introduce a band to oot via youtube and wikipedia

[astroglide]

live at the rhythm hive - the make-up (the singer's page has a lot more details)

please follow along: youtube link, wikipedia link.

i don't know what percentage of oot is in the same boat, but i haven't really heard belle & sebastian, neutral milk hotel, sufjan stevens, etc. i lumped it all into the "music for bloggers" category. so as far as i'm concerned, just about any indie/hipster stuff is fair game. let's just not do metallica, billy joel, kelly clarkson, or anything else almost everyone has heard.

edit 1: rap is allowed, just don't start big fights about it.

edit 2: try to make it something we can easily buy (itunes, amazon, best buy) if we like it.

sure, i just ask that any big arguments/discussions about it are taken outside. to me, the rap threads tend to have frequent, protracted, and uninteresting fights.

Get the feeling this has been posted before, but I just got it sent to me by a friend. Also it was apparently on the Colbert report. Cool video, catchy song.

Awesome thread. I just started listening to this bands new album and I really like it. I'll be checking out their older stuff soon.

Placebo

Song to Say Goodbye

Blackbud

They're a really bluesy rock band (in the Hendrix/Cream/Zeppelin sense) but the singer has a voice very similar to Jeff Buckley's.

A dodgy live recording of a gig i went to, featuring the end of one song, Heartbeat, and then another, Days Passing Away, it features a lot jamming
