Good call, very nice comp. I reckon Slingshot by Boilermaker gives Bastille a run for its money. The Julia and Shroomunion songs are great as well. You know your comp's good when Indian Summer have the 5th-best song on it.

Gila Bend - Keep Your Head Up
Eurich - Distant
Ethel Meserve - Calba's Last
Luck of Aleia - Happy Birthday
The Candyland Carcrash - Baffled on the Seventh Floor
Maya Shore - Restless Time
Hour of the Star - Rootbeer and Running Shoes
I Hate Myself - Caught in a Flood..
Kite Flying Society - Winter Solstice
Pennikurvers - Daredevil.

I'll keep you some company in this thread, my 10 ten favourites at the moment:

Saddest Landscape - Imperfect But Ours
Pianos Become The Teeth - Filial
Agesixteen - Dear Judas
Suis La Lune - Utter Silence is Fragile
Raein - Tigersuit
June Paik - Aleska
iwouldsetmyselfonfireforyou - Twelve
Aussitot Mort - Percute
Loma Prieta - Last City
Saddest Landscape - Declaring War On Nostalgia

^That is a very fine list right there, especially a fan of the iwouldsetmyselfonfireforyou, The Saddest Landscape and Suis La Lune tracks.

Nice list, Age Sixteen's Empty Nest does it for me every time. Great band.

If anyone's looking for some new **** to listen to, I still have no idea what bands were well-known in the 90s or now, but a few releases that are probably more on the obscure side that I would recommend -

The Stella Brass - Figure Eights & Heart Shapes 7''
Gila Bend - Gila Bend 7''
The Candyland Carcrash - The Candyland Carcrash 7''
Swingset in June - Demo tape
Watership Down - Watership Down 7''
Baby Harp Seal - Baby Harp Seal 7'' (the 1994 one)

That's a good, short mix. You can get all those (and about 800 other albums) at www.mediafire.com/emoisdead. That's not my account but it is something everyone that likes this kind of music needs to know about. The sister account screamoisdead is killer too.

Now it's on seven...

Go Radio's "Goodnight Moon"
Jimmy Eat World's "The Middle"
I Am Ghost's "Our Friend Lazarus Sleeps"
Taking Back Sunday's "What's It Feel Like To Be A Ghost"
Cap'n Jazz's "Olerud"
Scary Kids Scaring Kid's "Watch Me Bleed"
Panic! At The Disco's "Time to Dance"

Haha. I am getting such a kick out of this! I was actually the singer of Eldritch Anisette. And for years I only had a 7 inch that I would break out and every now and then to relive the memories.

Tonight I was sitting around with my BFF and decided to google "Eldritch Anisette." Never really thought to do it before. Why would I? This stuff if from 1997 or somesuch!

But andrew, I'm glad we made your top ten. When we existed we never really made it anywhere past Delaware, so it's nice to know we reached more fans via the internet.

Fantastic list.
"Never Meant" is an awesome Indie/Emo song.

Oh, I'd say it's the pinnacle. :) One of those songs that completely changed how I listened to music for a while.
