Playlist Central

And you thought most drummers just liked the intro to Van Halen's "Hot For Teacher." Bryan Devendorf of the National bequeathed us this impressive playlist revealing a knowledge of bands that would stump most record store clerks. With songs by the Rosebuds, Beirut, the Walkmen, Sufjan Stevens, Broken Social Scene, Hayden and others, we're surprised Devendorf doesn't thrive in Chicago as a writer for Pitchfork Media.
