Check out Gym Class Heroes, though I can't remember the name of their album (I believe it's the Papercut Chronicles). They have almost a Gorrillaish feel to them. My favorite song is Cupid's Chokehold.

The Killers' Sam's Tom album is solid as well. I'm sure you know the Killers from their first album. The whole CD is pretty solid.

Plain White Tee's (or T's, not sure which) are solid as well. Top tracks are Hate (I Really Don't Like You), Hey There Deliliah and Please Don't Do This. These guys are more of an alternative feel like a Yellowcard a little bit.

Another song that I like, but haven't heard much else is "Jane Fonda" by Mickey Avalon. Not sure who I would say it sounds like, but it's pretty cool. Haven't heard anything else by them, so I don't know if the album is worth picking up or not.

Young Dubliners. I'm going to see them at The Depot in March. They're a lot of fun.

I just recently got some music from "The Barenaked Ladies". I hadn't really listened to them for a couple of years, but I really like those guys, even though they are Canucks. "For You" is my current favorite, but some other notables are "Its all been done", "If I had a millions dollars" and "Pinch me".

Well, those certainly wouldn't fit the category of recent date...

:-P

Ooops. I missed that part of the title. Can we make it fit under the "little obscure" heading?

I love Bob Dylan's stuff (despite his voice).

The Magic Numbers are a fairly new group that I like alot.
