Me and my friend have been thinking about this, who is the best artist/band around at the moment.
We came up with:
Arctic Monkeys
Haim
Primal Scream
Arcade Fire
Gaz Coombes
Daft Punk
David Bowie
Rules
1)Must have released at least an EP recently. (Rules out bands like U2)
2)Reunions don't count unless new material has been released
-
[b]Deftones[/b] Karnivool Alt-J Queens of the Stone Age Arctic Monkeys
-
My vote goes for the Foo Fighters. They're one of the most consistent bands in the industry right now. Plus, Dave Grohl seems like a really cool dude.

Slightly stoopid

There are too many but some are Sabaton, 5FDP, Raubtier (Swedish lyrics only)

Edited by Hipi07: 1/16/2014 7:26:53 AMToo many good new groups going big this year. There are various debut albums I'm really looking forward to. Stuff like Chela, Banks, Royal Blood, Superfood, Chet Faker, Honeyblood, among others. Then of course second albums from Kimbra, Flume, Tame Impala and XXYYXX are on my list. Hell, even James Blake third album, but I don't think that'll come out this year. So much good music out lately. I love it.
