What great band have you just discovered?

Paolo Nutini-makes me feel really good-great early morning music to set the tone of the day..

Thievery Corporation-pretty trippy, great to unwind and indulge in a dank bowl after a tough day..
 
Jens Lekman - Nice delicate acoustic coffeehouse folk*
A Sunny Day in Glasgow - Shoegazey, poppy, noise

yea, but I'm not so hot about Sondre Lerche... it just seems kinda trite. But... I'm very picky and don't necessarily like similar artists. It just doesn't do it for me. It took a looooong time for me to appreciate Jens, his 2007 album is what I really like; his previous works never got me excited or interested.
 
Not really a "band" but I just discovered The Avalanches and their 2001 release Since I Left You. It is a great record.

No policy, just snobbery ;)

jens lekman = acoustic coffeehouse folk? i love night falls over kortedala but wouldn't describe it like such.
 
I've know of MGMT for some time now, but of recent I've had Time to Pretend and Oracular Spectacular playing pretty constantly. I like it, a lot.
 
I'm not sure if they're called Chicken Feet or -Feed but I heard part of one song that I liked on the radio, some hard rock stuff that I'm waiting to hear again. I must have the name really wrong because a google search got me nowhere.
 
Pretty Lights

Big Gigantic

both have free downloads of their albums on their websites

The Parlor Mob

Reed Thomas Lawrence

Wendy Darling

White Buffalo

all found because of the fact that I am going to Rothbury festival and these are new additions that i started looking into. I have found that going to live shows and seeing opening acts and festies with rather unknown artists are great ways to find new music
 
Plants and Animals. Cool band...their album Parc Avenue has been on heavy rotation. If you dig on Arcade Fire at all, you'll like these guys.
