From The Vaults Modcast 31: Music for the Modern Mod

Once more into the vault my friends, once more into the vault. Step back in time, to a time when the modcast was young and fresh. Step back to December of '06. I've opened up the vaults and dusted off a classic modcast that I think you'll enjoy. Again.

This is modcast 31 and I'm finally getting around to presenting what I think are the essential tracks for the modern mod's music library. These bands represent just a bit of the latest wave of music reflecting sixties R&B, power-pop and soul influences.

• Mando Diao -- Down in the Past
  
• Kaiser Chiefs -- Na Na Na Na Naa
  
• Franz Ferdinand -- Cheating on You
  
• Maximo Park -- A19
  
• The Libertines -- What Became of the Likely Lads
  
• Ordinary Boys -- Maybe Someday
  
• The Rakes -- Strassbourg
  
• Hot Hot Heat -- You Owe Me an IOU
  
• The Futureheads -- A to B
  
• Head Automatica -- God
  
• Hard-Fi -- Stars of CCTV

Bonus Video: Mando Diao's video for "Paralyzed"



This one is a recent appearance of Head Automatica on Carson Daily's show doing the Joe Jacksonesque "Lying Through Your Teeth".
