Rising from the dirt like a zombified corpse, hecklerspray fought through six solid inches of relatively loose top-soil that was actually only covering part of our legs, to bring you this week’s super-songs. We woke up last Thursday to find ourselves half-buried in a mass grave generally set aside for dead and dying dogs. We were scared, we were hungry, and most awkwardly, a dead terrier’s tooth seemed to by burrowing deeper into our buttock.

But we weren’t alone. We had these six tracks to keep us company, and good company they did keep. It was them that gave us courage to flag down that girl passing by on a lawnmower, it was them that convinced the girl to let us hold onto her axles while she pulled us free from the dirt, and it was these songs that helped us not throw-up when the sudden pull of the lawnmower bent our knees completely backward, and ripped off our smaller fingers.

And now we want you to hear them too. This week we want you to hunt down tracks from Manic Street Preachers, Under The Influence Of Giants, Sting, Bruce Cockburn, Ryan Adams, and The Dandy Warhols. May they soothe your soul as you lay surrounded by dead and whimpering house-pets as they did ours.
