Obviously every two weeks wasn’t happening but here’s a new one.

Every week Apple Music makes a Friends Mix. I will make off the cuff “reviews” of the songs in this list. As Apple Music likes to put the same bands on the list often, so I will skip some of the tracks.

The Field Mice “Where’d You Learn to Kiss That Way?“ Do I like jangly twee guitar pop? No. Listened to 44 seconds.

Belle and Sebastian “The Fox in the Snow” Seriously this song is called “The Fox in the Snow.” What the hell did I play to get this crap, see The Field Mice. Listened to 10 seconds.

Yo La Tengo “Shadows” Off to a mellow start. I like some Yo La Tengo, this is boring. Listened to a minute and 4 seconds.

Mojave 3 “In Love With a View” Go listen to Slowdive instead. Listened to 10 seconds.

Westkust “Swebeach” Uptempo shoegaze starts off good but then good lord the vocals start. Listened to a minute and 13 seconds.

The Van Pelt “His Saxiphone is my Guitar” It’s no “The Guitar is my Sword” by Heavy Load. Gonna go listen to that. Listened to all of it.

The Jesus Lizard “Uncommonly Good” This is shit, was Albini the secret sauce? Listened to minute and 11 seconds.

Cows “A Oven” Yeah, gritty, belching horns, noise rock. Listened to a minute and 28 seconds?

Ducks Ltd “Get Bleak” Really? Ducks Ltd is your name. Knew this would be twee bullshit before I hit play. Listened to 20 seconds.

Scrawl “See” Bland as paste. 15 seconds.

The I Don’t Care’s “Need The Guys” Ugghh was no one looking that the needles were pinned to the right when recording. The shitty local band you have to sit through to see the band you want to see. Listened to 23 seconds.

The Cure “Pictures of You” Do I really need to tell you anything about this? Listened to it all.

Day Wave “Need The Guys” Take all indie pop from new wave to shoe gaze and put it in a blender and poor out this uninspired dreck. Listened to a minute and 13 seconds.

The War on Drugs “Red Eyes” The war on my ears. 32 seconds.

Maps & Atlases “Winter” What the fuck did I do to deserve this? Listened to 34 seconds.

Japandroids “Fires Highway” I always want them to sound like robot rock. Listened 53 seconds.

Fugazi “Waiting Room” If you wanted to see people loose their shit, watching the crowd when Fugazi started playing this. YouTube it. Listened to it all.

The Partisans “Blind Ambition” This started really interesting then the second guitar riff started. ah its back. Wants to be the Buzzcocks or the Damned, it’s not. Listened to a minute and 36 seconds.

The Hard Quartet “Rio’s Song” Not hard at all. I have a lot of 70s rock that I can listen to instead. Listened to 49 seconds.

Weak Signal “Wannabe” I’d prefer if it was the Spice Girls. Listened to 42 seconds.

Waxahatchee “Right Back to It” I didn’t even hit play.

Echo & The Bunnymen “Fuel” This kinds of leans toward Joy Division. Listened to it all.
