Sound the alarm. We're tenacious and fiending for your iPod playlists, no matter how revealing. We told you even bands are not immune to this treatment and we weren't messing around. This month, for July's installment, we bring you the top 10 most-played lists of four Doomtree members: rappers Sims and Mike Mictlan, DJ Paper Tiger, and beatmaker Lazerbeak.

2. "Get On Your Boots (Justice Remix)" - U2
3. "In the Sky" - B.o.B
4. "Romo Goth" - Department of Eagles
5. "World Is Empty" - J. Cole
6. "Humble Mumble" - Outkast
7. "City Lights" - Redman & Method Man ft. UGK
8. "Recommendation" - Little Dragon
9. "When I Said Goodbye" - Mayer Hawthorne
10. "Blauh" - Freeway
Analysis: The opening beats on Sims' #1 sound like they were made for him (pensive and groovy). The U2 is a little surprising, and we thought we'd see some local hip-hop here, but thanks to Sims for putting us on to Little Dragon -- what a sweet little song that "Recommendation" is.

LAZERBEAK:
2. "Turn to Stone" - Electric Light Orchestra
3. "Your Smiling Face" - James Taylor
4. "Kids" - MGMT
5. "Throw Some D's" - Rich Boy
6. "Sail Away" - Randy Newman
7. "Tubin'" - Hockey Night
8. "Losing Out" - Black Milk
9. "When You Were Young" - The Killers
10. "Step In The Name Of Love" - R.Kelly
Analysis: By far our favorite playlist. Oh, the range! No matter what 'Beak says, Hall and Oates and James Taylor are guilty pleasures. And for that matter, so is "Throw Some D's" by now. To be a great beatmaker, one has got to have a wide variety of taste to draw from, and we can see that Lazerbeak certainly does have that.
