Besides Wilco who are your favorite bands


Recommended Posts

To help you out a little--Ys isn't her first album and technically it's not out yet. The street date for the disc isn't until Nov. 14. You think you dig Ys, you should check out The Milk-Eyed Mender.

 

Onto the question at hand:

 

Six Organs of Admittance

Wooden Wand & the Vanishing Voice

Hush Arbors

Magik Markers

Sun City Girls

Animal Collective

Racc-oo-oon (their first album is terrible, but since then they've really been spectacular)

Radar Bros.

Fiery Furnaces (although Matt's solo discs are mediocre at best)

Richard Buckner

 

Have you heard of:

The Skygreen Leopards

Lavender Diamond (my personal favourite at the moment)

and

Oakley Hall

....cos, if you haven't, I think you'd like some or all of them.

 

Edit: what's wrong with the url linking?

I wish I could be more High Fidelity-esque with this list but here we go anyway:

Guster (because theyre fun and exciting but not because they are partial sell-outs and i hate the dave fans who associate themselves with Guster), the Raconteurs (All that is rock right now besides Wilco), Jack Johnson (on hiatus though), John Mayer (Continuum is the leaning towards the making of a future blues God), Ben Folds, Ben Kweller, The White Stripes, the Old 97s & Rhett Miller (saw him live last april, amazing), Ben Gibbard & Death Cab (semi-guilty pleasure), Kings of Leon, the Jayhawks, Kanye West (cmon Chi-town), Matt Costa, The Shins, The New Pornographers, Matisyahu, Andrew Bird, Jenny Lewis & The Watson Twins, Bright Eyes, Mason Jennings, Sima Cunningham

I've been listening to them for a couple of months now but I want to definitely emphasize The Avett Brothers. If you get a chance to see them, do not miss the opportunity. Your throat will hurt from all the cheering and your face will hurt from all the smiling, but it's all worth it in the end. I would recommend Live Volume 2 (there is no volume one, just funny titling and somewhat reflective of their live sound) and Mignonette (studio album). Their latest EP, the Gleam is a quieter disc, but has some nice tunes, especially 'When I Drink'.
