Sunday Mix Tape – Number 119

Thanks in part to Bob Dylan (well, not Bob Dylan himself, but one of his fansites), this website has shattered its single-day web traffic record. Right now it is on pace for almost 2,000 unique visitors, which is pretty impressive considering the highest previous single-day total was, like, 900 people. So, thanks a lot Bob Dylan, you overrated piece of shit! Your lyrics suck, man!

RULES for uninitiated noobs: With roughly 100MB of webspace, I give birth to a weekly Mix Tape to be deposited on your iPods or Zunes or Kingklangs or whatever the industry is currently pushing on you. Sometimes there will be themes that link all the songs together, other times I’ll just throw songs at a wall (not literally) and see what sticks. For example, this week…well, there isn’t a theme, but the two Bedhead songs are related! “Leper” is the musical notation of “Lepidoptera” turned upside down! How cool is that? As always, these songs will be removed if desired by the band or those who represent them. Let me know and I will gladly comply. The goal of this endeavor, as always, is to pique your interest in these artists so you’ll support the artists and buy their albums.
