Food Music

I was listening to The Hives this morning and noticed how appropriate they seemed for my mood after drinking a lot of black coffee and started to think about food / beverage and music pairings.

Black Flag would be another good coffee band, but Jack Johnson would be better with breakfast.

Killdozer (don’t click if kids or employers are in earshot) and Morphine would go well with a burger and fries, and Cleveland’s own Death of Samantha describes a good pick me up in the afternoon.

A beer before dinner would pair well with The Jesus Lizard, but Sam Beam or The Replacements would be better for wine.

Kimya Dawson would be good with some locally grown produce for dinner, with some fruit salad on the side.

Grinderman seems appropriate for after dinner drinks (specifically “a liter of cognac”).

If you feel hungry but don’t really want to eat, P.J. Harvey would be a good choice. But the Donnas would be better if you have late night munchies.

And no list like this would be complete without “Weird” Al.
