Some great unsigned bands that everyone should check out:
Assemble The Skyline
Sunderland
Farewell Fighter
The Material
...I think thats all I can think of right now

Am I the only one who finds the Menzingers' cover completely detestable? Stretchy cleavage...grody.

I've just been running through my mp3 player. Rode a bus from PA to NYC and back again yesterday. Blasted music the whole time. Good stuff.

Weatherbox - Follow the Rattle of the Afghan Guitar
Fun. - Some Nights
Fleetwood Mac - Greatest Hits

been listening to these lovely records for the past 3 weeks or so, all of them definitely recommendable:

silverstein - short songs
the menzingers - on the impossible past
the jealous sound - a gentle reminder
jimmy eat world - futures
no trigger - tycoon
god is an astronaut - god is an astronaut
caspian - the four trees
state lines - hoffman manor

and I need some more, so if anyone has any suggestions I'll take them!

Botch.
