TOP 10 ARTISTS I WANTED AN ALBUM FROM, by Merritt Martin
I heard tale of studio work, was teased with demos and was both impressed and seduced by live performances of new material from these folks. I pined for a full-length release from each of these bands/artists—something I could cuddle up to, or have my pants sufficiently rocked by. And something tells me if they'd turned out the merch, this would just be a flat-out Top 10 list.
1. Record Hop
4. St. Vincent
5. Dove Hunter
6. The Great Tyrant
7. Blood on the Moors
8. 100 Damned Guns
9. Shiny Around the Edges
10. Mission Giant

5. "These Tears Could Rust a Train"
6. They don't sound like Coldplay, Radiohead or Interpol.
7. "Barrel Riders"
8. Midlake sounds like Bread. (Bread!)
9. "Civil Warrior"
10. Will Johnson lives in Austin now.
