Mux139: Rookies 4

Sometimes you have to end a run of great muxes by throwing together a sort of garbage mountain equivalent of Mux139. Hard to track down rookies these days.

Boom.

1. Pissed Jeans - Bathroom Laughter (Honeys)
2. Queens of the Stone Age - The Lost Art of Keeping a Secret (Rated R)
3. Atoms For Peace - Before Your Very Eyes... (Amok)
4. The Russian Futurists - Why You Gotta Do That Thang? (Our Thickness)
5. Ratatat - Seventeen Years (Ratatat)
6. Earth, Wind & Fire - Shining Star (That's The Way of the World)
7. Average White Band - Pick Up The Pieces (AWB)
8. Bob Seger - Love The One You're With (Smokin' O.P.'s)
9. HAERTS - All For You (Hemiplegia) (For JET)
10. Waxahatchee - Swan Dive (Cerulean Salt)
11. The Changes - Her, You And I (The Changes EP)

Really hope none of these are accidentally elsewhere. The final track just might be, since I have such an odd affection for that song. I showed up to see Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks at the Metro in Chicago some random night and missed the openers. All I caught of The Changes was "Her, You And I," and while I don't think the album cut can do justice for what those gentlemen do live, it was one of those moments that cemented my rule of Never Miss The Opening Bands.

Rookies: See title.
