Holiday Demon Rock

Not only was there a celebration of Holiday jams on Monday's broadcast, we also busted a move to Banjo's favorite albums and artists of 2008. But rather than play all those boring and stale and generic holiday rock songs, we decided to go a different direction and embrace something that's slightly more in tune with rock and roll...the devil. So we offered up SIX artists that rocked out for the Prince of Darkness...can you guess who they are? And for the favorites of 2008 we decided to tie-in the Mr. Satan as well by playing at least one cut from Banjo's top 18 albums of the year...why 18 you ask? Well because SIX plus SIX plus SIX equals 18. And of those 18, SIX of them are Banjo's absolute favorites of the year and are lucky enough to have TWO songs each be played, because TWO is that magic number given to Lucifer by indie rock's favorite heathen, Prometheus. And of course, Banjo's favorite album and artist of the year got a special THIRD track played! Hot damn.

Songs denoted with a * were not played due to a massive power outage in the middle of the show thanks to all the kickass Rock and Roll being played...or something...and by the time the server was back up and running time was not on Banjo's side...perhaps we should have offered up a second virginal sacrifice...
