So there's this band called Why?.

[PotVsKtl]

What's the issue here? Did Yoni try to steal Tollett's toffees in middle school?

[dorkfish]

This right should have been wronged years ago.

[MissingPerson]

Dare you not to read the title in an Australian accent.

That Rubber Traits video is an abortion.

I was baiting

[Hannahrain]

Still on the high quality end of abortion soundtracks, though. The hook room at my local clinic only plays Top 40.

[PotVsKtl]

One minute please, forming my new band Hook Room.

[thetello]

my personal favorite by them.

This is for Hannah, mostly: Have you noticed how much Why? has been featured recently on TAL? There must be some serious fanboys on the show's staff.

[bobert]

Great band. Saw them at Sasquatch last year where they were relegated to the 3rd stage, despite being one of the best bands on the lineup.

I have noticed. I believe Jessica Hopper still picks the music and will continue to do so until I kill her and wear her skin as a costume so it becomes my job. I hope she exfoliates.

[Courtney]

Wait, Jessica, obsessed-with-Steve-Albini-catfight Hopper? One and the same?

[Hannahrain]

Yes.

[Courtney]

Yes.

Awesome.

[TommyboyUNM]

I just downloaded Alopecia and Eskimo Snow. This shit better be impressive.

Listen to Alopecia first.

Edit: ^^^^ what Hannah said.

[Hannahrain]

Listen in alphabetical order.

[TommyboyUNM]

I decided to start with Alopecia before I popped back into this thread, mates. Thanks for looking out.

[bobert]

cheery-a cheery-e cheery-i cheery-o cheery-u

[TommyboyUNM]

After hearing the lyrics to "Good Friday," I can see why Pot likes these guys.

I like this so far. Interesting.

[spacekat]

I feel to get the full listening experience with why? one should have the lyrics in hand. It's amazing.
cLOUDEAD with Odd Nosdom and Doseone is some real good stuff too.

[IlliniQ]

Definitely Belong on the overdue indie list, with the likes of Bon Iver (gayngs doesn't count), Dodos, Wild Beasts, Antlers, Bat For Lashes, Sunset Rubdown, Sufjan Stevens, Fijuya & Miyagi, White Denim, Phantom Band, Mountain Goats, Janelle Monae (Okay it's only been a year but how could she have not been on 2011 lineup), Matthew Dear, Grinderman/Nick Cave, Joanna Newsom, Destroyer, Iron & Wine, Eluvium, The Books, Apples In Stereo, Fuck Buttons, Japandroids, Sunn 0))), Futures Of The Left, Memory Tapes, Low, Dengue Fever, Plants & Animals, Marnie Stern, Midlake, The Ike Rielly Assassination, Subtle, Califone, Casitones For The Painfully Alone, Mark Lanegan in some guise, etc., etc.

Probably 10 or so on here that played in earlier years that I've mistakenly included, but none of these acts since '08

Yes....u are on it.

[Courtney]

Matthew Dear, Midlake and Subtle have all played. But you're right, most of those are serious omissions.

[kreutz2112]

Especially Sufjan.

[PotVsKtl]

LADIES.

[Hannahrain]

I loved him as Ari Tenenbaum.

[Hannahrain]

Wait, I've been here before.
