I wanted to recommend the Org some Bands This is mainly directed at the American orgers who don't see too much of the UK Rock/Indie music scene which is in full swing at the moment.
Here's some bands I recommend: White Rose Movement www.myspace.com/whiterosemovement My favourite band at the moment. A brilliant combination of party rock jams combined with electronic synths. Just awesome, with a brilliant sing. Even better when drunk and partying. I don't think there is a single bad track on their album "Kick" - it's all just consistent and..well, brilliant! Metric www.myspace.com/metricband A really great chick-fronted band. She's great singer too. Again, upbeat stuff...Monster Hospital is the best track. The Infadels www.myspace.com/infadels A great band. Another combo of indie with electronica. The track "Love Like Semtex" is easily the best, but sadly they only have some dance remix on their myspace. Muse www.myspace.com/muse A pretty well-established rock band; I'm always surprised when people haven't heard of them. Their latest album is a total departure from their usual stuff - it's much more poppy, but I actually prefer it. Some really great and inadvertently comic rock anthems in this album about Knights, and Mars...and stuff. The Earlies www.myspace.com/theearlies They haven't released a new album in a while but their last album was brilliant. A genuine 60s hippy vibe going on. A brilliant album to relax to with some genuinely amazing tunes that make your head go all funny as if you've just taken a kilo of smack. Bloc Party www.myspace.com/blocparty There was a lot of hype about this band since they brought a new and fresh sound to the scene that a lot of people loved (I at the time hated it). Since then we've had so many copycats they don't sound that new - however I've recently come to love their album and I recommend them to you all now. The lead singer is a big Prince fan too, so yeah - you should support him. Stereodistas www.myspace.com/stereodistas Some really obscure, unsigned band from Windsor - they seem pretty average but one of their songs, Stevie Wonder, really got lodged in my head. Hope you all enjoy! | |

I already knew about Metric, Cousens! And Poster of a Girl is the best one. [Edited 8/20/06 10:52am] | |

Listen, BAUMEISTER. The rest of the Org may not know of Metric! Plus, the singer is hot as a warmed-up brownie covered in Brandy Cream. | |

You haven't heard The Dears yet. Homey sounds just like Morrissey. | |

I already have that last Metric album. It's great. MTV's Subterranean show has showed the "Monster Hospital" video a few times.
A lot of my friends like White Rose Movement. I love "Love is A Number". I've been thinking about picking their album up if I ever see it. The problem is that I never see it. There was a lot of hype about Bloc Party in the U.S. last year. I've seen a few of their videos on MTV also and their sound is cool, but I was never motivated enough to get 'Silent Alarm'. | |

Download the album - White Rose Movement are worth it. Plus..amazon? | |

Plus they're not that big in America, at least, no americans I spoke to knew of them. | |

I like Metric quite a lot... they get a lot of airtime here. She has a really great voice. "Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind"-Dr Seuss
