverb. I like this little EP, and the bands are so similar I spent years without knowing which songs were from which band (I also didn't bother reading the liner notes). Love the Lilys. Guess I probably love Aspera Ad Astra, too.\n
  2. SRV - Testify (live)<\/a>. Wow. That guy was awesome.\n
  3. Bauhaus - Rosegarden Funeral Of Sores<\/a>. A fun little song about the whores next door. Daniel Ash is a different kind of guitar genius - a screechier kind.\n
  4. Big Star - Nightime<\/a>. This would've been one of many sweet little acoustic tunes, on either of Big Star's first two records. But Chilton had given up on sweetness, on this record. And so this is decorated with a wailing, reverb-soaked, electric, slide guitar, which makes the whole thing feel disoriented and drunken.\n
  5. Hank Williams - Window Shopping<\/a>. This was the B side to one of the last singles released while he was still alive: 1952's \"Jambalaya\". It's a nice enough tune, does everything you'd expect from a Hank Williams song. It's just not one of his absolute best songs.\n<\/ol>\n
