Great Little-Known Bands

Don't expect any fancy writing or humorous one-liners this time. Thanksgiving is upon us and not only am I thankful, I'm very busy. I'm going to post a list. Not just any ordinary list, though. This list will contain bands that you probably haven't heard of. If you have, you're awesome and can be my friend. They're in no particular order so don't assume that one is better than the other without giving them all a listen.

Billie the Vision & the Dancers - Free Album Download

I Used to Wander These Streets

Billie the Vision & the Dancers have been around for a little over 4 years now and a very select lucky few have heard their music. Based out of Sweden, this ensemble's debut album I Was So Unpopular in School and Now They´re Giving Me This Beautiful Bicycle was nominated for an indie award in their home country. BV&D are not the only great band to come out of Sweden. Maybe you've heard of a few of these:

ABBA
The Cardigans
The Hives
Ace of Base
Eagle-Eye Cherry

Ring any bells? Good. I'll leave the oldies alone and bring us back into the present.

BV&D have released 4 full length albums through their own record label,
Love Will Pay the Bills. The best part about this situation is that they have made each album available on their site for free.

As a starter, I recommend listening to A Man From Argentina, Summercat and Ghost.
