The Turducken Song is a ukelele-backed indie pop duet which is a filthy ode to Easter. And it’s NSFW. Really.

Bathe Your Children is a goofy cover of the Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young song, “Teach Your Children,” as a parody with nonsensical lyrics.
Insomnia sure makes weird things happen. To insomnia!

Catastrophes is folk rock – a cello and a piano backing some earnest and defiant singing by Brian Rozendal.

I Said It All is a lovely bit of lofi garage rock, done for a Music Challenge – it uses only two chords.

There Is No is a slow and spooky song that uses the EBow for atmosphere.
Merry Christmas!

In A Room is a Britpop tune, a cover of The House of Love’s 1990 song. It’s got the shoegaze tag, but it lacks the overdriven guitar in the foreground with distorted effects that I associate with shoegazer. It’s more indie pop and alternative rock.

Mountains is another electronica track with trilling dronish synths, which remind me of Dan Deacon. It feels catchy and danceable to me – it’s happy and triumphant with a nice build.
I’ll just use “trilling” as the applicable tag.

No Tomorrow is experimental rock – it’s driven by noodly synths, which remind me of Dan Deacon. It’s got a noisy drone, but I like the progression. It’s nanojath’s first appearance on the podcast.

Wilson’s Hill is a long techno track, chiptunes with squealing synths noodling around fiercely. If I made a video for it, it would be a shoot-em-up game.

Together (You are not alone) is a mellow, loopy, and uplifting electronica track, which samples “I Am Legend” in a slightly ironic way.

Radio is a spacey electronica song, which then gets into gear with a tinkly and noodly synth.

Shutterbug is a pop song about grabbing the all-too-ephemeral moment.

Over My Shoulder is a pretty and sad song, a woman singing over a piano about a love moving on.
If you’ve noticed a pattern among the recent songs, I know, and it’s not you. My guess is that winter 2009 wasn’t a happy one.
