  • 10 great ones:

    1. Billy Bragg - check out the song "A New England". folk punk at its best.

    2. The 101ers - joe strummer. need i say more?

    3. Monsters Are Waiting - a new band just starting out that has been criminally overlooked. the female lead singer has a better voice then debbie harry. the band might have some maturing to do, but the songs fascination and christine show that the future is bright.

    4. Midlake - great harmonies. great dark folk rock with a radiohead bend. Roscoe is a great song.

    5. Tapes and Tapes - I like the song the illiad.

    6. 11th Dream Day - Check out the song "lately i've been thinking" for some great garage rock. Zeros and Ones is the new album and I really like it.

    7. Guillemots - a great british band. great song writers

    8. Hot Chip - feel good electronica.

    9. Parts and Labor - stay afraid is the album to check out. an interesting noise band with great songwriting. Check out the song. "the great divide".

    10. Serge Gainsbourg - only if you are looking for something really different.
  • Kent and Mew both fucking rule. Midlake and I have mutial friends. They're good dudes.

    I reeeeeeally hope no one here names Devendra Banhart. He's quite possibly the most overrated "musician" in the past five years, next to Jack White.

  • I saw this awesome band from New Mexico a few years back called The Gluey Bros. Their albums are okay..kinda Parliament meets Beck meets Wierd Al..but their live shows are off the hook. Check em' out if they come your way.
