Don’t say I didn’t tell you so. Yes, it’s Monday already, once more. Only this Monday is bank holiday, so we don’t have to be so miserable about it. However, just to put the cherry on top, I’m going to give you some more fantastic songs to listen to.

Tonight, we start with a classic tune. Funnily enough, however, it’s theme is equally as classic, based upon the dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima in 1945:

Enola Gay
Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark
Organisation


Legendary band Tool produced a fantastic album in Undertow, and the title track is one the finest:

Undertow
Tool
Undertow


Not Linkin Park’s finest album, but this is a song that is chock-a-block full of emotion and depth:

Valentine’s Day
Linkin Park
Minutes To Midnight


It’s such a nice title for a song. It makes you think of happy things. Despite this, it’s a brilliant song:

Rape Me
Nirvana
In Utero


If anyone can decipher these lyrics, then you are goddamn genius. Asides from the odd words, it’s a strangely catchy tune:

Ddevil
System of a Down
System of a Down


Senses Fail are a band that have unfortunately not quite made into the upper echelons of musical success. Nevertheless, they produce a large quantity of stunning tracks. Here is such a track:

Bite To Break Skin
Senses Fail
Let It Enfold You


Max Cavalera is renowned for being a metal genius. This is just more proof of his metal talent:

Blood Fire War Hate
Soulfly
Conquer


Imperfect Harmonies wasn’t exactly well received by the musical critics, unlike Serj’s first solo effort. Nevertheless, this is a fantastic, albeit bizarre, song:

Yes, It’s Genocide
Serj Tankian
Imperfect Harmonies


Fleet Foxes are one of the UK’s rising stars, in my opinion. From their premier album, here is “Tiger Mountain Peasant Song”:

Tiger Mountain Peasant Song
Fleet Foxes
Fleet Foxes


Why, Trent Reznor, why?! I wish he would return for some more NIN-lovin’. Whilst we wait, have “The Becoming”:

The Becoming
Nine Inch Nails
The Downward Spiral


It’s over, already, again. Don’t fear, it’ll soon be time for another ten delectable tracks. Until next time, my friends.
