Nina Nastasia

I don't really love them but Sunburned hand of the man is pretty sweet now.

The Cure.
A while ago I was told I should like them because they sounded like The Smiths. I listened to the first singles compilation, and thought it wasn't very good. Then I listened to it again recently, and it was brilliant. So I went out and bought a few Cure albums and started styling my hair like Robert Smith (I don't anymore).

some i rently checked out and dug:

future rapper
ulver (i slept on these dudes for way to long)
atavist
the austerity program
autsitic daughters

Einstuerzende Neubauten. Halber Mensch is one of my top ten albums now.

The Lemonheaddssss

Couldn't have put it better myself, the first time I ever took pills was to CSS at a festival in Scotland, and of course that made them completely fucking sublime. They played an L7 cover, my freinds a massive L7 fan, and we rushed into the crowd and rocked out, after they'd finished that track my freind remembered he was scared of crowds and was surrounded by drunken Scots, my, how he screamed. It wasn't just my intoxication that made it so good, I bought their LP a couple of weeks later, and it gets regular play. Seriously, check them out!
