Drum Machine89

Hey can anyone suggest any new music i should check out?

JonnyPistachio

These arent necessarily new, but I just got into them (new to me :P ):

Black Keys
The Whigs
Rogue Wave (awesome, can't stop listening to latest album, Permalight)!

Kloddz

New as in "newcomer bands", or as in "bands you don't know yet"? Because for the latter, we would need to know what you listen to now, in order to give proper recommendations - and I'm still not sure whether I could come up with something useful.

Give this group a shot - Citay
Also definitely try - Fang Island

Their new album is OFF THE HOOK

DOWNer

The only band I've gotten excited about recently is Bell X1. The lyric that hooked me was "I am not over you, can I get back under?" I caught an acoustic show in Louisville, KY and was blown away!

Also: The Sheepdogs and Fictionist are two really good VERY new bands.

I'm getting into this band Low, thinking they were some new good tunes. Epic fail on my part, they've been around since freakin '94.

They've got a new series of videos up on YouTube, performing songs from their upcoming album in a one shot/one take, acoustic setting. This one is especially nice:
