GODSPEED YOU! BLACK EMPEROR is the shit

Try 'Idiot Pilot' listen to " a day in the life of a poolshark" its electronica so you might like it.

Yes, daft punk is the shit, if you like them, check out Justice, they are the new daft punk of the millenium! (and their on daft punks label too)


also, if you like any psy-trance, check infected mushroom, they are quite good! anything off "im the supervisor" is great

myspace.com/jbonamassa straight blues rock best guitarist allaround ability/emotion today in my opinion

myspace.com/eddiehazel listen to his cover of california dreamin if it is on there. you said you like seventies he is from the seventies. just trippy ass guitar riffs and solos.

no one is going to listen to me on these, and they are going to regret it.

Cursive
Bright Eyes
Animal Collective
the Faint
the Decemberists
At the Drive In
Minus the Bear
Blonde Redhead

listen to all the above bands if you wanted to hear the watered down shit the record companies disguise as profound and anti corporate.

dispatch, OAR, ben harper, matisyahu, slightly stoopid, the expendables, illScarlett
