Fuck yeah Days Away. I just started listening to them on a whim a couple of months ago, and Mapping is a freaking incredible album.

Acceptance.

The Hanks - Distance
Long Since Forgotten - All The Things You Said
The Rocking Horse Winner - State Of Feeling Concentration
Osker - Idle Will Kill
Before Braille - The Rumor
Ariel Kill Him - Alpha Is Down
Grade - Under The Radar

Everything Weatherbox has done

Staring Back - On

Send Us a Signal is amazing!

My picks:
Spitalfield - Remember Right Now (it's really not cited enough in "pop-punk classics" discussions)
The Juliana Theory - Emotion is Dead
Last Days of April - Angel Youth
The New Amsterdams - Worse for The Wear
Paulson - All At Once

I'm glad to see someone mention Lucky Boys Confusion... great band that is not as well known as they should be

Absolutely LOVE Augustana's Cant Love Cant Hurt. Their best by far to me. Obviously I love the Days Away record. I sat in the office when we at FBR received it and I was like yeah that's a cool record. Took it home, listened like 4 times over night and came in and was like "this is one of the best records i've ever heard". Takes a listen or 3 but holy shit it sinks in.

Also, The Snake The Cross The Crown "Mander Salis". Criminally underrated.

Uhhhh yes. Audio Karate is a fucking awesome band and Lady Melody is like a near-perfect album. Good call.

Spitalfield baby! Amazing record.

i was gonna add Spitalfield to my list too, but i feel like that one is talked about pretty frequently on this site. it's definitely still underrated, but i wouldn't say it's toooooo under the radar. at least not in the AP community.

northstar - is this thing loaded / pollyanna
okay, they got some great exposure by TBS, but any mention about northstar outside this website, now, or ever, people go.. "who?"


OH and acceptance - phantoms.

I wrote an article a couple weeks ago about artists living under the radar for Hypebot. Got to interview some great artists like Barcelona, Paper Route, and House of Heroes. You guys should check it out here.

"I linked all of them to their streaming versions on Rdio, so now you have no excuse to not check them out."

Don't you have to pay for Rdio? Or are you just referencing the ability to stream the samples?

i'll add :
basically everything Engine Down and Dear & The Headlights have done
Driver Friendly - Bury A Dream
City Of Ships - Minor World
Joshua - Choices
