The song “Gentle Robots” by Boylion (this is the band with an old Nintendo cheatcode as their album title, right? I’ve listened to the album in my friends car once, but I can’t remember any of the songs though) and “Zutto” by The Boredoms. Round 7: 21/38 – damn it! BTW, this looks like a great mix **Treviathan** , Canada is hot shit these days. Have you heard the KC Accidental album “Captured Anthems For An Empty Bathtub”? “Nancy and the Girdle Boy” is my favorite instrumental of the year. I’d kill to have my own radio show. ---
