Mixtape Madness: Hangover mix

Drank too much last night? We feel you. It’s easy for a simple two-beer night to slide into a an all-out bender — and all the iced tea in the world could not save you from what is now going on. So what can help? Hair of the dog? A thorough shower? Apologize-texting all the drunk-textees? Nah, all you need is an empathetic mixtape to commiserate with. Try this one on for size.

Black Flag — “Six Pack”

Perhaps you were planning to share that case of beer you brought to the party, but things don’t always turn out the way we plan.

David Bowie — “Blackout”

Anyone who has lived through the experience of our Four Loko mixtape from 2010 knows the horrors of the infamous blackout. Is your auto-pilot trustworthy?

Dead Kennedys — Too Drunk to Fuck”

If it was a night where you too were sloshed to get your groove on, chances are the morning is not going to be much better.

The Weeknd — “The Morning”

However, if your morning turned out like Abel Tesfaye‘s, then at least you did something right…that is unless you woke up with your girlfriends in the middle of a desert like in this song’s unofficial video.

Frank Black — “Headache”

The most common result of the wild night out. It is a beast that can take on many shapes, sizes, and colors.

Beck — “Nausea”

If you’re lucky you can get by without puking up that 4 a.m. slice of pizza…

Superchunk — “Sick to Move”

…Just try to stay in bed though.

Lauryn Hill — “When It Hurts So Bad”

It’s going to get worse before it gets better so you may as well do something about it…

The White Stripes — “Girl, You Have No Faith in Medicine”

Don’t try to just tough it out. Eat a slice of bread, and take three acetaminophen pills.

Cat Power — “Water & Air”

Hydration is what you need. Get a bottle of water and get outside.

Beach House — “Walk in the Park”

A brisk stroll through the quiet parts of your neighborhood might do a world of good.

Blur — “Coffee & TV”

Caffeine might work. Also see if there’s anything on. A good distraction should get you out of your funk.

The Dresden Dolls — “My Alcoholic Friends”

And lastly, don’t hang out with the same crew two nights in a row, unless they’re feeling the same way and might just want to chill indoors with a movie.
