Franjapan's Playlist For A Road Trip

QOTSA - You think I aint worth a dollar but I feel like a Millionaire

An opening SLAMMER from a concept album ABOUT a road trip? The song is so loud and energetic, with punching and driving guitars. An easy selection from my favorite album

LCD Soundsystem - All My Friends
7 and a half minutes that still feels like it goes by so quickly. know almost every word, and the build of the song is so addictive and the lyrics impossible to not sing along to.

Oysters in my pocket - Royel Otis

There’s not much more you could ask for when considering the ideal road trip song. It's upbeat, it's vibrant, and it makes you want to crank the volume and roll the windows down!

Jackie down the line - Fontaines D.C.
I feel like this song really shines in the back-half of the drive. Your bum’s a little sore, your eyes a little drowsy and you’re in need of a little pick me up. This song comes on and instantly transcends you into a state akin to the feeling of a mafia bossman.

That’s the majestic power of Fontaines D.C.

If You’re Too shy - 1975

Ethereal start allows you to take in your surroundings, appreciate the world you're driving in. Then the groove drops in and gives you an 80's throwback mood, windows down and vibes very high. Can't not sing the chorus.

Canarie in a Coalmine - The Police

Just a fun tune init just bounces you to your next destination the whole way.

Yumi Zouma: In Camera

Angelic vocals, drum machine, groovy guitar riff, dreamy arrangement, heavenly hooks. It’s indie pop at its best and it’s getting blasted on our road trip.

I don’t wanna go out - Wet Leg
Favorite part is the guitar riff in the verses, the same riff as ‘man you sold the world’ by nirvana. Hits so hard.

Dive - mother culture
My favorite track of the year, immaculate vibe when the chorus comes in and it’s an absolute sing along.
