Accidents happen all the time. Some are worse than others, but all of them tend to have an impact. This week on Stuck In Thee Garage, I played songs about accidents in hour 2. It's not accident that they're great, although there was an accidental inclusion in the playlist. I had intended to include "Crash Years" by the New Pornographers, but for some reason, the MP3 that was labeled as such turned out to be "Sharks" by Cadence Weapon. Not what I was planning, but a good song nonetheless. My face when I realized the mistake:
This playlist is totally not bogus:
Hour 1

Destroyer - Kinda Dark/Have We Met
Drive-By Truckers - Armageddon's Back in Town/The Unraveling
Hallelujah the Hills - I'm You/I'm You
