Lunchtime Poll: Flaunt Your Indie Cred

1/29/07, 11:56 am EST

Bush Heather

President Bush’s advisors call you into their offices and say, “Look, we’re facing a 29 percent approval rating, we’ll do anything to move the numbers. Can you suggest one cred-boosting album the president should add to his collection, something that’ll make him seem cool when he mentions it apropos of nothing in press conferences?” (Who wouldn’t like Bush a lot better if he were a Sebadoh fan?) Which record do you suggest? (Besides “Go to hell, War Pigs” – this is for ARGUMENT’S sake).

“Tago Mago” – Can

No single record. He can just claim that before “the internets” he used to buy Sub Pop records out of the same mail order catalog as me.

Jim | 1/29/2007, 12:21 pm EST

Boys and Girls In America…The Hold Steady

Whats Going On…. Marvin Gaye. I know Jim said it also but if W. actually knew what was going on we might not be in this mess.

I don’t have any selections for our President to help him redeem his status,but I do have one required track:

1/09…Clock’s ticking,trick!

PCL | 1/29/2007, 12:32 pm EST

If Chimpy comes out and says that he loves Stadium Arcadium, I may have to rethink things.

jill hives | 1/29/2007, 12:42 pm EST

the chronic, biatch.

The Grubby 1 | 1/29/2007, 1:50 pm EST

White Light/White Heat-The Velvet Underground.

Ouroboros | 1/29/2007, 1:58 pm EST

One of many inspired by him (at least the title), Radiohead’s “Hail to the Thief”.

bilo | 1/29/2007, 2:04 pm EST

The Libertines

Scott P | 1/29/2007, 2:15 pm EST

I’d love to see him flaunting pre-release copies of Bloc Party and Fall Out Boy’s new cd’s. Pete Wentz could then get all pissy and write another fascinating essay on his blog.

The Devil And God Are Raging Inside Me

ray | 1/29/2007, 2:57 pm EST

“Suicide is Painless” – MASH Soundtrack

Mark Lanegan is GOD | 1/29/2007, 3:47 pm EST

“Cure for Pain” by MORPHINE……….now thats cooool!

Tango Madly | 1/29/2007, 4:09 pm EST

A little dose of the Decemberists might help with his apparent lack of connection to the people, but if you’re talking something that would make him look cool? Er….

Judy | 1/29/2007, 5:07 pm EST

“American Idiot” would demonstrate both humility and a sense of reality.

geoff | 1/29/2007, 5:28 pm EST

i am one of the 29% that like him so i would give him a good dose of rock & roll through Led Zeppelin IV/zoso or maybe ted nugent’s free for all

brian | 1/29/2007, 6:52 pm EST

for title alone:

“stoned and dethroned”, The Jesus and Mary Chain.

THX-1138 | 1/29/2007, 7:59 pm EST

“Rant in E-Minor” Bill Hicks

Maybe it could squeegie his third eye some…

Lobsters | 1/29/2007, 10:00 pm EST

Oh, yeah, those poll numbers will go out of the roof once he starts talking about Indie bands. That would be enough to wipe out the entire shabby little movement right there. Which would be even better than knocking out Terrorism and Global Warming.

Elleita | 1/29/2007, 11:10 pm EST

Chris Knight… By far! Look him up people he is Amazing. Buckcherry, is an awesome band Josh Todd, Keith Nelson, and Xavier are amazing!

99999999 | 1/30/2007, 1:28 am EST

hole live through this coutney is a loser just like bush burn bitch burn

locoduck29 | 1/30/2007, 1:29 am EST

imagine if Bush were to all the sudden come out and praise Peaches, i know i’d die happy

Topher | 1/30/2007, 5:37 am EST

If he says he likes Late Registration by Kanye West maybe it will seem like he actually does like black people.

l/kjdgt | 1/30/2007, 9:24 am EST

American Idiot-Green Day

loren | 1/30/2007, 10:15 am EST

definately, “What’s Going On”.

Sean T | 1/30/2007, 11:25 am EST

I can’t believe that nobody has mentioned Dylan’s “The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan” and its key track – “Masters Of War” Could have been written yesterday. “A Hard Rain’s A Gonna Fall” is quita appropriate as well. 2008 cannot come fast enough.

Jason | 2/1/2007, 4:53 pm EST

Straight Outta Compton. Maybe he really does like black people
