Shed was a pop-punk band from Redmond,Washington that consisted of some pretty swell guys. They have three albums out there, but this is the only one I have at the moment. Sooooo gooood

Everything I Am Becomes Cool, Minus Me

Sourpatch

I saw/played with these guys a while back in Olympia. They freaking rule. They are a bunch of cool kids from San Jose, CA stuck in the 90s. Female fronted vocals and a great drummer. Check 'em out

Crushin'

Harriet the Spy

Oh man I can't believe I haven't posted this yet. Harriet the Spy is an ingenious band from the 90s of Kent, OH. They sound like spastic emo mixed with a post-hardcore vibe. I'm including their Anthology plus Unfuckwithable which has a different, more Yo La Tengo indie feel to it.

Unfuckwithable 12"

Lifetime

This band isn't anything new. Lifetime has been around since the 90s making some seriously good jams in the pop punk scene. However, though I love Jersey's Best Dancer as much as the next guy, their self titled album of 2007 is giving it a serious run for its money. It's soooooooooooooo good! On my list of pop-punk jams I'll be listening to this summer, along with Rvivr's new LP ^_^

The Mean Jeans

If you thought it couldn't get any better, well then you haven't heard Mean Jeans! Even though this Portland, OR band started out as a ripoff Ramones tribute band, in my opinion they are doing and accomplishing much more than just that. Recently I saw them live at the Artistery in Portland and it completely blew me away. They make you want to live everyday as if it were summer; skateboarding, eating pizza, and drinking beer. Even though I've never been a fan of the Ramones, their influence on this band is definitely apparent, but I don't think the Ramones ever partied as hard as these guys do.



Are You Serious?

Superchunk

Superchunk is an indie rock band from North Carolina that formed in 1989. If you like Pete and Pete and living in the 90s in the summer, then this band is for you. Super feel good vibes.

Charles Bronson

Charles Bronson is a hardcore/powerviolence band from Dekalb, Illinois that existed from 1994-1997. Known for their short songs and audio clips, Charles Bronson is a very very sick band for fans of Spazz, Infest, and even The Locust.
