Anyone want to make a prediction of what band will break out this year as the indie darling? Let's see, Arcade Fire really wins the latter half of 2004 and all of 2005, with Clap Your Hands running second. Or did I miss someone?
My guess, and a release I'm really looking forward to: birdmonster. Yea, sucky name.
website: http://www.birdmonster.com/ (http://www.birdmonster.com/)
myspace: http://www.myspace.com/birdmonster (http://www.myspace.com/birdmonster)
I can't stop listening to All The Holes in the Walls.
I suppose Artic Monkeys is already on the verge of being the new band of the year. Anyone else got any guesses?
-
I thought Sufjan Stevens was THE breakout indie artist of 2005. Or does the album have to be a first effort for the artist to be "breakout"?
-
Well, we might be splitting hairs; he was the critical darling, for sure. I was mroe referring to a band where their name will become "known" for the first time. First, or maybe second release type of thing.

i think breakout can just mean, becoming wildly successful all of a sudden.
doesnt have to be thier first album.
lets just hope 2006 isnt the Arctic Monkeys or soemthing like that...
-
i suspect the AMs will be this years "breakout" artist given the amount of money they reportedly got from Epic records... mucho promo money will make them this years Strokes, shame the Jam didn't get that kind of care and handling in the US once upon a time.
-
I suspect by the time the Arctic Monkeys make their third record, all of their fickle fans will have become bored with them, forcing them to take on a completely new sound.
-
I'll go with We Are Scientists.
-
Is it me or do the Arctic Monkeys sound like a second rate copy of the libertines?

Ding ding ding.

Wait, I thought Bloc Party or The Killers were 2005. Wah-wah.
Anyhow, yeah, We Are Scientists is a decent call.
I'll toss in The Talk. :)

Agreed. It's too bad their show coming up isn't in D.C., they put on a good show last year at Black Cat and opening for Hot Hot Heat. But there's no way I'm trekking to Sonar on a school night.
-
I'll go with Hard-Fi
-
um...SIMON DAWES!!
If not in '06, it'll happen in '07. One of these days the whole world will catch on.

See, this is something interesting. I don't know if their fans are fickle or not. I know that they are another in a long line of British "buzz" bands, but people who have seen them live (people I respect) say they have the goods.
Also, there's something to the "cool" issue when fans discover a band on their own. Not via the press. Or a radio station. Or even a blog. But through word of mouth only. Same thing as what I call the "Phish Phactor". I'm convinced that half those Phish Phans just loved that their band didn't get airplay, didn't sell a gazillion records, and that they "discovered" the band without subscribing to anything mainstream (especially before the Internet was a factor). The "underground" factor played a part.
Artic Monkeys now has a lot of press, but they really didn't before their first single landed at #1 in the U.K.
-
I'm going with Love Is All. I cannot stop listening to that song on myspace.
-
I say there will be a european indie "breakthrough" for Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, since they are going to release their record in three weeks..
-
I have to agree with the We Are Scientists votes. They seem to be picking up steam. And they are pretty damn funny and likable. You can find their Letterman appearance here (http://www.wearescientists.com/news/). I'm still not completely won over by the songs, but I think seeing them live might do the trick.

I predict a new supergroop will headline Coachella.
Peaches, Iggy Pop, and Peaches & Herb.
Iggy, Peaches² and Herb

Wow, I now think you guys are totally right about We Are Scientists. I've heard more buzz about them in the last week than for any band in a long time.
-
Not eoungh poeple in We Are Scientists.
I'm going with Wolf Parade. Critics these days seem to love lots of people in a band.

I haven't heard these guys, bu they allegedly sound like a radio-friendly Interpol. They are a Geffen band that is priming their pump on myspace.
I take it this is the harbinger of the coming commercialization of indie rock.
It's 1991 all over again...

Artic Monkeys coming to 9:30 Monday, 3/27. VIA PITCHFORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I personally am not hyping this band, but you're pretty correct, it's Interpol sounding although not as "accessible" or "radio friendly" as people are making out. I could see them being a big OC-type band.

Some of the other DJs on Kool Rock Radio played them so much the past 1/2 year that I'm sick to death of them now. They are fairly decent if you like them but I've had my fill and pretty much agree with everything said above.

Originally posted by Julian, faux celeb-porn CONNOISSEUR:

they are okay...i think they're playing with electric six too...i will probably end up at that show so i'll decide how much i like them after that. what i've heard recorded is only alright. it still sounds too similar to me to the other stuff that is being put out

To be honest, this board isn't the best place to be asking about "breakout" bands of 2006. The drug of choice for most of you is Geritol! Ever hear of the term DADROCK? Look in your music collection. :p

Oh god, I was afraid someone was going to say this and I'm also afraid that you're right. This was one of the WORST bands I've ever seen; they opened for Kasabian and The Music in early '05 at the club. They were so bad I couldn't even stand to look at them. And now they're getting all this buzz. Blech.

So it's 2006, and now that the mainstream seems to have caught up to the dance-punk or post-punk or post-post-punk or whatever you want to call it scene, it's time to start calling for its death knell. Critical backlash against the so-called garage revival happened as soon as all the kids started imitating Nuggets tracks and claiming a Detroit lineage, and now that all the young bands seem be cutting their bangs diagonally and wearing suits to gigs, the signs are imminent that we're fast approaching critical mass and, ultimately, apathy.

Apathy, eh? So indie is the new alt-country?

I don't think alt-country ever has been on some cutting edge, or was ever the hot new trend. It always will have it's small core of unwavering, trend oblivious devotees though. Those people are certainly not apathetic toward it. I suppose the same could be said about garage rock.

Yeah the description in yesterday's post makes me want to run out and buy this one...
"The debut album from a female-fronted of ragtag popsters is crammed with big riffs, pep-rally chants and reach-for-the-sky-arena-rock choruses."
"Singer Chantal Claret's sugary-sweet voice enchants, especially when leading a cheerleader-style spell-out of the her bands name."

I'd like to see We Are Scientists, but My Old Kentucky Blog thinks it will be Morningwood. MOKB said they seem more radio- and mainstream-friendly.

im hoping the lovemakers will finally get their attention. sure they've been around since last year, and played the hell outta SF, NYC and LA (along with the lovely boys of She Wants Revenge), but hopefully they will get some love this year (no pun intended). and hopefully i will finally be seeing them playing with she wants revenge :)

From Entertainment Weekly on buzz Brit bands. Discuss:
U.K. Corral[/i]
EW reveals the best British indie bands -- We tell you why the Arctic Monkeys, the Rakes, and four others are on the verge
- by Leah Greenblatt
For every warm pint of ale England produces, it serves up a new buzz band â?? and downs them just as fast. With this cheat sheet, we'll separate the good, the bad, and the NME-hyperbolized, and reveal, perhaps, a true Next Big Thing.
ARCTIC MONKEYS Sound Like Sexy, arch dance-punk, with a smattering of Strokes-gone-Cockney style. Early Claim to Fame They've topped the U.K. singles chart and picked a fight with the Kaiser Chiefs; insufferable, and we love them already. The Goods An iTunes-only EP, I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor (Domino), available now; currently untitled full-length slated for Feb. 21 release.
NOISETTES Sound Like High-drama, heavily syncopated swagger-and-sway rock, spearheaded by incandescent frontwoman Shingai Shoniwa. Early Claim to Fame Shoniwa's distinctive stage style; American tour dates with Bloc Party and the Kills. The Goods Three Moods of the Noisettes EP (Low Altitude) available now; an as-yet-untitled album due sometime next spring.
NINE BLACK ALPS Sound Like Frill-free yet tuneful high-speed rock & roll, more interested in blowing amps than reinventing the wheel. Early Claim to Fame Garnering (some would say undeserved) comparisons to Nirvana; a recent tour with American up-and-comers Giant Drag. The Goods Self-titled EP available now on Tiny Evil; full-length Everything Is scheduled for late January/early February 2006.
THE RAKES Sound Like Butched-up Franzy-come-latelys with punchy, anthemic choruses and strict working-class mien. Early Claim to Fame Two hit singles in the U.K. (''Retreat'' and ''22 Grand Job'') and their attendant cheeky videos; contribution to the Gang of Four remix album. The Goods Current EP Retreat (Dim Mak), a U.K. album Capture/ Release (V2), and a new album due out this summer.
THE EDITORS Sound Like Dark, pensive, hooky; in other words, a lot like Interpol. A British band imitating an American band that sounds like several British bands? Yes! Early Claim to Fame Two very catchy singles, ''Bullets'' and ''Munich''; several well-received U.S. showcases. The Goods Back Room (Kitchenware) available now as an import; domestic release expected in April 2006.
ART BRUT Sound Like Sex Pistols snark, Spinal Tap silliness, and post-everything satire, with chords as few and fast as possible. Early Claim to Fame Clever, meta-rock lyrics; picking fights with both Bloc Party and Pete Doherty. The Goods Import Bang Bang Rock & Roll out on Fierce Panda; still unsigned over here, but just finished a round of high-profile U.S. tour dates.

Rock Review | Morningwood and We Are Scientists
Two Bands With One Message: Let's Dance[/b]
By KELEFA SANNEH, New York Times
Right now, EMI Music is promoting two New York bands hoping to ride danceable rock into the mainstream. Both released new albums on Tuesday, and both played the Bowery Ballroom this week. On Wednesday night it was Morningwood, the brash and shameless female-led group that just released its self-titled debut album through Capitol Records, an EMI subsidiary. And on Thursday night it was We Are Scientists, the sly and shameless all-male trio that just released its debut album, "With Love and Squalor," through Virgin Records, another EMI subsidiary.
What does Morningwood sound like? Mainly, it sounds like a major-label conference room. You can almost hear the executives chattering away in the background, reassuring one another that no group with loud guitars and a guy who used to be in the Wallflowers and strutting rhythms and lyrics about how N-N-New York girls have a-a-a-attitude - no group like that could possibly fail, right? Right? This is a band that's supposed to be lots of fun, and if you forget, the members are happy to remind you how much fun you're supposed to be having.
On Wednesday night, Chantal Claret, the lead singer, worked overtime to entertain the executives and the fans; it seemed she was hoping for a sea of fists in the crowd, though she got only a puddle. The band has one really good song, "Nth Degree," a disco-rock confection that lodges itself firmly in the brain before the second chorus even arrives; it sounded pretty good on Wednesday, though it sounds even better on record, with electronic effects on the vocals to make the song sound that much smoother.
But the Morningwood album also includes more than a few songs that are unnecessarily, even perversely, awful. The next record executive to complain about slumping CD sales should be forced to spend the day playing "Babysitter" on repeat, listening to Ms. Claret moan, "Your mama, mama, mama shouldn't let me baby-sit." At the Bowery Ballroom, she worked overtime to entertain: she brandished a baton; she climbed up to the balcony; during "Take Off Your Clothes," she invited a suspiciously well-prepared woman from the audience to strip onstage. When Ms. Claret sang she often rolled her eyes, and she wasn't the only one.
The members of We Are Scientists are just as eager to let listeners know they don't take themselves too seriously: on their CD cover, they are all holding kittens in front of their faces. The music finds a comfortable spot between the neo-wave band the Killers and the disco-punk band the Rapture, all spiky rhythms and yelpy vocals. And while Morningwood took the stage after a long recorded fanfare, the members of We Are Scientists just ambled on and, after a mumbled hello, started playing "This Scene Is Dead," which reduces a complicated night to a pithy refrain: "The night is young/ I'm blacking out/ But it's been fun."
Only 37 minutes long, "With Love and Squalor" is a modest little album that delivers on its promises: it's full of neatly turned-out songs, familiar-sounding but pretty sharp all the same. On Thursday the band played nimbly, propelled by Michael Tapper's skittering drums. During a guitar interlude in "Can't Lose," Chris Cain took a minute to fix a problem with his bass. Keith Murray, the guitarist and lead singer, kept playing but watched his bandmate's progress. "Time is running short," he said with a faint smile, and Mr. Cain finished just in time.
Near the end came one of the best songs, "It's a Hit." It's not, thank goodness, a smarmy joke about the record industry; it's a half-remembered story about a drunken encounter. "This was going so well, but I don't know what I did," Mr. Murray wailed. "All I really can tell is, I've been hit, I've been hit, I've been hit." While Morningwood tries frantically to start a party, the members of We Are Scientists act as if they're already at one, and almost ready to leave.

i saw those guys over the summer in LA...they started macking on stage, and it was thoroughly awkward. their music was fun and dancey though, i just couldn't get into it as much as i thought i'd be able to. their keyboardist is the funniest/creepiest guy on planet earth.

As i was thinking Indie Landfill time was peak forum...

My guess, and a release I'm really looking forward to: birdmonster. Yea, sucky name.

I can't stop listening to All The Holes in the Walls.
I suppose Artic Monkeys is already on the verge of being the new band of the year. Anyone else got any guesses?
On a whim, I clicked the link and their Myspace page from 15 years ago is still up!
-
Remember when this forum was populated by semi-cool young people talking about music instead of old dudes talking about home refinance and repair?
The memories almost make me forgive them for predicting bands like Birdmonster and We Are Scientists were the next big thing.
-
2006 makes me think of Art Brut - hey, what ever happened to them?
-
I frickin hate the fact people talk about home repair and mortgages!!
Part of the problem is there is no live music currently
And when i share something I think is pretty cool about music - like say the article about Toots- nobody cares
You are the worst offender Space...as you well know... anybody posts anything about music you troll and derail it...
I kind of think this board is pretty much dying at this point..Yada comes back and Julian made damn sure he would leave...when you only have 5 regulars that’s just not helpful
At this point I am still here by inertia and cause I like interacting with sidehatch..it’s not like we can go to concerts
-
2006 makes me think of Art Brut - hey, what ever happened to them?
New album this year or last? But basically like so many bands it was diminishing fan base followed by a break and even less fans
Main dude does some cool album cover paintings
You tell him what album you want and for about $100 he does a small painting in his own style after listening to album
He sends you painting, obviously, along with a few words on what he thought of album
-
I kind of think this board is pretty much dying at this point..Yada comes back and Julian made damn sure he would leave...when you only have 5 regulars that’s just not helpful
hanging on by threads, but not dead yet
I hope Yada isn't so thin-skinned on this point, but that's his decision
the irony is he was planning a backyard concert that would be the first live show since March
-
I am sure this board has nothing to do with G Love bbq
Once Yada made it clear he didn’t like it - and he has on multiple occasions- it should just fuckin stop
-

I'll be the first to admit that I'm one of the worst offenders when it comes to filling the empty space on the board. I miss live music too. This video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvsDpFFC2Js) really seems to capture the energy of a band and the crowd interacting in a live venue (albeit, an arena). Watching it really brings me back to the good times.

...Jeebus that drummer can really mash the skins tho!
