We can use this thread to post new bands we've just discovered that we want to share with everyone. I'll start with The Gaslight Anthem. Check them out at their website or on myspace

Underground rap.

M83

My sister-in-law told me about this French group.

One of my friends told me to check out a band called Mute Math. Good Alternative rock/electronic stuff.

Yngwie J. Malmsteen: For a couple years now I've been hearing his name, mostly in interviews with metal guitarists where he's listed as an influence, so I finally got some albums.

The guy can play a guitar like nobody's business. I haven't been so enthralled by a guitarist since Buckethead.

All mine tend to be sort of 'general rock' as that's the main stuff I listen to and I don't really like any kinda of metal (with the odd exception) or indie.

The Night Marchers - John Reis' new project involving a few members of Hot Snakes. Goes for a bit of the old rock 'n' roll style (Bo Diddley, Status Quo) mixed with the new.

Apollo Up! - excellent three-piece from Nashville. Singer sounds a bit like John Reis of Rocket from the Crypt/Hot Snakes/Night Marchers fame and their songs are full of awesome little riffs and memorable hooks.

Faraquet - three-piece, sort of reminds me of Rx Bandits with the stop-start changing of time signature and stuff.

Nothern Kings

Tarot

the latter is one of the original finnish metal bands...the dude in my sig, Marco Hietala, is the bassist and vocalist, his brother Zac also plays guitar. They truely rock.
The former, NK, Marco is a member of just in voice though. He said this was a fun tongue in cheek project that became something bigger, and pretty cool. Take non metal tunes, make them metal.

Bluntengel from Germany (sorry if I misspelt that!)

Basic Element, Recover Project. (some great euro-techno!)
