Strapping Young Lad
Strapping Young Lad is the—interesting—name of a Canadian metal band. Good driving rhythms and guitar work, with the typical growling vocals. Heard at The Designers Mixtape via web zen via Boing Boing.
Röyksopp
Röyksopp is a pretty cool electronic duo out of Norway. Hear yet again at The Designers Mixtape via web zen via Boing Boing.
Soilwork
Good Swedish metal band. I like, although they seem pretty derivative (i.e., nothing I haven’t heard a few times before). Heard at The Designers Mixtape via web zen via Boing Boing.
The Black Keys
These guys rock, in a bluesy kind of way. Great guitar & drums band. Just picked up thickfreakness off of eMusic and it is excellent. I had previously gotten Rubber Factory from the same place.
Roller Girls by The Soviettes
I’d heard The Soviettes before, of course, but not this song. Good stuff — kind of reminds me of a soft-core L7 Minneapolis punk at its finest. From their album, LP III.
