    I've always admired a 250 pound man with Dreadlocks who can consistently sound like he's imitating a 5 year old girl while getting kicked in the nads.

    If I had to pick one it would be the New Pornographers, a band I was introduced to on this site, by that woman from New Zealand via Louisiana whose nickname I don't remember.

    That’s it! Thank her for me if you wouldn’t mind. I would have heard about them eventually but it was kind of fun to hear about them here first. :) If’s she’s still into the alternative music thing tell her to check out this link.

    Nevermind, I forgot about Interpol and A PERFECT CIRLCE PWNS MORE!1

    Yes, I'll also be in the general population at the Interpol concert next week. Sweet, it is.

    Edit- If we're going LIVE bands, Muse, APC and The Mars Volta top 'em all.

    The Sounds are great. They have really good live shows.

    Billy Talent, I haven't heard in ages. Are you Canadian by any chance? I don't know many American fans of Billy Talent.

    i think the best representative for the decade as far as "body of work" and "cultural significance" goes to the White Stripes.

    and also, for a different name, i like where The Black Keys are headed.
