None of these are likely to trouble the serious lists of the best of Noughties bands, but they are some of the best that I've heard:
- Arctic Monkeys. Energy & sharp lyrics from such a young band reminds me of the early days of The Jam.
- The Black Angels. A credible modern twist on the Velvet Underground blueprint.
- CSS. Infectious Alt-Disco from Brazil.
- The Decemberists. New discovery for me, but their recent album The Hazards of Love is a blinder.
- The Felice Brothers. Very retro Country-Rock, but brilliant song-writing.
