Spoon - Don't You Evah

I skipped out on a chance to see these guys this summer, I hope in the end I don't regret it.

MuteMath - Typical

Yes, this will be on this year's Outer Banks Mix, thus the tag. Quite possibly the first-ever band with a keytar that doesn't suck. Love the video.

World Leader Pretend - Bang Theory

Another band who I'm not sure even exists anymore. They hit from New Orleans just before Katrina hit. I know they played some benefit shows just after, but if they've done anything since, I don't know.

Interpol - Untitled

Every time I hear the opening to this song, I stop and say "goddamn."

Secret Machines - Nowhere Again

Discovered these guys on Subterranean in 2005 or so. They are long overdue for a new album
