it's dumb to get new music through tv shows, but hey, this isn't the first time i've learned a song i love by a band i recognize through watching chuck (ps: last two episodes have absolutely justified my decision to stick with this show). he's also playing my exact guitar.
oh and here's an old acoustic version
he looks a bit like nick offerman in this one.
i feel like i would really like this band. plus, i am quite fond of songs where it's unclear whether they want you not to give up or to give up. also, songs about drowning.
i decided to put this together a week or two ago. good stuff! who doesn't like epic songs, or making mixtapes? when in the mood, i might make other vague categories (good instrumental songs for mxitapes, interludes for mixtapes, love songs for mixtapes, lukewarm not-that-into-you songs for mixtapes, breakup songs for mixtapes, balls-out rock and roll for mixtapes, etc.) and post them. don't expect too much.
also: leave suggestions in the comments! my knowledge of epic songs is decent but pretty specific. let me know about others. andrew was spot-on with "home," and you can be too.
