Beirut is one of my favourite bands, I play many of their songs on the guitar, "chicks dig it" hehe
Empire of the Sun is cool,
Mana is mexican, right? Haven't heard them in a while...
Gotta check those that I don't know.

Dead Kennedys. I love that raw punk. Of course they sound a lot more clean and polished on cd's but there's something about that live energy

Great thread! A lot of cool alt rock comes out of my home town of Halifax, Canada.
Check out these bands: Sloan, Winter sleep, Matt May and El torpedo, Joel Plaskett, the Trews, etc.
Back in the mid 90s, Halifax was said to be "the next Seattle", (in Rolling Stone or Spin) not too sure what happened, but it didn't blow up like some predicted.

I listen to 98% hip-hop and I like to find underground guys to listen to. Childish Gambino is good, he raps about being a nerdy Black guy and sexing Asian girls. I like Immortal Technique, he's a Peruvian socialist rapper from Harlem. He has real good content: gentrification in NYC, how cocaine gets from S. America to your local dealer, etc.

That guy was so fucked up. Half of Anal Cunt's songs are about smoking crack and shooting heroin, and Seth definitely walked the walk. The picture of him getting blown by the groupie while shooting up is awesome though.
