Modcast #342: Doin' The iMod Shuffle Vol. 4

It's time for another volume of the iMod shuffle. If you recall, the iMod shuffle is where my ipod takes over the show and shows me how it's done. There's only rule for the iMod shuffle, I play it as it came up on the ipod -- these exact songs in exactly this
order, no substitutions. And this time around I even keep my yapper closed more than usual, so there's less talk and more rock.

Modcast #340: The New Art School

It's a bit of a cliché, forming a band while you're in art school. Or college. Or any school at all. But that's because it happens quite a bit. So I've collected a whole bunch of bands whose origins go back to art school mostly, though occasionally college as well. Ready to get schooled?
