Remember the shitshow? The BYT message board was a huge success until it broke and was a lot of fun for a few annoying narcissists. Still, it was not all bad, and we decided that in lieu of our Friday VIDEO OF THE DAY we’re going to start doing a redux of one of the most popular stupid threads from that wonderful wasteland of time: the pump up jams topic
this is how it works: we asked some of our contributors to tell us what jams are getting them all hot and bothered for the weekend AND THEN-you get to write yours in the comments too. This should result either in an amazing pump up mix, or the biggest disaster ever.
TODAY-WE ASKED OUR VERY TALENTED PHOTO STAFF FOR SOME SUGGESTIONS (+ an inspirational photo to boot). Here’s what they came up with on our end:
Jeff Martin:
Sample:
STEPHANIE BREIJO:
- Miss Alissa – Eagles of Death Metal
- Surrender – Cheap Trick
- Huddle Formation – The Go! Team
- O Katrina! – The Black Lips
SHAUNA ALEXANDER:
- The XX – VCR (Matthew Dear Remix) Cale gifted me this track in a mix this week. Â Perfect for dancing in a mirror, trying to figure out what dress to wear for tonight’s Kennedy Center Holiday party (plus, sexy enough to be played after if you catch my drift).
- The Kills – “Superpowerless” Just tell me the lyrics don’t warrant screaming while chain-smoking cigarettes and trying to hail a cab at 3AM. “Till your drunk, till your high… till your superpowerless”
- Estelle feat. Kanye – “American Boy” You know I thought this song was finally out of my mind for good, but Philippe (of SILF + FatBack fame) played this jam at a party last night. Â It’ll never be gone now!
STEVE JETER:
- the illinois – fang Island
- titus andronicus – titus andronicus
- genghis tron – endless teeth
- hunter – mastodon
FRANZ MAHR:
- Kaskade- eyes (alvin risk remix)
- Zeds Dead- (Radiohead) pyramid song
- Le tigre- Decaptacon
JOSH SISK:
- Blut Aus Nord – Epitome II
- Mercyful Fate – Welcome Princes of Hell
- At The Gates – Slaughter of the Soul
- Ben Frost – The Carpathians
