Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath is about all that matters.

Placebo and Matisyahu are far from shit. :d

IAMX

Adore IAMX. I’ve been a big fan since the guy sang for Sneaker Pimps.

Right now I’m really into Kidneythieves and Dir En Grey

I could totally use some new bands. It’s been ages since I caught on to something new…besides the aforementioned.

The Whitest Boy Alive (lead singer is Orland Oye from Royksopp)
I’ve yet to hear a bum track from them yet, its good shite!
check out "Burning"

I enjoyed that track man. Looks like I’ll have a new obsession for a bit :love:

I feel like I should recommend a track for Kidneythieves…maybe Spank

Oh yeah, and Diru…maybe Jesus Christ R’nR

been listening to kidneythieves, not bad. There a track called Zerospace remixed by Q-Burns Abstract. We are having him out to DJ our next event.

Empire of the Sun
check out "walking on a dream"

I was obsessssssed with this song when it came out. The video’s shit though 🙁

Does Katy count as new (hush, Lukey :-*)?

She’s better than Ashlee. THERE I SAID IT 😮 😮 😮

I’m sorry, Ashlee ;_;;

regina spektor and jade valerie, although they aren’t exactly new

neg, ashlee is so much better than katy, with the exception of hot n cold.

2 bands have recently caught my interest.
UFO and Saxon.

I been listening to Alice Russell, her voice is tits!!

She has a White Stripes – Seven Nation Army cover, its niiiiice

Vivian Girls
check out "where do you run"

They sound like wonderful harsh girls! <3 I’ll check them out live next week.

Okay, recent new discoveries:

Bardo Pond

Very awesome band, discovered them pretty late but still, it’s just a very nice eclectic noisy and mainly psychedelic mix of styles all into one neat 90s band.

Moccasin

One of many modernday space rock bands. Stuff like this is just a wonderful wave of sounds which I’m just getting into, really.

Mountains In The Sky

Splendid Australian electronic post-rock.

Nick Drake

Already knew him but only by name. So to me I still see him as a very underground artist, just as my dad has barely any idea who he was (and mind you, my dad’s knowledge on the 60’s period of music is rather large!)

Zeena Parkins

Electric harpist. ‘nough said, really. 😀 And apparently she played with dozens of awesome artists, so I’m still checking out all the side-projects and what not. Very neat. ~

THE
NEW
DEPECHEmODE!!

Not so much "New Band" but if i cant create a new thread i might as well bump this one. Besides the 1st officially release single "Wrong", I’ve heard a few tracks that have been leaked off of Sounds of the Universe and I’m already hooked!

Tix go on sale for SF (Shoreline Mt. View, CA) in less than 2 weeks!! EEk! Britts get Ladytron & Mode…. Lucky!!

Signed,
Fan-Boy

I’m digging on some Hank Green. He’s John’s brother. You know the one who wrote Looking for Alaska, An Abundance of Catherines and Paper Towns?

I love the Vivian Girls! I met the tall red-head last year when I went to see Sonic Youth in brooklyn. She gave me a hug ~ =)

Yeah The Vivian Girls were so much fun to see live. ^^ !

..and I am jealous of you seeing Sonic Youth. ^_- Sure, Ndi told me they weren’t really friendly people after the gig, but still, they hardly appear over here. ~o~ And they’re still awesome!

<3 Kim Gordon

They didn’t seem all that bad. I mean, despite the fact that all the other bands at the venue chilled with the general crowd and they were the only ones that didn’t! But yeah, they are still totally awesome. They put on a great show too. They played 3 encores too ~ good times.

I’m sure they’ll play in fake france one day! Petition it! xD

I like a group called OURS

Nice! Saw SY at Lollapalooza… 93 or 94

Been listening to the Dum Dum Girls too, very similar to the Vivian Girls
