WFMU's MySpace Band Friends - Pick your Favorites, Round 5!!!

Sun Good morning people! 

After a short marathon-induced break, we're back with more randomly selected morning maniac music, courtesy of WFMU's lengthy myspace friends list!  Here's the deal, in case you've missed earlier installments:  listen to the song, check the profile if you want, and then vote!    

The band or bands who get the most "Pump it" votes each week will be forever exalted in the form of my FIRST EVER MARATHON PREMIUM called "In MySpace, No One Can Hear You Scream", offered for pledges of $75 or more to WFMU's 50th Anniversary Fundraising Marathon (you can still pledge here!) .  With the artists' gracious permission, the winning tracks from the 1st portion of this year will be compiled onto one CD, packaged lovingly, and mailed to your home in exchange for some dosh for the station's perilously emaciated coffers.   Last episode's favorites include So Cow, Copydex, Holmes, The Soap, Irmãos Panarotto, and Magic Carpathians.  Congratulations, band buddies! 

Who will be next?  It's up to you!!
