Moody Mg Playlist

[Young Grasshopper]

I've been working on this playlist for some time now, and after play testing it for the past 3 months I feel like it's finally complete. It is by no means a greatest hits compilation, however, if played straight through, it creates a very melancholy mood as the tunes blend great into one another. I have many Matthew Good compilations, but I have been consistently going back to this one lately when looking for my MG fix and I just wanted to share it with everyone here. I usually listen to it in bed as it helps me fall asleep, and FYI... "Hey Hell Heaven" at the end was placed there with the same idea as a bonus track as it doesn't blend well after "Metal Airplanes". Could some of you put it together, give it a bunch of listens, and let me know what you think? Thanks.

You have a lot of tunes on yours that just missed the cut on mine, namely Odette, Set Me On Fire, House of Smoke and Mirrors, and Blue Skies Over Bad Lands. It's also very difficult for me to hear The Boy Who Could Explode without listening to Last Parade before it. Not much on Arrows that could contribute to a "mood compilation" but the ones I've chosen (especially Letters In Wartime) seem to fit nice as they provide a timely jab to the nose when needed (same with Near Fantastica). The tracks that best blend into one another are Champions of Nothing and Avalanche / Near Fantastica and How it Goes / 99% Of Us Is Failure and A Single Explosion / and of course Last Parade and The Boy Who Could Explode.
