Our Top 10 Songs: The Best of Year One on Bands You've Never Heard Of. Ep: 33

No new band this week. Instead, JR and Gary each pick their five favorite songs from the first year of Bands You've Never Heard Of — 30 bands in — and make the case for why these songs have stuck with them long past the episode recordings.JR's picks: Leather and Pearls by Room for Zero, Keeps the Candy Tight by Cowboy Destroy, Stay Away by Inside the Trojan Horse, Waves by Banana Gun (JR is their #3 listener in the world per Spotify Wrapped), A Thousand Days by Bad Mother Nature, and Bone Cracker Acetates by Geese. Gary's picks: Voicemail by The Anti-Groupies, Let's Break Up Again by Joan Smith and the Jane Does, Ladybug by The Psychedelics, and the song that wraps the whole Southern California thread into one — The Reckless.They play clips from all ten, argue about chord progressions and the mayor of Gary, Indiana, and rapid-fire the honorable mentions: England Bound by Blackbeard's Tea Party, Dirty 20 by Boy Bandicoot, Social Battery by The Anti-Groupies, Dogs by Inside the Trojan Horse, 405 by Hassan and the Unseen, Long for Glencoe by White Noise, and Gary's boys in 434 Stuck Out (live at the Foundry at Basic City in Waynesboro, VA — June 26).A brand new top 10 playlist with all of these songs is linked from bynhopod.com.
