The Myrrors
These days, we all have the technical capability to prepare individual playlists to suit every specific occasion - the shower, the school run, the morning commute, the gym etc etc. I must admit that I usually just stick to old fashioned, unthemed compilations, though were I pressed to put together a playlist to accompany me as I stood on the central reservation of the M25 during rush hour, 'Entranced Earth' by The Myrrors would be the first tune on it. 'Entranced Earth' is the title track of the Tucson band's third LP, which was released earlier this year. It's relentless, claustrophobic and more than a little unsettling - and, to be perfectly honest, I'm also finding it a bit addictive.
Check out the whole album here.

I hope very much that you won't be making a habit of standing on the central reservation of the M25 during rush hour...
Haha - I've never done it and wouldn't want to, but this tune encapsulates the relentless noise and mild panic that I'm sure I'd be subject to in that particular environment.
Relentless sums it up - Glad I live in the Highlands where we barely have roundabouts let alone M25s!
