OK we feel bad about this Trash rating, because Mr. mehro obviously spends a lot of time and effort writing his mostly acoustic...

Acoustic-based indie rock so darkly intense it's almost difficult to listen to. Elliot Smith-like emotional content. Original & well...

Shoegaze band that doesn't offer much worth diving back into.

Cute confessional alt pop with some swing.

Very poppy Boston band with a horn section. Please let the girl sing more of the songs! Can be quite annoying. Too light.

Beautiful pop with some African influences (even more would be appreciated). Great voice. One album out. Check out "Shake Shake."

Derivative, predictable/copied girl pop love songs.

Indie rock with some intensity and grunge. Maybe a little too much with the noodley guitar parts.

Tight speedpunk metal. Nice use of group yells in the choruses. Some dark themes, but sense of humor too.

Angsty, driving rock/punk band with occasionally off tune vocals but decent harmonies overall.

British indie rock band that produce plodding (but not in a bad way) and occasional uptempo soundscapes with sparse singing. Definitely...

We find her spare, retro-ish folk tunes with guitar and voice a little too strange to enjoy.

Churning edgy indie rock with a few catchy hooks and rough vocals. Check out the song "Fiddleheads."

Please just let the girl do the singing! Indie pop-rock with some swirly shoegaze elements.

Catchy techno comedy music with lots of energy and samples.

Boston shoegaze band that put out 2 albums in the 1990s reunites and produces new pretty shimmering hazy indie rock.

Jingly winding guitars, poor vocals, songs way too long. Apparently they were an influential underground emo band long ago.

Acoustic guitar-driven Americana/country with touches of fiddle. Good voice, good harmonies, good writing. From the great state of...

Entertaining punk rock band whose singer transitioned from female to male which is why the newer stuff sounds different.

Competent but mediocre alternative rock/pop from a solo artist. Compositions remind us of Juliana Hatfield.
