Community S1E18

Community has been hitting it out of the park all season, and tonight's episode was no different. The episode showed Jeff, Abed, and Annie taking a pottery class with Shirley, Pierce, and Britta taking a class on sailing. While the whole episode was superb, the music lent itself very well to what has happening on screen. Especially during the "rescue" in the sailing story.

Also, don't forget to catch Donald Glover on Comedy Central Presents tomorrow night.

Streetlight Manifesto - 99 Songs of the Revolution (vol. 1)


Streetlight Manifesto's new album hit shelves on Tuesday. It is volume 1 of an ambitious multi-album project. 99 Songs of the Revolution is to be 99 cover songs being done by Streetlight Manifesto, Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution, and two more RISC Group bands. On a first listen, SLM's cover of "Linoleum" and "Hell" are probably the most standout tracks. However, "Such Great Heights," "Me and Julio Down By the School Yard," and "They Provide The Paint for the Picture-Perfect Masterpiece That You Will Paint on the Insides of Your Eyelids" are all superb tracks.

Easily the best cover albums in quite a while. Pick it up if you love Ska, Streetlight, or great covers.
