The Virgins are pretty good. Rich Girls, Private Affair and Teen Lovers are nice songs.

I agree! I feel like Modest Mouse is under appreciated, there one of those bands that most people don't like because they don't like there singles they hear on the radio, but those are like there worst songs. If people actually listen to there albums I think they'll really like em.

I really love Polock, a Spanish group (English lyrics). Check "Faster love" in youtube. They sound like The Strokes
