New Kings of Leon album is out today, so I'm shuffling that. Also got the new Chvrches album to shuffle later! Score.
Recent additions to my playlists:
Comments
Thunderstruck, AC/DC
Free For All, Ted Nugent
Scatman (Ski-Ba-Bop-Ba-Dop-Bop) - Scatman John
Eye Of The Tiger - Survivor
Washington Post -John Philip Sousa
Stars And Stripes Forever - John Philip Sousa
Rock 'n Roll All Night - Kiss
Not The Same Without You - Donald Fagen
I'll admit Sousa is an odd choice for this type of playlist, but it works for me. Great for keeping pace while jogging. Besides which, Sousa is awesome.
Love Naked and Famous. How is the new Kings of Leon?
I haven't fully digested it--mostly background music to working rather than listening for effect. But a couple of songs caught my attention.
I rarely buy a whole album unless I listen to it first on Spotify but I did the pre-order here--I guess I had faith in them.
The two albums I can recommend without question from recent-ish releases are The National and Jimmy Eat World.

I get bored easily so it helps to have variety....
Eat. Sleep. Mate. Defend.
Yeah, I just added it on Pandora!
Bacause my kids are all around, I also, inadvertently, listen to a lot of Grizzly Bear, Caravan Palace and Billie Holiday.
In the car I listen to AltNation and XMU on Sirius. My older make of radio doesn't have an AUX input but I can do the FM transmitter thing. The two big benefits are no ads, and new music. It still frustrates me terribly that they likely have 10,000-song playlists and yet continually run the top 20 or so songs all day. Disadvantage of kind of taking listener requests, I guess.
I've always thought that a truly random playlist radio station from a big enough library would be a huge draw. That's essentially what I do with my iPod--the playlist AltMaster has over 3000 songs in it. Shuffling that is fun.
The other good means I've found for finding new music (other than friends' suggestions) is the KEXP Song of the Day podcast.
