The Summer of Music
I've loved exactly 5 new "mainstream" bands in the last couple decades. They are, in roughly the order I discovered them:
Material Issue
The Flaming Lips
Death Cab for Cutie
Fountains of Wayne
Fleet Foxes
Material Issue is sadly defunct (it went when it's lead singer committed suicide in 1996. RIP Jim Ellison) Never saw them live.
However, the next 3 months are gonna be genius: Fleet Foxes at Red Butte Gardens on Friday the 22nd. Death Cab for Cutie on August 22nd at the E-Center (I can't get used to calling it the "Maverik Center".) Flaming Lips on September 17 at Saltair.
Damn!
