TR!ΔNGL€ T€€TH Posted July 25, 2006 Report Share Posted July 25, 2006 I find all of Siamese Dream by the Smashing Pumpkins oddly summery, but that might just be me... Saints - the BreedersGood to me - Brendan BensonTurn it On - Flaming LipsSugarcube - Yo La tengoBeen caught stealing - Jane's Addiction...to name six off of the top of my head.

arcadian Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 Lately, I've been finding cds by 'You Say Party! We Say Die!', 'The Faint' and '!!!' to be good summer listening, plus there's something about playing 'Hunted by a Freak' or 'Killing All the Flies' by Mogwai in the car on a sunny day which is just awesome.
