Brainiac - is very underrated. Anyone who likes 'Nevermind' (nirvana) would crap their pants when they hear 'Smack Bunny Baby' by this bunch. They got a in your face kinda attitude and their music shows it. Smack Bunny Baby was there first album and the most traditional, as they made more albums they started adding more electronic components to the music. When i first heard them i was hooked for a month straight.

YOURCODENAMEIS:MILO - a criminaly underrated textbook deffinition of what popular 'indie' music should be. Indie in an at the drive-in way, not all this audible litter poluting mtv and fuse.

Les Savy Fav - similar to YOURCODENAMEIS:MILO & ATD-I. In short, a verse-chorus-verse band that dosent suck ass. There not 'Heavy' persay, but then good luck finding anything heavier than Lightning Bolt (lemme know if you do find something heavier than lightning bolt tho lol)
