    • 4. Just by Radiohead
      This is what made me love Radiohead. Yes, even the new stuff. But what does the guy at the end of the video say?
    • 3. Mr. Bungle by Stubb-a-dub
      Bizarre. But Fun. Mike Patton is amazing.

      311 kicks ass and there are many songs I could have picked for them but flowing just happens to be one of my favorites...
