Each week on the 3am Mixtapes podcast, I will share with you the Top Six Songs of a certain subject. The topics can be as general like like best drum solos. Some might be a little more... specific. Top six bands that sound nothing like their name implies.

Since the Polaris Music Prize announced their Long List was announced last week, I figure this episode I would take a look at that. And while I am not a part of that jury, why let that stop me from picking my top five from the short list, as well as one overlooked album, on the Top Six Albums I'd Pick Were I A Polaris Juror!

With cuts from nominated albums:

"Julia With Blue Jeans" On by Moonface
"#4" by AroarA
"Itchy Blood" by The Darcys
"Pretty Respectable" by Mounties
"Hall of Mirrors" by YAMANTAKA // SONIC TITAN
"King David" by We Are The City
