Grinding Process

Category: Various Loud Artists

Modern Boys

Category: Single Artist

Sounds like: love, jealousy, poison, eyeliner and estate housing.

Dramatics and fashionable androgyny aside, Suede actually produced some pretty stellar guitar driven pop songs.  I've tried to include some lesser known tracks here, as there's already a perfectly decent Singles compilation available.  All of the major lineup changes and mood swings are covered, from Bernard Butler to Neil Codling (and a certain Ms. Frischmann). Embrace the trashiness, the swagger and the downright britishness of it all.

Meat Puppets

Category: Single Artist

Sounds like: a punk band that wanted to be ZZ Top.

A lot of people would say "just buy/download their second album," and to an extent a lot of people are right.  Most of their other albums (especially the post-SST major label stuff) have a lot of filler.  This has a fair amount of Meat Puppets II but also pulls some great tracks from otherwise frustrating albums.
