ahhh I was just reminded of this as I was goin' through records to put on. I found a 7" by this one CHicago band called Sally. They were awesome. except they broke up and well...now the lead singer does crappy stuff like this

One of the few local acts that I used to give a shit about:

Nice Purse. Cutesy weird-folk shit. It's gotten a bit unbareable since Hope left and they replaced her with my roomie's ex-boyfriend but they were good while they lasted.

Been called "minneapolis' answer to animal collective". A bit brash of a statement but they're an interesting little hypnapop group.

Also, Minneapolis is the home of Rhymesayer's and Doomtree so we have lots of fucking hip-hop. Everyone knows Atmosphere and POS but if you haven't heard, check all off the following:
Dessa(I FUCKING LOVE DESSA)
Paper Tiger(definitely one of the best upcoming producers)
Brother Ali
Hieroglyphics
Eyedeas and Abilities


Also, bobtrotter and my buddy alex do some interesting dubstep work but I don't think any of it reaches further than the dingy basement I see them perform it in.
