I would like to find a new band that I can listen to. sigur ros, sufjan stevens, death cab, beulah, portishead, mercury rev, great northern, eels, jose gonzalez, yo la tengo, broken social scene, wilco, sebadoh, modest mouse, bjork, mum, (old) beck, mogwai, MGMT, stars, the shins, animal collective, band of horses, mellowdrone, devendra banhart, godspeed! you black emperor, espers, badly drawn boy, the decemberists, and bloc party. Any suggestions for good new music would be greatly appreciated. The best answer goes to the band that I like the most.
Update:Ok, as of now, the bands that I like from this list are
Dr. Dog
Neutral Milk Hotel
MUTEMATH
Minus the Bear
New Young Pony Club
Voicst
Dear and the Headlights
Nine Black Alps
The Script
The Automatic
Andrew Bird
Islands
The Long Winters
Suburban Kids with Biblical Names
Wintersleep
Patrick Wolf
Wolf Parade
and
Thao with the Get Down Stay Down
Which puts Jay in the lead... and Whoop! at a not so close second place. I will not, however, decide on the winner until this thread's three days is over. That provides a lot of room for anyone to seize the lead.
