The Fiery Furnaces  Tropical Iceland (EP version)

Step IV  Ok are you tired and sweaty yet? Dizzy maybe? Lets take a breather... maybe grab a glass of water. Do not eat cheesecakes! Vegetables are okay... 
King Missile  Cheesecake Truck

The Hold Steady  Banging Camp  
The Thermals  Pillar of Salt

The National  Start a War  

Comment:

This was for a cd exchange some friends and I did recently, the theme was open, I chose to go with 'songs that make me want to jump on my couches'.

PS. a friend told me about when they were on the Steven Colbert show, and during an ad break he was singing Holland, 1945 at the top of his lungs. That story is so heartwarming to me
