The Organ of Meaning

Yesterday a friend posted his playlists and asked others to do the same. I ran into a problem.

I like too many songs and my playlists have a lot of overlap. I feel like I have a pretty wide range of styles, a lot of hardcore, punk and metal – and I love cover songs.

Anyway, here’s the whole list (after the jump), it’s all of my favs (4 and 5 stars in iTunes):
