I doubt the iPhone music and tag at the end was his idea (smacks of smartass internet geekery to me) – nonetheless, this is so great:
Special Agent Dale Cooper
Damn good coffee. Damn good cherry pie.
FBI Listening List
The Devil's Blood, "Come Reap"
Given the band name and album cover, and this blog's musical predilections, you'd be forgiven for thinking this was another death metal band. Actually they're a retro rock/metal band that sounds like the perfect choice to do a new soundtrack for the original "Wicker Man" - somewhere between early Heart, Jethro Tull, and Sabbath, with a serious occult fixation. If we had a time machine and lived in hell this band would be on the radio all day long.
The Soviettes, "LP III"
Yelpy female-fronted punk with close precedents in the frantic, minimalist likes of Wire and Stiff Little Fingers. People who like the original punk bands and are tired of the Warped Tour can find refuge here.
Tiwony, "Viv La Vi"
French creole dancehall from Ethiopia. And really really good, even though I don't understand 2/3 of it. You'll have to Google it - I found it on one obscure legal download site and one seller of French music of all types.
Behemoth, "Evangelion"
Not named after the anime. Behemoth is just a beast in their genre - over-the-top death metal with black metal overtones and a taste for ancient mythology and Egyptian-sounding riffs. I find them a little more accessible than Nile, their kissing cousin both musically and lyrically.

He said the fuck word.
