walter meego is sick

[4th Street]

I'm gonna be biased and say the acts on our roster first:

Buswell - buswellmusic.com (UK boy/girl indie folk/post-rock)
The Flaming Moes - theflamingmoes.net (Swedish indie pop)
Ox - oxmusic.ws (Canadian alt-country)

Then I'd also recommend the following:

Paula Valstein - NY songwriter, got a hint of Buckley about her
Vijay Kishore - Talking of Buckley, this guy's the Brummy version for me. Amazing vocals.
Beirut - Great band which sadly I hear have just split. Not positive on that though.
65 Days Of Static - Amazing live instrumental band, with stunning visuals. recently supported The Cure in the US and are currently touring the UK. Check out their dates.

That'll do for starters. I have hundreds of bands I could recommend.

Kind of Girl's new single 'Slave To Your Charms' is great.

I'd say Bon Iver is the best emerging talent at the moment.

@ 4th Street - Beirut broke up? That breaks my heart.

The NME (I know, I know...) have been pointing me in the direction of some decent new bands recently. I like goFASTER>> - bit like The Futureheads, only more witty (like The Arctic Monkeys - oh no! I'm lapsing into 'lazy journalism' mode!) Team Waterpolo are interesting. Don't usually like 'happy indie' and their stuff is VERY happy! Both are on a compilation by, er, CatCutter Records called 'A Sketch For Summer'. Brandon Steep on there as well, though I think it's meant to be new bands. The Steep have been around for a few years. Saw them support The Lodger, who are a great band.

New bands - I could go on...

[Miss. A. Nonymous]

I have to agree...Bon Hiver is def up there for me right now.

Hey All. Albert Hammond Jr. (Strokes Guitarist) just released his second solo project entitled "Como Te Llama" it is sooo rad and definately worth checking out!

[seanmwalsh10]

Underground Railroad

NME tipping them as the "best alt.rock band of 2008" so I hear. Seen them play in London - quality. They are on MyySpaace.

The Nouvelles, manchesters next big band, seen them @ the Academy and they certainly Rock
