Dang, I'm even more out of touch than I thought - I only know maybe a dozen of those songs. Nice to see Foxygen make the list, they were my only real discovery of the year. I'll have to check out the songs on this list when I have time. -
I am listening to this a lot - Wild Cub - soooo happy

I was thinking more "Echo and the bunny men" meets Joy Division, but basically everything I like recently sounds either like Joy Division (Soft Moon, She Wants Revenge) or MogwaiOriginally posted by johnnya24 View Post"You know what's wrong with America?

Apparently John Belushi was the one that got them on the show. They only let them on if he promised to stand by and make sure no damage was done (after hearing reports of how their shows in LA go).Originally posted by eldiablo505This was on Saturday Night Live, LOL. They caused $200,000 worth of damage. At the 4:17 mark you can hear Ian MacKaye from Minor Threat yell "New York sucks!!!!"

On a Wildhearts kick today. I was watching some live shows from England and it's crazy to see how many people they get at their shows and they come to New York and play in front of 200 people at best.

Squirrel Bait!!!
Holy crap. So I always heard the name and for some reason thought they were a mellow band. It's guys from Slint before Slint. I always assumed they sounded like Slint, who are mellow/minimalist post-punk band. Very good and ground breaking but somehow it made me not listen to Squirrel Bait. I was reading a book about Husker Du last week and in it Bob Mould talks about being really impressed with Squirrel Bait and how they were one of a few bands that had the energy and loudness of Husker Du. Well, I had to listen to these guys now and I am so glad I did.
Look at how young they were in the pictures in the video. Teenagers! Unreal.

I have been listening to the first two Iron Maiden albums and love them much more than any of the Dickinson albums. They just sound rawer..more stripped down..the guitars sound better...why I don't know??
