MIX

I love exploring new music, but it's so difficult to find great artists popular or otherwise.

Post the names of artists that make such great music that they deserve a little more exposure or public knowledge. They can be indie or they can be big in one country and you feel that more people in your country should know about them.

It would also be awesome to post the title of some of their best songs so other people can discover them and see how great they are.

The Go! Team "Ladyflash", "Huddle Formation", "Milk Crisis"
Elise Estrada "Poison", "These 3 Words"
Killola "All of My Idols are Dead", "Barrel of Donkeys"
Skye Sweetnam "Human", "Kiss A Girl", "Smoke and Mirrors"
Vanilla Ninja "Heartless", "Tough Enough"
The Grammar Club "Heart T*ts", "Balloon Fight", "My Gay Shirt"
Girlicious "Here I Am", "Left Over"
Heartsdales "Foxy Lady", "Candy Pop"
Hot B*tch Arsenal "Double Down Quick"
Jonathan Coulton "W's Duty", "I Feel Fantastic"

Go forth and contribute. Let the world know what sounds good to you.

Mika Miko sounds great. They've got an old-school punk sound.

I like Adele, also. The video for "Chasing Pavements" was amazing.

First off, let me say that this is nothing against you or your taste in music. if you love something, go on and keep loving it.

but. . .
on average, tickets for the BMG are 100 bucks. They've been nominated for a Grammy award. hundreds of thousands of people see them each year in Vegas. and as far as painted white people banging on crap like a low rent version of STOMP! you'd be hard pressed to find anyone more famous.

sorry, the fact that they paint their selves blue in some non-committed, half-assed commentary on race, really pisses me off. it's a castrated, disney version of black face that lacks any meaning or edge. especially when you consider that it's just another group of rich white guys trying to pass of a dying trend as something more than a novelty.

they are to painted faced musicians what the Insane Clown Posse is to painted face musicians. a joke that's not so funny and lacks any real purpose. especially when considering the validity of their statement.

for a more relevant group of of percussionists, that have a much more reaching message about class, status and race. I suggest paying a visit to the subway and seeing the local bucket drummer.

Actually, I only "discovered" the band a week ago (got DVD with their concert) and it was awsome. I love this band! :)

I got "When I Smile" by Free Moral Agents off of one of those Adult Swim compilation albums and I liked it. They're creative.

Ok so I heard The Pillows Originally from Adult Swims airing of FLCL and fell in love with them. This is the song of FLCL but check out their other stuff not sure if their unsigned or even have a huge following (I know anime fans love them).

フリクリ (FLCL) FTW.

Yeah. They're The Pillows. I don't know what kind of following they've got, but they've released a few albums. Good pick here.

I must agree. That is one of the better songs I've heard of hers. Also, so glad epic-fu is finally back.
