Monday Mix – Family Matters

I was up in Austin last week visiting my old roommate/movie and music buddy.  She’s in a mix CD group; they pick a theme every month, then meet somewhere cool to swap with one another.  As I was leaving, she handed me a novel and a copy of her mix; the theme was “family.”  When I mail her back her novel later this week, this is the family-themed mix I’ll be mailing her as well:

1. Gogol Bordello – American Wedding
2. Art Brut – My Little Brother
3. Of Montreal – So Begins Our Alabee
4. Scissor Sisters – Take Your Mama Out
5. Neko Case – This Tornado Loves You
6. Martha Wainwright – Bloody Mother Fucking Asshole
7. The White Stripes – The Hardest Button to Button
8. The Decemberists – The Rake’s Song
9. Antony & the Johnsons – You Are My Sister (ft. Boy George)
10. PJ Harvey – Down by the Water
11. The Offspring – The Kids Aren’t Alright
12. Tori Amos – ‘97 Bonnie and Clyde
13. Sleater-Kinney – Sympathy
