Ever wonder what the Creative Loafing music team listens to on Mondays to get us through the day? Here’s this week’s selections.

Taylor – Hanson, Shout It Out (2010)

Invigorating new power pop from the beloved brotherly trio of the 90s. Look for a review soon.

Autopsy IV – The Roots, How I Got Over (2010) and Those Poor Bastards, Gospel Haunted (2010)

I am listening to the new Roots and new Those Poor Bastards albums on shuffle. Imagine going from hip hop to doom country multiple times in one day.

Jeff – Dominic Miller, November (2010)

Latest release from Sting's longtime guitarist and collaborator. It's his first release using electric guitar, so the sound is really interesting. Trying to brush up for a Wednesday interview with Dominic.

Ivan – Soul Asylum, Grave Dancers Union (1992)

Dusted off this gem this weekend. Dave Pirner's voice is the main reason I got into this band b-in-the-d. "Runaway Train," "Black Gold," "Somebody to Shove"… all great sing-along songs. Recommended for morning commutes on the Howard Frankland or Sunday morning trips to the beach.
