Im telling you, check out Dr. Dog...also if you have time and are not afraid of new things check out My Morning Jacket...their album "Z" is great.

When I said it was dead I meant that it is dead as a respected genre that reaches the people and enjoys the popularity that it used to...I like quite a bit of modern underground/indie stuff, but for the most part, musically I live in the past because that's when quality music actually affected the cultural landscape, instead of being relegated to arcane status while the masses dine on mindless assembly-line pop. I get a lot of shit for living mostly in the past, but I say who does it hurt? I'll listen to what I want to and other people can enjoy the same liberty.

And no, I'm not inherently afraid of new things...that was a little offensive. I've heard some Dr. Dog, and they're pretty great.
