Mittwoch Mixes - Screaming down the halls & Root that Mountain Down

 Another pair of mixes.

The first, hwæt! Screaming down the halls features some intensive saxophones... When I was in middle school, I got the Stooges' Funhouse album as it was advertised as a precursor to Marilyn Manson. While I left Manson behind long ago, I've stayed a massive Stooges fan and hearing Iggy scream "blow Steve, blow!" in "Funhouse" is one of the touchstones of my musical taste.

Fourteen tracks instead of the usual thirteen, because how could I leave off "Fun House"? This mix is for those who like their saxophone extra Skronky. Also, for those who haven't seen it, the video for Ukandanz's cover of "War Pigs" is more than worth your time.

The second mix, hwæt! Root that Mountain Down, features untraditional takes on traditional and folk songs. Sure, I used "I Wish I Was A Mole In the Ground" on the schlürf mix, but here it is on a mix that will be less painful for those with misophonia.
