Shannon McArdle "Leave Me For Dead" Shannon McArdle "I Was Warned" "Leave Me For Dead" and "I Was Warned" are essentially the same story told from different angles. She seems a bit manic, and the music bears that out with a cocky groove and a saturated organ texture that seems a bit bold and rude.

After all, Love always excelled when we could hear her tough facade disintegrate into raw grief mid-track. ( Click here to buy it via Catcall's MySpace page.) mrandmrsmays "B-05" - It's hard to imagine this song even existing outside of the summer.

Sonic Youth "Making The Nature Scene" - It may not be obvious if you just scan over this setlist on your computer monitor, but aside from the abundance of material from Daydream Nation, the group placed an emphasis on their rhythm-centric, almost-nearly-rapping side in this show.

Though Tricky is clearly still trying to find the perfect Martina Topley-Bird soundalike, the vocalists on the latter two tracks do well to avoid the sleepiness of previous faux-Martinas, and play up the tone of sassy defiance that made Topley-Bird so compelling in the first place.

Seelenluft "La Concierge" - This arrangement starts off grounded with a firm dance beat that carries through much of the track, but as the song progresses, it eventually drops out, and the music begins to float away like a helium balloon. ( Click here to buy it from Juno.)

The Dead Science "Monster Island Czars" - This is very unusual. The Dead Science are part prog, part modern classical, part no wave/noise rock. The singer not only sounds quite a bit like Craig Wedren from Shudder To Think, but Wedren actually has a guest appearance on the album.
