Just a thought, who else knows about this glorious band? It's not the rap one might expect me to discuss, but alternative. Even if you don't like alternative, you owe it to yourself to listen to their songs at least once, as they are all amazing. At least, the ones found on the album We the Kings are.

If you'd rather not discuss my band of choice, tell me about your favorite band/artist. I'd like to know what everyone else obsesses about. ^_____________________^

I've heard of that Daft Punk. Apparently quite a few people are in love with them here. TELL ME MORE ABOUT THEM.

A two-man group who dresses as robots and makes severely overrated music. You've probably heard of Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger or Technologic. Both suck.

Listen to Da Funk or Voyager for some of their better instrumentals.

Agreed. They don't exactly suck, but they aren't that great.

I obsess about UK hardcore DJ's lately...Gammer, Kurt, Scott Brown, Joey Riot, Seduction, etc.

I love how they can make such beautiful sounds with their wonderful computers and giant webs of wires ^_^

DP is overrated electronica, but they do still have alot of good stuff.

Simian/the current Simian Mobile Disco is one of my current faves, as are the Chemical Brothers (yeah, they're the big time group, tons of music, and probably the most mainstream electronica you can find, but it's still good).

Also, Pendulum is an act that I've been following (Drum & Bass), but their new album isn't as good (Hold Your Color was incredible).

The Prodigy, of course.

but the current group gem that I've just stumbled upon (though I have heard their music before) is The Postal Service.  Although they only released one album, it's incredible.  Not so much heavy electronica, more electro pop stuff (called indietronica IIRC).  If you've played NHL '07 (don't think you have), they have a song in there. (dee doo   dee doo  dee doo   dee doo  dee-doo  doo daa doo dlaa doo bloop boop)
dun remember if the lyrics are in the NHL '07 game, but I don't think they are (I'll be the grapes fermented bottle served with a table set in my finest suit like a perfect gentleman... etc, called Brand New Colony).

also, Ladytron


I also found Audioslave's Out of Exile the other day, just sitting in my car.  don't know why I didn't listen to it earlier, because it's kickass.

I love Pendulum, although I haven't really been following them so I haven't heard their new album.

My friend is a much bigger fan, though.
