i like washed out. however, i can seem to get over how much of his success relies on blatant samples: http://www.whosampled.com/sample/view/12990/Washed%20Out-Feel%20It%20All%20Around_Gary%20Low-I%20Want%20You/
and the new track "Eyes Be Closed" is remarkably similar to Moby's Porcelain. you'll be hearing a mashup for show.
interesting take on the remix boom, amrit. i would agree. my band has expanded our name recognition with people remixing our stuff.
overall tho, i welcome the influx of remixes. at the end of the day it widens the scope of my library and also enables me to listen to good talent that is usually outside my taste realm.
sorry to break it to you but these are as real as it gets in these times and that's a good thing. go to rollingstone, spin, or billboard to get coverage of "real" bands.
i hate calling bands over-rated but... yeah. best coast might be the most over-rated band of 2010. i like their album but i probably won't be playing it consistently a year from now, let alone a month from now.
do the drums get that high up cuz they have a fake british accent? i understand them being on this list but..... everything everything should be flipped with them.
