New bands for me to listen to

[SerenityNigh]

I need your help to pick me a new band/musician, as my favorites are either retired or should retire (radiohead), dead (RIP MCA), or can't be arsed to reunite (The Strokes)*. Eagerly awaiting your crap responses.

*Still like The Strokes, but you can see how closely I follow music.

Aren't the Stokes bringing out a new album this year?

Little mix.

Hah, maybe so. I guess I should keep up with them? I remember reading that the last album they recorded at separate times because they couldn't get along, plus Hammond and and Casablancas are doing their solo stuff. Ok, so 2 out of 3 are/should be done.

*Doesn't need to be new music, just new to me.

should retire (radiohead)

Take that back.

Take that back.

I love them, but their best days are behind them.

They're bloody awful live.

Paid good money to see them, and they barely spoke, yet alone look arsed about being interested!

Try Shields by Grizzly Bear.

I'm not sure, TKOL wasn't my favourite, but In Rainbows before it was stunning. I think they'll release something new in the next month or so (they've just announced a world tour today), I have pretty high hopes for something good.

 

[GlosBlue]

What about The Dead Weather and The Kills? They are good (not heard the latest Kills album though).

Or go through the Chemical Brothers back catalogue from the start!

I am definitely buying the new album and will gladly be wrong, but I can only produce so much unrequited enthusiasm and I've currently spent it all on Everton.

Alabama Shakes

Perhaps these might suit you:

Motopony
Ambulance LTD
Django Django
School of Seven Bells (earlier albums)
Besnard Lakes
Bear in Heaven (highly recommend)
Tame Impala (which I'm sure you already know)

These guys are new to me this very day, Wussy:



I think they're kinda ace.
