#350 30 Seconds To Mars - "This Is War" from "This Is War"

#349 Jeff Bridges - "Hold On You" from "Crazy Heart Soundtrack" - The "Crazy Heart" Soundtrack is the best soundtrack from a fake artist since "Walk Hard" and Jeff Bridges is a great outlaw country singer.

#348 Phish - "Joy" from "Joy" - I hate obsessive Phish fans, but a great song is a great song.

#347 The Drums - "Don't Be A Jerk, Jonny" from "Summertime!" - Cross The Smiths with The Ramones and you get the Drums. You'll probably be hearing more from them in the future.

#345 Matisyahu - "One Day" from "Light"

#344 Brendan Benson - "A Whole Lot Better" from "My Old, Familiar Friend"

#336 Street Sweeper Social Club - "The Squeeze" from "Street Sweeper Social Club" - Guitar legend Tom Morello teams up with his latest Zach substitute, Boots Riley (of the Coup) to form Street Sweeper Social Club.
