"Tom Petty, the greatest hits, first time on vinyl. It's every song you need pretty much."Watch this moment
"Bad Brains is obviously one of the best Punk hardcore bands that ever graced the Earth, pretty much, and I always love the live versions whenever I click around on YouTube or whatever, and sometimes I even like the live records even more."Watch this moment
"I recently took down all my CDs from the attic and then I kind of got stuck listening to this one Elliott Smith and it's really good. I forgot about it."Watch this moment
"69 Love Songs is a monster of a record. If you don't cry then you just feel it deep enough. It's exactly what it says on the tin, it's great."Watch this moment
"I got Emmylou Harris' Wrecking Ball. We started touring, like our first tours, our engineer always played the 'Where Will I Be' on every sound check, so it kind of reminds me of the younger days with The Hives. It's an amazing song, one of my favorite songs, and the sound is amazing and the record is amazing; it's a must-have."Watch this moment
