Podcast To Be Named Later: Episode 2 

I got a decent response to the first podcast, so here it is, the "long awaited" second episode of the podcast still yet to be named where I bring you music that has caught my ear in the past week or so.

This week you'll hear an artist I mentioned in passing last week who may have my favorite pop song of 2006, a band with what I think is the album of the 2006 (so far), a band that will be releasing a contender for album of 2006 in a couple of weeks, a guy who played in Boston just a couple of days ago, and a pint-sized MC who might have the single of 2006. Sure, it's two months early to be naming off the top anything of the year, but it's a theme and everything needs a theme.

Speaking of themes, Brett's got a pretty cool theme on his podcast over at the Wicked Pissa Podcast. And he threw me a link, so how can I not return the love?

On this episode, you'll hear:

• Ain't No Other Man -- Christina Aguilera, Back to Basics
• Yankee Bayonet (I Will Be Home Then) -- The Decemberists, The Crane Wife
• Nightmare Alleys -- Dear Leader, The Alarmist
• Commerce, TX -- Ben Kweller, Sha Sha
• Love Me or Hate Me -- Lady Sovereign, Public Warning

That's it. 5 songs. A few minutes of me rambling.
